Bingowings

There are lots of situations which cause visual and audio hallucinations and the sense of presence in a room. Lack of sleep or sleeping disorders (very likely considering the time you are experiencing these symptoms), undiagnosed epilepsy, use of cannabis all the way to emergent schizophrenia. My advice would be to see a doctor.
Specific genres of anything will not have any difference beyond that you ascribe to it. Your attitudes and responses to art forms could be distorted by a dip in mental health. If you find any kind of stimulus unpleasant you should stop it.
Here are some Tommy Cooper gags :

A) I mentioned it in the existing fan edit thread http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/The-Force-Awakens-Fan-Edit-Ideas-SPOILERS/id/46843/page/3
and B) it doesn’t warrant another thread just for discussing.

Nice idea though.

Thank You Lord Vader, But Our Princess is in Another Castle

Maul vs Vader is almost a certainty now only this time it’s canonical. Battle of the crotchless.

It would work better if Palpatine mentioned Padme first and Vader dismissed the relevance of her status. He no longer cares if she lived or died.

It was fun to see the animated Resistance tactical screens in TFA looking rather like Ady’s animated Rebel screens for ESB:R BTW
So many bits of that film are like ideas mentioned on these threads.

Have Han Solo owe money to Culture Club.

The music I was gonna use for the intro, was the unused opening for The Empire Strikes Back, part of the opening music from A New Hope, and part of the Asteroid field music from The Empire Strikes Back. It’ll be a mix of the three. Trust me, you’ll like it.

Here’s the first part of the song:

1:26 to 2:29

Second part of the song:
https://youtu.be/j1pf6s8MGrs?t=2m18s
2:18 to 2:40

Third part of the song:
https://youtu.be/vVulaCFNL4A?t=3m42s
3:42 to 3:55

Fourth part of the song:
https://youtu.be/vVulaCFNL4A?t=14s
0:14 to 0:40

Fifth part of the song:
https://youtu.be/vVulaCFNL4A?t=1m40s
1:40 to 2:03

And so on. My soundtrack overhaul is a mix and match of all the music from all six films.

Songs have lyrics.

Where did the stereotype of ‘oriental’ music come from?
You hear it the background of films from a certain period whenever there is a shot of a Chinatown or someone from Japan.
It’s an embellishment to such hits as Kung-Fu Fighting, Turning Japanese and Japanese Boy and yet I know of no indigenous music types that sound like it.

It’s just taken for granted that it’s a short hand for the East.

Oliver Cromwell is one of the best historical anti-villains ever. Why can’t SW films experiment with such morally gray characters?

Too Soon

Theists, don’t let your babies grow up to be creationists. It will spell only disaster.

Well… if you have eight of them and they wear tee-shirts with the right letters on… and they stand in the right order.

You could have TPM Nute watching ROTS on his view screen and pushing the pause button.

Mr Snow is a Northern Bastid.

Vodou interests me. Not the Hollywood black magic bullshit, mind you, but the real-life religion itself. I should study up on it (along with Hinduism).

You remind me of the babe.

Even then Yoda is probably not your man. In the Hammer Dracula Van Helsing is a very physical person. Running along tables leaping up to pull down heavy curtains etc.

1931 Van Helsing isn’t, though.

Mexican or American? In the book he is quite active too for an older gent with no sense of tact.

I was reading the forums last night and a fly buzzed in front of the screen. I managed to pick up my laptop and take it and the fly outside. Eventually the fly got bored and went to find out what a street lamp was up to.

There is a long-standing meme that there’s only one member here, and it’s Bingowings. Everyone else is just his alternate accounts.

This is what the forums look like in action my dear :

Yoda is spiritual.
His powers are philosophical and defensive.
They should have made Master Conehead into a bigger character and have him brainy (there must be room for at least three walnuts in that shell) but capable of swashbuckling.
The acting and direction and writing of the love story has nothing to do with depictions of mental health conditions and everything to do with George’s actual arrested emotional and artistic development.
He thinks like an 11 year old (and sometimes this is his strength) Only really gifted actors and directors can get those thoughts to feel like something real people might do.

Is the romance between Anakin and Padmé really that unrealistic? I think it is a psychologically accurate portrayal of a woman falling in love with a man suffering from Bipolar Disorder, an occurrence which happens much more frequently than you would imagine.

What?

I liked the one with the gays.

One that sometimes gives me pause is Spaz.
For a generation of UK people Spaz or Spastic was an incredibly offensive term of abuse based on the once common description of someone with Cerebral Palsy.
But it’s a harmless term of general clumsiness in America.
I would watch shows like Buffy which were for their time quite progressive and then they would use the term Spaz and I would feel weirdly uncomfortable.
From the same epoch was Mong (an offensive term for someone with Downs Syndrome) or Joey (Origin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joey_Deacon). I recently caught someone my age using Mr Deacon’s name as nostalgic term of abuse in one of his youtube videos, the bloke may have been dead since the 1980s but it still feels wrong to me.

And now you also know what Bingowings looks or sounds like.

Sometimes…
The most amazing change Ady has made is getting that hair cut 😄
