The double gag scene for two damsels in one episode will air Thursday night at midnight on SoapNet.
The first damsel was tied to a chair and OTM gagged with a cranberry scarf at the end of tonight's episode. I'm not sure who she is, but it might be one of the scene database entries listed simply as "bound and gagged." In the same episode, female detective (I think this one is Joanna Going) was grabbed at gunpoint in her car and hand-gagged with a black glove. When tomorrow's episode starts, the female will still be tied to a chair and gagged in the room before she frees herself. Furious struggling. Also, Joanna is shown tied up and gagged with white tape in a phone booth. Unfortunately, she's wearing a thick overcoat that gets in the way and she frees herself instantly and we get no good shots of her gagged. Some good mmmppping though and she makes a phone call while tied up. I actually remember recording these scenes back in college in 1988. Can't believe that was 16 years ago. And I also remember being royally pissed off at the poor scene for the brunette in the phone booth. |

OK so I got the gag type wrong. My point was kaye spends the latter part of the movie looking for his lost 'girlfriend' who has been snatched by the bad guys.
She is first presented as an illusion seated in a chair bound and (cleve) gagged. I'm not disputing this was a classic scene. But when kaye eventualy finds her I would have expeced her to be in some kind of restraints. Sleeping just didn't ring true. Virginia Mayo created a wonderful vision for just those few seconds. Its just a shame we couldn't have seen more further on. alan a |

C'mon, if film history tells us anything, it tells us that directors would dare do any fucking thing they like to a script. I will grant you that the scene of Faye Wray at the altar is THE second signature scene for the Kong movie (the first being the Empire State Building scene) but I wouldn't put it past Jackson to dump it. I wouldn't put it past any director to say, "Let's make Kong a giant chicken!" |

Pat, I love you like a brother, but if there was *ever* a director who deserved more than automatic cynicism, it's Peter Jackson. He did everything but channel Tolkein's ghost to make the *LotR* faithful to the books. Also, everything I've read says he's been *fighting* to do a Kong remake for YEARS. I have nothing but good feelings about Jackson's Kong. |

That problem occurred even after joining the group. However, I am pleased to note that today I had no problem at all accessing the file. Might have simply been some server weirdness. The Ali & Jack scene was shorter than I expected, but that's quibbling: A very nice, decidedly atypical scene, with Ali putting on a loose but very cute cleave. The tape gag was pretty lame, but again, it's hard to argue when she follows up a cute between-the-teeth cleave with a subsequent tape gag. Big props. |

...or as I like to think of it since I'm not German, "Die! Die! My Babydealer!" ;)
Maybe not a classic, for want of a gag, but not a bad little scene with respect to the struggling aspect. Anyway, I'm home with a cold and nothing better to do than to catch up on my capping, so I may have one more set coming up a bit later if the NyQuil doesn't zap me into oblivion first... |

Count 'em, 40 caps (plus clips) from this very dynamic, somewhat violent sequence. Fortunately, both of our damsels do survive, though with somewhat less flattering hairstyles...

And, by some kind of freakish double coincidence, Netflix just delivered what turns out to be another example, which also came up just today in another thread: Beverly Hills Ninja. You're definitely going to want to go with the full-frame version on this one, folks!

It just so happens that I got lucky with the three titles you mention above that I've already clipped, in that I ran across the fullscreen versions before the widescreen DVDs became available. Now that DVD has become ubiquitous, though, I'm definitely making a conscious effort to do just what you say. |

The widescreen retains the ENTIRE frame of picture information. The full-screen version CROPS INTO each frame, encompassing an area which the filmmakers/editors choose, and then print that enlarged, slightly less clear version. The ONLY way that a full-screen version could have more picture information than widescreen is if the widescreen version was not remastered from the original 35mm or 16mm film. So I really want to know more. Are the pictures you show in your entry real? Or did you crop in yourself? Thanks...regards to all... |

And Raffish, I mean no offense when I mention this, nor am I trying to intimate that you don't know any of these bits of information about film. I'm just shocked and confused and my brain would like some more proof.
So again, I hope I didn't offend... |

Because so much conversation occurs about how writers screw up- well they still seem to be pretty much at the mercy of what the director feels like doing.. "script?? I don't need no stinking script!~" I have the original script for this Hulk episode, and the writer specifically mentions the bad guy pulling out a cloth and tying it between her lips. But somewhere between his pen and the screen, it became a tape gag. Still, a very good scene. Sheilah Larkin by the way. |

Thursday January 29 22:06:23 2004 Favorite Directors for Full-treatment scenes? |
> Because so much conversation occurs about how writers screw up - well they still seem to be pretty much at the mercy of what the director feels like doing...
"script?? I don't need no stinking script!~" ---- Several months ago, I noted that one of my favorite actors of the late-1970s thru 1980s was Richard Lynch, because whatever movie or TV guest star appearance he made *seemed* to involve a very attractive DiD. I wonder if Brian's Pagers have any favorite directors for doing a righteous job on their actresses, given the appropriate opportunities? Perhaps Horror-genre directors, such as Dario Argento, might be in the lead here. |

In the hopes this doesn't get ruled off topic, I'll try to explain. There are a number of widescreen film processes. Most of them are as you say, where only the intended widescreen image is filmed, then a full screen version is later made for TV/video that cuts off picture information. Having said that, there are also a couple of processes where a film is composed for widescreen, but more picture information is shot to use for TV & video. The advantage is that no important picture information will be left out of the full screen version, the disadvantage being that the composition is an afterthought. The process is usually called a 'soft matte' thought the Super 35 technique similarly shoots for both versions then crops the filmed image according to whether it's for theaters or TV. In the case of 'Wild Wild Planet', the film was originally shot in standard aspect ratio as a European TV movie before a decision was made to release it theatrically. The US theatrical prints were matted to make it look like a widescreen film. Even though the unmatted version played on US TV, a subsequent lasrdisc release and TCM showings matted it to reflect the original US theatrical version. I could go into much more detail on these processes, but fear I've already risked getting off topic as it is. |

And yes, those caps are straight off the DVD (with, of course, the matting bars removed from the widescreen cap). I think iD has just explained it nicely, but in case you're still confused, the link below goes into a bit more detail and includes some nice visual examples. Specifically, take a look at page 2 of the article, under "Other Options." |

I missed this week's episode of "24"...did anything noteworthy (DiD-wise) happen? I'd heard it was a possibility but since nothing has been mentioned about it I take it it's a bust? |
