All good things must pass. But if Third Eye closes I'll miss it a lot. I don't find many opportunities for intelligent discussion these days, at least not on film or books or TV shows.

I too would be very sad about that. I've been posting here for many years.

If I go on Elba should I use the same name I use here or a new one?

Probably easier, some do, but I don't.
= up to you.

There isn't much film discussion at Elba at all.
Maybe one movie post a month at most.
And just one thread.
I don't see the benefit.

I'm there for the Knick discussion and the Trump Devastation sucked me into the Politics forum, which is quite polarized and none too civil.

I've been waiting until I get a new visa before I buy a bunch of stuff including a new Dvd player. Stores don't even carry them anymore, and online shopping is all in Chinese, so it's a minor hassle. I might even go BluRay if the price is cheap enough. Once I get a new player, i'll likely watch mor films. The only discs to buy are Blus though. Dvd's have completely disappeared.

I've also been meaning to pull down my many plastic crates of Dvd's and sort through and find more stuff to rewatch. I'd like to go through films from the past ten years or this century and see how some hold up. Ideally I'd plow through my Top 10 for each year, but doubt i'll sort and sift enough to find all of that. The plastic boxes are heavy and most up high in cabinets.

I'm in constant touch with Marc. I could copy bart's post to him. Should I?

Marc is fine. Nothing about Gary since the news that he's in dementia. Sad

Maybe we should just create a facebook page.

I guess I still have a Facebook page, but I haven't looked at it in years. I sometimes wonder if QAnon or some other dark entity has taken it over.

I've created a Facebook page entitled "Third Eye Film Society" which I invited most of you to. If I missed you, please let me know. I invited a lot of friends whom you've never heard of. Please be polite; I care about these people.

I've never facebooked, though roughly 8 years ago I snooped around some old high school friends pages to see what they were up to, what they looked like now and such. But didn't end up contacting anyone or making my own presence known.
