Re: TCM announces it is sunsetting the TCM Forums

The last post was by scsu1975, at around 10:10am EST in LawrenceA's topic "Redeem Days Won" , under "Problems with the Message Boards" I think it is totally appropriate that Tor Johnson's agent had the last word! https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/PlanNine_10.jpg

Re: TCM announces it is sunsetting the TCM Forums

Bagel has always been a respectful and interesting poster, so I’m inclined to accept the concerns he expressed. Regarding what you just wrote, it does seem a little odd to me that the TCM Mod announced the sunsetting on Oct. 19, and the new board went live a day or two later. I wonder if there was i...

Re: TCM announces it is sunsetting the TCM Forums

Wait — I did notice that Bagel’s comment was deleted, and my rather tame response to it. Are you Bagel? No, I was Sukhov. The deleted comment was something I said in the “TCM message board replacement” thread which was pruned. I see that the thread was moved to Off Topic and several posts have been...

Re: TCM announces it is sunsetting the TCM Forums

Bagel made an interesting comment as to why he would not frequent the other site. I responded more or less saying that we should give it a try, though it’s not best practice to have a site with only one moderator/administrator. Those comments have been deleted, which is cause for concern.

Sorry for my ignorance, who is Mr. MacDonald?

It was down, and now it seems to be live again. I just posted.

Hi Miles, nice to see you here.

Re: Bad Movies You Love

I have a problem with the title of this thread, because if I love a movie, then by definition, it's a good movie!

Re: Finally here, hooray

Hi Tiki, nice to see you here! For some reason, it didn't seem possible for me to use the name "Swithin," so I chose another Anglo-Saxon saint's name. I would change it back to Swithin, but there doesn't seem to be an option to do that. I may keep trying. My avatar is a photo of Alan Turi...

Re: Call Northside 777 (1947)

I love this film and the climax at the end with the blow-up of the newspaper date. What a performance from Kasia Orzazewski in that scene on the stairs with Stewart near the beginning. So real. Unusual to see Richard Conte in a passive role but of course he did it well. As for Bette Garde, I just l...
