So I’ve run out of ideas for discussion topics (this kind of thing has never been my strong suit), and I am resorting to the inevitable Open Thread. Whether you wanna discuss Syfy’s recent news about possibly making some Waterworld content, or you wanna discuss the manliness of Fabio, whatever you wanna talk about is fair game! Also, feel free to suggest more discussion topics.
Jeezus, give a guy some warning before he opens this site at work to see a picture of Fabio up at the top – goddam I think my boss now thinks I’m weird…..
Ahem.
Look, I like Fabio as much as the next heterosexual male, but what might be nice is to see a picture of him as he is today, instead of one from years ago…. Might be good for a laff!
As for discussion points, what are your thoughts on the rise and popularity of digital filmmaking comparied to traditional? As a start.
Hahahaha, sorry! Here’s a recent pic. Or here.
Choose wisely. 🙂
Good pull on the digital filmmaking topic. I could definitely run with that one. Thanks!
…isn’t that Tarzan…
…anyway…digital versus film – I still love the look of film on a cinema screen. It’ll be interesting to see what all this 48fps stuff is when The Hobbit comes out.
Fabio is whoever you want him to be, Dan. Such is the power of Fabio.
And yeah, film will always trump digital. I don’t care how good digital looks now. I am very interested in seeing the 48fps Hobbit, although I hear it looks more like a TV show than a movie, which makes me sad.
Fabio will forever be the “I can’t believe it’s not butter” guy.
Yeah! I always enjoyed those commercials, not really for the content but for Fabio’s delivery of “I can’t believe it’s not butter… spray.” I still reference that damn joke and do the voice to this day. Hahahaha. Oh, Fabio, you so fabulous.
Thankyou for making my day, Stephen!
You know, I hadn’t really intended to embed that video, but such is the power of Fabio that it happened anyway.
You were merely a conduit for his power.
…how come the questions are getting tougher when posting a comment?!
…it used to be – what is 3 + 1? Now I just had 9 x what is 72…I had to think about that one! 🙂
Hahaha, sorry! I had to change plugins and this one likes to throw out harder questions (but it’s also better on spam). I hunted down the settings and removed the multiplication. It was something I had been meaning to do but I kept forgetting, so thanks for reminding me!
Dan, don’t you read Silver Emulsions with a calculator at your side? I know I do…. 🙂
Hahahaha, I should put that on the sidebar as a recommended accessory. Hmm, I wonder if there’s an Algebraic math plugin? 🙂
Don’t you dare. Can’t understand algenbra.
Hahaha. I did look, just out of curiosity, but I didn’t find one.
How about a calculator plugin?
Ooooh wait! How about a graphing calculator plugin so you can justify the algebra plugin, and then get all the visitors distracted by playing bowling and Space Invaders on the graphing calculator plugin?
Or maybe just skip the whole math thing and make them win a game of bowling on the graphing calculator before posting?
Hahaha, that’s hilarious. If that was possible I would totally do that for a day or so to fuck with people.
It’ll be the new revolution in captchas: playing a game to prove you’re a human. Soon there will be ads on the captcha games, and eventually micro-transactions. We’ll long for the days of squinting at an undecipherable word.
