AAAAaaaayyyyYYYYooooOOOOOO!
Figs my man, hows it going? Going good so far.
Get up to much last weekend? Last weekend was a pretty lazy weekend. Sunday had a bunch of friends over for a BBQ while the weather was still nice. Finally quit my WoW account to move on with my life, it's a big time waster.
Any plans for the upcoming weekend? Not yet, usually I play it by ear. Probably clean up the house a bit and finish reading the book i've been working on that I keep having to put down due to other things.
What sorta tunes you into? Rock, Hard Rock, Metal and some Classical.
Have a particular favourite genre or are you eclectic? For the most part i'm eclectic. Horror for the most part is my favorite genre but the last 10 years haven't been that great for that genre. After horror I would have to say my next favorite genre is Westerns and Sci-fi.
Favourite movie ever? Tough one. Either Jaws, Godfather II or The Good the Bad and the Ugly.
Favourite actor ever? Kurt Russell or Charlton Heston
Most memorable action scene in a movie? Probably the last part of Terminator 2. From the break-in into Cyberdine to the final chase/fight with the T1000. That or the Morpheus rescue in The Matrix.
What do you do to earn that money? Work at an insurance company but plan on selling stuff on Ebay. Mainly my Bowen and Sideshow Collectibles statues.
If money wasn't an issue, what would be a job you would love to do simply because you would enjoy it? Writing novels, comics or i'll be happy with just movie reviews.
At this precise moment, what film are you most looking forward to that is in production? Doesn't necessarily need to come out this year. The Avengers film as well as Thor and Captain America.
Favourite western film? The Good the Bad and the Ugly
Favourite character in a western? The man with no name
Anyways peace out fella.
What does your name stand for?
My last name is Figueiredo. Fig/s has been my nickname since gradeschool.
I once mistook you for a teenager. Now I can't help but think of you as an old man. Why is this?
Hahaha! I'm not sure. What gave you the idea that I was a teenager? If I had to guess it might have been because of my temper and heated debates I used to get into, close to when I first joined the Hype when my username was Figmanj. I have no idea why you think i'm an old man now. I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing since it seems better than being thought of as a teenager.
Top 5 best posters in this forum? State why. I'm just going to throw out some names since there are more than 5 people that I would probably list.
1. Ace of Knaves - Good guy, definitely someone you could toss a few back with.
2. Sarge2.0 - Good knowledge of foreign films.
3. You - You got a good eye for women and give some great rebuttals
4. JaD - Really nice guy and he made me an Avy or two in the past
5. Episode29 - Really good film reviews
Top 5 worst posters in this forum? Explain. I'm going to ***** out on this one since I can't quite think of 5 that I would refer to as worst. Here's just a few.
1. SonofKrypton - He may have been right about Avatar breaking 1 billion but he was too obsessed with the film before he had even seen it which really showed the bias in his arguments.
2. superhero - Always purposefully mispells things and capitalizes random letters.(I think this is the right poster, if not sorry superhero)
Since you have experienced the hype train that was TDK, do you plan to stay when the sequel comes around? If so, do you expect it to be as good (or bad) of an experience?
I do plan on staying for the next film. Honestly, for this film I think i'm going to stay away from spoilers as much as possible. I'm excited for the movie but I spoiled myself too much with TDK and don't want to do it again. I'll talk it up for awhile with speculation and whatnot but will avoid early clips and most spoiler tags.
There's one thing I can guarantee. With how bad these servers have been lately...when big news is announced for the 3rd Batman film...this site will be inaccessible.
The Hype: What made you stay here? How long do you plan to stay here? What will likely make you leave?
What made me stay was a lot of the people here. I've tried numerous other message boards and i'm sure a number of people might disagree but this board has a fair balance of good film fans. A lot of other forums are filled with overtly cynical people who seem to loathe everything.
Never thought about how long i'll stay here, probably for quite a long time. This is one of the few places in life I can actually find people who also like to talk about film with more depth than your average person. Most of my friends that I can talk to film about don't usually get into it as much as I do and are more casual film goers.
I would probably leave if the majority of the members that I like were leaving. A lot have stayed but a lot of left already.
Most importantly, **** or ass?
