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 6)

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

      GLENN LOVELL, THE SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS:
      "Scott Baio, best known as Chachi from TV's 'Happy Days', is wonderful as Dominic, the bakery owner who's stretched dangerously thin with a corporate day job. Overall, THE BREAD, MY SWEET rises to the occasion and warms the heart while whetting the appetite. Moreover, it reminds us that Baio, who was terrific in 'Bugsy Malone' and 'Foxes' before being helplessly typecast by 'Happy Days', belongs on the big screen. In his scenes with Kristen Minter and especially Rosemary Prinz's immigrant mother, he exhibits a rugged charm that so far has eluded the likes of Tom Cruise and Ben Affleck."

      JONATHAN CURIEL, THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE:
      "Realistic dialogue and convincing performances, especially by Rosemary Prinz and Scott Baio, give THE BREAD, MY SWEET it's soul. The film is it's most powerful in tight quarters when for example Baio's Dominic asks Massimo for Lucca's hand. Baio looks away, nervous but almost expressionless, during the conversation which is stripped of any affectation or Hollywood dressing up."

      PHIL HALL, FILM THREAT:
      "The real surprise in THE BREAD, MY SWEET, of course, is Scott Baio. Forget (if you can) his sitcom past and enjoy a deep rich performance here. Baio perfectly captures the anguish and anxieties of a man being pulled in multiple directions and by different expectations. Whether living the role of a Fortune 500 executive or speaking with serene understanding among his problematic brothers, Baio invests the role with an emotional versatility that has never been seen in any of his previous performances. In small moments when his parallel worlds overlap, such as a boardroom meeting where he places a handful of macadamia nuts on a table and comments on their effectiveness in baking, Scott Baio comes alive with a subtle depth that clearly states what a truly fine actor he is."

        SCOTT BAIO IN RECENT YEARS: THE CHALLENGES AHEAD
        (An Update For 2003)

        2003 turned out to be a relatively active year for Scott Baio in his enduring showbiz career.

        After "Film Threat" chose THE BREAD, MY SWEET as one of the top ten best independent movies genuinely needing wider distribution, it was luckily picked up for national release and exhibited at various selected arthouse theaters around the country. He spent much time doing the necessary promotional appearances on behalf of said flick.

        October 2003 saw him getting interviewed by Lester Holt on NBC's Today morning program. In January of the following year, The Desert Sun newspaper of Palm Springs, California featured the latest article regarding him and this motion picture: "Known For TV Work, Scott Baio Wows Film Critics" by Kelly O'Connor.

        Previously, Mr. Baio also starred in a humorous television commercial with no less than Mel Gibson for the LASSO charity organization. He played an overspeeding driver of a flashy sportscar who's caught red-handed by Gibson's motorcycle policeman along the interstate highway. But rather than issuing a ticket, Mel spoke about LASSO and permitted Scott to go free with this gentle warning: "Drive safely, Chachi!"

        Moreover, he signed up for a cameo role in director Wes Craven's horror film CURSED. Early on-the-set reports described his scenes with Mandy Moore at a boisterous Halloween party. Negative gossip alleging his sudden removal from the movie later proved to be entirely untrue.

        Quashing such malicious rumors, The Los Angeles Daily News printed the following item on January 20, 2004: "Scott Baio Talks About Playing Himself In Cursed".

        He was quoted therein as saying: "It was a chance to work with some good people. But playing yourself is always fairly risky because you gotta watch how you goof on yourself. I told them (Craven and screenwriter Kevin Williamson): you guys can make fun of me all you want but please keep it to where its not completely insulting. They said: whatever you want to change, let us know. As it turned out, we didn't have to change a thing."

            SCOTT BAIO IN RECENT YEARS: THE CHALLENGES AHEAD
            (An Update for 2004)

            In the preceeding months of 2004, Scott Baio was interviewed further by other magazines to coincide with the DVD release of A WEDDING FOR BELLA (the new title of THE BREAD, MY SWEET).

            He gamely answered Stupid Questions for Entertainment Weekly in their February 6 Special Oscar Guide Double Issue. Scott wittily talked about the different versions of the Fonz's legendary jacket and poked fun at the erroneous tales of his premature demise in a 1997 car accident.

            Playgirl's March issue also enticed lady readers to get "In Bed With Scott Baio". The article's opening line states: "He played Chachi and Charles but now we find out how he plays Prince Charming."

            Mr. Baio's next public appearance occurred at the widely-televised California funeral of U.S. President Ronald Reagan. The New York Daily News published Michelle Caruso's article dated June 12 entitled: "A Goodbye As The Sun Sets In The West" which mentioned Scott as one of the famous guests in quiet attendance during the historical ceremonies. (He was seated near British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.) It read: "Scott Baio, who played Chachi on the hit sitcom Happy Days, said: President Reagan made me feel proud to be an American. Today, I feel sadness."

            August was an extremely busy period for Scott. He guested on different talk shows ("Regis and Kelly", "Fox and Friends", "The Early Show", "Jimmy Kimmell", etc.) in order to publicize his new movie with Jon Voight SUPERBABIES: BABY GENIUSES 2. The CBSNews.com website featured a Celeb Spot internet article on him dated August 23 entitled: "Scott Baio Does Day Care."

            On September 11 and 12, Scott Baio participated in the Happy Days 30th Anniversary Reunion TV Special. The first day saw the holding of the cast's annual softball game where lucky fans cheered their favorite stars. The second day was reserved for the actual taping of the special itself before a live studio audience. The network plans to broadcast it during "sweeps", maybe sometime early next year.

                  Here is a little something from The Hollywood Reporter dated December 27, 2004:

                  BAIO IN CHARGE OF N.B.C. SITCOM
                  by Nellie Andreeva

                  "Former teen heartthrob Scott Baio takes charge of another sitcom, playing a fortysomething smart guy who moves in with a twentysomething upstart and turns his life upside down. This yet untitled comedy project from HBO Independent Productions and Tagline Productions has already received a script commitment from NBC. Emmy winning writer-producer Jace Richdale (The Simpsons) is on board as executive-producer together with Blake McCormack who is penning the pilot episode."

                      As loyal fans patiently wait for more news about Scott Baio's latest film and television projects in 2005, let us happily revisit several informational articles and interviews concerning him after 2000 during the past few years.

                      Here's one from The Washington Post, dated Sunday, May 11, 2003:

                      BAKING WITH SCOTT BAIO by John Griffiths

                      If you had a chance to go to Scott Baio's house and have him bake you bread, you'd take it. You know you would. In a heartbeat.

                      Who could resist hanging out with the former star of '70s and '80s classics like "Happy Days", "Joanie Loves Chachi" and "Charles in Charge"? To the X generation, he was a Tigerbeat icon, practically every girl's dream and every guy's idol. And way cooler than Fonzie.

                      Turns out Baio, now 41, is still on a roll. And as a result of the 2001 indie flick "The Bread, My Sweet", he likes baking them, too.

                      In "Bread", which makes its Washington area debut Friday, Baio plays the owner of a biscotti shop who decides to marry a woman he barely knows (Kristen Minter of "ER") to give her dying mother her last wish.

                      Before filming, he got cookie-making training at Pittsburgh's popular Enrico Biscotti Co., where the film is set. But what stuck afterward was a habit of bread-baking.

                      "I'm a manual guy, so I got into it," he said of his hobby. "The key is letting it rise. I didn't even know what that meant before I made the movie."

                      Baio's bread is a simple, rustic loaf that he and fiancee Jeanette Jonsson, a grad student, knead and shape in the granite and stainless-steel kitchen of their Encino, Calif., home.

                      "I like your basic bread," he says. "[Not] your olive or carrot stuff. I could eat my bread and butter with every meal."

                      Startled critics, meanwhile, are also finding they like "Bread" more than they thought they would. ("It sneaks up on you," said the Houston Chronicle. "Surprisingly affecting," said Variety.)

                      Fonzie would be proud.
