For its time: 'The Big Chill'.  I remember thinking that it had a good soundtrack.

the game began @immatthewj , they are removing comments that mention removing comments and the painful and disruptive moderation.  Wow, they got one of mine also, @gano .  I have no idea what I would have typed in that one that offended the dai... 
Dealer affiliations and attitudes, assumptions and lack of respectful engagement in audio.
Can't a person wish against bad things in the abstract and not be censored?  Sorry @hilde45 , I guess not when those things include the words that rhyme with convicted melons.  When the snowflakes read that word, they automatically think of you... 
How competitive are you with your system?
I don't know how or why my system got so darned competitive; I'd like to think that it was just an innate flaw in its nature and nothing that I did, but I am sure that it is probably due to mistakes I made when it was in its formative years.

@gano , first off, there are a couple of members I am trying not to interact on the threads that they are on, because when I do my posts seem to have about a 75% deletion rate.  I won’t mention any screen names, because that would probably be enou...

@hce1  @immatthewj Elephant may bowl you over; it’s gripping. Snowpiercer is a rollercoaster ride, a genre in which I think Bong Joon Ho excels. Get out the popcorn and hold on. I haven’t seen American dreamer, but I’m a big fan of Matt Dillon. ...

Yes, @thecarpathian , Baldwin had (what I believe was a single action type of) a revolver chambered in .45 Long Colt (which is not a round to be sneezed at, although not as powerful as a .44 magnum) and blanks and live rounds would have fired inte...

Actually, a blank is a fully functioning cartridge without the bullet. What most people refer to as ’bullets’-aren’t. That is just the little projectile that comes out of the gun. What goes into a gun is called a cartridge. It consists of 4 part...

@thecarpathian   Want to know another reason to not like Florida? Know what’s the only paperwork required to buy a pistol from a private individual down there? Money. That’s it. No background check, no government paperwork, no registering it, no...

What goes into a gun is called a cartridge. It consists of 4 parts- the casing, the primer, the powder, and the projectile (bullet). A blank consists of 3 out of the four so it sounds and acts identically to a full cartridge without discharging a...

  . . . going back to the differences between a direct impingement AR and an AK variant (a "piston gun"), that is why the DI AR is considered a "dirtier" firing gun.  Possibly one of the reasons that in the early days of the AR, they had a rep for...

Actually, a blank is a fully functioning cartridge without the bullet. But you see, @thecarpathian , what the action of a semi or a full auto requires to function is the gases from the combustion within the cartridge portion of the round routed...

@hce1 , I did some scrolling on my TV and I can get Snowpiercer for free (Tubi) but I am generally not a huge fan of the futuristic stuff.  But I may give it a whirl anyway, when the time is right.  I am going to watch the trailer after I finish t...

@gano  3. when someone requests a gun, they have to hand it over to someone who looks at the magazine. Preferably 2 people, one after another. Then s/he can hand it back to the actor Well, theoretically I believe that would be the job of the a...

Well, possibly so, @gano , and there is no point in us going circular, but as I previously typed, he was an actor on a movie set where actors routinely are pointing guns at one another. (I suspect that these actors are basically taking it for gran...
