Now now, don't be "sad" here, Cid. You can still skim through these threads around here if ya want.

...There's nothing that says you have to read each and every post on this thread, and if it's not about a film that interests you...
Yes, actually there is, MissW.
It's right in Section-7 of the Rules of Conduct Bylaws, although of course, most people and such as yourself, don't seem to know this.
(...I had this added into it back around 2015, and when it seemed too many people were skimming over some of my postings around here, and EVEN the rare ones in which I wasn't trying to make some kind'a joke and was actually being serious and made a damn good point about something in it!)

Hmmm..."Black Friday". Oh yeah, good one.
Uh-huh, now THERE'S a movie song that I always thought deserved to be more popular and wondered why it didn't ever became a bigger hit for Steely Dan than it did!
I mean, they even work the word "kangaroos" into it by rhyming it with "socks and shoes", so what's not to love, right?! I mean, anytime you can work the word "kangaroos" into a song is always a good thing, right?!
(...oh wait...wrong thread...sorry...although ARE there any kangaroos mentioned at all in this Karloff/Lugosi flick?...I can't remember)

Great.
Now I'm gonna have to watch it to find out if Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels did get invited to the barbeque.
Thanks buddy.
Reminds me of that story about Clayton Moore that comedian Jay Thomas would tell every year on Letterman's Christmas shows.
(...it's on YouTube...and is funny as hell)

He brings a bunch of folks to his home, which is surrounded by water, just so he can say that one of them is a shape shifting ravenous carnivore. 😶
Yeah I'm thinking Gatsby didn't put a whole lot of thought into his endgame here.
Oh, I dunno, Ed.
If say, the guy also invited the Lone Ranger to this little soiree, he'd have a ready means at his disposal to off anyone who might be suffering from lycantropy, wouldn't ya say?

The Aftermath
1982. Steve Barkett, Lynne Marguiles. An astronaut battles mutant cannibals after returning from space to find earth ravaged by nuclear and biological war.
2001. Keira Knightley, Ned Wills. Post World War II, a British colonel and his wife are assigned to live in Hamburg during the post-war reconstruction, but tensions arise with the German who previously owned the house.
Oh, gosh. I just realized they're both post-war movies. Damn.
Yes slayton, and so in essence they COULD BE "more different" here then, now CAN'T they!
And so PLEASE try bein' a little more conscientious with your offerings in...in......

A Shriek in the Night (1933) A Scream in the Night (1935) A Cry in the Night (1956) Footsteps in the Night (1931)
Footsteps in the Dark (1941)
They are all DECENT movies in their own right but bear no great resemblance to each other and to remember which is which is often not easy.
So then none of 'em star Peter Sellers as Chief Inspector Clouseau, I take it, eh Sans?!

In that case, I assume that a comparison of these films would not be productive:

I Love You (1992)

I feel that any mention of the 1964 movie in conjunction with decent movies is quite inappropriate.

Here's one I would've thought everyone by now would be familiar with because it has become somewhat of a staple during Halloween celebrations over the years and similarly to how Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' has become.
And yet it still seems I run across a lot of people who aren't familiar with the following song which was featured in the 1986 comedy Back to School starring Rodney Dangerfield. It seems the recording was primarily only a mild hit out west at the time of its initial release and where Danny Elfman formed the L.A.-based band Oingo Boingo.

I see Peter Townsend more so than Aaron.
"Peter Townsend"? THIS guy???...

Oh wait! You probably meant "Pete Townshend " of The Who here, didn't ya James...

Nope, sorry, Pete's chin and jawline are a lot weaker than Peter Stomare's is/are. And don't be fooled here with the common receeding hairline either.
(...nope, I'm stickin' with my George Brent...doooh...I mean my Aaron Rodgers thing here, dude!)

Didn't Robert Wagner use Monroe for practice to prepare for Natalie?
I know I read this somewhere,,,,,,
Now why do I have a feeling that posting that gif of Bill Hader eating popcorn that Moe posted in another thread recently would now be perfectly placed here too????

And, I have to say that the aforementioned Peter Stomare here...

...is remindin' ME of what Green Bay Packers QB and recent Jeopardy! guest host Aaron Rodgers will look like in about 15 to 20 years from now...

I always thought that expression was a more figurative than a literal one. Since the devil is supposed to be a great
deceiver I don't think he could be relied upon for accurate information. To get honest answers to all these questions
one should probably head in the opposite direction, especially to one that has puzzled people for millennia--How much
wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Wait! Wasn't this age-old puzzlement once and for all definitively answered in a recent Geico commercial???
(...btw, good point about that "other dude"...word is he's always been one the best deceivers you'd ever have the misfortune to encounter)

You seem to have some sort of voice fetish. You must run up quite a bill from calling all those 900 numbers, eh?
LOL
Yes, and good guess here, Sepia.
In fact, and perhaps ironically here, I always ask to speak to this one girl named Marilyn!
But THIS "Marilyn" doesn't talk in that little breathless baby talk way, thank god.
(...nope she sounds a lot like Charlotte Rampling!...and btw, SHE always says I have a great voice TOO!!!)

Since I believe the case against Oswald is rock solid I wouldn't bother asking that question. Instead
I would want to know who Jack the Ripper was, what landfill Jimmy Hoffa is in and who killed
him and why, and then there are a number of famous unsolved Hollywood murder cases to ask about.
And what was the real reason or reasons for Pete Best getting kicked out of the Beatles.
Yeah, those are all good ones to ask too Vautrin, but I think I'd first ask why the expression isn't "Heels over Head" and when the other way around is pretty much the normal everyday and non-excited state of being for most people, and THEN I'd ask all those other questions of St. Peter.

After suffering a broken neck from a fall, he developed a drinking problem(to dull the pain) and after barely making it through the filming of the WISEGUYS reunion, he gave up acting for good. I have no idea what he does for income now.

He went into the online home decor business and word is he's making a pretty good living at it, Sepia.
Sure, while surfin' the net, don't tell me you've never come across..ahem...."Ken's Wahl Art .com"?!

Absolutely, Dargo, and some of 'em right off the physical production line in your proverbial backyard...
Before headquarters shifted to El Segundo, the following could be seen on the face of the toy giant's building from the 405 if I correctly recall, Dargo:
MATTEL TOYS
Right you are, NS. Here's a shot of the company's old building circa 1975 (from the look of the automobiles in its parking lot) and before most of their product manufacturing was sent offshore...

The above pic is to be found in the following link, and which was part of an article published in the local South Bay newpaper The Daily Breeze...
