Wow, thanks matt. I thank you for all the posts and quizzes, thank everybody here for their sterling contributions, it's a fun place to come and learn. Still hoping more people might start threads but I'm confident we're all building something that's made to last.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.

You conduct master classes in movies of the classic era.

I have a lot of enthusiasm but I'm amazed at the knowledge of some people here, it's just staggering. If you could put all our knowledge together you could create a classics film supercomputer.

Yep, Spider too -- make that trio a quartet! I'd say a quintet, Matt, as you belong to these posters, too.

I just want to say that I really love all of you. Honestly, if I had to pick a group of people to be stuck with for the rest of my life, sight unseen, I would pick all of you.
No matter what film I would want to talk about, at least one of you would come to my rescue. If I wanted to discuss the gags that showed up in BRINGING UP BABY, MAN'S FAVORITE SPORT? and WHAT'S UP DOC?, someone would be able to come up with the homages. List the McGuffins or the best Hitchcockian films not directed by Hitch.
I just want to thank all of you for letting me share the sandbox.

Everyone in this thread is golden! After ye olde IMDB boards sank, I couldn't be happier that I ended up on the same lifeboat as y'all! *group hugs*

Thanks, matt. And you are without a doubt a big part of the pot of gold at the end of this cinematic rainbow. I'm sorry I've not been able to participate as much as I used to, but I do when I can. And a big thanks indeed to those you mentioned and to everyone else for keeping the board alive through their thoughtful participation. What a treasure it is.

And you are welcomed whenever you can participate, Spider -- little or large, it's always good to have you on board. And how do you know I have a pot? (oh, you mean 'of gold')

Thanking Petro and Tele and Bat for all their Herculean efforts to enrich this board with their classic film posts. Perfect call Matt; those are the posters I would mention too. Bat's image threads are almost always fun and interesting..I especially liked the one about Those Hats and chapeaux.Every time I see a movie with one of those old hats and chapeaux, I think of that thread. For example, I just saw a movie with Rosalind Russell in which I think the hat should have received an Oscar for best supporting object: Your Garth Games are so good that they can be addictive...I can sometimes still feel an Adrenaline rush while playing them. I don't drink, smoke, or gamble, but I now know what drives a person to want to go on and on--then come back and go on and on again. I never expect to win, but I almost always enjoy the ah ha moment when I find a match before Linda does...Yes it is usually--but not not always--Linda who gets the same connection before I do.

I just wanted to thank you all for making this (what I think is) the nicest/most civil board on IMDB 2.
