I know a few abbreviations listed in the FAQ, but I see soooo many
floating around in posts and I have no idea what they are.

Can we start listing some here in hopes that other poor saps like me
can find this thread someday and not have to remain clueless?

Here's what I can name off the top of my head:

TZ - Twilight Zone
T2 - Terminator 2
FH - Funhouse
CFTBL - Creature from the Black Lagoon (or Creech?)
IJ - Indiana Jones
LOTR - Lord of the Rings
WW - White Water
MM - Medieval Madness
ToM - Theater of Magic
CV - Cirqus Voltaire
CP - Championship Pub
FB - NBA Fastbreak
HS - High Speed
FP - Firepower

Alphabet soup anyone?

How come www.ipdb.org doesn't work for me anymore? My browser says
'can't find server'. I don't have any other browsing problems (although
I can't load the images in marvin's fix it site).
