Pretty much. The ol' Bant is pretty much a ghost town, where the inscrutable sage known as K-Addict lives in solitude, performing ritual dances to the songs of his people.

What if we just replaced oxygen with swag?

Movies.

The word is film.

Movies sounds very childish.

I don't like it.

FILMS.

We used to say pictures.
Did ye see that new Clint Eastwood picture?
Are ye going to the pictures on Saturday?
What's on at the picture house?  :laughing:
(Usually pronounced pitcher)
And we had a phrase for the episodic short before the film: a following-upper, pronounced folly-in-upper.
Got to love us!

Yeah pictures or cinema if not film.

Movie is out of the question!

Film is a gross word with gross associations. Movie is a better word.

Film makes it sound like you are coughing up phlegm.

It's too proper and has disgusting mouth feel.

Movies flow much better.

I was this cool the whole time.

I think we should all move with the times and call them talkies.  :laughing:

Personally I like "flicks", no untoward associations with that one.

Not unless you write it like this: FLICKS  :laughing:

Flicks is also acceptable.

This is why I hate liking movies.  The snobbish community is way more insufferable than music somehow lmao

U say vinyls as a joke in the music world, people laugh.  You call something a movie?  No longer will other "film buffs" take you seriously.

"I own the mail" or whatever Elph said

u shud dig a hole for your lost dreams and fill it in with PFA water

Except I'm not even a film buff. Rarely watch them and openly admit I know next to nothing about them.

I've got about three posts about films in the entire time I've been on here.

It was only when I moved to the US that I realized many Dubliners pronounce it Fil-uhms.
