Yup. I love you.

Welcome to the forums, bump up any old thread you please.

Hello

My name is Dorian, I live just outside Geneva in Switzerland. I am a part time self employed computer programmer and part time stay at home dad.

Currently working my way through the back catalogue of episodes, should keep me going for a while! My favourite so far is the 2010 Moby Dick episode as it was very interesting to hear everyone's tales of working on it, especially Trey.

I am a fan of all genres of film, and look forward to being here on the boards.

Thanks for all your hard work guys.

Aren't Swede's residents of Sweden?
Welcome to both Arthur and Dorian.

Ah.
I should get out more.

I kind of wish I could say I was a Swede living here in Switzerland but I am actually British. Well, Welsh, if you want to be pedantic!  My French is merde, but I am trying to learn it as fast as I can.

Welcome to the boards Dorian, you're a long way from the valleys 

First of all, yes I was watching Robocop when I signed up. It and the first TMNT movie were in heavy rotation for me as a child. That, plus seeing candyman at age 9 and Seven in theaters at age 11, made me who I am today. Which means most of my girlfriends have asked my parents what the fuck.

I am 28 and currently live in the Indianapolis area, I have lived in Indiana all my life except for a cold, dark year in Michigan. I work as a histotech for a medical company, not what I want to be doing but it's paying the bills. Hopefully I wont retire from it, but there are worse outcomes I guess.

I love all kinds of movies mostly from the 70's till now, I have yet to go back and see some of the classics that came before then. Partly because Im too lazy to find a copy of citizen kane and partly because, fuck you, for saying I dont know a good movie if I havent seen something.

When I was a child I wasnt allowed to watch sesame st or mr rodgers or any of that wholesome give everyone a hug crap. So I probably know a couple orders of magnitude more about classic cartoons such as Hong Kong Phooey, than the average person under 30. I also never met anyone else who has seen or remembers seeing Yogi's first christmas or the good the bad and the huckleberry hound.

I found DIF not long after my dad died. Working nights alone left too much time alone with my thoughts and I discovered it's much more fun to have four friends in my head.

I look forward to being a active member of the forums, be prepared for the occasional dumb question since 80% of my film making knowledge I have learned from DIF.

Damn straight.

Thanks for the welcome.

That book is truly one hell of an artifact. Its many gems include a photo (taken in the 1970s) of Ricky Jay and Carl Sagan. The caption says they are discussing "the possibility of throwing cards on Mars." Jay looks like the lead singer from Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Sagan is wearing a Mr. Furley-style shirt.

So, yeah, that book is about the coolest thing I own.
