LOOK WHO'S TALKING has no business airing on TCM
darkblue replied to LornaHansonForbes's topic in General Discussions
All that ancient chamber stuff sounds crappy to me. I can listen to it for about 5 minutes, but not with any enjoyment on my part. Monotonous is the best word I can think of for it. -
I've listened to that one with a shot glass in my hand more often than I care to admit.

HITS & MISSES: Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow on TCM
darkblue replied to Bogie56's topic in General Discussions
'Wrestling Ernest Hemingway' (1993) this evening is the best movie of the day - probably the best of the entire month. Naturally, Canadians won't get it. We get 'The Women' instead. Ugh. -

Marilyn Monroe for [Insert month here] SOTM!

'Eye of the Needle' (1981) is another interesting Sutherland movie. And, of course, we shouldn't forget "The Day of the Locust' (1975). -
But, if Fred is anything like the other septuagenarians I know, he'll never be able to figure out how to set the clock on the vcr in a million years, let alone set the timer-record.

Militant, huh? Not women-empowering stuff like those Kate Hepburn/Joan Crawford movies of the past, no sir. ''Look Who's Talking' is a call to arms - death to America!

It has a nice score by Elmer Bernstein. I certainly have it marked for recording, but the horror of blocking signals has put some serious doubt into that plan. -
You didn't think OP actually knew what the word meant, did you?

Yeah. You're a kid.

I'm sure she thinks it's as pointless as most of us do. Colorization is for kids.

He thinks it's people who watch 'Lost in Space' reruns. There ya go.

Still is, I believe.

It's available in Europe (the unrated version). You can view what's been covered up here if you wish: http://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=853344

Anytime any movie gets made that shows me something I haven't seen before, I'm glad of it. No matter how other people felt about it; no matter what critics had to say, 'A Clockwork Orange' was different from what I had seen before. That used to happen quite a bit after 1965.

I only know her because the 'Goodbye to You' video played in an episode of Beavis and Butthead. They made fun of the group and of her (no surprise there). All I know is that, looking at pictures of her from then and from now, it's a cruel crime what time can do to a cute chick.

I've got to, do I. You make your requests, I'll make mine. -
'Cooley High' (1975) is a nice little collectable. Kind of an African-American 'American Graffiti'.

One of Dustin's best! Dark and real, with Gary Busey before he became a joke. Theresa's first movie (oops, sorry - 2nd movie - didn't realize she was in 'The Last Tycoon' before this). Thankyou IMDb. And thank you, TCM. You're getting better all the time with these wonderful 70's (and 80's) movies. Sandy Dennis is terrific in 'Come Back to the 5 & Dime' - one of her best.

Who is putting together the monthly schedules?

Capital punishment? You know he'd kill himself. -

There's an African-American one right there in the front row. And a whole bunch of dudes in the back row. Maybe the guys in back like looking at the chicks and the one at the front doesn't like looking at chicks (although he is smiling luminously at the instructor). Come to think of it, there's a whole bunch of teeth showing in this group. Do the instructors tell a lot of jokes at these things? -

I'd like to see Donald Sutherland be SOTM sometime. Prolific actor. Caught him in 'A Dry White Season' the other night - just excellent, as usual. -
Ever Do Anything STUPID Just Because You Saw It In A Movie?
darkblue replied to TomJH's topic in General Discussions
Back in my crazy teens I tried a couple of times to hang my leg on people the way Harpo did. They never appreciated it and would always pull back - so I could never achieve it and got a couple of angry looks from people who didn't understand the humour I was referencing. Gave up on that. But did the Groucho walk quite often. Fun times. -

Fanta, huh? See - something good did come out of the Third Reich after all. Always liked that orange drink.
