Update: How Was the Show?

An open thread for reports from this weekend’s Cinematic Titanic shows in Chicago. If you have any photos, send ’em along and if we like ’em, we’ll use ’em!

Also: Philip Potempa of NWI.com (in nearby Indiana) needs a fact checker but his heart is in the right place.

Also: A nice little review by Jef Burnham at Filmmonthly.com

Weekend Discussion Thread: What Do We Do?

Alert reader Andrew has a bit of a change of pace:

Awhile ago you had a thread on what Msties find funny. Along that same line, I’d like to know what Msties do for a living. Are we computer-hacking photophobiacs who live in our parents’ basement, or are we other societal cornerstones like firefighters, police officers, professors, or clergy? What do we DO?

Interesting! Okay, don’t give out more info than you are comfortable with. And you don’t need to say WHERE you do it or give specific company names or anything.

Me: I’m an editor at a newspaper. Yes, they still exist. You?
