Easy cost-free method of having screen-accurate shoe color!

Post by rick5150 »

I have been having a great deal of difficulty getting my Aldens to match the screen. Finally out of desperation, I adjusted the tint & color of my television until I had the color perfect. Now they match...

Sorry, it is early in the morning...

Finally a man with a sense of humor around here. Rick, the tip of my hat to you this morning for making me chuckle. That was a good one.

As I say to myself, this is just a hobby that gives joy and happiness. If you loose sleep over it, then it's time to take a little break. It's just a movie, it's just a movie, it's just a movie... :-)

Not Real?

Post by Indiana Philip »

Hey, this is no movie, this is real! In fact, it's the third reel of this vintage motion picture, "Indygear Madness" starring Schwammy as the venerable Indiana Jones, Philip as his pesky sidekick, and guest appearance by stunningly beautiful ITG.

Heh, and adding my two cents that make for a neat little fact:

While watching Raiders in Widescreen on the 27" TV in my room I noted that when Marcus is talking to Indy about the Ark, and just before the "You know what a, caustious fellow I am." line, Indy pulls out his S&W hand ejector, pause it right there, it's the exact size of the gun! How do I know? I got my Dad's S&W, exact 1:1 scale! Cool huh? :D But it has to be Widescreen (SHAME on you if you don't have a WS copy!) and you have to use a 27" TV.
