Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly Kill This Thread XXI - Fully Legal

Welcome to......

Kill This Thread XXI !!!

The following rules were established by Kent at the start of the first 24-hour version, adapted from the original rules by EDE:

The rules:

1. The Basic Idea: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!

2. Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and response nses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.

3. In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.

4. So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.

You all might as well give up now!

So when you indicated that I might get to win the last round... well something went a bit wrong.

You had your chance. Didn’t you have a reminder to post to the thread? What happened?

thoth must have forgotten!

Not a reminder to post to the thread. Just to that post a while ago. I thought Ibby wouldcrespond to your post.

I have to admit, I'm pretty surprised that a post about gay adult movies would kill a thread...

Gay adult movies are just that powerful

And yet I don't recall any of these powerful films winning an Oscar. Is this more discrimination?

it certainly is the type of topic I would respond to, adult gay movies

I had a very busy day at work then, though.

You should see the Celluloid Closet

I did look at the list of films that it contains footage of.

I am trying to borrow Dracula's Daughter from the library. The catalog says that it is in and that I am first in line, but it has been that way for weeks. I think it might be lost.

One of my friends almost lost 6 of my Legion Lost issues. It took half a year to get them back.

Ah, Countess Zaleska. I remember it more for the camera work than for the plot.

Camera work is one of those things that is best judged by the standards of its time.

Oh, I don't know. I watch older films with my brother. Quite often the cinematography still stands out. You can see where later people have tried to imitate it. Quite often they've not succeeded, even with the technological advances.

Funny, I was just watching yesterday a yout tube entitled "Why RAY HARRYHAUSEN is AWESOME".
Never knew the guys name before but he is obviously someone we owe much of our special effects to.

I made sure to see Jason and the Argonauts on the big screen the last time it played, just to see his effects.

Ah, Jason and the Argonauts. The greatest gathering of heroes in Greek mythology. The Justice League of their time.

And the ancient Greeks would bristle at the comparison. "We did it first! The Justice League copied us!"

I think the ancient Greeks would be more like "Why are there women? And why aren't the men nude?"

Surely the Ancient Greeks could be distracted by the adult male films that killed the last thread while Jason & the Argonauts got made.

Many versions of the Argonauts include Atalanta as the only female member.

Showing that the "token female character" has really ancient roots...

I wonder if she was the Argonauts secretary like Diana was for her super teams.

Quite an honor for her, to be secretary,no? Most women just served wine and meat! *sarcasm*
