I think we should watch "Clue" That is what started this whole process was us quoting the moving. I think it should be the first official movie.

I wanted to too but I fear the fall out of so many people wanting to do the Madeline Khan...

Will the audio of several computers playing the videos at the same time interfere with the transmission of audio on Vent?

I Didn't think of this, as I was planning on watching on my Apple TV/PS3 but I think head sets would eliminate the issue.

I might only make it for the 2nd half. I don't get off of work until 3pm PST (6pm EST) I'm really looking forward to this =^.^=

It's ok "Pale Moonlight" is the superior episode anyway :-D

I would also be up for this. It sounds like fun.

i might be up for this also though no netflix so ill just watch them on my computer :P

In.

I like my popcorn salted, no butter. And a Coke Zero.

So tonight on Vent we were talking about Movies so the bunch of us in Ten Forward decided to start the Stonewall Movie Club. It's pretty Simple we'll get Together on Vent at the same time and power up Netflix and watch the movie simultaneously.

So first movie night is going to be Sunday 6PM Eastern and while it's not a Movie it'll be about the length of a Movie. We will be watching TWO DS9 Episode Episode 6x18 and Episode 6x19. Inquisition and In The Pale Moonlight.

Moving forward we'll suggest movies and vote on it. Alrighty then...Who's in?

I have no idea why I was browsing their webstore t'other day, but I was.

Their stuff looks quality.

I might not have an interest in the disruptors, but any home or office would be enhanced by their TOS Captain's Chair replica.

Got mine in.

Thanks everyone for voting on the poll and replying. Just so you know, we're know accepting Uniform submissions!

Thanks for sharing. It was a stunning video indeed. :)

Alright, time for a long poem, I have already translated it from the source and confirmed as much of the translation as I could. The fun part of doing this is the discovery.

Author: Marbod, Bishop of Rennes (d. 1123)

Horace composed an ode about a certain boy
Whose face was so lovely he could have easily been a girl,
Whose hair fell in waves against his ivory neck,
Whose forehead was as white as snow and his eyes as black as pitch,
Whose soft cheeks were full of delicious sweetness
When they bloomed in the brightness of a blush of beauty.
His nose was perfect, his lips flame red, lovely his teeth---
An exterior formed in measure to match his mind.

This vision of a face, radiant and full of beauty,
Kindled with the torch of love the heart of whoever beheld him.
But this boy, so lovely and appealing,
A torment to all who looked upon him,
Was made by nature so cruel and unyielding
Than he would die rather than yield to love.
Harsh and ungrateful, as if born of a tiger,
He only laughed at the soft words of admirers,
Laughed at their vain efforts,
Laughed at the tears of a sighing lover.
He laughed at those whom he himself was causing to perish.
Surely he is wicked, cruel and wicked,
Who by the viciousness of his character denies the beauty of his body.
A fair face should have a wholesome mind,
Patient and not proud but yielding in this or that.
The little flower of age is swift, of surpassing brevity;
Soon it wastes away, vanishes, and cannot be revived.
This flesh so fair, so milky, so flawless,
So healthy, so lovely, so glowing, so soft---
The time will come when it is ugly and rough,
When this youthful skin will become repulsive.
So while you bloom, adopt a more becoming demeanor.

Square this sort of poetry from a Bishop with a modern Church that condemns love for any reason other than the rough purpose of procreation...only. The rest is grave sin.
