muhammedboehm Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Who was the guy who rebeled against the board by creating his own?
jstout Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Who was the guy who rebeled against the board by creating his own? Wasn't it www.deathvalleydriver.net? Did the "bacon strip" guy get banned?
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 No, Kurt is posting under another board handle I think.
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Who was the guy who rebeled against the board by creating his own? I think that was Andrewbulous, but Zhixel actually built the Kaiju board. Isn't Kurt like, Lawful Evil? Yep. Something like that.. I wonder how many bannings there were due to the Current Events/Politics folder. Not nearly enough. I ran into former CE board moderator, SatanPro, like two weeks ago. I don't think he recognized me or my kid. My daughter was like four years old the last time he saw us at Dean's for the final and monumental Dorkfest of 2006 featuring BattleARTS and ribs from Ukrops..
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Not sure if awesome would be my word to describe it, but it did attract some of the old board's better posters like K. Thor Jensen, Raven Mack (I always looked forward to Friday Love / Hate), and David Smith. I miss David Smith's rants on the evils of IGN. Jon Snowden and I fell out every now and again, but you can't ever say he didn't have a very informed opinion. AFAIK, he's still stationed at Ft. Rucker. His name is still in the US Army Global Address Book, so I assume he still works for DoD. I'm always tempted to send him a friendly e-mail, but I don't for fear that i'll get a "Hey, you're that self-righteous dickhead from DVDVR ain'cha?" reply.
ultimoDANK Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 It is kinda crazy how many super active posters have come and gone over the years.
Fat Spanish Waiter Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Sven had a billion posts and then disappeared
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Sven had a billion posts and then disappeared Sven's dad was killed when WTC Tower 2 went down during the 9/11 attack, man. He had to pull his family together and then he just buried himself in work once he made partner in a law firm in Toronto. I trade e-mails with him every now and then. He's doing fine. Sven is like my brother. I miss that dude.
Gonzo Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Did Chrispy ever make his way back here under another handle?
Craig H Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Not sure, but I think he's on my Facebook, so I at least know he's still alive. And Sven...I miss Sven. I wish he and his family didn't have to go through what they did.
Burgundy LaRue Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Chrispy a rare appearance just before the last board exploded. He doesn't come around anymore.
OSJ Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Who was the guy who rebeled against the board by creating his own? You mean Blackjack Parsons (a total dickhead) or do you mean that stupid Kaiju or whatever the hell it was called that Zhixel (a misguided young man as opposed to a total dickhead) created? I've always been surprised that Jersey Kid didn't create his own board, that could have been all kinds of fun to troll. Heads on a stake was a great, great time. Something that should perhaps be revived. Defending your existence was great too.
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I miss Jorsh Zhixel. He made me laugh Jorsh put himself between Scylla and Charybdis when the Kaiju folks left for parts unknown. He did not have the benefit of anonymity when DVDVR was the punchline of most Kaiju board jokes, because the 804 guys like me, Dean, SatanPro, & Hangman Tim Noel knew exactly who he was and what he was up to and I don't think any of us associated with him much after that.. You tend to burn your bridges after you cross 'em and not while you're standing on 'em, so I hope it was worth it to him.. I have not seen Shootstyle Zhixel in years. Hope he's doing okay.
Tromatagon Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Who was the dude with the Peter Lorre avatar I used to talk Troma movies with? That guy ruled.
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Manos99? We (Manos, Evil Ash, Hollinger, Televiper, IssacDuke, and myself) used to contribute to a cult movie blog called Movie Feast. Then we all got super busy in real life. I think that Manos99 is trying to become a serious cinema journalist now. He and Evil Ash posted the quality crafted reviews on the site. I just wrote off the cuff. Ash's stuff was insanely profound and scholarly. That dude was fucking gifted.
J.T. Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I am not sure what was more awesome: his acne, his cleft palate, or SHAKY-CAM~! Go and rent a fucking tripod. HE SINGLED OUT SPUNK~! I loved that guy..

Then we all got super busy in real life. I'd like to take this moment to say that I'm 97.28768914% sure that I was the only DVDVR member that visited Movie Feast regularly. I supported you!

I only wish he had contributed to the Centipede Press movie books. They are all excellent critical studies as they are, but Ash would have elevated them to another level.
OSJ Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I wonder if I still possess the Ban Hammer of the Gods? I suppose I'll have to wait for someone to provoke me... I relish the uncertainty that this causes, sort of like wondering whether or not Boyd Crowder is packing...
Greggulator Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Ah, the good old days of Kaiju. I actually got banned from that website. All of those dudes were making fun of pictures of people put up of themselves and let's just say none of them were exactly Jon Hamm. 1
