Youngster's these days don't know about or appreciate the classics.

Couches can sometimes be manipulated in funny ways because there is a lot of dead space in the volume enclosed by a box of the specified dimensions. The other thing: you mentioned a stairwell that I didn't use at all in this context. That definitely makes couch manipulations possible that would be extremely difficult at best if you were stuck in 2-d (basically rotate the couch so the long way goes vertical, rotate about the long axis, bring back down, etc.). Only having one long dimension is probably helpful for that sort of thing - here, with the 29" dimension constrained to be oriented along the door width, going vertical doesn't help because it doesn't present you with a third dimension that is short enough to fit in the hallway.

I'd recommend posting the question in SMP to get some different perspectives, it would not surprise me at all if there's something I'm missing here. And if you think the stairwell is a non-trivial factor, I think triumph is right that posting a diagram would be useful.

All I know about this movie is the one time I saw a preview on TV, but isn't it supposed to be intentional camp?

But I have often found in the yuppie mall in bellevue that basically no one wants to wait while you get off the elevator anymore and would just like to shove on while you are trying to exit so maybe everyone is just a ****ing ******* everywhere these days.
If this was almost certain to happen in a given circumstance, it would be awesome to rally the elevator riders to not get off until the new riders all scurried on and then as a group bust the hell out all at once. This would take great timing and a touch of acting.

I find it impossible to believe Adam Scott took that role unless the movie is much closer to parody than the previews make it look.
08-18-2010 , 10:40 PM
Had no idea Adam Scott was in the movie, maybe it has some redeeming value after all.

They basically ignore the cast in the previews, but it's got a a few names. I'm so perplexed by this movie.
08-18-2010 , 10:51 PM
The movie is intentional camp. I am pretty sure Roger Corman is an executive producer.

Edit: Corman is not a producer, but it is a remake of a Corman movie. Look at this poster ffs.

I never really cared for Christoper Hitchens (ironically because of his "Why Women aren't funny piece eventhough I agree with his conclusion.) Hitchens always struck me as someone who would always let people know he was the smartest person in the room and had contempt for those who couldn't match wits with him intellectually.

That is why I am upset Roger Ebert made me empathize with him in his blog entry from earlier this week http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2010...covered_c.html

I saw my 1st 3D movie last week. 'Cats and Dogs', horrible except I LOVED the 3D so much I sat through the entire thing. Now, there was a time when ppl could only watch porn movies at the 'dirty movie' theater. 3D porn would be awesome and it would only be available in theaters, at least for now. Q for those who know how much it costs to make 3D movies:

Is there any chance of the re-establishment of the 'dirty movie theater' in 3D?

I saw Disco Dolls in Hot Skin in 3-D during college, and while it was definitely an awesome campy experience, it was also TERRIBLE. EDIT: Although I still find myself occasionally thinking about a line from the movie where the protagonist is visiting a shrink and talking about his rough childhood: "It was terrible, Doc. If I woke up without an erection, I had nothing to play with all day."

Anyway, I can't see people wanting to go back to making porn a public affair outside of very limited contexts.

I saw a part of the TV interview and Hitchens looks awful. Please, please something quick for me. Massive heart attack, stroke, car wreck. I'd list anuerysim if I knew how to spell it.

According to the reports it's going to be softcore. So the casting of the men is not going to be significant. (And FWIW, it's a 3D Imax movie)

Anybody else able to back this up, and can our resident CCCMFs maybe explain if there's some weird different cutthroat subway/bus culture that exists in Asia?
Not something I've noticed in the UK. But I did hear that when you're driving in Japan nobody'll let you out unless you are able to make eye contact, whereupon they'll let you out without fail.
