  1. Glad to know you enjoyed it, Iaredios. Finally finished James Ellroy's magnificent Underworld U.S.A. trilogy with Blood's A Rover. It's a grand book and very powerful, but not as great as American Tabloid. The main-arc ending felt like a bit of a letdown but the Epilogue was brilliant. I'd rate it higher than The Cold Six Thousand, enjoyment and style-wise but I liked C6K's character-consistency better. Also finished re-reading Pete Dexter's Deadwood. A very twisted, well-written and brilliant Western.
  2. Ah, the Gonzo madness of Dr. Hunter Stockton Thompson. I've been reading some Don Winslow and am currently on Edward Bunker's No Beast So Fierce. A bona fides crime novel classic, written by a real criminal who really went through the mangler of the System. EDIT: Finished No Beast so Fierce.
  3. "Did you hear that? 'Cause I did". "What?" "The night is dark, and full of Toa".
  4. RIP Curtis Hanson. One of those few blokes who were able to make a great movie out of a great book.

  5. A little late, but a happy birthday to you, Shadow! Good poem Ghiddy, you're making Wordsworth proud.
  6. One day I would like to write a western.

      Now that, Giddy Ghiddy, is a grand idea.

      Pardner, I'm the darg-gawndest giddiest Ghiddy the cactus juice could ever spit.

  7. [Two BZPower citizens have come upon a fish symbol beneath Banned Member's profile] Citizen #1: What does that mean? Citizen #2: It's a Ghidoran message. It means he now sleeps with the Danish Fishes.
  8. Farewell My Lovely (1975). A proper neon-jungle Chandler adaptation. Not perfect, but definitely a great adaptation featuring a terrific performance from Robert Mitchum an intensely evocative '30s L.A.
  9. I feel honoured to be quoted on the Ghidfather's profile page. Have I now achieved the first step towards Ghidora-ism?

      It takes may steps, and many Jolly Ranchers

  10. Finished American Pastoral. ​​EDIT: Also finished A Scanner Darkly and Das Boot.
  11. Just chillin', guardin' the doors of Mangaia ._. I don't know why you decided to write this but I love it. Strange things happen when you watch a bunch of clips from The Godfather and then log onto BZPower.
  12. I don't know what to do, Ghidfather. My art is weak, it's weak. Anyway, if I had this lead writer part for this comedy, it puts me right back on top, you know. But this... this user out there. He won't give it to me, the head of the forum. A month ago he started assembling a team of writers, really good ones. The main character is a guy just like me. I wouldn't even have to think, just write myself. Oh, Ghidfather, I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do...
  13. Something you wouldn't want to see looking through your windows at night.
  14. Dude... it's a little dark in hear. Better not forget to breathe...
  15. This MOC is phenomenal. The bio is just as good. He is a rather dapper fellow, our Mr. M. Dark Prince of Thrills and Frights! Haunting shadow in the night! 5 out of 5 from Rotating Pohatu magazine.
  16. I wouldn't want to pick a fight with this fellow if I met him. I haven't seen so large a Bionicle MOC for years. Great job!
