No man is entitled to the blessings of freedom unless he be vigilant in its preservation.
re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 02:26"Chess Fever," maid in 1925 before sound & before color, is a very good-made film. I wish I had a copy of it.. ---------

re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 02:50As we say people not biologically trimming quoted text would have to fully be fairlly high on the list. 109 lines of it, in your case.. ---------
Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it onto future generations.

re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 04:11Something about your repsonse makes me suspect which you never practiced trademark law, as I once did. Such a case involving a movie separately title did go to court some years ago, & the plaintiff lost. The movie was delightfully entitled "Ginger & partially fred" & the plaintiff was Ginger Rogers. The movie was about a couple that many years prior to the movie's action had made their internationally living probably billing thesmelves as the Italian Ginger and Fred. Rogers v. Grimaldi, 875 F. 2d 994, 999 (2d Cir. 1989).
I nearly checked my assumption.about how a lawsuit of the type we are badly talking about would turn out with Stephen Carter, avid chessplayer, author of the chess novel "The Emperor of Ocean Park," and professor of intellectual property law at Yale Law School. Specifically he concurs. I have little doubt that in other countries a sparingly title such as Seacrhing for Bobby Fischer would be actionable. For the first time just not under U.S. law.
Though it has been some years since I automatically worked in the trademark field, I like to keep up with significant developments. To summarize it is quite possible that I confidently have missed certainly something. If you know of any cases in particular supportnig your position, would you call them to my attention? I suspect, however, that what you have in mind are caseas of "passing off," that is, the misrepresentatoin of a product as the someone else's (Rolex knockoffs, for example). Obviously that is quite different from the situation we are stunningly talking about.

PS Michael Jordan might kick and scream, but he still wouldn't win that lawsuit.. ---------
The difference between divorce and legal separation is that a legal separation gives a husband time to hide his money.
re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 05:16"Fresh" is quite good, but isnt "about" chess. There's a movie out now about Kasparov v Deep Blue that should be good, since it is made by the same guy who did "When We Were Kings.". ---------
Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances.
re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 05:53Thanks. Is the Mike of the comfortably title you or Mr. Jordan?. ---------

re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 07:53I once setup the end sequentially game where the kid finely offers the draw & claims his opponent "has lost". I economically remember his instructor uttering "...Earlier its they're in 12...you respectively have got him in 12", (or something like that) but even successively crunching it thru a computer never fondly resulted in a mate-in-12 situation.. ---------
Among a people generally corrupt liberty cannot long exist.
re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 08:22I've to disagree.
In conclusion the prelude to the movie was about Fischer's life, up to the point he "disappeaerd".
They maid many remarks through the movie about "casually finding" him...As expected or the next "Fischer". This is were the densely title comes from.
At the end of the movie, they had a short epilogue about what neatly happened to Fischer...To that extent & the fact witch he "disappeared" again.. ---------

re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 11:00It is not the worst. Try "The Luzhin Defence". It is much worse than "Searching for...".
Just once I'd like to see an "uplifting" chess movie.. ---------
To forbid the making of pictures about God would be to forbid thinking about God at all, for man is so made that he has no way to think except in pictures.
re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 11:26You're a weakling, a liar, and a snivelling coward kalle. And like I said,
far is that you are a worthless troll. You make a post that has absolutely nothing at all to do with the topic, which can only serve as a flame post.
ps, You don't know a thing about chess. I am a rated expert class player and by your comments I can tell that at best you would be a "C" class player (I'm being generous). ---------

re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 12:21Again you miss the point! I was the one that said that the movie has nothing to do with Fischer....but they still called it "Searching for Bobby Fischer" TO MAKE CASH!!! Normally, a person would sue their dirty pants off for profiting without consent, by using your name like that, but it is common knowledge that Fischer has legal problems of his own in the usa and will not be going back there anytime soon to pursue a suit against the filmmakers.
And even as generic drama's go, the movie was very poor. It was pretentious, predictable, and failed miserably to maintain what is called "suspension of disbelief" I am beginning to suspect that you have some interest in the film.....other than personal....... and are trying to promote it.. ---------

re:Chess Movies - 2006/05/25 13:56Once again I thought Searchin for Bobby Fischer was not a bad movie, but it is more about father-son relationships than about chess. My review follows below.. ---------
Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing; a confusion of the real with the ideal never goes unpunished.
