Lads

ah lads

not on deadlone day, lads

lads

the enry iggins from the 1936 (i think) pygmalion vs enry from the celebrated my fair lady?

please show your workings

for that matter, id swap lizas as well.

possibly even rex would want to uo his game.

the pain in sna falls mainly on etc

I cannot stand Audrey Hepburn so it's a no brainer.

same, think shes a dose

but a very lovely one tbf

imago this is a lads thread about what its about tyvm

the halitosis is burning up the screen with the '37 enry i highly recommend grabbing even only 'is scenes

the songs add plenty to the technicolor one but im not sure that they also dont take from it

and while rex is plenty mean, i dont think he nails the callousness of howard.

I ought to know My Fair Lady better ‘n I do but I’m only 1/12th or so of a Broadway nerd

cant choose between the old fella, captain or major or whatever. both wonderful.

hi silby

pygmalion discussed is rly more a standard morality play
tho obv one can't escape the musical's influence

darragh what is your opinion of the contemporary musical theater style of being almost completely “sung through”, with the book limited to interstitial material or a few moments of high drama; followup question, why was RENT so popular

I don't think I've ever seen the 1937 (or 1936, make your mind up) version! However Leslie Howard was a class act, so I can certainly imagine him bettering Rex Harrison, a negligible actor at the best of times, his sprechstimme thing is completely overrated.

xp i dont like it i dont like it at all

rex wasnt an actor and his prof wasnt to be treated as an acting performance so much as a feat of presence and great expressions

idk why was rent so popular but it often strikes me that not very much of anything is any good which explains my general demeanor of dissatisfaction interspersed with a v sincere delight when i find anything worth finding

havent seen rent btw obv

tombot whats uno

is it anything like 25 i have i think related the rules of 25 here previously

Uno is a trademarked iterations of Crazy Eights

i asked tombot because i believe he would know to explain it in a way that didnt make me have more questions, a fence that unfortunately youve broken a leg on there

a popular nerd variant of uno is 'mao' anyone here played that

look i believe you know full well the spirit in which i asked for clarification

Sorry I was posting briefly while eating a grilled cheese sandwich (which I believe the English call a “cheese toastie”)

Crazy Eights is a card game from the “shedding” family, where a player plays a card to the top of a central pile on their turn that matches the card below by suit or rank. Eights are wild, hence “Crazy Eights”. If unable to play a card, one draws cards until a playable one is drawn. The first player to play their last card wins.

Uno is the same game, but with some extra nonsense like cards that reverse the turn order, force the next player to draw cards, and the requirement that one say “Uno!” when one holds only one more card.

imago I played Mao a fair bit in high school. (Mao is Crazy Eights, but with extra rules, and the rules may not be disclosed to new players but must be inferred from play, and the winner of a round gets to add a rule, which the other players must infer through play. It is a game for the scrupulous-yet-vindictive.)

ok

from that helpful description i can essay that 25 is like that crossed with rummy crossed with poker and is a deathly serious fuckin game in the parishes of rural ireland

silby did you have the point of order rule, that was a doozy

Yeah Uno is played by children and tolerant adults. Mao is played by teenagers in gifted and talented programs.

I fuckin loved points of order.

fuck that is the exact situation i have played mao in

I’m probably only not a lawyer (darragh: solicitor?) because I learned to program computers, is the takeaway here

The other shedding game popular in my high school was Capitalism (aka President, Asshole) which is more interesting than Uno/Crazy Eights but probably more random and less interesting than any rummy variant.

i see you translating perfectly comprehensible terms you tart

tho the concept of hypercontextualising every such term when broadcasting yank movies/tv over here is a good one, ripe with possibilities

Listen (Hearken), offering excessive clarification to the point of appearing condescending is like. My whole deal.

well i have a w1fe already fy1
