ATTENTION... HARRY KNOWLES and all the ships at sea!
Hey Harry I hope you're reading this. Sister Satan is having a BOY! Yes you are going to be an Uncle with a nephew. Tooooo Cooooooool!!! Dannie says to tell you that there are NO wild boar tusks on the spawn of Sister Satan. Hope you're not the last person in the world to hear about this. Got to run, she's got live footage on video tape and stills, we'll try and post them here later. Hope you guys are still alive and not rotting in some Central American prison, or rebel's bamboo cage?
Father Really Really Geeky
PS. I need a box of great Cuban cigars!

May God shine His blessings most greatly on this beautiful new addition to your family.

Congratulations to the Knowles family.

... and to think I was going to ask for her hand in marriage just so I can say "Harry from "ain't it cool? Yeah, dude's my brother in law."

Nephews are kool. You can give them their first beer and stuff.

Hope you have a great time with your nephew. Send my best to your sister.

Congratulations, all!

Maybe this one will grow up to be a great international film director along the lines of Hitchcock or Kubrick (with less eccentricities). To the Knowles family, that's the same as saying the kid will grow up to be president of the United States.
-
If it's a boy,use "Angelo".If it's a girl,use "Kekko".Trust me,I'm an expert on names.My cousin never stopped thanking me after I suggested she name her baby "Electric Boogaloo".It sounds better if you say it out loud.

I like you a lot.You're one of the few posters who hold this site together(along with ME...I don't mean to toot my own horn,but TOOT TOOT!).However,the names seem a bit off.I would suggest a REAL fanboy use Sulu,Kirk,Nimoy,Kekko,Luke,Han,(again),Kiki,Mononoke,or maybe AnnieMay(get it?Ha ha ha).Thanks for listening to my rantings...

Oh well, congratulations Harry and to the mother-to-be. I guess this means no college...

Congratulations on the arrival of the little bundle of joy! Way cool. In honor of the event I be bumpin' "Never Ending Math Equation" by Modest Mouse in my small and anime-infested apartment. Appropriate? Maybe not but I feel happy today. WHOO-HOO! Have a cee-gar, y'all.

I have, and let me tell you, they more than live up to their hype. I remember it was so powerful, so packed with rich nicotine, that I literally became dizzy and had to sit down. As did the two or three people with me, owing only to the secondhand smoke. They are AMAZING cigars.

Congratulations to the entire Knowles family! But Harry, hold off on showing the little rugrat your horror movie collection at least until he's in kindergarten. I know you're an anxious uncle, but there's no need to traumatize the poor kid..... yet. :) But seriously, congrats and a rousing HUZAH to you!!
-
If you're going to name 'em, name 'em after the best. ALTERNATIVES: Mick Travis Knowles, Charles Foster Knowles, Harry Lime Knowles, Alex DeLarge Knowles, Or the ultimate name... KEYSER SOZE KNOWLES!!!
-
And Spider Monkey is the first name. Not a first and a middle name. Consider it.
-
god we are a sad bunch*laugh*suggesting names over talkback, but gee isn't it fun, Siuster Satan, Father Geek, and sir Harry, and the of course the proud Poppa, congrats, this is one hick former farm boy wannabe actor who says go for the gusto and have some fun, teach the kid all you know about movies and life and life an dmovies, introduce him to the greats, the Hitchs the Kurswuas(sp?) The Kubricks, The Speilbergs, The Lucases, The Kazans, The Ramis, The Romeros, the Carpenters and The Welles of this world, intorduce him to actors like DiNiro, Like Cambell, Like Shatner...oh wait*laugh*...Introduce him to the world of Liteturce, the world of HG Welles, and CS Lewis, the World of JRR Tolkin and Jules Verge, but don't forget the world of Bob Kane and jack Kirby and Stan Lee...take heart that this little boy is special to not just your family but to the international family that this site brings you...And of course what kind of "Uncle Bob" would I be if I didn't suggest some names, HAWKEYE or THOR...yeah that's the ticket--god bless, Everett Robert
-
First I want to say cangratulations on the baby, I'm sure Harry would make a great uncle, and I'm sure Sister Satan would make a great mother. Again cangratulations, and for god sakes, name the kid Stanley!
One more thing, though, I just want to say. MQBlank, SSZero, Slidetime, GravyAkira, and Silentscott, show some fuckin respect. -
Don't EVER and I mean EVER pull all the smoke from a Cuban, Yikes! I wonder if the birth will be like the end of Rosemary's baby. This is bigger news then anything from X-Men to Spider-man!I hope that adorable little Fetus grows to be just like Uncle Harry...I just hope hes a little smaller when he passes through the birth cannel. Love Godfather Gilmour:):):):):)

is everything in a serious news site, and it is wholly innapropriate for a serious news organization to be posting sonogram results of the publisher's nephew.... That said, this is a fan site, that, despite the fact that it is cool enough for anyone reading this to have scrolled all the heck the way down here...and personal messages to Harry, well, its his site...dont act like its CNN.com, or some such shit....silly fools....enjoy baby news...i just got another new neice, Hannah Reiko....on thrsday...whats with the dot dot dot...who am i...Larry King?...CONGRATS HARRY....she should name him, uhhh, Sue...a boy named Sue

David Fincher & Ed Norton.
Although Todd thinks it was the Iron Giant, I don't think she'd have survived that.

I can't wait for Thanksgiving!

Congratulations to Harry's sis for becoming a mom, and to Harry for being an uncle. The rest of the Legion Of Super-Heroes send their best, but they're all off on a top-secret mission and left me all alone to monitor duty. *SIGH* Oh well, all the best to all of ya! And to all of you bitter cynics out there? Get a life!
-
So, from Harry's post in the talk backs of the story about the director of Blade, I figure the due date is roughly late June, early July? (He stated that when she pulled her spy caper she was about 2 months pregnant and implied it took place sometime around the end of Nov/early Dec.) Who knows maybe the little rug rat will be a Yankee Doodle Dandy born on the 4th of July and they will name him after Jimmy Cagney.(JC Knowles wouldn't sound half bad actually) If that doesn't work out, I vote for the Ash suggestion. It's just a cool name.
-
I should note right off that (a) I
-
Thats the good stuff. I myself have a Cuban here waiting for me, and it shall be my first, but I need a personally momentous occasion for that one (no disrespect to the expecting). Anyway, you all should stop coming up with names for the kid and matching it up to Knowles cause you dont even know if Sis is gonna have that last name - wait and see what Harry and Poppa have to say first.
-
it is run almost totally by family members and a small group of close personal friends. We share our feelings, insights, hopes & dreams, and information with the world, for free. There are no monthly dues or fees charged, you don't even have to register any where to access AICN. If tomorrow we changed the format totally that is our right, just as it is your right to come and go thru the site as you wish at no $ cost to you. Harry is out of the country, I don't know where for sure, this is the only way I have to let him know about something he was very interested in. Is it proper to put here. Sure! I wish I had $2 for every time I've heard a news anchor say on TV that so and so staff member just had a kid etc...Magazines and newspapers constantly mention births, deaths ,and illness' of staff members, Late night talk shows, EW, and others are ripe with comments like,"Hey I hear your brother (or sister) just had a kid." It is actually more appropiate to bring it up here than in those corperate owned giants. AICN is a solely owned business as of right now, its possible even probable that in the not too distent future we may go public. If, or when that happens alot of things may change at AICN. Hopefully the personal touch won't.

Roger Ash Knowles. That's my pick and I'm sticking with it.***WOW...you guys! While it's more than pleasing to hear what you're saying here, I never thought of myself as part of the "glue" of Talk Back, just a gal with a little too much time on her hands and a great love for movies and strange people who love movies.***And SSZero, in your wildest dreams, baby. In your wildest dreams....

Let Sister Satan know our suggestions...and man, these are the times I wish my chain cigar smoking uncle were here. That guy has more cigars (including Cubans) than he knows what to do with. Wait, bad images of young interns and presidents just came to mind...I'm going to go throw up.
-
How about "DIRK KNOWLES" after that sauve character, Dirk Benedict? It has a ring to it.
-
I guess old Luca brasi was wishing for the Knowles clan instead of the Corleons. My only request and i know i have never met anyone of you face to face but i think it would be kick ass if the first movie the kid sees is 2001.
-
Alex De Large Knowles would be the perfect name! Congrats to Sister Satan...just don't forget our advice! =)-Alex

Given the obsessions of AICN the kid has to be called ANAKIN

Splendid news Knowles Family, his Uncle Reni reckons he should be a Man City Fan... I'll be gutted if he supports United...
-
Well, I've said it to Dannie already, but let me say it again: congratulamations. You're having a boy. This means, of course, that you will have to relocate to a location Harry doesn't know, change your identity, and raise the boy in secret. If not, Harry is going to actually have the chance to influence the boy, and that... well, that scares me. At least you TALK BACKers are pitching in to help, eh? Believe me when I say that I mean this with utmost respect and affection: you people are retarded. Only here could someone come up with my personal three favorite choices for baby names so far. In ascending order, they are -- NUMBER THREE, Spider Monkey. NUMBER TWO, Keyser Soze. NUMBER ONE (by a huge margin), Power Man. In fact, screw that... I'm changing MY name to Power Man.
-
I second the "Charles Foster Knowles" sentiment. I'm also found of Basil. Not enough Basils in the world today!
-
The only righteous thing to do is to pick the name most mentioned in the history of AICN talkbacks. Forunately I have a 22nd century search engine that allows me to do just that. Here goes ... wait a minute this takes time... and the most mentioned name in the history of AICN talkacks is ... NO NO - JAR JAR KNOWLES!
-
Ha!
All you poor pitiful Americans being ruled by your treachorous, imperialist government!
Luckily I live in a quiet country, respecting of other nations' rights to self determination, and hence has no devastating and democracy-choking trade embargo with Cuba... hell, we go on vacations there! And buy cigars! And bring them home!
And your spiteful government tries to restrict our right to travel to your country from those of us who actually do business in Cuba... give me a break!
Stupid Helmes-Burton law!
Freedom my... Ahem!
Take care y'all! -

Did you guys read the story in Variety this morning? Julianne Moore is going to play Clarice in HANNIBAL opposite the great Hopkins! Honestly, I was hoping for Cate Blanchette, but Julianne will be fabulous. :)

He'd have a proud legacy to live up to, but I know the Knowles clan would be more than up to the task. Should my glorious moniker not strike your fancy, might I suggest the following: Yor, The Hunter From The Future Knowles, Joe Don Knowles, Curley Neal Knowles, Eric Stratton Knowles, or Akiva Knowles. In any event, I wish good health, and a happy childhood for the little one. Well done!
-
We have no right to judge on whether or not it is right for the younger Knowles to be a mother (at such a young age): as long as the child is loved and raised to be a good and moral person, right? So we can keep our 'WTF' comments inside our minds (as I am). But why this family news was posted by Father Greek on AICN *at all* confuses me as well. At any rate, my vote for a name: "Hogarth".
-
Sorry, just listening to the Alphaville song as I write this. Congrats to the future mother and the entire Knowles family. But really, are we really going to see MPEGs or vidcaps of the fetus gestating in her womb (it sounds so cute when you put it that way)-- or was that a joke? You would really let these dim-bulbs make comments on this growing child?
"Where's the fetus going to gestate? You going keep it in a box?" (anyone else think Harry's been pregnant?) -
so a lil' devil on the way? spawn of satan in the works? happy, happy, joy, joy; cheers all around. why not just 'baby geek' for a handle? (or Federico-geeko, if you need something more formal for official occasions) and, if we're going to spark something for the occasion, and it is a something suffering under the impact of prohibition because of our imperialistic interventionist U$A gov't, gotta go with the Philly Blunts over the cubans (although some may prefer to just blow bubbles for joy)! over&out
-
Congrats sister satan... Names are always hard, How about Clint Eastwood Knowles or John Wayne Knowles....? Or even Noel Knowles? My favorite is "Wedge Knowles", he could use the catch phrase from Star Wars, "Look at the size of that thing." Red leader is tellin' me to cut the chatter so.... That's my 2 red cents worth, Red_2 out.

Gomez! Take those out of his mouth...
Sorry, couldn't resist. Congrats to all the Knowles clan! -
Bregalad_: whilst standing in line at the bank this morning the helpful informative video screen behind the tellers informed me that Angelina Jolie will be opposite sir Hopkins in HANNIBAL. (The Entertainment! segment was followed by Trivia! "what was the name of the character played by Marlon Brando in A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE?" hey, there's some baby names in there somewhere!) I did see the Variety bit, though, and it seems definitive. Hmmm. Whom shall we believe? over&out all over again.

Glad to hear the good news.

Hey! Who out there has a DVD deck. A lot of you I'll bet. I've spent several months telling people how with my DVD player I get to watch movies as they were when in theaters in widescreen; meaning that when they made the videocassette they chopped off the left and right of the image so it fits on your TV screen. Last week I watched my tape copy of Starship Troupers and compared it to my DVD. I was shocked to see that in most of the talking scenes they had cropped the top and bottom of the image for my wide-screen version! As the penultimate example, in the shower scene, you can see Flores's nipples on the cassette, but they get chopped off on my wide-screen DVD. In the big-money shots with 500 bugs on screen, however, they do what I was expecting and cut off the right and left edges of the picture. My DVD player has an option for full-screen mode which played it the exact same as my cassette. This leaves me having to choose whether I want to see nipples or bugs when I watch it!
Tonight I put on my Heavy Metal Cassette beside my DVD. It really pissed me of!!! For the wide-screen DVD edition they have cropped the top and bottom of what I get to see on my VHS cassette. When I put the DVD deck into full-screen mode it takes the cropped DVD edition and ***stretches*** it vertically to fit it to full screen. Man, I am getting hosed here! I have to choose between full content or high resolution.
I then put in the last movie for which I have both versions: Armageddon. It is a high ratio (2.35:1) wide screen movie. The previous two were low-ratio (1.85:1) wide-screen. It shown in its entirety fully cropped on the cassette. At least I have some comfort that on a high-ratio movie I am getting my moneys' worth.
-
I just thought it up right now. No geek-movie conotations, I just think it sounds cool. "What's your name, Jr.?" "FLEX!" (Puts on shades, drives off into the sunset) Yeah, y'know, fuck that, I'm naming MY kids Flex! PS- Who wants to start a pool if the kid's gonna be born into wedlock or not? My money's on the "not" side. Way to buck the system, baby, yeah!
