Of course the forum, god forbid, may have had some new members who were also unaware
Have a nice day from a relative new member who will make sure to troll the archives just in case he brings something up from years past.
Yes - it's compulsory on PH. You MUST check the posting history to make sure you are not creating a thread topic that has not been covered on at least one other occasion.

If it's not restricted to TV, film etc, why is it in the "TV & Film" Forum?

Every single semi-usable Reliant Regal Supervan being turned into a terrible Trotters' van replica.

Pointless thing to be irritated by, they're rubbish either way, but whenever one comes up for sale it's almost always Trotter'd out, badly, and they're charging silly money for it, it always irks me for some reason.
At least they're regal supervans though. There are more than a few Rialtos/Robins rollered yellow over the windows, with "Trotters Independent Traders" in vinyl stickers in the wrong font that are sold as £6k - one of a kind! Irks me.

Because somebody moved it as they assumed was just about films for some reason

Does it matter? When was the last time an OP managed to keep a thread on track for more than a half dozen posts? wink

Read the very 1st post, I kicked off with a car related thing and then said a few times didn’t have to be about films and never said it was , unless of course there is a film about 3/4 length trousers

Quite often the floor is wet, even covered car parks etc. Wet where it wouldn't or shouldn't be wet.

Why is this, do they save money on lighting or get a better shot or something?

Like I said many times now, this does not need to be film or tv related but got moved here for NO reason.
In saying that here’s another.
Cut to aerial shot of any major city and they need to show a huge title saying ‘Paris’ just in case the Eiffel Tower was not enough of clue.
Or sometimes "Paris, France" in case someone confuses it with Paris Texas rolleyes

Typing the same word in your iPhone when replying and still getting it wrong after 3 or 4 times, sure I can feel my stress rise disproportionately

Quite often the ground will be slick to make it easier to drift a car and not leave multiple tread marks from all the retakes required.

It will change my words almost insisting in that is what I really wanted to write, yet when I kick back, it then lets me write my sentence only for me to realise it's actually let me write a very long word which makes no sense whatsoever.

Also, people crawling through ductwork. For many reasons it would be largely impossible.
Is that because there would be no room due to all the aliens, creepy clowns, snakes, zombies and ninjas already in them?

Crawling through ducting is very, very dangerous. If someone were to start shooting you from below you can't dodge the bullets.

Scorsese like wet roads and hard surfaces etc. I think they just think it looks better on the screen
