Since we are on the subject of Japanese films, if anyone remembers, what ever happened to the Japanese superhero "Starman" who fought villians using gymnastics? This could make a good TCM Saturday matinee -
I just thought of a perfect 2 headed horror flick, "The Two Headed Man Driving a Toyota" turn left, no turn right, no turn left

What part of the US is [i]The West[/i] in most Western movies?

How about a western movie that was not shot in the west but was not even shot in this country. http://www.terencehill.com/special_trin1.html Explains why the "Trinity" movies are known as spaghetti westerns. -

This is why I like Directv's simple approach to plot descriptions. Always simple and straight to the point. "The Big Sleep Well" (1960) Japanese police and a tychoon's son-in-law discover corporate corruption. -
Website Suggestion On the next website update (shutter) why not place a trash can icon at the top right so we can discard unwanted threads or post shortly after creation. One will only need to right click "drop and drag" to the trash can.

What is with 3D anyhow? The last "Titanic" was good enough, no need for a make over. I think showing this tragedy in 3D of the ship sinking and people dying in the cold Alantic is a bit morbid. What's next "Pearl Harbor" in 3D? Or the next 9/11 movie? It might be interesting if they made a movie about the people who had money invested in the White Star Lines.

So sad, I got to know him as a child watching the old "Mission Impossible" TV series. Really liked him in the "Airplane!" comedy" RIP Peter -
An evening with Tina Louise - on TCM.

I was reading my Directv's guide description of "For Those Who Think Young", A rich beach bum hangs out in a nightclub with his poor girlfriend and bearded *beatnik* buddy. Beatnik, there's a generation we don't hear much about today. (I think they are virtually forgotten). Oh man can we have a beatnik night? -

That was so nice of the theatre employee in the layercake photo to find and return the forgetful patrons purse. -

Hmmm what else can fit inside a *hat box?!*. I wouldn't be concerned about food! -

About searching though people's handbags, I think this might be a court case in the making, it will probually be challanged very soon. Bringing food in, there should be a policy of bringing in certain items that can be a hazard like pizza boxes, etc. Its pretty hard to walk in between the narrow passages and I have myself took a nasty slip before. I didn't make an issue of it because I liked the manager and his wife. This is the reason why bottles and pop cans are banned, mostly due to insurance and liability. Yes theatres should not allow certain foods in and should have a policy notice displayed at the ticket booth or concession stand. They only need to make common sense judgement call, but searching handbags is uncalled for. I doubt a handbag would contain a thanksgiving dinner. We should take note that the prices are high but this is the only way theatres can keep their doors open. They DO NOT make money at the ticket counter. The staggering bond (upfront cost) they have to put up and the amount film studios wants in percentage leaves nothing to pay the bills. I never had problems buying at the concession stand but the main reason I don't go to the theatre anymore is the small screen and high ticket prices - its not worth it. The comment about "won't be able to make out", I hope you are referring to kissing only. I remembered the manager had to throw 2 people out for making love in the balcony.
