Hi all,

    I'm Vicki and I've been listening to the podcast for a few months now.  I'm 24 years old, born and raised in Hoboken, NJ, birthplace of Frank Sinatra, baseball, and Joey "Pants" Pantaliano (we're particularly proud of Joey Pants).  Right now, I'm attending a local university and someday I may even graduate, although I would probably have to stop changing my major for that to happen (right now, it's Writing).  Anyway, I look forward to having some fun discussing the podcast and everything else with all of you, but right now, I have to stop procrastinating and actually go to class.

Vicki :)

Happy one-year anniversary, Vicki!!!

Hello all.

I am an old member, but I haven't been on here in a long time.  They have really fixed the place up.  A full time job running a sign company, a new baby girl and a return to school will eat up a lot of your internet forum time.

I, like everyone else, love Filmspotting.  I've actually been listening since episode 3.  Back in those days the production value of this podcast was unheard of.  It made the show a stand out and easy to listen to. Besides that, I have always enjoyed the way Adam & Sam and now Adam & Matty approach the films from a fans perspective.  Many critics take a too lofty, snobbish approach to reviewing films.  While they are not scared to say that something is bad, they are equally not scared to say they enjoyed something even if it was silly or not perfect.

Anyway, I should be on here some more since I am finished with school.  I hope I can add something to some discussions.
You don't want to sound like a couple of fanboy boobs.

Fight apathy, or don't, whatever

Hi pehuskey!

Besides that, I have always enjoyed the way Adam & Sam and now Adam & Matty approach the films from a fans perspective.  Many critics take a too lofty, snobbish approach to reviewing films.  While they are not scared to say that something is bad, they are equally not scared to say they enjoyed something even if it was silly or not perfect.

Very well put!

Anyway, I should be on here some more since I am finished with school.  I hope I can add something to some discussions.

Looking forward to hearing more from you - when does school finish?

  Welcome pehuskey - you'll need to steer clear of the resident pervs and hustlers in this place - they are a bad influence... ;D 
  Just follow my lead and you'll do fine.


  Alright...now who stole my rubber gloves and vasoline?
Hey, nice marmot!
