Things that I marvel at

[jkno]

Someone made a Netflix account using my email but a different name . I get emails from Netflix Mexico that my account is now delinquent. I thought it was spam, so ignored it, but now that you are saying this makes me think?

You need to contact Netflix asap! In my case it was not spam or delinquent, but you never know.

Absolutely amazing theme song *mind blown*

Surprisingly few people actually seem to post in the Marvel section on a day to day basis. I've been in there a lot lately and it's not as teeming with activity as I would have thought given that it's where the largest portion of new releases are.

As a sidenote I do still see a few bad boys in there, Lejuan. I have been lax in reporting them.

You think it finally hit a wall?

ah, whatchgonna do?

Here's a first, I saw a few 1/6 figures in the op shop today, in their boxes: SS Vader, stormie, royal guard and Palpatine. And a medicom Jawa. They were going for $35USD a piece. I was feeling pretty broke. I would've bit on a Tusken Raider but no interest in these given I long ago sold mine for the HT versions. Still, an op shop, who'd thunk it...

40?! I s'pose so.

It was the first movie my mum took me to see just her and me.

 

[devilof76]

That's a good one. I saw my first movie at the age of 4 with older kids and no adult supervision. It was Star Wars. 1978.

First one my mom took me to was Empire Strikes Back, but my brother was also present. I have three siblings and it's kind of a given that you can't leave one boy home while the other gets to see the sequel to the second greatest movie ever made.

 

[Lejuan]

I am bummed that I have no memory of seeing Star Wars for the first time. I can remember my older brother being able to go see it with a friend and being too cool to let his kid brother tag along. I can remember desperately wanting to see it, and I can remember having seen it... just not the actual experience of seeing it.

I saw some other movies in 1978: Battlestar Galactica... Convoy... The Cat from Outer Space... I can remember those just fine

The first time I saw it was on TV. I remember because I had seen ESB and Jedi numerous times already but never ANH so I was primed to remember it.

The one that bugs me is not knowing if I saw T1 before I saw T2.

 

[Lejuan]

I definitely saw T2 first, but it was the third time I saw it that was the most memorable. The four of us were the only non-blacks in a full-house cinema in Zimbabwe. No visual effects literacy whatever in a culturally very superstitious crowd. The reaction when the T1000 walked out of the flames of the wrecked rig was priceless

I def saw T1 first , in late 80s

Also saw Predator , Red Heat , Police Academy 6 first time around on VHS......Horror Express scared the hell out of me , lol......same with Conan , the last scene

Also saw Wheels on Meals......I saw these at other kids houses , my folks did not like me seeing them

Prolly saw J4 before Jaws 1

Fun seeing Joey Diaz on youtube , how amazed people were with Bruce Lee then when the films were first shown in US , 1973-74

Papyrus comics , the atmosphere the artist creates in his drawings.....the cartoon just doesnt have quite the same mood although its good in itself

Leone's OUATITW turns 50 this x-mas.....I wonder if Walken saw this when it came out , the character of Frank reminds me of him

The thread-count increase in the Forum Questions & Suggestions and Introductions sections has been quite something to behold.

That IS impressive to say the least
