Has anyone else downloaded that 300 screener with Spanish audio?

Seriously, fuck that shit.

I am so very late with that one, aren't I?


There never was an image here, what the fuck are you talking about?

That looks vaguely familiar.

I did have HBO in the 80s, but I don't remember being allowed to watch very much HBO programming, aside from Fraggle Rock.

I also saw a little bit of Kids in the Hall, but that wasn't something I was allowed to regularly watch.

In the 80s, I had probably between 7 and 10 channels (no joke) because cable didn't exist in my shit town, and my parents were WAY too cheap for satellite dish!!! But, because I had <channel I can't remember> I was able to watch the X-Files every Sunday night... I guess I can be grateful for that!

We had cable in the late 80's, and I somewhat remember that intro. I think there was another HBO intro they did as well.

Wow.. that's awesome. Seeing it immediately brought back memories. In fact, there's probably a VHS tape or two around here that still has that before the movie.
