  1. I just finished watching Follow the Fleet on DVR, from t'other day, and I adore it as well. The subplot can shut up, but Fred and Ginger are amazing.
  2. MONKEY BUSINESS (Marx Brothers) next: skipping stones
  3. Unger, Felix ------ Jack Lemmon in the ODD COUPLE
  4. That is a shame. I love Jerry Lewis, I must say, so I'm surprised myself. And "Maybe they are being shown on TCM France" made me laugh, Scottman. Thanks.
  5. Wish there could have been a whole movie with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly dancing together, rather than just that one segment. Some awesome buddy musical with lots of duets. Another film I would like to have seen would be Lucile Ball and Carol Burnett. Imagine the comedy. Oh the laughter. There are a bunch of people who only made one movie together but who did such a great job that I wish they had done more films. The first example I can think of is Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye. They were so great together in White Christmas. Tis a pity they did not get to make more films together. On that film, Bing and Rosemary Clooney were a good pair. Too bad they didn't make more films either.
  6. No, because I'm incredibly careful about what I go see in a movie theater. But there are many movies I've turned off half-way through.
  7. Lili Five Graves to Cairo What's So Bad About Feeling Good Goodbye Charlie A New Leaf I'll just jump in with TV in case anyone's listening: The rest of Animaniacs The rest of Bob Newhart SHow Carol Burnett SHow What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown
  8. I caught this on TCM a while back and have been waiting for it again. Great movie. Especially crazy to see how much the whole city was bombed just yards away from the miraculously untouched cathedral. Amazing how close we came to losing that awesome cathedral forever. How I love that place.
  9. The answer is no. I'm the same age and I'm a mega huge fan. But I do feel like I'm the only one. Yay! I'm not!
  10. Mazeltov, Kingrat! You completely deserve it! But awesome job to all my fellow nominees. I hope more people will participate next time. It's really not as hard as it looks. In fact it's lots of fun. The problem is you can't stop coming up with ideas for themes. You watch a movie and think of how you can link it to other movies. It's addicting. But I can quit anytime I want to--I just don't want to.
  11. I've been having such a bad weekend at work, there's nothing like coming home to read all these kind remarks and see that I have at least 3 votes!! And I agree, countess, this was more exciting that the Oscars.

  14. My dad got a scholarship to Cornell but did not go because he refused to do "Streamers." (He did not want to appear nude on stage). But that was some time ago. I think these days people refuse jobs because they don't like the director or don't think the job will further their career. Or the money. It's always the money. ======ONE DAY MORE ======== The TCM Programming Challenge needs your vote!

  16. Yes, I am a huge MST3K fan. I am ashamed to say that the MST3K version of Hamlet is the one I know best and have seen the most. I publicly apologize to Olivier, Zeffirelli, Brannagh, etc. In view of this, here's another Vole: STAR WARS EPISODE CVI: THE REVENGE OF HAMLET Hamlet Skymoaner is after Darth Claudius because he killed his father, only to hear Darth Claudius say those immortal words, "No, Hamlet, I am your father." Then Hamlet finds out his aunt is really his..... MOTHER?!!!! Darth Claudius sends RosenD2 and C-GuildPO along with Hamlet to get Hamlet killed on Hoth. But Hamlet kills Darth Claudius in the end anyway. In gender reversal, Hamlet has and destroys a relationship with Hanphelia Solo, which angers Hanphelia's sister Leiartes. The accidental murder of Hanphelia and Leiartes' father, Chewbaccius, sends Hanphelia into insanity and Leiartes on a murderous TIE fighter battle with Hamlet. Hamlet is finally annihilated when he accidentally blows up the Elsinor Death Star while still being on it.
  17. Thanks for your vote, gagman! I too want to see the silent Ten Commandments on TCM.
  18. Keighly, WIlliam - Director of The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)
  19. "Pinky Shears" made me think of this MST3K sketch (just after the opening theme song) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbC863jZzQ8
  20. I love Seven Chances too, but it didn't fit my theme. That's how the game works. I'll be submitting my vote privately, and I hope everyone else will be too!
