Thus you are also somewhat uncertain of the elapsed duration of your incarnation, and could be well upwards of 900 years old. I stand by my demographic assessment.  big_smile

Re: The New Introduction Thread

My name is John. I'm almost 40 and a Californian. I've been lurking for a while and listening for a couple years or so.

My favorite part of DIF, I mean, Friends in Your Head, is that I listen to the podcast and often suddenly want to watch the movie. Even if it's kind of bad.

I don't watch while listening. Unless there's a lot of comments in synch with the movie (ex Rifftrax), I don't see a need to have the movie on at the time. Plus, I think I'm a bit more informed when watching the movie later.

I post because I care.

Re: The New Introduction Thread

No worries, I have yet to actually watch a movie in sync with the FIYH. Or, maybe I did Sunshine that way, but that was such a negative experience I never did it again. Kind of like sleep paralysis: you can try to rage and scream but nobody else hears you.

Re: The New Introduction Thread

Are there many people who do listen to FIYH with the movie?  That isn't snark, but an honest question.  I know the show is formatted around that premise, but most people seem to have a specific place in their lives for podcasts, such as the car, the gym, or at work.  Do many people actually listen to it in perfect sync?

Nope.

Re: The New Introduction Thread

In rare circumstances I listen with the movie; usually on a Saturday night after I've been drinking and I'm alone. My lowest points, basically.

No, but what I do is sync up episodes of UNCOMPOSED with episodes of A PRARIE HOME COMPANION and I can say with certainty that I have SEEN THE FACE OF GOD!

Re: The New Introduction Thread

Since they haven't pre-announced what's getting released when for awhile, the odds of me having the movie is pretty low. Eventually I'll get the disk from Netflix, but often my first listen will be without the movie.

Re: The New Introduction Thread

Hi, I'm Zak. I've been listening since theonering.net made a post about the LOTR commentaries. At first, I was reluctant to listen for fear of this being some sort of mockery of my beloved films, so I played it safe and listened to the Shaun of the Dead episode first. I realized that this is a podcast where people actually know what they're talking about and I could even accept dissenting opinions of LOTR if they were this well informed.
Since then I've, hopefully, vastly matured in the way I think about film and other people's opinions about film. This podcast has been an incredibly welcome companion in the many tedious hours I've spent working at golf courses the past two summers. And when I'm not spending my summers toiling in the fields, I'm working on a degree in radio/tv production and am sort of developing a podcast of my own.
