And speaking of Movies!, THE HUSTLER was also broadcast by them a couple of nights ago. Sepiatone

How did you manage to get Blankie into the theater? Must have been during the Winter when you could hide him/her inside your coat. So, does the cat like popcorn? or prefer Sno-caps over Milk duds....? Sepiatone

Heh. I've never considered Claude to be a "classic" horror star. He's only to my knowledge done two or three "horror" flicks, and one of them(THE INVISABLE MAN ) is one never thought of as a "horror" story. More "Sci-Fi" to me. Sepiatone

Same year my Mother was born. Happy birthday indeed. Sepiatone

You know, this is difficult since they've all done many great works. Hard to pare them all down to one pick each. Chaney Sr.--- I'll go along with THE UNKNOWN Lugosi-- DRACULA is still up there for me. KARLOFF-- His against type role in DEVIL'S ISLAND ('39) Lorre--- Toss up between his role in M and as Dr. Gogol in MAD LOVE('35) Chaney Jr.--- Sure. Hard to top THE WOLF MAN('41) Price--- DRAGONWYCK('46) Sepiatone

I've observed it this way.... The thinner my hair gets, the thicker my middle becomes. Sepiatone

Sorry you lost your long time friend. Personally, I hate when that happens. And at my age it happens too often to accept. And I at least would have hoped you'd have lost those dweebie Buddy Holly spec frames before your friend. (I finally lost my Buddy Holly frames in the early '70's) Sepiatone

Must've been a "thing" with Hale Jr. Saw an old ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW episode in which Hale Jr. played a farmer who came into Mayberry to find a wife, and often referred to Barney Fife as "little buddy". And not too long ago (but long enough to forget the show) as a guest on another old TV show where Hale Jr. too, called somebody "little buddy". Sepiatone

Yeah, I noticed that with JAMES and a couple other member's names. It wasn't that long ago that JAMESJAZZGUITAR all fit on one line. Sepiatone

Oh, YEAH! The GHOUL overdey! Used to catch him every Saturday night in the early '70's in the Detroit area. No cable there in those days though. That furry hat and sunglasses with one lens missing is forever etched in my brain! Sadly(and somehow oddly fitting) Sweed died April 1st(April Fool's Day) 2019 at age 70. Yeah. I miss the guy too.

Well, the first "real" date my second wife and I had shortly after we met was dinner and a movie. In our case, as we both worked at the same plant and in different parts of the same division, we went through the "getting to know you" part while at work. After the movie we went to a local Western bar she liked back in her "Urban Cowgirl" phase, had a few drinks and dances, and found a motel down the road a spell. So much for the "experts". So I guess that advice is good depending on what the relationship was of the two before a first date is agreed on. Sepiatone

Well, two of the three are still doing OK. Sepiatone

I'll pardon myself for chiming in too, but.... I sincerely doubt there'd be much positive response to this thread as I feel most of the make up of the people here, while having a great love of "classic" movies, really don't have anything in the way of "memorabilia" of Hollywood or classic Hollywood movies. Not saying their desire for such things isn't there. Just the lack of resources and availability aren't. Sepiatone

Yeah, but my Dad hated it when he'd ask, "What's on TV ?" And smart-azz me would answer, "A bowl of fake fruit and the rabbit ears." Sepiatone

I remember them. A few friends of mine worked there after high school. Then in the '80's piston "great" Bill Laimbeer bought it and ran it for a spell. That location was in neighboring Melvindale, MI. And yes... That "C" does resemble tat logo! Heh.... Just looks like a "C" to me. Sepiatone

I've heard all these arguments before. I do fear the possibility of less to no movie theaters. For one, I never could, nor do I care to know ANY idiot that would watch a first run movie on a phone, tablet or laptop. Maybe streaming to a good sized "smart" TV monitor might be a bit more acceptable. But to think there may be generations that totally miss out on the big silver screen movie going experience saddens me a bit. It also might mean the end of cute exchanges like---- When a grandnephew of ours was about four years old, he was going on about some movie he saw. His description didn't sound like any of the movies my sister in law would let him watch from her collection of children's movies, so she asked him, "When did you see that movie?" And his answer? "When Mommy and Daddy took me to the BIG TV!" Never before or since heard a movie theater described that way.

You can tell it's a good "horror" flick by the image of a scantily clad woman with long legs in the poster. Sepiatone

And to prove your point, you post a BLACK AND WHITE photo? Sepiatone

Tom who? One of those "c"s up there bring to my mind an old telephone dial. And another the image of a floor drain. IMHO, they really didn't need to change anything about the look. And some of the spots touting the "new look" make it seem to me that they're not clear whether they're trying to convince US that the change is good, or THEMSELVES. Sepiatone

Either way, If for some reason(like gun to my head?) I ever wound up watching one or the other, it would definitely have to be with the sound muted! Sepiatone

Yep. And too, how an actor "played a part" in one movie, but "had a role" in another. Sepiatone

Sorry we all had to deal with this, but nothing personal, I'm just glad it wasn't just me. But everything is copacetic today. Sepiatone

My cable service claims it's not them. But this morning, I hit the "guide" button on my cable's remote and got YESTERDAY'S line-up! And what's playing today(thanks to the channel's "what's next" feature between movies) is listed in the guide for tomorrow! Anybody else dealing with this issue? My cable service tells me they use info they get from each channel they carry as to the day's programming. And all the other channel listings are spot on. Sepiatone

Yeah, a likeable and oft seen character actor, even his slight appearances in THE HUSTLER were good. He will be missed. And maybe he did more for WINDEX than talking crows. Sepiatone

I didn't know there WAS a "good" Rollerball. Sepiatone
