About as intelligent as arguing endlessly about FRANCOIS => François  ::)
And about this one I have seen this morning one topic who really show the forum as it's worst (just an attack of another user). For one rare time Ken as acted and locked the topic fast

Sometimes I'm completly desesperate when I read the other forum thread  :(

I noticed that "thread lock in the making" earlier on and am glad to see now that Ken already reacted on page 2 :thumbup:

That's why I never read them anymore. I just open them to have them marked as read (and just in case something interesting comes up, which is 1 in a million over there). I don't even vote on contributions anymore. Oh well...

Back on topic:

Here's what I'd have for a MAN/MEN marathon:
007: The Man with the Golden Gun
12 Angry Men
Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
Batman
Batman & Robin
Batman Begins
Batman Forever
Batman Returns
Bicentennial Man
Children of Men
Cinderella Man
Cirque du Soleil: Journey of Man
Encino Man
Hitman
Inside Man
Man of the Year
Man with the Screaming Brain
Matchstick Men
Men in Black
Men in Black II
No Country for Old Men
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
Spider-Man
Spider-Man 2
Spider-Man 3
Superman
Superman
Superman II
Superman II
Superman III
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace
Superman Returns
Superman: Doomsday
The Caveman's Valentine
The Invisible Man
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
The Weather Man
The Wolf Man
X-Men
X-Men: The Last Stand
X2: X-Men United
Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman

43 titles.. Makes for quote a long marathon! I could even stretch further (i.e. Bionic Woman, etc.) :heat:

Yes, I realize Superman 1 and 2 are listed twice. But I do have 2 different cuts of each!

I've made the test to check my collection for the man/men title and this is what I have :

Spider-Man
Spider-Man 2.1
The Elephant Man
The Man with the Screaming Brain
Starman
Grizzly Man
Repo Man
Batman: The Movie
Tucker: The Man and His Dream
Superman 1,2,3,4 and returns
Bagman
She Man
The Wild World of Batwoman
Cemetery Man
The Boogey Man (1980)
No Man's Land (no I will not review this one  :laugh:)
Hollow Man
Savage Man, Savage Beast
Two Girls for a Madman
Men Behind the Sun

Not a lot of title and I don't want to watch some of them again in my lifetime (Spider man (1 and 2) and Superman returns)

The Wild World of Batwoman
Now that's an interesting title...

I'd like to read your review of that (hope I didn't miss that you did that already...).


EDIT:
Looked up some basic information about this on IMDb and now withdraw my comment (not about the title, but about the review).

I may be wrong, but I think Richie means TV series Pilot

I've not watch it for quite some time, but one thing I remember is that the movie is a complete mess. Don't trust IMDB when a film was shown on "The MST3K" serie, usually the pseudo IMDB movie specialists have seen nothing except the MST version. This movie is not so bad and some time it's funny, but I don't think that it's volontary. I have not reviewed it yet, but maybe I will try in a couple of weeks.

Yes, sorry, I did mean pilot episodes - I've got so many unwatched TV series it would steer me into the better ones hopefully

I was only kidding! Of course I know that pilot episodes were being referred to... I thought it was obvious enough not to require a smiley. :stars:

My brain is in a different gear when I read the forum from work.
Your comment did make me go and look for 'pilot' (flying machinery) themed movies though  :cheers:

After getting the "Ocean's Trilogy Box Set" today I had an idea for our June marathon.  How about watching movies with subject and/or title related to water.


P.S: I'm pinning this thread.

A good idea! I'll have to look at my unwatched pile though, to see if it will actually bring me forward...
