Chavez Film God Posts: 2153 From: Martinez, CA USA Registered: Aug 2003 posted 10-12-2010 06:52 AM                       He was a heck of a guy, lived life large and did some fine work. I did work with him from time to time over the years. I notice we have an afterlife category. He with his bizarre sense of humor would appreciate being mentioned there.  |  IP: Logged Claude S.

(Any chance for a link to that thread?) Hopefully to even meet him in person:( I always enjoyed and will miss his discussions in the chat room. I guess visiting Texas, meeting Brad and seeing a movie in his theatrette is still possible and on my bucket list.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-12-2010 07:43 PM                     A photo of Phil in a booth. Two of Phil's ferrets. And some of the many visitors to the coveted house on the hill.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-12-2010 07:50 PM                     There are other pics buried on the forums somewhere.  |  IP: Logged Manny Knowles "What are these things and WHY are they BLUE???"

RIP buddy.... you will be missed around here...  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-12-2010 08:34 PM                     Funny thing is I think this image was always Phil's favorite. Who else would've come to a Halloween party full of movie people dressed as a "video" pirate? (Note the camcorder in his hand.) Then again, he did like this pic a lot too. We offered several times to finish the install of Phil's screening room in his house at no charge since his health was up and down, but he wanted to do it all by himself. It would've been a cool setup. Unfortunately, I don't think he ever got to run a movie in it.  |  IP: Logged
