contemplating is rather relaxing around old sites. away from tv and radio....no buzzing sound from a PSU or a flickering artificial light. just natural light and sound, birds (hopefully with cars way in the background) |
||||||||
|

|
|
haha youll like defend of the crown then....you can buy a castle for 20 gold pieces. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or steal a castle with a catapult that cost 15 gold pieces. |
||||||||

I went to carlise castle and you can see this 10th century graffiti some prisoner has etched on his cell wall, like a wild boar or something, and in the dungeon where they kept people in the dark there is this window that is worn down from centuries of prisoners licking it for moister, very atmospheric places castles, i know i sound like alan titschmarsh, but you can feel the history |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes 15 groats |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
licking a wall for moister thats terrible. but they did many horrible things back then it appears from records. |

sorry yeah moisture, the dark ages and medieval times lots of heinous acts, what i always think is those type of people with the mentality to torture someone with thumbscrews or whatever must still be around, where are they now? probably the stock exchange or the local council I saw the instruments of torture the spanish inquisition had when i went to pensacola in spain that one time, its seemed that they delighted in thinking of new ways to torture us, they could probably apply to be the controller of radio 1 nowadays |
||||||||
|

i cant spell moisture either. : ) some where in the far east hek , maybe even in the west...they used to cut people up alive in various different ways just to see how the body worked.. eg: can they remove a liver? how long can the person stay alive? chop an arm off... can they put it back on? or stitch it to their chest ...with it regrow after fire application? y know really nasty stuff all while the person is awake. there is a video on it on youtue. makes me wanna puke. |

yes i think the new definition of human shouldnt just be if you breath or walk or perspire or whatever, i think your only human if you have some sort of decent level of empathy, now da vinci on the other hand he only did his observations on corpses as far as i know and they are really stunning drawings, i would have loved to have picked his mind, be most of his interesting ideas he never wrote down cos he worried people might have thought them silly |
||||||||

i saw a movie on him, it was pretty good. on youtube. he invented a corkscrew type helicopter and had the mona lisa picture near him allot. : ) im off now.. have a good night Hypiez. :) |

yeah, the vitruvian man reminds me of the southbank show night,! |

What in the hell are you faggots talking about in this stupid thread, can you sum it up so I don't have to read all this HORSE SHIT??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
We are having a civilized dialogue on polemics and philosophy, how dare you suggest i am an uphill gardener of any sort , I'm strictly butter side up, you secretly listen to Eddie Grant in your mothers nightie |

The early concept drawings are really good, this is why i love the internet i just wouldnt have access to this information 20 years ago |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its one of the only films that makes me emotional, cos you really get a sense of the stupidity and indifference that we are cursed with, plus the robots are really lovable, weird how you personify a machine, if you can get attached to a movie robot in 90 minutes imagine what the future is going to be like |
||||||||
|
|

hey Freqy here are a couple of photos of the wood i was talking about the other day, its my brothers flckr account, he takes thousands and thousands of photographs its his main hobby |

also just saw that Red Dwarf is 28 years old today! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
positive paintings that have meaning on the trees, cool. : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
definitely saw the red dwarf connection One scene, DNA as kryten laughs. in the movie there is the same thing as you see outside the ship and hear the laughter echo around. and there is an observation dome in thanks for the memory. i wish more people saw it too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
plus the skutters are like the robots in silent running and a couple of episodes Lister rides around in a and the feeling of isolation you get that too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was right, i wished it went on longer. so it wasnt 4hrs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the pull out camera shot of lister painting the ship outside they had the main charecter look out a window as they pulled out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
could almost hear the red dwarf music. lol. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea, so did you watch it again recently then? i need to get a bathrobe like Bruce Dern's outfit and pot some plants from reading about Red Dwarf there other influence is the film Dark Star by Dan O bannon, John carpenter which was a precursor to Alien |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
potting plants an inspiration you have had ( yoda style) star wars 8 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Freqy speaking of star wars, have you seen this short film that was originally shown before the empire strikes back in some cinemas? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
watch it in hd mode |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pretty good. strange to have a short film before. maybe they didn’t have loads of ads back then. rememebr that cinema jingle vocal that use to come on before a film? like...pah pah..pah pah pah pah pah pah pahpahpah also just thought of the big similarirty of silent running and red dwarf rimmer would say "oh THAT!! ( justice) he also killed all the crew. lol. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ just read paddy kingsland did the sound effects, and the cackling old man was the old man from life of brain who was due to get stoned to death. I know the jingle you refer to yeah im not sure where i heard it though cos im too young to have seen it in the cinema, its one of those culturally ubiquitous things now " Who would put this man, this joke of a man, a man who couldn't outwit a used tea bag, in a position of authority where he could wipe out an entire crew? Who? Only a yoghurt. " |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats it!! how the hek did you find that? so they compile the ads at cinemas. thanks. "Arson..set fire to those sheets" "nice example Rimmer..nice example" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah you can see people in the audience! you can get old cinema projectors from like 10 years ago on ebay cos the bulbs have a limited lifespan but when they came out the units worth like many thousands of pounds but they are practically worthless now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you could probably do some interesting stuff with them but i dont know what |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow.cheap as chips. single lens lcd. its the noise they make though lol. need a control room. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, id probably replace the lense with quality street wrappers and shine it through my mothers living room window at night its amazing what you can get online nowdays, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I always wanted a jet engine but i dont know what id do with it, record the sounds of it starting up, toast marshmallows with it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no helmet gloves |
||||||||

looks amazing fun, i used to watch scrapheap challange alot which had kryten presenting it "raleigh choppers aren't meant to do 50 are they" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sunday tv used to be great, scrapheap challange and time team |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
scrap heap, great show. Really like krytens new stuff too , fully charged and car pool. still hoping for a new blackadder, almost happened a year or two ago. didn't get funding, if i remember. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah i remember reading years ago that it was going to be set in the 60s, i wouldn't mind a new blackadder, but i get the sense as people age like Ben Elton or Richard Curtis the anarchic streak leaves them they become objectively less funny as their brain doesnt work quite the same way, id love to be proved wrong, i remember the back and forth thing wasnt very good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Binky, a sentient bionic doglike being, is in search of friends when he meets Merlin the Magician and a young King Arthur. Follow him on this fantastic exploration of friendship and magic" does anyone on here read many books? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bionic dog sounds like fun.. i always meant to read ben eltons popcorn. popcorn was a movie too, i was meant to see that too. i think as some comedians get old the timing slows down a bit. they improvise a little less and the canned laughter is then turned up. : / |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also ive found as you get older its harder to find stuff funny, well for me personally, obviously i still love humour but maybe its a generational thing i dont find 99% of comedians around funny now, i suppose i know how my parents feel now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i quite like stewart lee sometimes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good one. : ) reminds me of lee evans, he runs about the stage too.. live at wembley was awesome i think he's retired now.. comic strip presents. is cool 4 men in a plane is a good one , not hysterical , just a funny movie. (has nigel planner rik ade and peter richardson) worth a watch if you can find it. ( mr jolly lives next door if you like the extreme rik ade stuff, it is very funny) there are a few modern comedians i like , but i dont like them as much as rik or stephen fry, john cleese, laurel, hardy or Kenneth Williams and so forth i think these hit the main frequencies of my preferred comedy rainbow...everyone else now has to fit in between, that aint easy. There are a few i like but i cant remember their names. they are not all time greats anyway. |

^he does come across as smug i suppose but he is good, generally though i laugh at things that arent contrived, like my mate Colin has a really weird vocab cos he didnt really speak until he was about 4 he says the funniest things but he is just being himself, and my my mutters to herself and that makes me laugh, she is very neurotic and it can be quite funny |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ i meant my mum I had comic strip boxset somewhere i never got round to watching it yet but i remember watching it when i was on tv, i love the monty python films still even if i know all the lines and tropes they are just all time classics |
