Which is why reading books is a terrible idea.

Agreed

2001's space flight stuff made its name but you had to read the book to make sense of everything else. Amazing effects with 60s' technology but a loooong film that had you scratching your head several times as to what was happening.
I'm not sure it's in any way comparable to Alien other than both are sci-fi. Alien is in many ways an old fashioned horror film that cuts down on costs by only suggesting the monster for a great deal of the film. Special effects were old school really, shadows and smoke for suspense etc. I'd compare it with 'Them!' but with money behind it and some modern blue-screen stuff. And Sigourney Weaver in her undies.

Them! was tops.

What? if the single was "My Baby" I can understand the idea

*Regardless of dodgy record company treatment they didn't tread the boards over there like AC-DC or INXS for example

+The Angels, Rose Tattoo, Hoodoo Gurus, Midnight Oil, Noiseworks, Little River Band, maybe forgetting some more, point is all fared better in the states than Chisel.

Dig in and be doing 5 or more gigs a week for a couple of months like they would've been.

Very scary back in the day. The Monolith Monsters, The Giant Claw with its appalling continuity as the monster kept accidentally changing size, etc. Now that was sci-fi!

In Adelaide this weekend.

Gawler Central train
circa Nurlutta, Thursday night.
Large chick jumps on with Holdens top, talking loudly on her phone.. "how was my day? Shit, someone held a knife to my throat.. threatened to stab me cos I wouldn't give them a refund.. ****ing campaigner customers.. Actually it wasn't too bad apart from that"

Gawler Central train
Circa Womma- right now
Chick wearing a black hoodie arguing loudly with her boyfriend:
"you don't get to touch me, you've touched me enough this morning"
"sexually "
"I'll have you taken to the cops for sexual assault that's what I'll do"
Guy pipes up, actually sounds like Damo and Darren, interminable mumbling ensues..
5 minutes of nasal abuse and argument follows
Random passenger pipes up, "keep it down you're making people feel uncomfortable "
Girl threatens physical violence on passenger
Girl threatens physical violence on boyfriend from passenger
Get off at Salisbury from different doors, yelling argument about which direction to leave the train platform follows

Gawler line, never change

Haha yep, due to the 60s group The Angels, best known for that hey now, hey now, my boyfriends back.

Still a cool name but. At one stage I think it was also "the angels from angel city"

I thought it had more to do with another band that was around during the 80's called Angel but you could be right

****ing lol. Sitting having a shit and some guy rocks up and starts having a piss and he goes "Aahhhhhhh...this is getting ****ing ridiculous. Damn prostate."

Surely he didn't realise I was in the shitter.

I really like browsing bigfooty, but they are really shooting themselves in the foot by disabling tapatalk. The mobile site is horrendous in comparison, and I'm going to be spending a whole lot more time lurking on reddit using ablienblue than lurking on here if they actually go through with disabling it.

I remember using a public toilet as a kid, the guy next to me, i don't know what he ate but he was doing some major spray painting and was in some obvious distress, to this day i haven't used a public toilet for a shit.

Weak and short lived.

Tapatalk is shit

Tapatalk is shit

I believe that this is their positioning statement.

 

[Forzaport]

Tapatalk has its faults but I reckon it's still faster than using a mobile browser.
