Dudley On His Way To Meet Nell
Nell,
Dud's not well,
After traveling pell-mell,
First in weather hot as hell,
It was the worst such spell,
Said all those of the old who cared to tell.
Some didn't stay to say, because of the smell,
Of un-hosed Horse and Do-Rights missing Prell.
But then soon we were beset,
By baseball size hail,
And most ominously, a wail!
Yes, it was a tornado that fell,
And straightaway that wild, foul, loud, gale
Took the cows… Continue

Group Film Discussion #2: Friday, June 13th: PAPRIKA
Okay, Netflickers, you let me carry your water in that last discussion. Doesn't anybody want to get together to talk about the SAME film at the SAME time just after you've SEEN it? Don't you and your partner, after having unsatisfying sex, discuss it? Of course you do! You talk at the SAME time about the the bad thing you are doing, and talk at the SAME time about that bad thing after you were doing it. This filmflam discussion group is exactly the SAME THING, except more people would be… Continue

Opinionated-Gal said… - Just FYI: The Netflix search engine has been rigged to bring up "The Water Horse" EVERY time anyone puts the word "the" in the search engine. To thwart this obvious new form of payola, don't use the word "the." You'll get what you're looking for without it.
This has been going on for weeks now, and gawd knows how much unadvertised-as-such advertising this has generated for that film. It might be a good one; I just despise the sneaky stealth promotion and hope to discourage it in the future.

- aha! There you are. Looks like you got it working the way you want.
I haven't been around much the past week or so -- working more cuts into my fun time, alas. I'm not really a grown-up, but filling in for one is quite exhausting.

- HiL,
I'll go back and fix regenerate the code. I think I would not have thought to do that. So thank you.
Massive Attack is, imo, the best of the trip-hop genre. You also might like Portishead, Morcheeba, and Baxter. And Michel Gondry has made some incredible music videos, some of which are of Massive Attack. Combining MA's music and MG's visual imagination have produced memorable videos.

- Hi O: For Project Playlist, I think what you want to do is select "Autostart: No" when you get to #3 of the Generate Code process. Default is set to"Yes." Took me a while to figure out too! Hope this helps.
I love Massive Attack. Most of your other choices are new to me -- I'll check a few out while I'm here.

- The movie is 10 Rillington Place made in the 60s. Attenborough plays John CHristie, infamous British serial killer. The true story is more appalling than any invented script but isn't that always the case?
Glad to hear what your friend thought of Obama.
- At 4:38am on June 26, 2008, iconoclast11 said…
- Any film with Richard Attenborough, especially from that 60s-70's British film era is great. He didn't play angry young men but quiet disturbed introverts. There is another one that knocked me out. I will add it later as I am just getting the hang of this Netflix community thing and might lose my place!

- I thought about you when I walked by the AFI Silver and saw SilverDocs. How was it?
