will this wonderful assemblage be commenting on Hollywood's next evolutionary landmark....minions? yellow cgi pac-men in overalls?
-
bad news for these guys. I can't make it.

that arm with no body but a voice was an obvious giveaway and soupy came immediately to mind...except sales was funny and svengoolie is not. I wish me tv would get rid of him and his chicken prop and have the show hosted one week by the commander (USA) and the other week by Elvira, babe of the dark.

STURN!!!

Una O'Connor because they doan have The Invisible Man or Bride of Frankenstein.

What's the first thing Prof. Barnhardt said to Klaatu after seeing him again after many years? "Ren!" -

the kid who ratted on Klaatu to the zone 5 military guy... doan forget, he did receive a hardy "Thank you, son." -
my idea to honor Omar would be a Genghis khan double header... let tcm show Genghis Khan starring Sharif from 1965 followed by Duke in The Conqueror.
-
nothing that tcm hasn't shown before so why should I praise them? I will not. but I will continue to watch such fare whenever tcm sees fit to schedule it because that's just the kinda guy I be... tcm doesn't hafta thank me. that's what we old school hardcase trooper space cadets are here for. now doan forget. the invisible man tomorry nite on svengoolie.

It's a Don Knotts Edward J Montagne vehicle like The Reluctant Astronaut or Angel in my Pocket with Andy Griffith.

why is hot spell so rare? you can download it for free at veehd dot com. watch it and then tell me it shouldn't be shown on tcm. "I defy you!" -Phineas, Jason and the Argonauts -
tcm's entire film catalog is overplayed.

I shall thwart such an ignominious decomposition... I'll be cremated! -
I love the way the film opens with Fredric March, Dana Andrews and Harold Russell flying home somewhat cramped on that plane and the ensuing readjustment to civilian life but it is downright excruciating watching Andrews subjected to emotional cruelty by the callous tomato he's married to. ruins alotta the film for me. shoulda been some payback there.

Claude Rains as Jack Griffin is invisible and Me TV has got him. next week's svengoolie offering. imo this is James Whale's greatest film...and Una O'Connor is hilarious as an innkeeper's wife. a masterful blend of melodrama and comedy and a terrific film that time cannot diminish. such a film as this is far far beyond the capabilities of today's bankrupt of ideas cgi-dependent hollywood. so get ready for more juvenile summer crap like minions full time. if I had Ron Howard's ear I'd tell him to do a remake of marooned since he handled apollo 13 so well. seriously... the dregs responsible for 99% of today's hollywood output shoulda been writing for sesame street 46 years ago. hell, maybe some of them were.
