Can anyone translate what he is saying when he's not being an ass?

Jason, what are you talking about?
Posted by Michael Schaffer (Member # 1204) on 01-11-2005, 12:44 AM:
Small wonder. The man speaks in a provincial Austrian dialect. Basically he says at the beginning, "well, yesterday they released this funny little song which I can't get out my head anymore" and in the middle when he grabs the LP, "I really can't get that music out of my head anymore, but what can I do? I have to hammer it out of my head somehow. Well, let's see what is on this one".
The song with the yodel intro is the work of this young lady who is a Rumanian pop star.
On the PC, you need the DivX codec to properly view the video.

HERE is the video Michael wants you to see. It is 5.3 MB and you don't have to sift though the fake boob girl's site to get to it.
Also Michael, I can't believe that you forgot the BOY BAND VERSION of the same song.

in regards of music: the most pieces of crap come from Germany.
Posted by Jeremy Jorgenson (Member # 2989) on 06-26-2005, 04:25 PM:
Yeah, you know... Bach, Beethoven, Wagner... with crap like that in Germany's history, it's no wonder that David Hasselhoff is so popular there!
Posted by Dieter Depypere (Member # 3184) on 06-27-2005, 03:06 AM:
in fact, I didn't mean classic music - I meant the modern one like Stefan Raab, Helge Schneider & stuff like that.
In earlier days (when I was young) music was a lot better.

Posted by Michael Schaffer (Member # 1204) on 06-27-2005, 04:51 AM:
Raab und Schneider are more comedians than musicians, you can't really count them. But they suck massively anyway. Things just haven't been the same since Falco died.
What a negative development:
From Beethoven
to Bohlen
I keep hearing that Hasselhoff is extremely popular in Germany, but I can not confirm that rumor. He may have a certain following among teenies, but I have never heard any of his music or know anyone who listens to it.
Baywatch on the other hand was extremely popular. I guess that must have been because it is so nice to see people helping each other. I don't think it had anything to do with all those models in swimming suits.

Jim, your post of the "Impatient child" reminds me of the many times I have smashed my keyboards into a shitload of pieces in frustration! I go thru more keyboards than Carter has pills. I use wireless keyboards since I HATE to be tied down... Plus they are much easier to throw/smash.
I always keep a supply of new keyboards in my house. Every now and then, during house cleaning, I find a "lost" key-top while I vacuum. Ah yes, fond memories! HA!.
While I don't have the patience of that kid, or yell back at the monitor, I do get orgasmic pleasure in smashing the hell out of my keyboards, or DVD player, or film scanner, etc... when they act up!

Where is Hulk Hogan and Jake "the Snake" Roberts? Where do you think? They're in a retirement home. Come on, Chris, get with the times. This is the new generation of WWE wrestlers. Everybody knows that Umaga is the future of professional wrestling!
Speaking of Umaga, he has a match this Sunday on Pay-Per-View against the 16-time World Champion, "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair. The scary part, I bet Umaga wins. But then again, even I could beat Ric Flair. That guy's like 80 years old!
By the way, it's WWE, not WWF. Just like their ad campaign a few years back said, get the "F" out!

WWE wrestler Shawn Michaels gets attacked by a psychotic fan in Belfast, Northern Ireland
Apparently, the fan was pissed at Shawn Michaels because of the whole Bret Hart/Montreal screwjob incident that happened in 1997. Dude, that was 9 years ago! Get over it! Some people take wrestling WAY too seriously! It's just entertainment!
Posted by Chris Hipp (Member # 1788) on 04-29-2006, 06:43 PM:

Yes, Chris, you told me about that kid so many times. I don't take wrestling too seriously. I know it's fake/scripted/predetermined or whatever you wanna call it. I don't get pissed off when my favorite wrestler loses. I could care less who wins and loses. I could care less who the champion is. I watch it for the entertainment and spectacle. I know they're just performers doing their job. I don't take it serious like all those idiots that whine and cry about Montreal. It's been 9 years! Get over it, you crybabies! By the way, I'm a fan of Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart. I could care less who screwed who.

Well, shucks, I'll have to re-render it. I actually tried Sorenson first, but wasn't happy with the compression artifacts. What flavor of Sorenson, Joe? There's several different presets. I'm outputting from AE 6.5.

It may be nice the way it is, but if you want a bigger audience you'll need a better and more accessible codec. This is something most Windows users fail to comprehend.

"Very Impressive" Tim--looks very professional and hi-tech, modern & appropriate. [Both links ran well in "real", but the first had presentation framing, and the offer to run in another program as well, but when I clicked on it Quicktime requested I download more files to run it. I accepted, and the download took only avout 5 seconds, but was followed by notice of "a problem" and had to close.

It is Quicktime! Realvideo sucks. And it's not my problem if your internet connection is too wimpy to handle a 35 MB file. Time to get broadband. Dial-up is only for old people. It's nearly 15 miutes long, so that's quite reasonable... unless presentation means nothing to you.

I can't tell you how great the video is because the two words that most accurately describe it have been BANNED from the site and are no longer available for use. Try this: start the download, go take a shit. By the time you flush the toilet you could have downloaded it 45 times over with your insanely fast BBB! But of course since you have a teeny tiny, ummm, hard drive you might not have 34MB of free space.
I find it funny that anyone equates 34MB with "big". Time to upgrade from that Windows 3.11 you've been using!

The following video is a 1hr 40 mins presentation by the project manager for the Mars Rover mission.

Revenge of the automatic bollards. I don't recognise the location, but from the markings on the bus (e.g. 'centre' spelt like that), the double yellow lines and the fact that the vehicles are right-hand drive, I guess it was shot somewhere in the UK. The most satisfying bit is the direct hit on the Islington Tractor,* the driver of which was being so stupendously moronic as to actually acccelerate through the huge neon 'no entry' signs and into the rising bollard.
* Islington (or sometimes Chelsea) Tractor - British derogatory slang for SUV. Islington is an upscale suburb of North London, hence the implication that any city dweller who feels the need to own an SUV has more money than sense.

So, let me make sure I got this straight. It's okay for Phil Hill to make homosexual comments about other FT members. But, if I do it, that makes me a jerk. OK, I see how it is. BTW, you're telling me to grow up? What are you, like in your 40s? I've read a lot of your posts, and you seem like you're a lot more immature than me. So, next time you wanna tell someone they're insulting and degrading, why don't you look in the mirror?

Hi all
It has been reported today in the papers that the copies of video of Steve Irwins death have been destroyed and that the original has been handed back to his widow, probably to also be destroyed.
However just as in the Saddam Hussein execution a copy has been leaked onto Youtube.
Here is the link. WARNING: Not for those that are squeamish about such things.

Not to come across as a killjoy here in this thread, but this story below came up in our local newspaper today:
Website
quote:
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Alongside the basic new year's resolutions such as losing weight and getting your finances in order, vow to keep your personal computer fast and clean this year. That includes keeping your personal information from spreading to others from your computer.
If you got a new computer over the holidays, the last thing you want is for viruses to attack it. Brian Grayek, vice president of threat content at software company CA (formerly known as Computer Associates) offers the following tips on keeping your computer (and yourself) safe this year:
If you view videos from sites such as YouTube, make sure you're using a firewall and an antivirus program. According to Grayek, "Video files are fair game for hackers." The same goes for multiplayer or virtual world games such as Warcraft and Second Life. If you're playing a game on a file-sharing network, you must protect yourself.
In fact, you should have a combination of firewalls and antivirus programs in place for a number of eventualities. If you're using a broadband Internet connection, a firewall is a must -- your computer is online whenever it's turned on (even if you're not using any Internet applications).
Make sure your antivirus software is up to date. Out-of-date antivirus programs are the No. 1 reason PCs get viruses. Many programs have auto-update features -- enable them so you don't have to worry about monitoring the software yourself.
Spam is still a huge problem -- 90% of all e-mail is spam. Don't click on links claiming to be from your bank -- they're not. And don't take stock advice that comes into your inbox.
Don't share personal information on the Internet. If you use social networking sites such as Friendster, MySpace, Facebook or LinkedIn, never include your Social Security number, address, phone number, birthday or other information in your profile.
Have to testify that this happened to me when I was in the Photobucket site seeing picts of my friends trip to Europe. One page was loaded with viruses where my AV program had fits galore in destroying them all.
..just a concerning post for all of us members to be aware of..

That's awesome, Richard.
My brother and his wife brought that game over for our New Years party, and we had fun playing it. Having never played the guitar, I'm barely a beginner, but I managed to get though Rock This Town with a pretty decent score for a first timer.
Posted by Monte L Fullmer (Member # 2797) on 01-15-2007, 01:45 PM:
Yep. Great guitar rift from GNR, Richard. Daughter got Guitar Hero for christmas and I had to zing through a few rifts as well to see how I can do - stumbled though them, but still had fun.
But, if you really want a workout..do some DDR for a half hour or so on PS2.
Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 01-16-2007, 05:05 AM:
I don't understand why they'd take down the Bond trailers...who asked them to...United Artists? Sony? Why? Did they think that someone might see them and go...hey, I might go buy those dvd's and make them some money for nothing?
There's something wrong with their thinking.

That way this thread can remain as more of a special thread for vid links.. - just another form of organization.

Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 01-28-2007, 03:39 PM:
I HATE landings...love the take-offs but cannot to this day stand landings... a few I've been on have seemed they must have landed like those last two.
My palms are sweating just from watching them.
Actually, flying with my wife works quite well as she hates take-offs but doesn't mind landings at all. Together we help each other out to 'survive' them.
Posted by Adam Martin (Member # 641) on 01-28-2007, 05:36 PM:
I enjoy landings. You fly low for a long enough period of time to see a lot of the landscape. I like looking for theaters and drive-ins.
When landing in Phoenix, it's usually bumpy and you can see the Scottsdale 6 Drive-In on the right side of the plane. In Las Vegas, it's usually bumpy and you can see the Henderson Cinedomes on the left when landing and on the right when taking off. In Albuquerque, you can see the Sunset Drive-In. In San Diego, you fly close enough to downtown to see people in the buildings when landing. At Chicago Midway, well ... you can't see any theaters, but there's always a good chance you'll end up on 55th Street!
Posted by Phil Hill (Member # 371) on 01-28-2007, 05:54 PM:
I agree with Adam...I always like to look at the local landscape when landing and taking off from any airport...been to more than a couple hundred worldwide.
BUT! Even though I've flow from and returned to Burbank airport many, many times, I ALWAYS still get nervous when we land on that short 5800ft runway 8. I wonder if THIS will be the time we overshoot the end and wind up on street Hollywood Way or the gas station ...Like several others.
Posted by Will Kutler (Member # 770) on 01-28-2007, 08:26 PM:
Worst landing I ever saw in person occured at Duxford Air Museum in England.
My friend and I took a visit on our day off, which happened to be an EXTREMELY windy day! For whatever reason the Old Flying Machining Company decided to fly their Spitfire. The wind was sooo strong that it was bouncing that plane around like a rag doll. And the pilot had to make several go-around attempts at landing.
So, on the final attempt the pilot touched down, caught the left wingtip in the ground and did a 90 degree pivot. This pivot put the plane on a direct path towards my friend and I, who were standing on the spectators side of the spectators barrier and right next to where a PBY Catalina was parked.
Both my friend and I had 35mm SLR cameras, but neither of us had motor drives. So we were both snapping as we started running. Luckily, between the both of us our simultaneous shutterbugging captured the entire sequence of events.
I wish I could scan and post those pics.
Also, a friend just sent me a link to this video "The Assumption Song" Rated R. Enjoy!!

That 777 was just a flight test landing using one of the first 777's. Note that it does not have any airline insignia on the side. For a real bad x-wind landing go to THIS site and click on the 2nd one down. Thats a dam good pilot! The B-52 crash is also quite interesting as is the follow up investigation.

Perhaps now is the time Kodak should start listening to my pitch I jokingly made a few years back of making self-destructing prints. Essentially, prints that were only durable enough to be ran 100 times. This would save a TON of money in print shipping costs to the industry. Instead, when the movie was finished with it's run, the projectionist could just clamp the print, carry it to the roof, take the clamps off, pop the center ring and throw the latest Hollywood piece of crap into the dumpster where it belongs!

Screw Pet Spas. I've found that my home dishwasher does and excellent job at washing our cats. You can even hang some jet dry in there for a nice and shiny coat. And there's enough room to wash all of the cats at once, which is important since the other cats would be wise to you after the first cat. Just remember to stand aside before you release the latch on the door.
I admire the How stuff works vid's attempt, though it seems dumbed down tremendously. And the detailing is in the wrong place. Why mention that it uses a 4k bulb, and not mention how the shutter and intermittant work to cause the picture to "move"? You don't have to explain the finer parts of the Geneva Movement, but more like how the intermittant pulls down the film frame by frame, and stops long enough for the shutter to expose the light. Oh well, who cares why the damned thing clicks, just that it moves film and shines a light through it. Remember that Coke Refreshing Filmakers clip a few years back with the Coke bottle 9as the lens), a flash light,and a bike wheel (as the film transport)? I tried that. I just end up with mangled film, and a tangled bike. Coke. (Btw. Just kidding about the tried part, I'm in a bit of a humor tonight.)

This from today's showbizdata.com:
VIACOM SUES GOOGLE, YOUTUBE FOR $1 BILLION
Viacom today (Tuesday) filed a $1-billion lawsuit against Google and its YouTube video-sharing subsidiary, alleging "massive intentional copyright infringement." The company also asked the court to issue an injunction to prevent YouTube users from uploading other copyrighted material. Viacom owns Paramount and DreamWorks film studios and such cable channels as MTV, Nickelodeon, BET, and Comedy Central. It was not immediately known whether Viacom had attempted to persuade other media companies to join its legal attack. The company's corporate parent is National Amusements Inc., which also controls CBS, Inc., which is engaged in ongoing negotiations with YouTube and Google. Last month Viacom demanded that YouTube remove more than 100,000 clips of Viacom's copyrighted programming.

I have not even once looked into German porn, but they censor violent things.

I was relaxing on the front patio sipping a cool glass of ice water and conversing about quantum physics and Celtic history with my child prodigy classmate, Muffy. A brilliant, orange conflagration danced in the corner of my eye, immediately catching my attention. I put down my cool drink and walked toward the warm glow in the distance. When I opened the front screen door, the building across the street disappeared into a ball of spontaneous combustion. Startled, I informed Muffy, "one of the houses in the neighborhood is on fire! And we have more spring flowers in bloom. I can count them. See? Bloom. Bloom. Bloom. Bloom."

Will Ferrell sucked in this too! I turned it off after about 60 seconds of that stupid crap.
It sort of reminds me of America's Funniest Home Videos. At the end of every show they pick 3 clips for that $10,000 prize. There is always a clip of someone getting hurt (because that is deemed funny), then there is a clip of something reasonably funny (often this is an animal clip), then the third clip is always something of a baby. The baby can be spitting up milk or smiling as it falls off of a chair 12 inches to the ground, or just taking a shit in it's diapers. What happens? The baby wins EVERY time! And that winning clip is just about as funny as that useless Will Ferrell clip with the baby landlord above.

Well, if you take a regular machine and crank it up to 30fps, I bet it'd be a bit more noiser than normal. Plus, that film stock is twice as wide as you're accustomed to.
That's quite the big ribbon of film zipping though that Norelco. All of the machines that I've seen 70mm run though has always been a bit louder than the 35mm counterparts..
Think this guy's booth lesson is up to speed? He can prevent tons of problems if he installed a wrap detector on his platter.

And the comments to turn off sound, projector, lights, and dowser are easily handled by having an automation that doesn't suck (ie one that, when it detects a failure, it does those things for you and alerts you that something is wrong).

RHPS - what a midnite show to be had!!
First time I ran RHPS is in the fall of 1976 as a regular feature. No one ever heard of it and it lasted a week at our theatre due to small attendence figures. But it was definitely a different kind of film to present...and the music was definitely catchy to listen to.
The film took just the following year to become a midnight show cult classic..and so it goes....
"Shock Treatment" was one of those 'we'll forget this movie right off' -
Now the one that I wished would have also turned into a cult classic was "Phantom of the Paradise" - following on the same horror type story as did RHPS .. also released by 20th-FOX.
Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 05-15-2007, 08:32 AM:
Ha! Monte...somehow I knew you'd get a kick out of that.
Agree with Shock(ing) Treatment though. Good music but shit story sank it before it set sail. That trailer tells it all...one song in the trailer?
One manager I worked for insisted we run Shock first as he wanted intermission trade and he was sure everyone'd leave if we ran RHPS first. Probably wasn't too far wrong, although a sequel preceding and original in a double feature didn't go down too well with me.
Posted by Monte L Fullmer (Member # 2797) on 05-15-2007, 02:38 PM:
(...the many pounds of soaked rice from the "rain sequence" to clean up off the floor afterwards, the gobs of toast, finding a good dozen decks of playing cards, newspapers .... )
But the fun of it all was the character contests we would have before each wknd showing-prizes, gifts, free movie tickets..et.al. .. and I'd have a spotlight on all of the contestants that I would shine on them as they were announced...
..in all due to it all, I actually had tons of fun with RHPS.
Only snafu I had with RHPS that a wet splice broke during the middle of the "Time Warp" sequence and the stage was packed with dancers - splice broke in the trap and gate area - did the fastest rethread I've ever done..

Around 1974 I was at the Grove Drive-In as an 8 year old child and they had on a special family show. On the bill was a chestnut of a short film featuring some of the greats of UK comedy of the middle of last century. In 1979 they remade the short including Arthur Lowe, Eric Sykes and others. I can't find the original, but Eric Sykes directed them both so they're pretty similar.
I've never forgotten it...it's brilliance in simplicity.

Yes, the first time I heard Borge's "Phonetic Punctuation" was in the early 60's on a comedy record that he had made..and that was the funniest thing to hear.
One has to check out his original story in this segment on YouTube...then one has to chek out his followup. being the Inflationary Language plus, watchin all of Borge's videos in this segment. Classic viewing.
EDIT: Paul Pott's performance of "Nessun Dorma" from "Turnadot" by Puccini was absolutely fantastic! Makes you hope that Pavarotti gave him applause as well.- Monte

One thing that always struck me funny was, at the end of the the "VP" movie when the police set up that roadblock to stop that Challenger with those two big CAT's where after the car went head on into those CATS, and the rear end swung upwards, the tail end of the car is a Camaro, not a Challenger.
If I remember right, for the "PG" version of that double release that FOX did (to get "VP" down to a "PG" from it's original "R"), was to take out the "girl on the HONDA motorcycle" scene all together.

"Defying Gravity"...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBGEafGEKFA
And (SPOILER WARNING IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE BROADWAY SHOW YET AND INTEND TO... DO NOT WATCH THIS ONE!) This is a neat story...
Link Here
quote:
Idina Menzel was injured during the end of a matinee performance in Wicked on January 8th. She was set to leave the musical after the matinee performance on January 9th. She was no longer able to perform her final performances.
A musical spokesperson told Playbill On-Line, Yesterday at the matinee during the melting sequence, (the famous melting scene of the Wicked Witch) which comes very late in the show, theres a trap door that opens on the stage floor. An elevated platform is exposed, just underneath the stage floor. Idina usually steps onto that platform and is lowered beneath the stage. At yesterdays performance the elevator had already partially descended, so when Idina stepped forward, she fell and hit her side. The show was stopped, and the house curtain was lowered. An announcement was made to see if there were doctors in the house, and people did rush backstage. An ambulance came and took Idina to the hospital. During that time, Shoshana Bean, Idinas standby, quickly got into green make-up and costume and completed the performance.
At the curtain calls, Joey McIntyre spoke to the audience and further explained the situation, and said Idina would be ok.
Idina was taken out of the theater on a stretcher still in her green makeup. At the hospital, x-rays were taken and it was discovered that she cracked one of her lower ribs. Because of the injury, Elphaba standby, Shoshana Bean, played the Saturday evening performance as well as the Sunday matinee. Menzel was scheduled to appear at the curtain call of the Sunday matinee to officially end her run.
Here's her surprise return appearance during the finale...

Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 12-17-2007, 10:42 PM:
For some reason I watched Beetlejuice in the theaters and everyone was laughing their asses off during that scene, as if something about it were humorous. Actually I think the movie itself was supposed to be funny since people kept referring to Michael Keaton as a "comedian". That scene nor any other part of the movie was funny. I think you have to be "special" in order to appreciate it, kind of like those folks who liked Michael Clayton.

and usually those Osrams are pretty nasty when they do blow. Luckilly, it was only a 2k bulb that popped on him. Can you imagine if a 6k let go around them?
Course, as black as it was, I bet it had mega hours on it why it blew so easilly due to the quartz was horribly weakened unless the anode seal was also weak causing it to go like it did.
He was lucky (and the other kid too to not get hit with any shards) to suffer such small injuries from the quartz shards, but I bet those shards have embedded themselves in pretty deep in itself..
Now, this is heaven working in this "box" with those Cinemeccanicas (which I would say they were V-8's but could be 9's or 10's ..) ..bout as idiotic as popping a bulb with no cover I would say when striking up carbons with the lamphouse door opened esp. as big as those rods are - which I would say they'd be 11mm positives - Monte

It looks to me like they leave their bulbs in the lamphouse perhaps a bit too long. Did you see how dark that thing was? Might as well not even shine light on the screen.

Jon,
I used Light-O-Rama for the controls. This year I had 64 channels but only ended up using 58 since bad weather prevented me from putting up the rest of the lights.
Setup of the outdoor stuff took a few days. Programming on the other hand took more time then I had expected or had to offer. "Sandstorm" took about 12 hours; and the two other songs about 6 hours each.

Wow, Phil, what a nostalgic turn that was! I remember Cal's commercials from my childhood and that tune just took me back. As a kid, I never understood why his "dog" Spot was never a dog. And I thought they were saying "pussy cow" instead of "go see Cal" (and looking through the comments on that video, I can see I wasn't the only one! Ha!), probably because I thought the elephant he was riding was a cow? I don't friggin' know. Ah, the innocence of youth! Thanks for that!

That is an outdoor traveling cinema in Thailand; one of many in that country. The projector is a Russian CX1000. Many of their rigs have a dual 2000 foot feed reel so they can prep the next reel.....hey it is entertainment for the masses When I was there a few years ago I saw examples of world class SFX multiplexes to the traveling cinemas....something for everybody....wai.

Tim,
there are plenty of Century ( and many clones ) and Simplex doing overseas work For many years Simplex was common in the Phillipines sitting on RCA Photophone soundheads.
With so few options for Digital Cinema Appoved projectors you should be "almost" busy worldwide
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 04-02-2008, 10:34 AM:
Well back in college I was working a venue that had one of the projectors break and there wasn't funding to fix the second projector, so I built a platter out of plywood, masonite decks, inverted ceiling fan motors, some spare rollers, minor electrical circuits and the center ring was a 2000' can. It wasn't sturdy enough to set a splicer on the side of it and punch downward, but it also didn't damage any film from what I could tell. So like John, they get no credit from me.
Posted by David Stambaugh (Member # 1102) on 04-02-2008, 10:51 AM:
What Monte said. There's a whole other world out there. Although what they're doing goes against everything this forum stands for, I can't help but admire their, uh, ingenuity in dealing with their limited training and the cards they've been dealt. I've watched that video 3 times now and it's very entertaining, in a "that's so wrong but I understand it anyway" kind of way. Maybe their prime directive is "Keep the projector running and something on the screen at all times no matter what!" to them. They put on a show!
Posted by Scott Norwood (Member # 30) on 04-02-2008, 11:02 AM:
At minimum (if they aren't going to get a second projector, platter, or double-MUT), they should run 6000' reels and stop between them. At least that way, most films could be run with a single intermission, and without destroying the prints.
This is why distributors need to inspect prints and charge for damage. If this actually happened, these guys would either do the job right or get out of the business.

Well of course they should! Duh! Everyone here can see that. Sorry Scott, their reality is different from ours!
Posted by Richard Fowler (Member # 893) on 04-02-2008, 11:48 AM:
Let us talk about Universal bases still in use in parts of the USA...that is film done out of date Most of the prints they use are circulated around the country and they run them out of the film cases. There are some users of one hour reels, large reel transports....and two projector changeovers but the local economics set the factors
Their reality is actually nice......
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 04-02-2008, 12:43 PM:
I am surprised they didn't cut the leaders off so they wouldn't have to watch them run through the projector.
In the video they try to frame on the incoming reel and run out of play, so they have to rack the framing all the way around. Since that alters the loop sizes, even if they did have the machine threaded right in the first place, everything else they run the rest of the night will be scratched by the projector (unless they happen to manage to misframe in reverse).
But hey, this is why the studios won't release their vault prints to platter houses...because REEL TO REEL houses are PERFECT and take FAR better care of the film! ![[Moon]](graemlins/moon.gif)

10 most insane "sports"
quote:
#10.
The Cooper's Hill Cheese Rolling and Wake
Where: A small corner of the British Isles that time and genetics forgot.
What is it?
It involves up to 20 competitors chasing a block of cheese down a hill. No, really.
The competitors climb up to the top of the almost-impossibly steep Cooper's Hill and chase a large not-quite-round wheel of double Gloucester cheese down to the bottom. The winner is the first person over the line at the bottom of the slope, but theoretically, the winner is supposed to be the person who catches the cheese. The cheese, which is given a one-second head start, reaches speeds in excess of 70 miles an hour, so unless a competitor is the T-1000, or has managed to smuggle a motorcycle to the top of the hill, it's not gonna happen.
Terrible injuries, however, are common.
Origins:
No one quite knows when the game started, but it is at least 200 years old, though some say it goes back further and was part of a pagan healing ritual. Apparently to pagans, healing rituals meant hurting yourself really badly.
Interesting fact:
After the final race, candy is thrown down the hill for a children' 'scramble.' This has been attacked by children' charities as being highly dangerous, but has been praised by almost everyone else as being very funny.
It goes on to other sports, but don't miss the video of the cheese roll.

The second video is a about people coming up with an idea about a film they want to make. So it turns out that their good idea for a film is a film of them coming up with the "good" idea for a film. I'm a 100% they used a digital camera to make this, so there is no film. And there is absolutely nothing about tech, so I have no clue why they decided to call themselves Film Tech.

This HAS to be that theater in Watseka, IL !
I don't have a problem with wooden platforms.. in many NEW large plexs... Cinemark and Century have used wooden platforms but are carpeted or tiled and you'd never know they are made of wood. In earthquake(Remember plate pectonics Tim!) prone areas wood is actually the prefered structural material because its far more reslilient. However, there are no safety railings... just a front handrail to hold onto that wouldn't go over to well in SLC. You wouldn't be allowed to open and they'd make you put railings all around that platform. Also if you watch you'll notice that the Lume-Ex is not directly connected to the exhaust line... the exhaust line is hanging about 3 to 4" above the top of the Lume-Ex. Bulb life there has to suck! A lamp explosion could take out someone's eye if they were standing near it and she happened to blow... I'd be willing to bet that there is no motor cover on that RCA sound head. Heck one of hiz employees may even end up like the guy in Wil's picture! One can only hope that the "Little Brains" learn quickly to see through this guy and eventually just let the place go up in flames! This guy deserves it. His type is the one of the main reasons that movie theaters are going into decay so very quickly.

Safety and Handling Procedures - Ummm, yeah. Goggles. Lisa, who clearly flunked kindergarten, proves why she needs them.
Violent Disturbances - I'd be pissed if I were in a theater this tacky and gaudy, too!
Horseplay - The assistant manager is such a swell guy. He cares so much about Cinemark.
Accidents - Falling down at a Cinemark theater = instant paralysis.
Box Office Robbery - Are Randy and Lisa the only employees at this theater? Why don't they know the manager's name? Is the turnover in management really that high?
Manager's Office Robbery - I'm amazed they were there to steal money instead of that fabulous projection equipment. You simply can't do any better than Speco platters and what looks like CFS lamphouses.
Banking Procedures - What theater does their own bank deposits? That's what armored car companies are for! I sure hope Cinemark reimbursed those two for their mileage.
Re-entry After Closing - This theater sure does attract a lot of robbers and other hooligans.
I really REALLY want to spoof all of these videos.

I used to have so many issues whenever I watched these...like the horseplay one. They are flinging suds at each other at the sink. There is a water trigger nozzle (for rensing) within a foot of them and yet they insist on flinging suds. With MY crew, the nozzle would be grabbed and the other one gets a blast of water IN THEIR FACE.
Then one would get the big white ice shovel and start pounding the other one with it.
The ushers would be vandalizing the standees in real life.
In the bank deposit one, I loved the code-name for the deposit run: Let's go to Grand-mas' house.
I think these videos were shot in McKinney, Texas.

Yeah, I love that one! A manager comes down and asks an employee to go to Grandma's house immediately. Do they have the same grandma? If so, isn't that nepotism in the work place? Is grandma really likely to still be awake at that late hour? It's not hard to figure out that they're up to something fishy, most likely a hot make-out session.

At my old theater since there was a deposit box in the mall we were in, they used to just drop the deposits there but if it was mid-day the person doing the drop would usually say to another manager "Lets go for a walk" or something similar.
One day, a staff member said "Do the managers like walking around the mall or something?" Even his best friend (who wasn't very bright) told him "Dude, that was really dumb."

Projectionist strikes arc lamp
I shot this in 2005 on 16mm. It's part of a film that I'm working on, but which has (literally) sat on the shelf in a half-edited state for two years due to lack of time to finish it.

Does everyone already know that YouTube preserves stereo audio in uploaded videos. If a video is not playing in stereo, and a stereo version exists, you can usually get the stereo version by adding "&fmt=18" to the end of the url. This also gets higher-quality video if available.
Phil's "Jeepster" in stereo (unfortunately the audio sounds like it's been through several iterations of lossy compression)
YouTube used to encode everything as Flash video with MP3 audio. If you uploaded in Flash format (.flv) and were very careful about limiting the total average bitrate of a file to a max of 350kbps, their servers would accept 128kbps stereo MP3 audio without re-encoding it. That trick left very little bandwidth for the video though.
Recently YT switched to encoding in MP4 or H.264 video (I forget which or maybe they're the same thing) and AAC-LC audio. It appears that they re-encode every upload, no matter what format or bitrate the file may be in, so if you upload a file with uncompressed PCM audio (CD quality), it will only get encoded once. If you want the best quality audio, it makes no sense to encode it yourself with some type of lossy compression, then hand it to YT who will then re-encode it, causing degraded sound. (Downside: This makes the size of the uploaded files much larger)
Also, in my experience it may take as long as 24 hours for the HQ stereo version to become available. So if you aren't getting stereo on the initial upload, wait a while and try the "&fmt=18" trick again later.
Example of a CD-quality PCM upload that's been re-encoded by YT with AAC at approx. 128kbps: I'm Your Boogie Man - KC and The Sunshine Band I went to a little extra work on this one to declick it and applied some mild EQ.
Please, nobody make fun of me. Making these videos is just a hobby and I don't necessarily like all of this music. Maybe I do. Maybe I don't.

Thanks for the tip, David! I'll use that in future links...it sounds soooo much better!
Question: What happens if there is no stereo version available? Does it still play but in mono without crashing?
Posted by Chris Slycord (Member # 4239) on 06-25-2008, 01:50 PM:
AFAIK, adding that part to the link just lets it play in the highest quality that youtube has for that video. So I would assume if the highest quality version is mono, it'll play mono.

A serious electrical accident...watch closely from about 1:00 - 1:25
ARC FLASH INCIDENT
This is a chilling reminder of how dangerous electricity can be.
The tech was "racking in" a circuit breaker after maintenance. It was not racking properly (look closely and you'll see him cranking one direction, then another,, then back again.)
An expert from another website speculated that the cause of the explosion was the "primary contact fingers" were misaligned and the force of the tech trying to rack it in caused them to touch and short out.
This, for me, is way to similar to an actual accident I was witness to, where and electrician was fried by 12,000 volts in a similar set-up. That poor soul was literally a blue fireball for far too long until the power was cut off. It haunts me to this day.
Posted by David Stambaugh (Member # 1102) on 06-25-2008, 02:45 PM:
The "&fmt=18" trick seems to always work. If no stereo version exists, you'll just get mono.

Scott, those weird interlacing artifacts are because you didn't de-interlace it before uploading to Youtube. Since Youtube is professional quality, it ONLY works in progressive scan. Professionals don't use interlace! Ask Youtube!
Also, what sound format was the audio in whatever file you uploaded in? It was probably not a supported codec.

Posted by Scott Norwood (Member # 30) on 06-26-2008, 01:45 PM:
Joe--how do you deinterlace an MOV file? I'm using the SGI "mediarecorder" tool that comes with the operating system. It sucks, and the workstation is a decade old, but I don't have anything else with a video capture card at the moment.
And why would Youtube only display progressive scan content? Doesn't most Youtube material originate as interlaced NTSC or PAL video?
Not sure about the sound codec, except that the original file had no sound, so I don't really understand why Youtube decided that my file needed random bursts of static added to it. It didn't happen when I used the same tools in the past.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 06-26-2008, 03:42 PM:
You deinterlace before it gets to Quicktime. Do it in whatever you are editing in. Youtube can ONLY display in progressive scan because not many (if any) computers run in interlaced mode. So it is playing 60 different moments in time 30 different times a second. One thing you could try for an "auto deinterlace" is make the Quicktime file exactly half of the original file in vertical resolution. So if the original video is 720x480, make the Quicktime 320x240. Be sure to add an audio track, even if that audio track is silent.

I'm editing film on a Steenbeck, so I can't do anything there which would affect the quality of the captured file. I transferred the film to tape and captured the tape on the SGI.
The SGI box captures directly to Quicktime (or, at least, something whose filenames end in .mov and which play in Quicktime Player...err...Itunes...or whatever they're calling it this week).

Steve Martin's career has gone well and truly down the toilet.
Exhibit 'A'...
Trailer for The Pink Panther 2
I think 'The Pink Panther and the Kingdom of the Magnetic Headed Aliens' would be a much better title.
This looks like the piece of shit everyone would expect.
Steve Martin is so much better than this. Unfortunately, he most likely had to sign for the obligatory sequel.

I'm surprised the 3D effect held up after Youtube got done compressing it. When I was editing the Esquire IMAX 3D Adventure it was originally in 3D but I had an extremely hard time with all of it because the DV codec used by the camera destroyed any 3D effect that was possible since it really crushes the reds and blues.

Part 5 - Threading!!
Oh man, I love how he can't tell if he put the ad on backwards or not.
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 07-20-2008, 07:58 PM:
Moron??? Can't you come up with a better word than that? You're being too nice. I wonder which UA this is. That guy CLEARLY belongs in the "you suck" thread.
I just looooooooooove how at the end of part 2/beginning of part 3 half of the film is getting scratched on the edge of the platter deck as it is being loaded up because the projectionist is a fucking idiot. Then he tries to make up for it by "painting" the casing of the projector, as if he cares. Geez guy, paintbrushes offer no useful purpose in a booth. I wish I knew who came up with that retarded idea so I could slap them.
Part 4...what a mess. That reel change is going to look awful.
Part 5...somebody call hazmat on those disease infected suction cups!
I expected him to dump the leader onto the floor at some point, so no surprise there. Having his hand on the framing knob knowing that he would fuck up the threading was a nice touch.

Shit! There's a camera and I'm wearing a tie! I'll wait till he's up the other end and take it off so I look more cool while I continue to fuck everything up in this booth.
Every part of those UA videos has cringeworthy material. How filthy was the booth floor? How much crap is on the port glasses? How many times can he put the film on the floor? I knew he was going to thread up out of frame but he really hit paydirt when he opended up BANG! TWO holes out! Does he get bonus points for that?
I was certain when he had the twist in the print going to the platter he'd break the splice to fix it. Oh, and don't forget the great platter covers sitting in the filth on the floor. They would most likely lose any dirt they picked up from the floor on the way to covering the print, right?
And how many non-essential people can you have in the booth at one time? Luckily no-one stuck their fingers where they shouldn't and injured themselves. I'd have loved to see the insurance try and cover that!
Man, you really suck.

I also loved how much damn tension he had on the analog reader. Also it seemed like only one of their barcode scanners was even reading cues. I enjoyed how when everyone first entered the booth the first thing that was shown was a static-ridden print. This video was probably made 7 or 8 years ago, and the guy thought he might find the video on the internet (due to his comment at the beginning of part 3, I think)? The internet could barely even load text 7 years ago. He was really surprised when one piece of equipment was actually working!

Yeah, I've seen the Canon 50D but I'm way more interested in the Canon 5D Mark II. That one is so bad ass. I wouldn't mind the G10 for quick on the go footage I can put in my purse.

I think the only downside on the 5D Mark II for video is that it only goes up to 4GB per clip(30 mins).
I think the 4GB limit is due to data being written in FAT32 rather than a file allocation table system that allows for file sizes larger than 4GB (such as NTFS). That same pesky limit comes into play when attaching external hard discs or flash drives to a Playstation 3 (PS3 doesn't recognize NTFS).
I'm kind of drooling over the Canon EOS 5D Mark II. It has a 21.1 million pixel full frame sensor. No crop factor on L-series lenses (or other full frame compatible EF series lenses) like you get with the less expensive D-SLR camera bodies.
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 09-24-2008, 11:09 AM:
I have the MarkIIDs something-or-other camera (the 21 megapixel one) and can attest it is a phenomenal camera. Of course I bought it just before they decided to make one that shoots video.

Hmm, the stuff put up in the past couple months retains its stereo if you add &fmt=18 to the end of it, but it doesn't work on older stuff. Wonder how long that'll go on before YouTube decides to mess that up?
Just put this up to test it, there's not much separation there anyways but it's still cool- read my description if you want to know what music they used in this:

Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 10-02-2008, 01:41 PM:
Is it just me or is Edwin's link above to "Call on Me" amazingly painful to listen to on a full range system? (Well ok it's painful to watch too, but I'm referring to the music.) There is SO MUCH COMPRESSION to that beat in the low frequencies that it has always aggravated my ears.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 10-02-2008, 05:19 PM:
What you're hearing is the high end (cymbal, high-hat, etc) compressing during the beats. Yes, that kind of stuff is unbearable. It also sounds like the song itself was mixed extremely poorly as well with lots o' clipping.
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 10-02-2008, 06:01 PM:
It's not just the cymbals. I find the compressed THUMP THUMP THUMP bass to be far more aggravating. It is as if someone is rapidly turning the volume up and down really fast, or as if someone used one of those old dbx "dynamic range expanders" on it.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 10-03-2008, 01:45 AM:
Do you have the original in which I can compare? If not, I'd say the tune was mixed that way or someone just cranked the volume/EQ causing that distortion. Compression usually cuts the high end and more or less is transparent on the low end.
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 10-03-2008, 01:52 AM:
Oh it was definitely mixed that way.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 10-03-2008, 04:11 AM:
OK you were talking about level compression and I was talking about mathematical file compression. The song fails on both counts!

Yeah. That's gotta sound great!

John Wilson, do you ever get or give prints from/to some other theater? Sucks moving that print from one building to another. Rollers on lampposts and a few stray make-up tables should do the trick.

I love the VD is for Everybody spot, but it isn't as way cool as those Valtrex ads. The Valtrex commercials actually make people want to get Herpes. Because getting herpes means you're getting laid and getting laid regularly by lots of different people. And getting laid by lots of different people regularly is way cool. If you do that often enough you can be like those people in the Valtrex ads and ride horses on private beaches in super slow motion. Herpes is fucking cool. It makes me sad I don't have those weeping groin blisters. Being clean is LAME!!
Herpes or not, slow motion or not, I don't think Valtrex is ever going to hire the Goatse Creature for its advertising. If the thing was real and not CGI there's probably a few bars in Tijuana that would want to book it for live "stunt" shows.

One thing's likely: Tom Cruise is happy everyone can now fixate on a different Hollywood star meltdown instead of his antics on the Today Show or Oprah's couch.
This is pretty bad publicity for Christian Bale. A-list actors or movie stars always must realize it is a very tricky balance to stay perched at the top. A recording like this by itself wouldn't be enough to wreck an actor's movie career. However, if such pissy on set behavior is common for a given actor it will eventually take its toll.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 02-03-2009, 11:23 PM:
I don't think this matches Tom Cruise's couch jumping insanity. Nowhere close, actually. Yes, Bale went way overboard, but he definitely had reason to be upset.

Nope, it was demolished in the mid 1980's. I was working for Universal Projector back then, we cleaned out the booth (Equipment was as Monte mentioned, but I think the Peerless were either gone or had been converted to xenon...)

Yep, that was him. Charlie Sr. was a grumpy, mean spirited old man, but a genius at machine work. His sons Tom and Charlie Jr. as well as his daughter Dorothy worked there too.
I lost a very costly bet with Sr. when I bet him he couldn't cut a custom aperture plate to within .005" in either dimension, without measuring until he was done. After he cut the plate, eyeballing it several times, he handed it to me to measure. The width was right on, the height was off (undercut) by .002" !!
Rat bastard.
He used to call himself "micrometer eye."
He also was instrumental in the design of the Christie projector. He made considerable royalties from them.

Samething here. Seems this video is not available outside the USA. Don't feel like wasting a Proxy's bandwith, so if "Hollywood" (well, NY if it Letterman) doesn't want me to watch it, fine with it.
I enjoyed the video of Joaquin "rapping" from some weeks back ...
The guy lost it. Great and funny.
Anyway, search Joaqin Phoenix Letterman on youtube and can find a few. Hopefully this is the same.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lG-M1CWskeQ
The letterman interview is, of course, rehearsed and suppossed to be that way. Whether it's true that Joaquin is totally wacko or just getting into character to play some wacko thing and the whole thing is mostly marketing/artistic ... who knows.
Joaquin is known to be VERY excentric in and off set, very method and generally just weird. So maybe he's jump the gun or maybe not. Only time will tell.
Regardless, I wouldn't want my daughter dating him ...
With the sunglasses on, it's also hard to tell if he's clearly on drugs or not.
My bet? Casey Affleck is actually making a mockumentary rather than a documentary. Letterman wouldn't have booked him if it was the drugs problem, I don't think. Too much liability. No more than $1, though.

I don't think so. I looked up the "Wahoo Gazette" (a daily show recap by a staffer on the Letterman website) and he says, "So what was up with Joaquin Phoenix? Was it an act? If it was, I certainly wasn't expecting it." And in the commentary about the show itself, he says ""Joaquin said he'll soon be retiring from acting. I think he already has... Unlike the mythical Phoenix, I'm not sure if this Phoenix will ever return."
So....I know how showbiz is all about everything being fake, but I don't think this particular interview was.

Posted by Julio Roberto (Member # 4976) on 02-19-2009, 07:51 PM:
I doubt the interview itself wasn't suppossed to be pretty much the way it was, as this stuff is rehearsed and prepared sometimes weeks in advance by the producers.
Go here to get some answers or to the link underneath for the "straight guacamole" from a Letterman (ex)producer. Let it run past the end of the video and will take you to the next one. About the following 4 or 5 videos are relevant.
http://www.videojug.com/interview/late-night-talk-show-guests-2#how-do-producers-prepare-material-for-celebrity- guests-on-talk-shows
You can go here for more talk about this.
http://www.videojug.com/tag/late-night-talk-shows
As you guys said, TV and movies are all about faking. A couple of weeks ago there was a big controversy here in Spain when a TV talkshow host doctored a video where he was suppossly insulting blalantly an interm girl in the program, sent it "annonymously" by email to a very critical competitor channel. They pretended it was shot by a member of the audience on a cell phone minutes before taping.
Sure enough, it got "leaked" to youtube and it was picked up as an "exclusive" by the competing channel, hammering the comedian for totally inappropiate behaviour.
Hell broke loose and after the weekend, when the talkhost presented his program on Monday, after the whole country was looking to see what he had to say, he said he'll offer an explanation at the end of the show.
Sure, the "longer version" of the video showed the "poor insulted interm girl" bringing back a big sign saying "We gotcha" and the talkhost another one that said: "I'm bad, but not this much". Few suspected, though most pro's would've picked up the quality and of the (clean) audio as superior to that of a cellphone recording under the circunstances, so it had to be fake. At least that was my vote after I watched it twice.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fKfAIOiGFc
Hell broke loose again. The ethics commities of all TV networks were called-in to discuss what limits were acceptable (short answer=none).
As life imitates art, it's funny that this came out just a few weeks before the Bale recording became public and it's virtually identical ("star" yelling a crew member for crossing line-of-sight/distracting during rehersal/performance).
It's true that lately, due to reduced budgets therefore reduced personnel, writters, editors, producers and directors no longer polish TV programming as much and more than ever before it's being left to improv. Still, a lot more fake than people think.
That the interview may have been more or less agreed upon in those terms that were presented, it doesn't mean the Joaquin indeed may have decided to quit acting and take drugs or just go nuts. ![[Shrug]](graemlins/shrug.gif)
Who the hell knows, but it all looks really doctored to me. You know what they say: "If it looks too good to be true, it probably isn't".
Depending on the possition of the staffer in that blog mentioned, he wouldn't need to be "in it" if it was arranged that way or perhaps he is "in it" now .
So my bet is still it's (mostly) fake. Only betting $1, though. And Joaquin is a nut case anyway, so your call if he is THAT nuts or not.
Again, I'm only betting that the interview was supposed to be pretty much that way, not that Phoenix has quit acting (if I had his money, I probably would quit too) or that he has turned into rap music (I doubt that, though), or that he is heavy into drugs (but I doubt that too).

Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 04-01-2009, 09:06 AM:
Here is a short video of my current projection booth. It started out as a project to document film projection while I still can, but so far I only have footage of this booth in HD so I had to make this video confined to one theater for now. Here it is:
Click here for 480p Quicktime - 26.6 MB - 24fps - Quick and dirty encode
Click here for 720p Quicktime - 150 MB I think - 24fps - Nice encode
--YES, I know about the missing screw on the sound drum closure and the bent roller on the failsafe causing the film to come off the feed out sprocket oddly, but when I am not there this is a manager run booth with Strong equipment and as a result shit happens... often.
I would still like to complete the original intention of this video (with different music and more varied shots). If anyone else locally has a theater with different equipment and wouldn't mind me shooting some shots like these, please let me know. Remember, the video would be about film projection in general, not your theater specifically.

That must be one very dated parody. The old early 1980's era NBC logo alone makes it very obvious. Another is the parody jingle slamming NBC for having only an 18 share in the Nielsen ratings.
If a major broadcast network averaged an 18 share for the week currently they would be kicking ass big time. It's possible to win the Nieslen ratings for the week with as little as a 10 share.

I'd like to see a comprehensive list (in order of appearance) of who all of these people are.
I don't know all of those people, but the ones I recognize are:
Ellen DeGeneres
Forest Whitaker
Demi Moore
Eva Longoria
Laura Linney
Leonardo DiCaprio
Jonah Hill
Couteney Cox
Natalie Portman
Djimon Hounsou
Giovanni "Fuck It" Ribisi
Jamie Foxx
Seriously, the folks at Cracked.com (or whoever put together that video) obviously lifted all those celebrity clips from some other "save the earth" style campaign. What was the original video? Obviously it had the F-bomb in it with what Giovanni Ribisi said.
Posted by Anslem Rayburn (Member # 1267) on 04-13-2009, 05:47 AM:
I'm actually willing to bet that the celebrities in that video did it knowing what it was being used for. There would be serious usage lawsuits otherwise, and most of them seem like they have good senses of humor...

I like how the guy keeps showing the platter with the dragging payout as if it's something to be proud of. If I had a payout that ever dragged that badly I wouldn't show it on video (since I'd be ashamed of something running is such poor condition)! Phase controls like that are pretty easy to get functioning properly, though. I also really like how he piles the leader on the floor. Cleanliness is not a concern of his. I am glad he doesn't work in my booth.

The future of interactive film
Once you select the level of quality according to your internet speed, select "full screen" and off you go. You can click on "skip intro" if you don't want to waste an additional minute.
At 3 points during the "movie" you'll see a blue sign next to the time bar. I suggest you first watch the movie "as is" once to enjoy it and then, during a second time, just fast-forward the time bar to each of those 3 marked points in blue and click on the blue button that shows up. The movie will interrupt and "expand" to show ... oh, well, I don't know how to describe it, I guess it's sort of a "behind the scenes".

Posted by Bobby Henderson (Member # 840) on 07-13-2009, 10:27 AM:
That prank call recording has been around for awhile. It's funny on a certain level, but should clearly illustrate that telling someone their significant other has been cheating when he or she really hasn't is a stupidly hazardous idea.
I can think of worse prank ideas, like spreading word a certain guy in the neighborhood is a pedophile when he really isn't. Anyway, there's no telling how far someone is going to fly off the handle when being told a cheating story. People can get shot over that kind of nonsense.
Anyway, back to the videos.

Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 07-17-2009, 07:13 PM:
Hey Joe.
The cinema was built in 1937...that cinema (still in its original dress circle and stalls formation with 900 seats) sits in between two extensions. In that video, the film starts on the 1997 extension and travels to the other side to the 2001 extension.
We stopped there.
The hole through the wall was put there by us. It's a piece of 60mm PVC pipe and allows the film to go into our smallest cinema of 59 seats. We can now sell private sessions for parties or groups to see the new movie in the 900 seater but at their own screening 2 minutes and 11 seconds later.
It leaves us with 5 of our 6 screens able to be interlocked or just for a 'film journey'. I'm sure you'll agree that journeying a print of Harry Potter or Transformers is much easier on the back than lifting those things.
The last screen will not be on this 'network' as it's definately on its own in the complex.

A true AK-47 is a Russian-made Kalashnikov with full auto capability. That kind of weapon cannot be legally sold to civilians. Of course, with a little modification that Chinese made AK can work in full auto and waste its user a whole lot of money on ammunition real fast. I'd rather have a Colt AR-15, a Sig Sauer 556 or a number of Heckler and Koch models if I was in the market for an assault rifle.
The folks at the OFASTS shows often have grandfathered Class-C gun dealers licenses that allow them to legally own full auto weapons. I'm not sure what goes on to allow full auto gun owners to sell such weapons to others.
My own opinion is spraying full auto machine gun fire serves only one legitimate tactical purpose: laying down suppressive gun fire. You're spraying a lot of bullets over the heads of your enemy keeping them hunkered down in their holes which allows your buddies to move and hopefully flank the position of the enemy. Your buddies will be firing single shots or 3 round bursts when they sight their targets.
In terms of accuracy, full auto weapons are a joke. Even a lot of semi auto rifles suck ass compared to a good bolt-action single shot rifle. I honestly don't understand why all the anti gun people and politicians get their panties in a bunch over "assault rifles". If they really wanted to make a dent in gun related homicides by banning certain kinds of weapons they would make more progress by getting rid of those cheap .22 and .25 ACP hideaway pawn shop pistols. Those are the main things the gang bangers are carrying. They're not rolling down the street with a Sig Sauer 556 rifle!
Still, full auto machine gun fire in a demo setting puts a big wide smile on the faces of many. It's just extreme and very American!

Ha.
It sits below the first cinema in that video but projects in the opposite direction so the screen is under that first booth. The only way into the downstairs booth is through the cinema.
I'd have to travel the film through the foyer (and even down the elevator shaft) and that could be messy with the crowds we get...not to mention if someone calls the elevator.
Definitely messy.

Too bad they didn't have video of the accident in progress. We could rock the footage back and forth around the moment of impact to make it appear like it's going in and out of the garage!

Airbus A380 hard landing at Oshkosh Tuesday afternoon
Posted by Mark Gulbrandsen (Member # 72) on 07-30-2009, 03:44 PM:
Lets keep this politically correct guys and gals. But here is the video and article of the security guards vs. the two gay guys kissing on Main Street plaza here in SLC a few weeks ago. Of course to everyone's dismay they left out the kissing part. I see a civil lawsuit the size of a Temple about to happen because this video exists. There was a huge Kiss In on Main Street Plaza by gays and straight couples a week or so ago and all the guards did then was watch... I give these two guys alot of credit for setting the fuse!!! Note that the local prosecuter has droped the charges since seeing the video... he knows he hasn't a chance!
Article and Video
Posted by Randy Stankey (Member # 64) on 07-30-2009, 06:46 PM:
Does that video point out a problem with the Airbus or is it simply shcadenfreude?
There's nothing wrong with taking a little pleasure at the misfortune of others but it looks more like a bunch of airjocks punching each other in the shoulder than anything else.
But then, again, those Airbus pilots are a bunch of monkeys anyway!

Do you get the impression the director told the boiz to "fem it up?" Or did it just comes naturally when you put the two of them in the same room?
