Kubrick is not to my taste ManDee. You must be a hardcore movie fan with eclectic tastes or a sicko. I have to be very drunk to watch Kubrick or simply close my eyes.

Seriously!?

Has directed some dead set classics - The Shining, Full Metal Jacket, Dr Strangelove, 2001 A space odyssey, Lolita...

It is a training thread. I can't understand why you can recognise this.

Ugh, what happened to this thread?

This is what happens to training threads after about 30 posts. The only difference is that we are not ridiculing one another.

Oops I had forgotten some of these classics. My deteriorating mind. Respect Indeed. I take it all back.

Why don't we ridicule the supporters of another club instead. I'm sure that on Collingwood's equivalent forum they're debating the relative merits of Blokesworld.

Fire ravages Collingwood, does $8 million dollars worth of improvements.

Respect!

Only the first half of full metal jacket is good.

2001 is supremely overrated. "Dave's in a RENAISSANCE styled room! Maybe he's being REBORN! SYMBOLISM!"

I was lucky to grow up in Liverpool in the 60's and go to a progressive Grammer School ...

So progressive they omitted spelling?

Not only is the first half good it is jaw droppingly good.

2001 was made in 1968. It is visually stunning still today. You need to watch it again, I get more from it with each viewing.

I find it visually nauseating, even allowing for its age. My biggest problem with it is the pacing, its just far far too slow. Nothing interesting at all happens for massive swathes of the movie.

Now, Clockwork Orange on the other hand is also nauseating, but in a good way that I think was intentional.

I am loving this thread. this site is a wondrous thing. to think that the people lurking on this site are a bunch of tragic one dimensional weirdos. these conversations would not be taking place at Collingwood or Tigerland.

I should have realized that Melbourne fans are a race apart.

I don't log in but read all the time.

Love your post.

Don't pikeout, log-in and join the mayhem. it will lighten your day, widen your horizons, give you a better idea of the vagaries of human nature, better understand the nature of conflict, sharpen your [censored] antenna,

allow you to talk about any subject under the sun, appreciate the sexual inclinations of certain posters (I did not say BBO did I?) and occasionally read about football. And stop you from taking out your frustrations with family or friends. Escape from the real world and enjoy the virtual world. We are all shadows, pretenders, and we delude ourselves into thinking that our opinion is important and matters to others. Of course no one can give a stuff for your opinion. They just want to use your comments as a means of being heard themselves. Remember despite the ratbags and egos we all have one binding mad crazy devotion that binds us (I did not say ties us BBO) together.

Ernie I think these conversations would be happening IN Collingwood! Very hipster these days. And can I add Paths of Glory to the Kubrick list of classics. 1957 WW1 classic with Kirk Douglas playing a similar role to Edward Woodward and his rule 303 line in Breaker Morant. Great movie. But I digress.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
