Hi, this is my first post...Hope I am doing this right. I have been read the posts on the inaccuracies and how gullible the general public is about believing every thing they see in movies. I am really new to costume spotting but because of my DH the entire family is known to yell at the screen in any movie historical or modern "PICK UP THE AMMO/WEAPON", as the good guy runs around ect...so now it will be punctuated with, "WHAT ARE THEY THINKING THAT ISN'T EVEN THE RIGHT..." I will probably not be able to get any of our friends to watch movies with us at all from now on. (Well except for those who share our frustrations)

When I was watching Titanic in the theater, the lady in front of me very loudly - and with VERY genuine shock - said "Oh my god! The boat is sinking!!!" I mean really, that's not exactly news or a little known fact hard to distinguish from the real story! > > Wendi > > _______________________________________________ > h-costume mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume > _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
