Tried to login, but the system got hungup on flash player settings- it refused to believe I don't have a webcam or mic.

On top of that, the sound was way overamped, and whoever was "ST. Louis" typing on his keyboard sounded like a thunderstorm played triple time.

On top of that, I misunderstood it was one of those video chats like Jen ran a few years ago that broadcast the movie as well. Since I don't have the movie..

One top of that, I didn't have the buttons on the bottom for typing chat either.

So, faced with the prospect of listening to a couple people watch a movie I'm not watching, sound echoing and feeding back, while I can't participate in any way, I bailed.

Sorry for the trouble and that I'm not as sophisticated as Jen. ::sad::

I don't understand the issue with the chat; maybe I could find a different site for the next viewing!

ha

this is what the help says:

You may have a firewall that's blocking your connection to the meeting.

Please check your firewall settings and unsure that your UDP ports are not blocked.
Meetings.io runs on a pure P2P (peer to peer) architecture meaning you connect directly to your meeting peers from your computer to theirs. For direct P2P connections to work you need to enable UDP such that a connection can be made directly with your peers.

it may as well be in French

Well Young Frankenstein was a LOT of fun - At my place I was joined by the hubby and another couple and online we were joined by metternich1815...

A few notes before I crash...

WOW I had forgotten how incredibly brilliantly funny Marty Feldman & Gene Wilder are, everything from broad physical humor to the one-liners. The movie is so incredibly tight - Even with how Wilder, Feldman, and Gar crowd together in mock gravity scene over scene...
I could watch this on must and still guffaw with the mugs that Feldman makes!
I never really 'got' the humor to the Inspector, but metternich1815 explained that that's more of a nod to Son of Frankenstein, which I've never seen. I don't find him very funny, to be honest, but would probably appreciate it more if I had seen the original mold.
Madeline Kahn and Gar are also brilliant. Every word and line delivered perfectly. They must have had a BLAST on that set.

Oh, and this:



OMG.

So.

Many.

Funny.

Scenes.


What's your favorite?

Also - Has anyone else seen Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother with Feldman and Wilder? I'm going to have to watch it again.

I think that my only complaint is that it does run a bit long in the middle (I can't even identify specific scenes, but I think that it could have been a bit shorter).

However, still holds up and still is brilliant.

Looking forward to hear your thoughts on this movie and other Frankenstein films!
