Mr. X ---> "Be excellent to each other. And party on, dudes!"

Nobody wants to see piles of corpses at the movies. Well, 99.9% of people 99.9% of the time, anyway.

They worked really well in Enemy at the Gates though. Look, how about instead of apocalypse movies you watch World War II movies. Those can be just as apocalyptic.

smiley - evilgrinThe casting group supplying the zombies probably wouldn't mind more casting calls supplying grisly looking corpses laying around in various states of dismemberment and half devoured as a consequence of cannibalistic acts of consumption.... We'll have to see if they pick up on the idea. ...and of course, the 'plague' is supposed to be spreading as a chain reaction, the very bite of the zombie making yet another zombie.

My other petty hate is fibromyalgia which means I cannot regulate my inner body temperature because of this humidity effects me greatly.

Sho - employed again!

I'm whining about the weather too. It's too hot and it suddenly jumped from 18°C to 34°C with nothing in between. It's still 25°C at night and I can't function because everything that I need to do is impacted by me being too hot.
And I will whine about it until it gets cold again.
And no, I'm not sorry.

Weather woes, the past few days temperature has been hovering around 110F/43C, with a ...warm... monsoonal breeze coming up from the the tropics, off central America, carrying a lot of humidity and producing nil chill factor, wet ball consistently 5 in daylight hours well after the dawn.

Cumulous clouds are beginning to condense out of the monsoonal haze between 5000 and 6000 feet (1524 to 1828 meters) in the western Coachella Valley, piling up against the Santa Rosa Mts., Mt. San Gorgonio and Joshua Tree National Park.

Out here in the Salton Sea area, where I am, there's a (quiet) electrophoris storm under way, with a uniform spathe of blow sands rising to about 1300 feet (394 meters), remembering that the Salton Sea is 229 feet (70 meters) below sea level in the first place.

There may be a tempestuous blow building up, may be tornadoes, probably won't be any rain except a light pre-dawn drizzle in the mountains.

Getting back to corpses, I often wondered why only skulls survived the nuclear apocalypse in the Terminator films, and not any other type of bone.

The very first instance of nudity I saw was that of a corpse in the SciFi doomsday classic, _The Andromeda Strain_. Plenty of bodies, but not piles of them.

The very first nudity I saw on screen was when I was 12 and sneaked into the Roxy to see the X-Cert "Adult Fairy Tales". I couldn't enjoy it for the massive feelings of guilt I had

The first nude scenes I can recall seeing in the movies were underwater swim sequences from the Johhny Weismuller/Maureen O'Sullivan Tarzan movies.

PH: Google links that don't post correctly to or from clipboard on a "What you see is what you get." basis.

Instead of 'wysiwyg' its often 'abt' - "Anything but that!".

Time wasting, 'pita', histrionic software and/or software designer.

I suspect the first topless women I saw in a film was probably in 'Zulu', which may well have had a bit of a 'tribal nudity doesn’t count, but obviously topless white women is unacceptable' attitude.smiley - erm

I'll just note, the "first nudity I've seen" was a side note to "where are the bodies" in scifi doomsday films.

Both conversations are quite interesting. smiley - cheers
