No One Knows Who They Were or What They Were Doing

Before Twitter and Reddit ruined the internet, there were online forums. It was the wild west of opinions, and despite the trolling, it was also a welcome time where fellow people from all over the globe could discuss the arts openly.
 
It's only a matter of time when the plug is finally pulled on another abandoned site I once used to frequent, and with the preservation of the past heading in the direction of the futuristic library in Rollerball (1975), here are some film related opinions that are far more entertaining than anything Robbie Collin or Anna Bogutskaya ever wrote.
 
Photobucket and TinyPic are effectively dead and Imgur won't let me upload some of these treasures as they're in some weird file format, so I felt obliged to archive them here on this forgotten corner of the internet.
 
Et voilà!

































































































Millennia from now, mankind's cyber-archaeologist descendants from Tau Ceti’s sixteenth planet will attempt to decrypt the very purpose of these image files in a similar vain to us pondering over Stonehenge today.

I slept on Cash Rulz' CYE posts.

That Gloss tagline on Sicario 😆 🧐

Mindbender typically with the worst opinion.

I miss BARRY LURKIN. He used to reply to my blog too.

Roy Johnson was an underrated poster on CYE.

His Scarface quote always cracks me up.

Yeah, Roy had terrible Boom-Bap dinosaur opinionz about Rap, but his movie/TV posts were great.

Link this post on the baby blue. It'll be the first non-T.R.O.Y post of 2023.

No real point, it's like Fat Beats Amsterdamn there now.

Glad I didn't go the Twitter route, though.

Anywhere But Twitter™ is the motto to live by.

Spartan said...

Some of the worst opinions on there.

😖

Don't even get me started on terrible Twitter opinionz about music and sport.

Feeling like Ian Richardson in Dark City everytime I read anything from that cesspit.

This post might have broken the blog. Only able to see two blog posts on the front page on my phone.
