• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Don't Look Up!

I did my traditional viewing of It's a Wonderful Life. I have a personal connection with that movie as I share the same last name with the characters and I managed a bank most of my adult life..... Jim
 
We watched A Christmas Story followed by the 1938 version of A Christmas Carol with Reginald Owen. The newer stuff is also very good, but I favor Alistair Simms or Reginald Owen as Ebenezer.

We then watched a Christmas Eve special with Transsiberian Orchestra, and finished off with some religious programming.

It's not Christmas until Han Gruber falls from the Nakatomi Tower....... Yes------ " Die Hard"


ya it's a bit violent but so is Yellowstone and 1883----and they are really good.
 
I just got done watching it and thought it was very good. I don’t like Meryl Streep and she got what she deserved.

Don't Look Up was good. It showed how this tech generation has lost its grounding. Unfortunately, I doubt if anyone in that group got the point.
 
Did my usual marathon of watching "A Christmas Story" while wrapping presents. I always wait till everyone goes to bed then turn on the movie and watch. I also prefer the 1938 version., tho we did watch Alister Simm this year and George C Scott, my favorite of the new "A Christmas Carol". I also have to watch " Miracle on 34th St.,"It's A Wonderful Life","Holiday Affair", and the 1964 "Rudolf the Red Nose Raindeer". TV can be so fun this time of year.
 
I just watched 'Don't Look Up' - bloody brilliant! :yes:

I wasn't really sure about it, but then I started laughing at the absurdities early on and it just kept on getting better & better! :shocked: Now my sides hurt; my face hurts; and the credits haven't stopped rolling yet but I gotta go pee.... that's the only way I know I didn't pee my pants earlier laughing so hard! :ohyea:

If you haven't watched it yet, you really gotta! :thumbup:
 
I watched it for awhile but had to turn it off because it's so accurate describing our government and media, I got mad! I get that it's a spoof but not a long stretch from reality.
 
Thanks for posting it. Fell sure it has made it into my suggestions before and I just passed over it thinking it would not be for me...wrong Loved the ending.

Peter, hope you didn't miss the real ending. Came after the credits had rolled for a while.

Did you see what happened when the Escape Ship landed on some luxurious planet after 1500 years or so?

At least on the version I watched, the Pres getting killed by that critter (as predicted! :roflblack: ) was somewhat before a bunch of credits & the (apparently??) final shot of Jason crawling out from underneath the rubble left on Earth & then making the comment I quoted above at post #14, all while still busily updating his social media status..... despite all his 'followers' having just been blown to smithereens! :shocked:

Was there even more?? :dontknow:
