Hey folks, my name's Luke, and I'm sort of ashamed that I'm only joining the forum now, seeing as I've been listening to DIF since 2011.

The show has really helped me look at movies differently, and learn what might be bothering me specifically and why in a movie. I honestly think I've learned more from Down in Front and Half in the Bag about films and filmmaking than anywhere else.

There's not much to say about me, so I'll just tell you that my three favorite films are The Big Lebowski, Ghostbusters, and The Blues Brothers.

Thank you!

I guess that means I'm off to a good start?

I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist... Nice to see another Lebowski fan here.)

Lebowski lovers of the world—unite!

(This is the part where I admit that, when I joined the DiF forum, there were about 1.5 seconds there during which I considered taking on the username "Karl Hungus." Instead I used my actual name... which doesn't have any of that porno pizzazz.)

The awesome genre.

aye I'm a lad, cheers for the welcome.

lol, Mr. Baseball is the last film I expected to find a fellow fan. I watched it again recently, and it's still funnier and more charming than most comedies made nowadays... albeit a totally predictable fish out of water, culture clash sports movie. Tom Selleck never got to be Indy, but he still has a few underrated flicks to his name, including An Innocent Man and Quigley Down Under.

Thanks.

Hello World

As you can see, I'm Michael. I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Colorado Boulder--in fact, as of yesterday I'm a Masters student  . I have taken a couple of film classes, so I'm already more of a film snob than 90% of people I know IRL.

Been listening to DIF since Confused Matthew brought up the Intermission on Film Criticism where he was mentioned, and now I have finally given in to the demands to join the forum--just in time for the show to be renamed.

We're neighbors! And congrats on the masters! If you go to Boulder Startup Week mayhaps I'll see you in person.

And welcome to the forum!

Hah. I get it.

Hi Shiny, welcome to the board. It's nice to have more people from our little corner of the planet here, but let's call a moratorium on sheep jokes.

Unles they're sheep jokes about Tasmanians. They're still fair game.
