Tonight’s Channel4 report on Cambridge Analytica:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cy-9iciNF1A
Alleging breaking of financing rules by the Trump campaign because…
- Steve Bannon on board of CA
- Steve Bannon Trump Campaign strategist
- CA claim to have masterminded the Trump campaign
- CA financed by billionaires the Mercers (and on board of CA)
- Trump campaign financed by billionaires the Mercers
- Pro-Trump/Anti-Clinton adds made by CA, funded by Mercers outside of declared spending via “make america number 1” Super-PAC
…a Super-Pac which claimed they are “not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee”. Sounds reasonable.
Alexander Nix has now been suspended. Facebook being investigated by the FTC. UK’s Information Commissioner applying for warrant to search London offices of CA.

‘Steven Spielberg Will Never Digitally Enhance His Movies Again’…
https://screenrant.com/steven-spielberg-movies-digitally-enhanced-et/
Journalist: ‘You’re such a perfectionist and special effects have changed so much in the last 30 years. Have you ever considered going back like they did with Star Wars? Maybe just putting in some shots in E.T.?’
Steven Spielberg: ‘Well, I got in trouble for doing that. When E.T. was re-released, I actually digitized 5 shots where E.T. went from being a puppet to a digital puppet and I also replaced the gun when the F.B.I. runs up on the van, now they walkie talkies. So there’s a really bad version of E.T. where I took my cue from Star Wars and all of the digital enhancements of A New Hope that George put in, and I went ahead, because the marketing at Universal thought we need something to get an audience back and see the movie so I did a few touch up in the film, and in those days, social media wasn’t as profound as it is today but what was just beginning, you know, erupted a loud, negative voice about how could you ruin our favorite childhood film by taking the guns away and putting walkie-talkies in their hands among other things. So I learned a big lesson and that’s the last time I decided to ever mess with the past. What’s done is done, and um, I’ll never go back and do another movie I’ve made and I have control over to enhance or changes.’
I tell myself it’s the Twin Suns just not reflecting on it from that angle (and am also kidding myself!)

Harmy has put up a video on youtube - just to remind everyone that Fan Edits must never be bought or sold.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrwKZHv4OS0
It’s a great video, but I’m surprised it still needs to be made today. Spending money on a fanedit in this day and age would be like spending money on pornography. It ain’t 1999 no more.
The quicker, easier, more seductive path is one a fair few people seemingly choose to take (or a lack of knowledge that these are available for free elsewhere)…
And it’s easy money for these parasites who list them.
Leeches who also delete Harmy’s comments (and others’) from their sites and youtube channels.
And I still buy Playboy subscriptions for the ‘articles’, dammit 😉

Best of luck mate.
I don’t want to seem rude or anything, but you’re constantly making the proposition to mate with other members of this forum, and, well, I don’t mean to be a prude but it makes me very uncomfortable. Could you please discuss such matters in PMs instead?
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Team MFM.
For you mate, anything 😍

wow that’s astonishing. TLJ is really beautiful.
Aye, some lovely work - hope the lad/ladess who knocks them up does a few more (and also the other films too 😃
I haven’t seen Churchill (and likely won’t) - yet it always raises a chucle inside when the Best Pic doesn’t win it’s own genre category too 😃

Mini audio help pls.
Audio samples: http://rgho.st/7zsqgw9TJ
Which better audio? V1 or V2?
I am no expert - but I prefer V2 (‘sw4.aac’, 1.4mb) - the audio seems clearer - with more bass.
You may get more responses if you also post your question in the ‘Star Wars Preservations and Other Fan Projects’ section too.
Good luck puzosep 😃
‘Concept art from the unreleased episodes of Star Wars The Clone Wars’ (seasons 6-8)…
I don’t believe it. Why would they just walk away from it when it’s doing so well? From what I gather, it’s meant as an end to Phase Three, but there are still things planned to come from Phase Four.
Like a season finale rather than a series finale, if you will.
😉
Seems as good a Muppet thread as any for this…

OT•com’s own very special Count-ing thread:-
The Anyone (formerly Vampire) Sharing Counting Thread (was The Count’s Counting Threat)
For me… Muppet Treasure Island and Muppet Christmas Carol are the Muppet films I enjoy the most, with a special place in the heart for the 2011 Muppet film - for bringing it to a new generation of kids (and a reminder for us oldies that there is plenty of life for more Muppet releases).
That’s not to say I dislike any of the other Muppet films (I’ll still stop and tune in when there’s a Muppet film on tv 😃) - just that those three films stand out above the enjoyable other films for me.
Forum moderators should treat every one the same, show no favorites and not let their political leanings cloud their judgement. Just a random thought I had about forum moderators in general on any forum, not anyone specific.
.
not sure what that is supposed to mean.
It’s a placeholder - a reminder for me to come back to this - when I have time to do so.
