[MOPO] Re Does MOPO Need Fixing?

[Flixspix]

Scott, The site is completely satisfying from where I sit.  I think the occasional tangents  are on the whole welcome and in general stay pretty well in check or members do indeed call FLAG ON THE PLAY and discussion halts rather abruptly.  JR isn't the only one,  there are others, myself included who prefer to caution directly to the posting member.     Scott,  I feel  most people who have remained on Mopo  as this subject has been covered many times before think open questions regarding political, religious and lifestyle topics are inappropriate.. But using Brokeback as an example  most observations in the past days and weeks  were okay  until the recent open ended  and obvious answer of the Chad Allen casting in a Christian film causing fringe religious group objections.    THE BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN dialogue and observations simply mirrored the phenomenon many print and broadcast outlets are evaluating, with discussion of demographics, marketing  and the like..........and because of it, you can  bet there were at least a dozen dealers who proceeded to stock up on the film's poster because of the participation and thoughtful observations by so many on MOPO, realizing it would not be a stretch to say its a subject among the poster cognoscenti  outside as  well. And that means poster sales.   I recently submitted the Joan Crawford video mega-mix link.  Its a tangent that I felt a majority would get a kick out of.  I would therefore hate to see MOPO so straight jacketed as to have such amusements leached out completely.    Scott carry on and thank you very much to boot.  I have had probably more luck and success than anyone selling posters directly on MOPO.  At last count it was over 20 grand in 3 years..yet only 14 posters total.  So again thank you.       freeman fisher 8601 west knoll drive #7 west hollywood, ca 90069 Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
