  1. Shame there wasn't a Grubhub back then, could had saved a lot of pain and suffering.
  2. (and it's not "The Yaussians Are Coming." )
  3. Wow somebody in Flesh Gordon is flashing! Love that parody homage. Those robot insects reminds me of the "locust with metal breastplates" in Revelation by which some certain ladies could use.
  4. Add Jonny Quest to my list. No other cartoon has a more scary perfect villain. The very evil, heartless Dr Zin.
  5. A very noisy sparkler at that. Strange how the sci fi writers during the 1930's thought the Earth's atmosphere went up and on forever even though photos from stratosphere balloons clearly show it thinning out. Explorer II high-altitude balloon. Historical image of the Explorer II high-altitude balloon during its flight. Explorer II was a manned balloon launched on 11th November 1935. It reached a record altitude of 22,066 metres and carried a two man crew inside a sealed spherical gondola.
  6. This cartoon series brought forth a doll that was UGLIER than Chucky!!
  7. Back then many thought the future of air travel would had been air ships. Flying hotels, hospitals , etc. One did envision space travel back in the '30's, see how that turned out.
  8. I only watched the 1960's Flinstones, but nothing after except the movie. Almost forgot the original Scooby Doo (none of Scrappy)
  9. Re: One of the Nickelodeon channels last week were looking back on the 1980's - 90's. Showed some of the Ren and Stimpy shows. This one killed me! Say you know who'd like this? MA! Hey Ma!!
  10. They were experimenting / developing electronic television here during the 30's but a standard couldn't be set. (history repeated during the 1990's with HD ) One station operated in New York, broadcasting FDR. Europe was ahead of us, especially the UK and Germany. Camera used during the 1936 Berlin Olympics There was a system developed during the 1920's called Baird. It's more mechanical but it actually worked to a degree.
  11. Wish they did an episode of this... https://www.ktva.com/story/38346721/wildlife-officials-sedate-moose-shot-with-target-arrow Hey Rocky, watch me pull an arrow out of my ***.
  12. Beside some of the ones mentioned but also... Casper Aquaman Be interesting if Hollywood bring the Herculoids and Space Ghost to life. Some years back a fan had a design neater than this, can no longer find the image.
  13. What really blows me away in the movie is not did it predicted TV but 16 X 9 HD television! Could be watching a classic movie on TCM since it's in B&W. Wonder does the guy complain about aspect ratios. Didn't have to wait until 2036!
  14. Alan Hale's (jr) waistline has always been stretched.
  15. What is this thing about the top / bottom black lines on widescreen that bugs people so much. This has been talked about to death. TCM has explained this, one is not losing anything vs pan and scan which one will. Next time a widescreen Panavision is shown at the local cinema...PAY ATTENTION!. Geeze!
