    OP posted a couple threads accusing another forum member of defrauding him, and posted pics of shipping labels with personal information of both parties. Thread titles were edited and pics removed, but not before the ban hammer, apparently.

    My wife has been out of town... my top picks

    Promising Young Woman... very odd but good
    Virtuoso... very weird... but okay
    Nomadland... worst movie of the year. Depressing.

    My preferences run more towards something like Animal House or Blazing Saddles but you can't make movies like that anymore. Pity.

    Then Promising Young Woman is right up your alley!

    Never have time for movies, too busy preventing tragedies.... Can't prevent them all though... I am only one super hero... :D;) Cheers, RickO

    Never get to the movies anymore… but surely the best is Airplane! And I did call you Shirley…

    Many coin geeks thrive on drama... and the tragedy is: it usually starts with a deal gone bad.

    If we can add in that someone's girlfriend left them or their dog up and died, maybe someone will write a country song about it. :)

    BEEN THERE / DONE THAT a million times over, unfortunately!!

    And "American Idol" will devote an entire episode to it - - after they stop devoting numerous shows to performing selections from their owner's (Disney) movies.............. :(

    That said, "Airplane!", "Blazing Saddles", "Local Hero", "Office Space", "Fargo", & "Young Frankenstein" are some of my all-time favorites.............

    Hold on, isn't KollectorKing the person that owes another member $100 regarding a 1889cc bet? There was a bst thread about this, I don''t think he ever paid up and he stopped "replying" to that thread once people started saying he should honor his bet

    Glad to see the poof. Always arguing and never addressing questions or comments that run contrary to his lack of reason

    I don't make much time for movies but this one reminds me of the recently watched, Inglourious Bast.....

    Those were literally the first two movies we owned on Betamax videotape. The third was The In-laws.

    I'm really sad to see KK go! :'(

    He was a member, since 2003, and posted some FANTASTIC Walkers! :(

    Maybe they just put him in time out... :/

    I don't think it's fair to say this is death by moderator. It seems a bit self-inflicted. From the posts, it seems many could see this coming.

    Speaking of favorite movies.

    While channel surfing last night I watched the second half of The Hunt For Red October.

    Great movie with multiple legendary actors giving great performances.
