Not being a film handler myself, but interested in film projection and quality film presentation, I generally just ask dumb-ass outsider questions that probably cause much rolling of eyes and teeth gnashing amongst many here. I also let everyone know on a regular basis how the local Regal and Cinemark are doing ( [Roll Eyes] [Wink] ). I used to make lots of posts that were just comments on other people's posts (kind of like this one) but I try to keep that to a minimum now. [sleep]

I came up with the name "Filmguard"

I designed that logo you see in the upper left corner of your browser.

I designed da buttons and even wrote da code that makes them turn red when you mouse over them.

I designed da logo on da front page.

I make people laugh.

I kick people's ass.

I am phiggidy phat.

What do I contribute? Let's see:

I like to get on my soap box from time to time so I can whine about lots of different issues (like bringing back 5/70mm production, the marketing lies in shooting movies on videotape, DTS vs. Dolby Digital vs. SDDS, etc.). Sometimes I gripe about movie issues only I would care about -like the overuse of the font Trajan in movie titles!

Sometimes I might say something funny, or stupid, or both.

On occaision, I'll post some cool artwork. Or even redesign the look of the FilmGuard bottle!

Hey Joe, don't forget the favicon? in the address bar. I really disliked this site until it had that little FT in the address bar. [Smile]

As for me, well I have no expert knowledge on any subject and the things that I do know, noone cares about. I think that my best contribution so far was this thread.

Plus, I tend to be an easy target to make fun of so I guess that makes people laugh.

I'm here to meet guys [Razz] , bother the [bs] out of some of you [Big Grin] , and close threads sometimes.

I USED to contribute mostly in the Ground Level, Trailer/Print info, Reviews, and Yak but being out of a theater for the moment I only post a small amount in anything but Yak. Man, I really do miss managing a theater! [Frown]

I also READ about all the projection "stuff" but it doesn't stay with me long, I can thread the damn things without scratching any film and tend to be very lucky with everything running ok but...yeah...that's about it. JK! Kinda... [Big Grin]

Oh yeah, I'm also here to be Chipper and keep everyone from fighting, I'm one of the few active women/girls/chicks/chicken heads/biatches (whatever floats your boat), and I tend to use a mass amount of smilies! [beer]

Basically thats all I do to contribute.

Nah, I don't think so Chris. I think you had a lot of good things to say in a lot of threads. And I sincerely respect you for that.

Me, not much. Ask an occasional question, quietly read threads and laugh at others comments.

I post an occasional question, read many other posts just to learn more about film, laugh at Phil's snide remarks, and get to know the film community. This is a business I'd love to remain in so getting to know who is really out there has been great.

What I haven't contributed: a picture of myself! [Smile]
