More fun Editing...

More fun use of edits... Lets see, he swears Steve Forbes never blinks for 2 minutes, makes joke about it while talking to a doctor, then he never shows us. I guess we have to believe him cause he said so.

What about the 4 checks he wrote from funny, yes funny, bogus groups contributing $ t Perot, Clinton, Buchanon and Dole. I don't remember what he said about Dole. I think he skipped him. Maybe cause his reply did not match what he wanted people to believe.

Let me guess, they're shooting at 24fps 35mm, then converting to 29.97 in NTSC interlaced... This was all a linear edit, so... Yeah, you're right, he must have increased the non-blinking time by at least 6.84 seconds.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the film, and I'm glad I just killed this thread.

How does a scene in "the Big One", not have anything to do with the film?

I don't recall the full 2 minutes being shown on film. Petite Chris, was the film sped up? Or for at least that scene.

Look at me replying to a four year old thread! Let's see: Since this thread was started, I've lived in three different states, gotten married, been to several close friends' weddings, got a job and then quit three and a half years later, was in a band for two years, started to learn Spanish.

This thread is great—it's like a time machine!
