    I don't know. To me, an inaccuracy is an inaccuracy and not an insult.  I feel the reporter didn't mean to be insulting. Surely he must have had a source if he said "reportedly".

    Odd.  I just checked ahead on my cable server's guide for tomorrow and it just said(starting at 8pm)  "Movie to be announced".

    It's done that before a few months ago.  I just thought it was some issue with my cable server.  Now I wonder what gives?

    It's the night TCM is going to show some of the films being placed on the National Film Registry. Is that not clear on this thread? These films weren't announced by the Registry until this morning, and I assume TCM now has to scramble and figure how many of these 25 films they have access to and can get on the air by tomorrow night.

    They ran Fathom Events promos for "The Godfather" and I don't think TCM has ever run that movie.  Paramount.

    TCM did show The Godfather and The Godfather Part II back to back in August, 2008. I know. I was watching! The story's been told on here several times before. There was literally a one-day window where the rights were being transferred from one entity to another, and TCM got the opportunity for these once-only airings.

  9. So, pardon my ignorance, but are laserdiscs and their players still a thing you can go out an buy in a store somewhere, or would you have to troll eBay and such like you would to get a VCR? I've never used or had any experience with them and know little about them. Interestingly, just days ago, I read an article from a magazine about comic books (I used to be a collector) from 1983 that was playing up the idea that laser discs would be a fantastic format for storing and easily accessing thousands of old comic books. I don't know that this idea ever much went anywhere as technology continued to change. I think today you can get pay for digital access to practically the entire Marvel and DC catalogs and maybe material from other publishers. 

  10. My prediction is TCM will definitely show Cabin in the Sky and The Man with the Golden Arm and maybe A Clockwork Orange late at night. Also Outrage was an RKO release, so it's a possibility. I think The Hurt Locker was part of their women directors series, so maybe they still have access to that. They were very recently promoting The Blues Brothers in theaters jointly with Fathom Events, but securing rights for these must be an entirely different animal from showing them on TV because some of these TCM/Fathom Events movies never air on TCM.
