Picking your own movies to watch on Halloween
Snarfie replied to dsclassic's topic in General Discussions
A little off topic just when we were getting back on track here. Anyone else watching Goosebumps this month on Cartoon Network? They're showing two episodes per weekday night for a total of 40 episodes this month. -
do you find pre-code movies slightly disappointing?
Snarfie replied to dfordoom's topic in Pre-Code Films
I have to disagree. One of the things I like about pre-codes is the unpredictability of the endings. -
Yeah, they might not be word-for-word.

"Just can't seem to forget you, that Windsong stays on my mind.." Levis commercial to the tune of "Mule Skinner Blues", "Creee - eee --- eee- eepy crawlers.." Choo, choo Charlie was an engineer... (I see someone's mentioned this one already) You'll get a quick tan with QT! Rice-a-roni, the San Francisco treat. Hamm's, the beer refreshing. It's so fast that you can't drink it slow if it's Quik... I see someone else has already mentioned "I'd like to buy the world a coke" For those of us who grew up in the 60's and 70's there's just too many to list! These were just a few off the

I never saw Advance to the Rear (1964) before - until yesterday. I like Glenn Ford in a comedy and it seems that this was also an influential movie.

Thanks for the reply, We have Channel 23 in the Chicago area which airs similar old shows - so between them and TV Land I can still see episodes from the remaining seasons of Green Acres but I'd just as soon not bother and instead have that sharp crisp DVD quality. >i know in the late seventies-early eighties all of rita haywoth's >technicolor musicals that played on late night television-- >my first time ever seeing her films-- were inferior black&white prints >from "screen gems", i'd read somewhere color wasn't needed >when the majority of televisions were b&a
