- Anything vs. Batman...featuring "Prep Time"
- Updates/news on projects OKPs are working on.
- The incessant clowning on City of God posts

It's been a weird experience for me on this board, as I came into posting on here regularly in 2002 (although I'd been lurking on OKP for some time before that) as a junior college student. From then until now, I have earned enough credits to get outta JC, apply/get accepted to film school, graduated film school Cum Laude, and made numerous films. Between film school, Netflix, and this board, I've learned more about film than I ever thought I would. I still enjoy learning and studying...moreso now that I'm not in school. Posters like King Friday, Ricky Butler, Mynoriti, AFKAP, bignick, DrNO, and so many others (don't be hurt if I didn't mention you, ya'll know) have made informative posts and have taught me so much...from schooling me on classic films, to cinematography, to giving me tons of comics to read (buckshot I see you), and beyond...this board has really added to my schooling (as well as taking away from it, ironically).
