I don't think Mr. Romney has any chance whatsover of beating the incumbent. This is McCain, part II. Democrats can rest easy. It's in the bag.

King of Kings (1961) A+

Saw this epic film on the big screen for the first time, at the AFI Silver Theater, in Silver Spring, MD, this past Sunday. Spectacular filmmaking, shot in Super...

My source tells me the final height (to top of antenna) will be 1801 MSL.

I really do miss diving boards at hotel swimming pools. Damned lawyers!

Saw it on the big screen this past weekend, in glorious black and white, and featuring the stars, Bette Davis and Joan Crawford in rare form. This film doesn't hold up very well, in part due to the...

Re: the picture in post 11686. When the new antenna is put up, this classic scene should be recreated. With the same ironworkers, if possible.

This building is a bore-fest. ZZZZZzzzzzz.

Am not a fan of Tower 2, so actually I hope it doesn't get built in its present plan. The top is kid stuff and awkward. Perhaps after a few years the plans can be redrafted so we get something...

Aaaaaaack. Not a single candidate has challenged the fact that the U.S. government has essentially banned the traditional 100 watt light bulb. But that's ok...it's a "free" country.

As for those EWR arrivals, flight crews will know of the glare problem and be prepared for it. Best option is simply to fly the ILS approach.

Am not optimistic about any future efforts to finish the tower. The Hearst tower, uptown was never finished off its original inception. What happened there is well-known to readers of WNY.

Glad to see this building is being fully used. It's a beauty.

What surprises me is there's not one Democrat willing to challenge the President for his party's nomination. The Democrats are lock-step behind their guy, thinking that Obama can't lose. Oh, yes he...

The first two MIB films were lots of fun; however, the second one clocked in at something like 85 minutes which is an obvious money grab. I suspect MIB 3 may be even shorter, still. Let's see how...

I'm hearing good reviews of the English-language version of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." For those who have seen the new film, I strongly suggest they also seek out the original three Swedish...

Stocked up on 100 watt light bulbs, enough for at least 10 years. Next I'll start buying the 75s and 60s.

F-

Yes, friends, this movie is truly that bad.

Idiotic script. A full one hour into the film, you still had no clue what was going on. One minute the film is showing a woman in a bathtub, the...

I like the Manhattan schist idea.

On a related note, it makes no sense to have built the base with odd angles and now to disguise all that complex engineering and fabrication with straight lines.

Post 473 in this thread is hilarious! The whole thread is hilarious.

Seal needs to get back to working with Trevor Horn.

B+

A very good film worth seeing. Great cast, which includes Jeremy Irons, Kevin Spacey, and Demi Moore.

The annoying part was "The Departed" level of gratuitous F-bombs, which added nothing...

It's big. It's tall. It's shiny.

It's boring.

Two hours of terrific acting, a superb script, great location shots, and edge-of-your seat suspense. One of the best films I have seen this year. Worth seeking out. Don't be surprised if this...

Is there enough room, on the site of the (planned) performing arts center, to build another one of these? I may have asked this very same question a few years back.

What more is to be said for this, a classic film in every respect. Saw it at the AFI Silver Theater and Cultural Center, Silver Spring, MD, as part of their Film Noir retrospective. A fun...
