Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      SCOTT BAIO'S INDEPENDENT FILM ADVENTURES ( Part 1 )

      Now when I previously left our hero in a cliffhanger of sorts, Mr. Scott Baio was at an important crossroad after the "Rewind" fiasco. Mainstream Hollywood controlled by virulent anti-Republican powerbrokers spitefully excluded him from numerous acting jobs. His malicious enemies would love nothing better than to see him ultimately discarded as a forgotten teen idol has-been jettisoned among the pitiful ranks of grotesque ex-child stars. Awaiting him would be a pathetic celebrity life quagmire full of materialistic excesses, artistic burnout, addiction rehab counseling, tabloid notoriety, humiliating guest appearances in junk reality shows and a tragic desperation to win back vanished fame.
      ( There had been early plans for him and Corey Feldman to work together in a proposed reality-based series. But that project luckily never materialized. Corey went on to do "The Surreal Life". Scott did not. What a near close call and virtual blessing in disguise for him! )

      Instead, Scott Baio made a very fateful decision about his thwarted showbiz career. Rather than listlessly waiting for the industry's vultures to finish picking through the debris of his eclipsed stardom, this guy bravely abandoned the comfortable milieu of Tinseltown and riskily ventured into the unfamiliar landscape of Independent Cinema. It was quite a daring move, certainly not in keeping with Hollywood's plot to render him an obsolete fixture of the entertainment community.

      His recent movies included "Detonator" (with Charlene Tilton and Don Stroud), "Bar-Hopping" (with Tom Arnold and John Henson), "Dumb Luck" (with Hal Linden and Tracy Nelson) and "Face Value" (with James Wilder and Michael Dorn). "Danielle Steel's Mixed Blessings" (with James Naughton and Gabrielle Carteris) was an earlier made-for-tv film shown during the middle 1990s.

      But three of his other recent motion pictures have become worthy of closer inspection and discussion: "Very Mean Men", "Face To Face" and of course, "The Bread, My Sweet".

          SCOTT BAIO'S INDEPENDENT FILM ADVENTURES (Part 2)

          The start of the new millenium proved to be a highly auspicious development for Scott Baio. Together with his older brother Steven, he co-produced VERY MEAN MEN, a gangster comedy involving a mob war between two syndicate families. The ensemble cast was headed by Matthew Modine, Martin Landau, Ben Gazzara, Burt Young and Louise Fletcher. Scott himself enacted the pivotal role of impetuous crime scion Paulie Minnetti who unwittingly instigates the crime feud by refusing to tip a waitress. His astonishing performance garnered this laudatory quote from Variety: "a career-reviving turn by Scott Baio with hair dyed blonde and sporting a white goatee." (His new look was in evidence during a two-part guest appearance as Josh's wedding planner on "Veronica's Closet".) This movie also collected a best editing prize in the Seattle International Film Festival.

          Next arrived FACE TO FACE, a bittersweet comic drama wherein three young men (Scott Baio, Thomas Calabro and Carlo Imperato) have to kidnap their emotionally distant fathers (Dean Stockwell, Alex Rocco and Joe Viterelli) for a weekend of genuine male bonding. The original screenplay had been written by Scott and Jeffrey Gurian, from a story authored by him, co-star Imperato and Adam Ferrara. (When asked by reporters during a press conference if any of the movie's elder characters were based on his own dad Mario, Scott deadpanningly responded, "No. He was a lot meaner.") This personal movie was selected by Film Threat (filmthreat.com/gorey details) as one of the top ten independent pictures lacking a distribution deal. Nevertheless, it still won the best comedy feature trophy at the Marco Island International Film Festival.

                SCOTT BAIO'S INDEPENDENT FILM ADVENTURES (Part 3)

                The most valuable jewel within Scott Baio's crown of recent achievements has to be THE BREAD, MY SWEET (given the new title A WEDDING FOR BELLA when it came out in VHS and DVD home videos last February early this year).

                Directed by Melissa Martin and produced by Adrienne Wehr, this gentle romance starred Mr. Baio as Dominic Pyzola who's both a hard-edged corporate raider in the daytime and a kind-hearted local pastries chef at night. He almost lost this important role because some mean-spirited talent representative of a well-known indy film starlet endeavored to pressure the moviemakers into dumping him. They refused to abandon Scott as their leading man and politely told said agent to go screw himself.

                This little cinematic gem received multiple top accolades from the Santa Monica, Stony Brook, Marco Island, Houston Worldfest and Iowa Hardacre film festivals. It generated excellent notices in various American cities. Critical opinion has been mainly favorable, unanimously praising Mr. Baio in the lead role. Once again, the Film Threat website chose the movie as one of the ten best motion pictures unseen by the general public.

                Most important of all, Scott Baio victoriously earned THREE Best Actor Prizes for THE BREAD, MY SWEET in the Atlantic City International Film Festival, the Kansas City Halfway To Hollywood Film Festival and the San Diego International Film Festival.

                  SCOTT BAIO'S INDEPENDENT FILM ADVENTURES (Part 4)

                  Here are a sample of Scott Baio's glowing reviews for THE BREAD, MY SWEET (a.k.a. A WEDDING FOR BELLA):

                  THE POPKORN JUNKIES:
                  "Scott Baio is fantastic in one of his first major film roles."

                  MICHAEL O'SULLIVAN, THE WASHINGTON POST:
                  "Baio's At His Best In Bread......Scott Baio simply shines as Dominic."

                  ERIC MENDER, FILM JOURNAL:
                  "Scott Baio gives a surprisingly deep and convincing performance."

                  JIM LANE, THE SACRAMENTO NEWS AND REVIEWS:
                  "Scott Baio still looks younger than his 42 years but he's definitely outgrown Chachi and has a warm and mature screen presence."

                  JOHN NICCUM, LAWRENCE.COM:
                  "Former sitcom veteran Scott Baio is terrific in this role. He shifts effortlessly between manipulative and sincere, especially when pitching his idea for marraige to the girl Lucca."

                  BOB LONGINO, THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION:
                  "Scott Baio, who plays a part-time baker and full-time corporate big wig, is quite good. He exudes a naturalism, a compelling conviction that gives depth and meaning to the lines he delivers."

                    Jasper, do you exist for any other purpose than to randomly appear on the internet when someone makes a Scott Baio thread and update people on Scott Baio's current endeavors?

                      SCOTT BAIO'S INDEPENDENT FILM ADVENTURES (Part 5)

                      Here are more glowing reviews for Scott Baio's lead performance in THE BREAD, MY SWEET (a.k.a. A WEDDING FOR BELLA):

                      ROBERT HORTON, AMAZON.COM EDITORIAL REVIEW:
                      "And in an image-changing turn, former kid star Scott Baio delivers a terrific assured performance. Its the biggest surprise in a sweet movie."

                      WES BENNETT, DR. MOVIE MOVIE:
                      "I cannot stress enough what a great performance Scott Baio gives. He was perfect for the role and no big name actor could have done it any better. His charisma is vital to making Lucca and Dominic's relationship develop in a realistic and moving way."

                      MARGARET A. MCGURK, THE CINCINATTI INQUIRER:
                      "The story centers on Dominic, played with a nice blend of confidence and vulnerability by Scott Baio, a young executive who is making a bundle in the mergers and acquisitions business."

                      FRANK SCHECK, PANORAMA ENTERTAINMENT
                      and THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER:
                      "Scott Baio, whose role as television's Chachi has forever doomed him to trivia-game-answer status, delivers a highly effective and restrained performance as Dominic Pyzola, a young Italian-American who divides his working time between serving as a ruthless acquisitions executive for a big corporation and baking biscotti in the family bakery that he also manages."

                      JAMES VERNIERE, THE BOSTON HERALD:
                      "Scott Baio, still best known for his fresh-faced adolescent stint on 'Happy Days', gives an impressively soulful, genuinely romantic and, for lack of a better word, masculine performance - one that should persuade the industry to take another look at him."
