A quote from Melvyn Douglas. Where is that film person... The one who knows everything Universal? Oh, phooey, I can't stand not remembering names!

You know she directed a lot of TV shows in the 60's.

I have to say my favorite film of hers is They Drive By Night. She most certainly should have won an Oscar for that role. She was amazing!!! Do you have her biography?

It's a famous quote from the movie.

Have a potato.

I adore Ida Lupino. She was terrific and one of the first woman directors.

I have to say that I am very disappointed that these series by Irwin Allen used the same monsters in all three or four shows. Lame. Just lame.

As for The Old Dark House. Lord only knows who smuggled the film out of Universal's vault to do a full time restoration. It is indeed one of the spookiest films I have ever seen.

Well, check it out sometime. MTM and DVD had some amazing dance routines, often playing the suburbanites. Often having parties at their home. It was supposed to be the happy family of the earlie 60's and boy oh boy, did they ever collapse when JFK was murdered. It simply devastated them all.

Would you like to see the Dick Van Dyke show? It was a milestone in early television.

Gee, Toppy, I figured yo to be around my age... wicked old.

Wait. You've never see Dick Van Dyke??? The Old Dark House??? Ack!!! Where have you been hiding, man? I.. uh oh... I have to pee. The Old Dark House 32. I can't believe it. I...

It was a terrible storm! The boat rocked and rocked. Up one wave and down another...

I always thought that Tweety was pure evil to Sylvester. "Aw, the putty tat's skin in pink under his fur." "Aw, the poor putty tat is turning green again." "What's the matter, Putty, don't you like the big teddy bear?"

Yes! Overture, hit the lights... I was thinking that the hosts would boggle down the show, but I was so happy to see that they didn't. I was even more surprised that I remembered the dialogue. Them's fightin' words! Yeah, them's fightin words! They had a myriad of Warner's characters. Road Runner and the Coyote, Tweety and Sylvester...

You've got that door closed again!

I love Road House. I was singing the song, "Set 'Em Up Joe" at work one day and a coworker said, "That sounds like a barroom song."

TCM did not feel the need to issue a warning about the insensitive portrayal of blind people prior to the movie, but that day is probably coming. Oh, come on. Really?

Well, that goodness somebody here mentioned this film, one of the most hilarious films on the planet.

This year's tribute stinks. I'm very disappointed. Go to MeTV if you want to see some of the television personalities that have passed away this year.

Watching The Thin Man series this morning. Take a lookeeloo at the actors. Every one of them has their own personality. That's one difference between today's movie stars. These days everybody looks alike, or so they seem to. You think we'll ever come across another actor like Ed Brophy? Or anyone else from the olden days?

I don't know what to say. I feel insulted. I don't go to the movies anymore. I have no idea who the latest and greatest actors of today are and I really don't care. I do like Johnny Depp as Ed Wood. I like Tom Hanks in That Thing You Do. Robert Downy Jr was great as Chaplin. But I find myself looking forward more so to an adventure with Ma and Pa Kettle than with any of the movies you've mentioned. Sorry. But that's just me.

My cousin over in Sweden says ABBA is still a most popular band.

Now you're talking my language.

Yes. Of course they would do that. Seeing her do promos on MeTv - I had no idea she was in her eighties. She looked wonderful. Vivacious still.
