Hehe, yes, the game asks you to adjust your monitor/graphicscard brightness/gamma/contrast settings. Most graphics cards allow you to save each setting so you can very easily jump back and forth between them.

New movie posted in the first thread.
#503
I'll be there,  and 2ma2 said he would be there, not sure though.
#504
Welcome back! Can we expect to see you at Mittens 2003? :p

I'd also like to mention Chinatown, starring Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, directed by Roman Polanski. Easily one of my top 10 favourites, I can't believe I forgot about it :P

Poobungies, some of the movies mentioned, despite being excellent choices (Godfather, Indiana Jones, Taxi Driver among others) have most likely already been seen by a lot of people, which wasn't exactly my original intention with this thread :p.

So, more older movies that people never talk about anymore ;). Many great choices mentioned too of course, I'll keep a look out for them.

There are so many great movies that most people of my generation have never bothered to see partly because nobody hardly ever talks about them. List any older movies here that you think people really should see:

Some movies I saw last year, and again recently ;)

Once Upon A Time In America (1984):
Sergio Leone's crime drama masterpiece, it was just recently released on DVD and weighs at roughly 220 minutes. Stars Robert De Niro, James Woods etc.

Cross of Iron (1977):
Best war movie ever, enough said ;). James Coburn kicks (or kicked, rather) ass.

The Wild Bunch (1969):
Without doubt one of the best (and probably the most violent) westerns ever. Very entertaining! Stars Ernest Borgnine, William Holden, Warren Oates etc.

Hehe, sounds strange Andail, but it should turn out fun :)

Well, as long as that french guy you mentioned isn't part of her circle of friends ;)

Hmm, if you havn't already done it, try running the Setup first.

Tork fan art! My life is complete!
#511
Yes. But not at the morgue.
#512
Hmmm, do you get a jewel case with at least a one page "leaflet/booklet" for each cd? :P
#513
Search the wallet you found on the corpse.
#514
I'd seen it before, but it's very promising indeed :)
#515
Goldmund to the rescue! ;)

Hehe, actually, Carpenter didn't write the music for The Thing,  it was written by Ennio Morricone and I think he used an orchestra. Funny thing is though, Morricone wrote a full soundtrack for the movie, but Carpenter ended up only using one "tune" through the entire movie.

But you gotta love Carpenter's cheesy soundtrack for Assault on Precinct 13.
#517
Hehe, LGM must only have seen Carpenter's last two movies Vampires and Ghosts of Mars if he describes him that way.
#518
Oh yeah,  there are alot of Hitchcock movies I havn't seen, but I really like the ones I HAVE seen.
#519
Hmm, I believe there was a thread like this not too long ago. Oh well.

My personal favourite directors are:

Brian De Palma for: Blow Out, Scarface, Dressed to Kill & the Untouchables
John Carpenter for: Halloween, Escape From New York, Assault on Precinct 13 & They Live ;)
Sam Peckinpah for: The Wild Bunch, Cross of Iron & The Getaway
Martin Scorcese for: Taxi Driver, Goodfellas
Sergio Leone for: The "clint eastwood" trilogy & Once Upon A Time In America
Quentin Tarantino for, well, I like all his movies so far ;)

Also, taking this thing away from them might channel their agressive energies towards other targets, thus possibly harming the friendly atmosphere on the AGS forums. Do we want to have whole threads filled with mocking and hatred? Do we not want to feel we know the person called "LilGryphMaster", "m0ds" or "DGMacphee"?

Haha, good one Barcik :p
