Author Topic: Is there anything Ian Price can't do? Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 01-06-2004 06:16 PM                     Ian stopped by to see Young Black Stallion (why?) today and helped out a little in the Imax booth while I sat on my butt and surfed Film-Tech. Everything was going fine until he tried to add a 35mm trailer to the lineup.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Silly Ian. Hey Adam, where's your cardboard and duct tape?  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 01-06-2004 07:20 PM                  Daryl! Welcome back! Your "vacation" was a bit too long!

Start a movie on time. 2. Splice in frame. 3. Take a nap without getting caught. 4. Thread in frame. 5. Get a decent wage. 6. Get more than a 7 cent increase in pay after 4 years. 7. Notice that 7 cent increase in his wage sooner than 4 months after it takes effect. Poor Ian. But now he owns us all.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

I think it is a "tall" thing. Steve  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.

I can see the ladder in the first platter pic And that's not 35mm he's holding ,it's pukka 1570 stock. It 's Ian that makes it look like 35  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

So I guess you are alone there, Michael.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 01-07-2004 10:04 AM                     I'm almost as tall as Ian, and I WISH I weighed that much. Then people wouldn't mess with me because they'd always be afraid I would beat them up at the drop of a hat! I know something Ian can't do... play in the ball pit at Chuck-E-Cheese! You must be under 48" (or is that feet?) =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Gracia L. Babbidge Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 709 From: Bowdoin, Maine Registered: Aug 2000 posted 01-07-2004 10:07 AM                        Thomas - with the ball pit at Chuck-E-Cheese - that height restriction really varies with how busy the place is and the mood of the staff. Dead night + mellow staff = big kids playing in the ball pit.  |  IP: Logged Scott D. Neff Theatre Dork Posts: 919 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Oct 1999 posted 01-07-2004 12:11 PM                        I got "benched" one time for playing too roughly at Discovery Fun Zone when I was in Hawaii with my mom and her friend's family. That was embarassing. I'd like to see Ian sitting on a Super Platter sometime... and if it breaks we can send him around the land doing the world a favor. And for Thomas up there... I wish I was still all tall and uber skinny. Actually, people still call me skinny, and I guess on average, I am but when you go from 6'1" 140lbs to 6'1" 175lbs -- you don't feel too damned skinny anymore. I need to go call Adam now and get the details about the possible shenannigans and tom-foolery comitted after drinks.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!
