Author Topic: Will Catwoman Be One of the Worst Movies EVER? Jeremy Fuentes Mmmm, Dr. Pepper! Posts: 1168 From: Corpus Christi, TX United States Registered: Jan 2004 posted 04-20-2004 01:56 PM                     Yup, it sure is.  |  IP: Logged Ron Lacheur Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 650 From: British Columbia, Canada Registered: Feb 2002 posted 04-20-2004 02:04 PM                     Sorry John, no popups here.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 04-20-2004 04:13 PM                        Try using a browser that lets you turn off pop-ups.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-20-2004 04:43 PM                     What are pop-ups? Some kind of breakfast food? The only way I'd watch this movie is if Halle Barry gets naked. Since we know THAT ain't goin' ta' happen, I won't be in the audience of this one! And, about the text in that poster pic. It looks like there's a bit of travel ghost going on there, doesn't it? It practically hurts my eyes to even look at it!  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

A better policy is to not visit sites that abuse pop up methods. I can handle one pop up from a major commercial web site page. Any more than that and I may send them an e-mail flame (as well as doing the same against the company in the ad). The commercial web site operator will at least know they are pissing off people rather than gaining any positive ad response. It doesn't matter whether people have the opportunity to install a different web browser or separate software to block relentless pop ups. The practice of coding relentless pop ups just should not ever be used in the first place. A new offender I see is these Flash 7 based floating ads which obscure the web page I want to read. That's even more irritating than the typical pop up that usually pops up behind the page I requested. Spawning is probably the worst offense. For anyone who don't know what "spawning" is, that's when you close a browser window (such as a pop up ad window) and the site opens one or two or more windows in response. Such persons who use this practice in web development need to be thrown in front of the speeding traffic of an Interstate highway, with web users free to piss on the asshole's remains from an overpass. Yes, I really do feel that way about people who write spawing routines into a web site's code.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 04-20-2004 05:51 PM                        quote: Bobbi Henderson wrote: A better policy is to not visit sites that abuse pop up methods. How do I know that they abuse pop-ups if I use a browser that blocks them? Soon all browsers will block them, and pop-up advertisers will be out of luck because I'm using a browser that makes it so they get their shit ruined. quote: Bobbee Henderson also wrote: I can handle one pop up from a major commercial web site page. A major commercial web site should not have ANY pop-ups or advertisements EVER. If they do, the web site is not "major", but instead simply a "wannabe".  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Made for a interesting atmosphere at the film shoot, sort of... And drifting off topic again...with the original Mozilla browser and now Firefox, I've all but forgotten what a pop-up is.  |  IP: Logged Pravin Ratnam Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 844 From: Atlanta, GA,USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 04-21-2004 01:31 AM                     I was hoping that this was all a big joke when i saw these pictures a few months ago. unfortuately it doesnt seem to be photoshopped.  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 04-21-2004 01:57 AM                        quote: Adam Martin I wonder how many Imax theatres are gonna get suckered into this one. I hadn't even heard of the movie until the DMR press release was issued. That can't be a good thing. I'm pretty sure that we're lined up to play this. I hadn't seen the pictures or the costume until just now and I, too, hadn't even heard ANYTHING about it until the DMR press release. I wasn't looking forward to it, and now I'm even further from looking foward to it ... The only thing good about this in IMAX is ... at least we're playing SOMETHING in IMAX. We tend to go on hiatus when there's no new product, and we IMAX staff have to make up hours working 35mm shifts (not so bad) or on the floor (no, no, No, NO, NOOOOOOO)!  |  IP: Logged
