1. I clicked on this topic because
I can't remember but one movie about Karen Carpenter. Maybe there were more than one, but I don't remember it. Now I know that Zomby is a sick bastard. Oh, well.

2. Di You Hear That...
...when she died, everybody was in bed when they brought her home, so they told her to just slide her under the door.

I know that's sick, and I do know what a tragedy her disease is, so go ahead and flame away. I've got it coming! :spank:

4. Hey, Z-woof -
Why do birds suddenly appear,
every time you are near...

As punishment for posting this topic, this Karen Carpenter tune will repeat in your brain over and over all night long. I know, this is cruel, but an eye for an eye....

5. SUPERSTAR ! ! !
This is the student film masterpiece made by Todd Haynes (dir. Far From Heaven, Safe, Velvet Goldmine). It is the Karen Carpenter story told entirely with Barbie Dolls and it is surprisingly moving, informative and chilling.

It cannot, to my knowledge, ever be legally shown or distributed due to pending lawsuits by both the Carpenter's estate and Mattel.

If you know someone with a tenth generation copy they taped off someone, for God's sake see it. It is beautiful.




The Thin Blue Line rules too.

6. Superstar --- by Todd Haynes
director of Velvet Goldmine and Far From Heaven...

...the movie that Richard Carpenter prevented from ever being released in 1987... (but lives on, via the internet...)

**** - Roger Ebert


(Yeah, I know the thread was a joke. But you gotta see this movie. Feature length, using nothing but Barbie & Ken dolls.)
