I also like "Pass the Popcorn"... even if I hate popcorn eating people in cinemas!!!!

I think it was Din who named the Movie Forum, so maybe he should be asked.

We could always call it "The Giant Ripoff" because movies are so fricking expensive today.

It also sounds like a giant blast of flatulence, TED.

How do you say "Pass the Popcorn" in Latin?

Have you seen some of the trailers for some movies lately? I think flatulence is a great description. :P

Obduco Popcorn

Perhaps not what you were looking for :P :D

Yes, we should ask Dindraug of course. But somehow I don't think he would be very happy with this idea at present.

Let's give this a rest please, shall we, until after the summer ;)

I agree on trying this again later. No point in approaching Din right now. I believe Alandriel is right about Din's possible reaction.

Obduc popcornem, thank you very much.

Imperative mood for the verb and accusative case for the noun.

What gender is popcorn?

If we voted on it, would that count?

It doesn't matter what gender popcorn is... that's the beauty of the third declension!

Unless you want buttered popcorn, or salted popcorn... :P

In German, Popcorn is neutral, in French Popcorn is masculin....

Actually, I think popcorn would be "granum salitum" and the line should be "trade grana salita" (I guess it should be in the plural).
:scratch :P

Yeah, trado works better than obduco, methinks, and popcorn is one of those things that I would guess the Romans would put into an idiom... assuming they had it in the first place.
