Two occurences that may have had an effect: 1. A period of time when the forum descended to levels lower than whale shit on the ocean floor because of the self-serving, destructive strategies of a former 'contributor' (read as pleural, as it turns out that the 'poster' was actually a poseur who empl...

Barbara Olsen, God Rest her Soul, died on 9/11 when her aircraft was directed into the Pentagon by Terrorists. Her second compendium of well documented, fully footnoted and referenced book on Hillary (and Bill) was posthumously released two days later. If anyone believes that Hillary Clinton does no...

21 Grams

21 Grams Not Sean Penn's best performance, although should Mystic River never been released, it could arguably be considered the best. In Mystic River, Penn ran the emotional gauntlet and never missed. In 21 Grams, his character was self-limiting, and consequently, the impact of the performance was ...

While Elvis, Steve, and Pete still have it in 'em to compose and produce a balanced rock and roll recording that would serve as the ultimate gratification for many of the contributors to this forum, I am completely convinced that the era is passed and will not recur for this artist and his troupe of...

This poll is an incredibe (albeit implicit) accolade to the EC. Compare musical genre's presented in GH and North. They are diametrically oppossed. Now compare PTC and Trust: they each have a very unigue 'feel' about them. Continue this qualitative ANOVA and a true testament of the artist rises abov...

Purchased "Memento" Special Edition DVD. Watched it carefully. There are more than a few interesting scenes that play out after repeated viewings. Is it me, or is this back-to-front, chronically juxtaposed film completely riveting from the get go.

Draperdan became Mr. Average because of vicious abuse of an internet forum by a past contributor. Mr. Average was unable to post to this board for reasons that remain unknown or understood. Not sure if it was a matter of censorship or not, but ALL posts were rejected from Mr. Average a while back. H...

The Statement that "There is only One Master of Life and Death" is sanctimonious and dismissive only of it is accepted as such. I espouse my beliefs. It is a a product of Faith. Because I feel strongly about my beliefs does not infer that I think that those who do not consign to my belief ...
