  1. "The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds" (1972) Combining 2 one liners might make it interesting... Beatrice....My life is full, my life is full.....of rabbit crap.
  2. Just now on the news for those whom use the theater subscription service. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/moviepass-shut-down-1239587
  3. I think they were mentioned long ago in the Lookalike thread. But the thread is so old, photos may not be available.
  4. Maybe by simply showing part of the opening scene stating Stitch is an alien lab experiment would had resolved that question. The Lion King satire only added confusion.
  5. Kirk in "Generations" had a one liner (one of the best) that humorously showed his age. Talking to Picard...I've been saving the galaxy since your grandfather was in diapers.
  6. From wiki.. .... In the late 1960s, few professional football games took longer than two and a half hours to play, and the Jets–Raiders' three-hour time slot was thought to be adequate. A high-scoring contest, together with a number of injuries and penalties for the two bitter AFL rivals, caused the game to run long. NBC executives had originally ordered that Heidi begin at 7:00 p.m. ET, but then decided to allow the game to air to its conclusion. However, communicating this revised plan to the technicians running NBC's master control proved impossible -- as 7 p.m. approached, NBC's switchboards were jammed by viewers phoning to inquire about the night's schedule, preventing the planned change from being communicated. Heidi began as scheduled, preempting the final moments of the game and the two Oakland touchdowns in the eastern half of the country, to the outrage of viewers. Today a football game will be aired to it's conclusion regardless of what's scheduled.
  7. Diana Durrell as Miss Carol in the controversial movie "Child Bride" (1938) She was both a teacher and an activist to end the practice of child marriage in some crazy backwoods. School should been named "Pigeon Drop Elementary".
  8. "Dora's Dunking Donuts" (1933) comedy short. Andy Clyde played a teacher that got stumped with the "Who's buried in Grant's Tomb" question.
  9. That definitely is a scam! The OP system does not expire but you do have only about 2 activations with Win 7 but I don't know about higher versions. Discovered something recently, the Windows XP Home Edition didn't require activation which surprised me. Had to use it on this machine, for some strange reason the Professional version won't install, keep getting an "Out of memery" (OM error). Every computer does have some type of software quirk. Roxio Burner malfunctions! Fortunately found Deep Burner which works perfectly. Exception - Anti-virus software does expire, a real pain!
  10. It will always be known as the Heidi Bowl (or Game). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1zF2cGSjSw How dare they interrupt the game, the heresy.
  11. There is a Catholic nun teacher that stayed drunk in "Bruno" (aka "The Dress Code"). Sorry but there's no character name in the film. Bad teacher!
  12. Miss Shields in "A Christmas Story"
  13. I've seen mother and she's not doing well.
  14. What probably made the football fans madder, that version turned out to be the most boring. But what does one expect from a made for TV movie. Far as multiple versions, "Heidi" comes in second from "A Christmas Carol" for the most remakes. Last was in 2015. (Anuk Steffen ties Scut Farkus for the most rotten name. )
  15. Re: CAROL LYNLEY, ‘THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE’ STAR, DIES AT 77 Wonder if her memorial services be held in St Simons, Georgia?
  16. Thumbs down on the lousy SFX's. For the plot, at the center of the galaxy.... That sort of killed it, didn't it?
  17. Uh what info is there to steal if none is to be had? I've learned back during the Windows 98 era that viruses / malware are OP specific. I had the so called "unremovable" (anti virus software couldn't delete them - only quarantine) i.e. Speedy.bat, Natal.pif, etc. Rebooting system under DOS only C: prompt rendered then inactive. Couldn't work under DOS / Win 3.1 environment. Deleting was a piece of cake. Never had any attacks with this computer since purchasing it some time back. Guess using the firewall and breaking broadband connection when not on the internet helped as well.
  18. The risk applies to people whom has an account, this is part of the reason I'll never join such. Just non subscribers reading won't put one at risk. Even if someone hacked TCM, what's to learn, my personal info is non existent For any viruses / trojans, it will be incompatible with Windows XP . What hacker will waste the time writing such for a long since outdated OP system (which still works great for me)?
  19. Long as the OP are movie or TV related, the TCM rules doesn't dictate where the info comes from
