You are correct, but before he was phnatomX and STChaser, he was carcharios.  He changes his name so people won't know who he is, but it's usually pretty easy to figure out when the topic of dalembert comes up :)

I could list my favorite movies, but first i'd have to ask you to pick a genre.

Can I just say though, that finding nemo is the worst pixar movie ever made and no one can convince me otherwise....

Finding Nemo... hmm... let me see what other ones there were. *checking list*..... I haven't seen them all but I think I would agree with you.



1.  Toy Story
2.  Toy Story 2
3.  Finding Nemo
4.  Monster's Inc.
5.  Wall-E
6.  Incredibles
7.  Cars
8.  Bug's Life
9.  Ratatouille

I have to see Wall-E I guess. Both people I know who saw it said it was sub-par. And they are fans of these kind of films

Pixar should not make sequels, Toy Story 2 does not exist in my universe.  Tops for me is The Incredibles.  I love the super-hero genre and the subtle parodies and voice work were excellent.  I saw Wall-E last week and liked it, but it is not one of those Pixar movies I could watch over and over again, although I am sure my kids will.

Now I know what "Carch" refers to when you guys were having pissing battles.  It is completely un-enetertainig to watch people re-hash the same personal battles over and over.

Then agin, I'm sure I've put up my fair share of un-entertaining posts, so I'll stop casting stones.

Welcome Sub to our refuge.  We do usually talk about more interesting things than Pixar films, although I am more guilty of O.T. posting than some.

I'm well-versed in the Pixar films. Have to say Ratatouille was a very pleasant surprise, definite top-3 for me, along with Incredibles and Cars, which is my sons favorite.

BTW- this type of unique contribution is why I want to get Knux over here:


From the Carney appreciation thread:
Quote
Knux-Future wrote:Ahh I'll miss ol DUNKZ HAWD.......and with that here my ode to Carney...

What a year it was in 2006
for the frist time in ever we has a draft pick.
While Bk couldn't sign dudes to save his life.
He had drafted palyers with such strife

Looking at the the propects were we sat.
we all said that Ronnie Brewer was were it was at.
We was atletic and could play d.
If we we had picked him it would be good for me.

BUT then came the the faithful draft night.
Brewer should've been the pick, I knew Billy would pick him despite....
I had a very uneasy feeling inside me that wish wasn't true..
for i has actually feared what King might do.

Our came and picked a guy named Thabo..
I was ready to go ship BK to Cabo.
Hadn't he learned from that bum ER!
I was going to drown my sorrows in a bar..

BUT Then a trade came over the speakers.
Alas there was hope, so i took off my Sneakers
I once was deader than Jim Varney...
But then we had picked Dunkz Hawd Carney!

At first I was quite happy..
Outside of Dala, our swings were quite crappy.
Carney dunk, run, and supposedly shoot.
I was quite sure we gotz some phat loot.

However as the years went by.
Carney kinda sucked, and I didn't know why?
This gusy was supposed to do many things.
I had thought he would bring us some rings.

A year past and we got a new rookie.
AI was gone and the new one wanted one to many cookie
Carney was now only a star in the the summer league.
He was the new John Salmons and that made me peeved.

The year went on and we struggled out the gate.
Carney could only see dissaster in his wake.
He airball shots, and even a dunk
This dude rite hurr was in quite a funk.

Finally he just realized
I'm not a true number one you guys.
So he looked for a new calling card.
Carney decided that he would DUNKZHAWD!

With bunnies and quickness he had played.
the best moment of the year is when he owned Wade.
No longer would he make us be mean..
Now we focused our hate on Mr. Green.

Alas, his time here has come to a end.
And while he didn't do much to get us our win.
Carney will always be a favorite of mine.
I will remeber his Hawd dunkz all the time.

He might not had turned out like I planned
but ****, this dude did help us get Elton Brand.
Carney many never be seen again.
But he will DUNKZ Hawd once more my Friend.


DUNNNKZ HAAAAAAWWDDDDD!!!!

I'll miss ya buddy.

Johnny... did you see Hellboy II yet? I'm going to go see it tomorrow afternoon and am wondering what your thoughts are. Also, I just got Batman Begins on blu-ray and it included the first 6 minutes of DK... that film looks awesome.

Probably because we are very different...:)  Though it is folly to say you know someone through the dim lens of a discussion board.  From what I gather from your postings on RealGM/76ersCCC and here, that seems to be the case.  I have 3 kids 5 and under and have seen most of these movies a minimum of 30 times, maybe my list is reflective of which ones hold up best with multiple viewings....:)

Whatever you say, assume away about how many times i've seen pixar films or how many i own, but yours is the only list i've ever seen that dismisses the work of brad bird so much within the pixar lexicon...I know i'm in the minority of people who think finding nemo is a festering poo pile, but i am not the only one....you're the only one i've seen who lists rataouille in the bottom like that
