I believe these brands of paint will be back under new ownership in less than a year.

I've become too cynical to believe an increase in viewing the film will ever happen...

Actually, it has. Sales of videos has well exceeded expectations for such a small indie film.

Why shouldn't I click on the second link?

Because it's another parody. One that I did.

My final point--hey, watch the actual film, instead of the parodies!

Why not both? I have the DVD, and I've also watched quite a few of the parodies. Most are pretty lame, but some are genuinely funny. And enjoying the parodies in no way taints my enjoyment of and respect for the film and the filmmakers.

Sounds like a line off a poster from the 1940s.

Is Hitler (dead or alive) going to take over the Floquil and PolyScale paint lines?  Otherwise, I don't see how Hitler relates to model paints.  :facepalm:

I stumbled into my LHS and they have lots of Polyscale.
I'm going to buy up a whack.  Looked like every Pennsy colour was fully stocked...

I'm not new or upset. But this one has really taken a sharp left at Albuquerque!

To continue the thread drift  :|, at the last model car club meeting I attended (my other hobby), one of the guys brought ovee an old plastic model kit his son found at a flea market. It was from the 60s, by a company I never heard of (IIRC, from NJ) and it was a caricature of Hitler!  As shown on the box, that kit series also featured caricatures of Mussolini and Castro.  None of this could possibly fly in today's politically-correct and touchy-feely world. Kind of like I just couldn't' see a movie like Blazing Saddles ever being produced for movie theaters in today's world.

Why bring it up? Because that kit was of excellent quality and it could be nicely decorated using Floquil or even PollyScale paints!  :trollface:
