OT: Movies/TV Shows

Loved it.

But i have to say i'm not actually gonna read any graphic novels most likely.

This graphic novel was long listed for the Booker Prize a few years ago, and is one of the more impressive graphic novels in recent memory.

Don’t want to say much about it as it can kinda spoil it, but for anyone that frequents the library it’s a great one to take a shot on.



edit: oh shit, you can actually get a digital version through the Libby app, with your library card number if your provincial library carries it……I just logged out a copy to reread it.

Anyone with a library card, should try to give it a read…(it’s also only 204 pages, so it’s a quick read)

Kindle/digital readers have changed the game for graphic novels too…..the ability to go panel by panel in full screen, is a fucking treat.

Oh damn, apparently the MASH DVD boxset gives you the option to turn off the laugh track.

Fuck me….think I might have to buy that.

Literally the only thing wrong with MASH is that it has a laugh track. That's amazing and I need it.

It would be interesting to hear Hawkeye’s rhythmic wisecracks without the punctuating laugh track

 

[Habspatrol]

It should really highlight what I've always said. It's just not a sitcom. It's a drama with a good amount of comic relief.

 

[CH1]

it’s humorous people stuck in a hellish situation.

The laugh track always felt so awkward on that show

Laugh tracks annoy the shit out of me.

Laugh tracks annoy the shit out of me.

They were even used on cartoons. Hanna-Barbera being the cheap-asses they were, cut back on the standard laugh track & sort of used an 'in house' produced one (which has an extremely limited variety of different kinds of laughs & sounds pretty bad).

LoF would love that book.

it's even superjewy.

I *still* haven't gotten around to reading "Maus" for some reason.

Laugh tracks annoy the shit out of me.

but then how do you know when to laugh

but then how do you know when to laugh

Lol, it's not hard. Yes, I know you're being a bit mischievous here.

I can guarantee there are plenty of places where a laugh track "laughs" and I don't in any given show.

Holy shit, the pain from that kind of injury to the face must be off the charts.

I find Jay Leno really odd. He was staying at a Hampton Inn?

 

[zeke]

i think that's what he calls his cuck bondage dungeon.

 

[JackBurton]

That's what Helen Kushnick would do to him regularly.
