Nah, can't be, he just doesn't seem Jack Nicholson'ish... then again, I don't know Mr. Nicholson personally, so I could be wrong.

According to fanmail.biz Jack lives at 12850 Mulholland Drive.

Look around and see if you can spot Penton lurking the grounds on Google maps.

The satellite shot shows hilly terrain perfect for mountain biking.

I do remember that movie (vaguely, like a lot of other movies from the seventies - I have to revisit some of them!).

Which brings me to an actual question:

Could Sony do like Warner and release a Blu-ray edition of a catalog movie that is being released on special edition?

Warner examples: Bonnie and Clyde, Twister

Sony counterexamples:
And Justice for All Deluxe Edition
Midnight Express 30th Anniversary Edition

That would be the perfect time to release a concurrent Blu-ray edition. Why aren't they doing it?

Even the retired unemployed red ants.
I think that my regular readers know that I often say “Have a good weekend” without any hidden meaning.

Be kind to the red ant lurkers, let them down softly, they’ve already had enough to digest over the past couple weeks.

So, 7 to 10 days would take us just beyond the thirty day return period for sales (of things like jackets) through December 24. . . .

You may have something there.

I suggest the red ant crew load up on Pepto-Bismol since they may be in for more nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach & diarrhea in the coming days.

I forgot to give you guys my pick for Thread of the Day.
I’ll give my pick for Post of the Day so that longtime forum readers can hold accountable those that actively campaigned and repeatedly pushed a doomsday scenario for BD50 availability…………….

Nice post dobyblue.

I don't think Jack Nicholson has to make any calls to get better seats at the Grammys. The Lakers let the guy sit close enough to coach -- and the Oscars always have him practically on-stage.

And I get the sense that PM is a bit younger than Jack.

Ah, somebody who is in the biz or follows it closely.

The fact is, they never did "ask" him did they?
That’s why he’s irritated about the casting.

I see the mods moved the thread to the *secret location*.

I guess if people desire to see the outcome of what happens when some Insiders speak for some organizations or give the impression that they have confidential information pertaining to certain organizations to continuously promote a theory to discredit Blu-ray……..you will just have to sign up as a member here rather than lurking as a non-member – to witness the response from an official (Director) of said organization.

In short………..the more the merrier.

I notice that Talkstr8t has now checked in for service.

I guess I’ll work on paidgeek and Richard Casey next.
Casey is a tough one though as I can never figure out if he is laying on the beach at Santa Monica or stuck in some airport without internet access.

Has Richard had that audio shootout thing yet in Upper Marlboro and Northern Virginia?
You may want to ask him about it on his own personal thread as I haven’t followed his posts for awhile.

Later, folks.

xcg001 · 01-19-2008, 09:58 PM

Well, I have no idea who Penton-Man is and where that nick name comes but the only person that I can associate with this nick from people in movie industry I have read/heard about is ********* and if my guess is true I am really humbled.

Penton-Man,

Just to put this to rest: Will we ever see DTS-MA upgrade for the PS3 or is that simply not possible for the system to do?

Thanks

I personally do not the identity of any of the insiders (Bill excluded) nor do I want to know. As the title implies their posting here can be of a delicate nature, however they are careful what they say and when. There will be NO GUESSING anyones identity and anyone that does try will not be guessing here for long.
