A: Most likely the adopted daughter (your sister, and no, even though she isn't related by blood - it is still wrong to sniff her panties)

Q: If this forum became "for real fans", deleted your account, and was invite only (you aren't invited), what would you do with your free time?

Something productive, like usual. Paint. Design. Compose. Or just go out.

Q: Just how much time to you spend on forums, blogs and social networks a day?

I dont think i ever will. I think to some extent i will always be playing. I like the idea of coming home from work and sitting down with my kids and playing a few games of something complaining that i dont under stand the game and asking them to explain to me how to play it.

Which film from your youth need to be digitally remastered and why? Not talking about no up to date 3D rendered bullshit I just mean cleaned up and put out on the big screen.

A:
Preserving old films is worthwhile (for example I saw a digital restoration of Metropolis that included a slideshow of stills to fill the gaps of the lost sequences) and all of our cultural heritage is important; but the recent trend is rather to alter old films, adding colour, cutting "boring parts", censoring freely, and so on, and I find it horrible and deeply worrying. (Authors altering their recent films, like the re-released SW trilogy or the too many to count cuts of Blade Runner, are merely pathetic.)

If the question was rather "what old film you'd like to come back to cinemas", as an important commercial offering, I don't think it's a plausible scenario. Old and niche films are confined to retrospectives, home video and sometimes TV.
I think I'd buy a ticket for the fancy, presumably lost version of Walt Disney's Fantasia with multichannel (surround?) sound; I cannot think of anything else that I wouldn't prefer to watch at home.

Q:
What's the plot of the film you want to make?

It's a murder/mystery taking place in a rave/techno club. Think David Lynch weird + drug induced madness. But the plot isn't as important as the whole premise. You will actually hear real DJ mixes in the background, the non-dance soundtrack will be merged with beats so everything blends well. You will NEVER see the killers face, only from the neck down. Even when the killer is moving through the crowd, his face will always be obscured.

Q: What's your favorite book you'd like to see made into a movie?

Yeah the bluray release of fantasia is coming out. I dont think your ever going to get the original version of it though since it is considred a little racist in parts. Unless there is some other version your refering too? I love that film and would like to hear anythign you have to say on it :mrgreen:

Scottish schools are the exact same standard as English schools - it's just that instead of pens everyone has to use deep fried mars bars to draw with, paper is made of whiskey and the tables are just soggy chips and bits of off cut batter.

Q: Would you study well in a place where all the school equipment is so gorgeously edible? (aka do you like heartattacks?)

Charlie Chong is a valuable forum member, standing head and shoulders above the annoying people that are strange but have nothing interesting to say.

Probably, but it's not by freak accident. I'm 35 years old, eat a shit ton of food, and weigh 188cm/81kg (6'3"/182 lbs I think) at . I'm by no means cut or muscular or whatever, but I'm still small by western standards. Helps that I jog 20k a week, swim 4k a week and lift twice a week. I also like long walks on the beach and kiss on the first date.
