I remember going all the way from Midtown Atlanta to the Mall of Georgia to watch I am Legend in the IMAX theater (not shot with an IMAX camera if memory serves), all because they were showing the full opening bank heist scene (which WAS shot in IMAX) prior to the start of I am Legend. Once the bank heist scene was over they showed a condensed trailer that was different from the main theatrical trailer.

this movie would've swept the Oscars


A sweep denotes Best Actor nod as well. Care to revise your thought, or do you stand by it?

Incorrect. A sweep in Oscars parlance denotes winning in every category you are nominated for. Please note Steven Spielberg's words when he announced Best Picture for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King back in 2004. It was nominated for 11 Oscars and won all 11 of them. None of those nominations were for acting.

Same here but looks like I was just a 3 month old tigerdroppings cub that was probably only having some really great takes on the Rant at the time.

I almost said this same thing after I said constant cough. Baloo was one of the good ones.

Looked them up and Baloo posted 9/21. Maybe there's hope that he will come back. I took about a year or two break at one time because I was just burned out so maybe he'll come back.

Looks like constant cough retired the keyboard in 2015. Sigh.

There's definitely others too that were regulars on the m/tv board that don't post anymore but my memory is terrible so I can't remember

Jamhon, etm, and Freaux still post but it was a better board when they were posting more.
