*hangs head in shame.

We are NOT stopping for ice cream

glad it wasn't just me...

I wonder how much film makers do to compensate for this?

Otherwise they're just remakes/reboots

Like the original Psycho on film wouldn't be able to exist in the remake's universe because Lila Crane might watch it and get the weirdest sense of Déjà vu.

It's a given, otherwise shit like this happens..

almost posted the same as text

is are any films set in the real world, and not just the usual 1 dimensional version of it you get in almost every single movie.

EDIT: Full movie - www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQoCnqHzxcU

joking aside, documentaries don't count ;)
and p.s. anyone who hasn't watched Baraka, stop what you're doing, get a drink, come back and watch that link full screen from start to finish

Although my ex-missus told me that she never wanted to see anything like that again. She was quite pale. The hallmark of a good film?

:)

Thank goodness someone understands that this is art we're looking at here.

do you mean that you think it's art?

Dude I was totally kidding with mictoboy - believe me I am not surprised that you know about Picasso's light paintings! The jest is that if you work in the art world to any degree lots of people would say "I see what you did there" not with a laff but with a chin rub and a discussion about the meaning of removing the protagonist from the image to create a 'new discourse on the nature of memory and society's ability to appreciate history in the digital nowism'. Me I'm just having fun :)

whilst retaining picasso's indelible mis-en-scene

I shall simply say thank you, it is the appreciation of one's peers that one appreciates, even if the appreciation has no bearing on the work.

Well, that's OK, then.
Drinks all round!

free beer is not nearly as un-appreciated as Picasso's light art experiments.

Not too bothered though. I just think it looks like a ghost man with a neon whip.

I think he is vastly under-appreciated for his "light art". For the time, it's amazing.

Pretty sure he is one of if not the best known artist of the 20th century

Maybe it's the circles I move in, hell I dunno.

you didn't get a much bigger global platform back then

yeah, as a start point for the project I'm using some of the LIFE magazine best images of the 20th century, but many of them are just pure Americana like the Mickey Mantel one.

if you like photoshop skillz from 2001 maybe ;)

even more under-appreciated is the guy who showed him how it was done: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gjon_Mili

(nice!)

It's the power cord for the light pen

Unsettling

SHOW NO MERCY ERNIE

 

i did a crooked smile, sort of thing

to stop that YAPPING

EDIT/ Thank you Happy Toast, Mick Jagger is now Iggy. And although Terry and Bruce released records... well, have you heard the floral dance? ;)

Thought old Cliff looked very Ian Brown-esque on the Olympic torch run yesterday...

(Edit: soz, nearly started this as a new thread instead of replying)

naughty boy

I feel officially 'bad' now

Bruce Forsyth has released several albums
Terry obviously did the Floral Dance
and Tina Turner is leathery

come on fella, check your facts! ;)

P.S. have you added "Boiling" to water yet, do that and even I'd buy a tea towel!

All true. No boiling yet, soon.

-w :P

nice work

What an absolute mentalist!

Reminds me of: www.b3ta.com/board/3759265

I debated /links, but as it was the photo I found hilarious I settled on here.

The story is actually a kinda nice one, in how the judge handled it...

The thing that is so sorry about RPS is (to me) it quickly turns into 'look at this here pretty picture wot I have photographed'. I don't really mind the cats and the dogs.

tsk tsk

this is great too

(XD

class

:/

means photos you've taken yourself.
also, he looks like flea.

edit: sorry, that came across as a bit harsh. it is a good mugshot, whatever the case...

He looks to me to be an unholy blend of Beavis, Sideshow Bob and Lurch.

 

Here's a newy - Ridley and Tony Scott fighting over a stottie round their mams.

That's wonderful

is my interpretation of this

But in any case he is certainly not bothered by it.

Grandsprog No6 (Jay 7lb 12oz) squeezed out today so I made this. Don't know why.

and woo to your lower piccy, which I wholeheartedly endorse.

The chimp would do a bloody better job of running the place and all!
Also: congrats!

... oh, you have.

Thank you... and congratulations

A new little person :)

Congrats to all concerned.

My current package is a fucking drain on the treasury.

but i had to stop it because a) it started getting too long and b) i started realising that deep down i was taking it all a little too seriously

I don't know what you're on about

..mines been crossed.

minor TJ: just looking for some recommendations on animated GIF editors...been using imageready for ages, but i'm wondering if there are any other cheap/freeware ones i should have a look at?

you can get the lot for usually less than a fiver 2nd hand

But it's fucking obligatory, you know.

no, srsly, come here and sniff me :P

Only, I'm not sure where you are but I'm guessing it's not easy walking distance.

he's got a lot of teeth

Now I am wondering what charcoal tastes like

variety is the spice of life
Draw a cow, then an art museum, then a daffodil, then spaghetti bolognese, then a family member, then a 1987 Rover Metro, etc etc
it's the only way to get better at drawing

But valid point on variation.

You're Ultra-Mod - make it happen please.

maybe let the character write itself

I like her a lot. :)

I found a ball of dead earthworms that a cat had sicked up on our lawn the other day

Go and stand in the corner (with an umbrella) and think about what you've done
