Dude, wrong forum.

Karl Hungus · 17-08-2005 10:40AM

Could someone please explain to me, just how anyone could possibly think that this kind of thread should be posted in Film Reviews. Did the Reviews part not give away what the board is for?

Am I going to have to start handing out temp bans untill people get a clue?

I know its not a movie, but Band of Brothers really deserves to be in my list now that I think of it - finished watching all 10 episdoes lately, 3 a night. Fantastic stuff. Didn't want it to end.....
