  1. I wish fred woulda hit it off better with the green ghost's femme fatale.
  2. yeah, I grabbed the 1929,35 and 47 versions. the 35 and 47 versions look like they have the best visual quality.
  3. in a few days tcm is going to be showing several versions of this old mystery none of which I will be able to enjoy no longer having tcm.
  4. you know, the invaders is kinda like the Fugitive of TV science fiction.
  5. I always watch it, a great great film. based on Ray Bradbury short story 'the foghorn'. the rhedosaurus deserves some credit for swallowing cecil kellaway in the bathysphere. later on a good episode of lost in space and I always watch the invaders. Roy Thinnes deserves a new shot at playing David Vincent again in some update of the series. bleep that 1995 sheet with Elizabeth Pena. do it right and do it with Roy!... "the invaders, alien beings from a dying planet. their destination: the earth. their purpose: to make it their world. David Vincent has seen them... for him it began one lost night on a lonely country road looking for a shortcut that he never found. it began with a closed deserted diner and a man too long without sleep to continue his journey... it began with the landing of a craft from another Galaxy. now David Vincent knows that the invaders are here, that they have taken human form. somehow he must convince a disbelieving world that the nightmare has already begun!"
  6. Rosalind Russell acts throughout the movie like it is all about her. whatta obnoxious harridan. "my film! mine! mine! mine!" and she's pretty obnoxious as auntie mame too.
  7. grab & burn. that's the way to do it. like the outer limits I control all that I see and hear on my portable DVD player. "well, maybe it's better that way." -jack Hawkins, land of the pharoahs
  8. she's pretty hot too in the bathtub in splendor in the grass.
  9. compared to James Dean in Giant marlon is perfectly understandable in all of his films.
  10. no complaints about pretty natalie but Rosalind Russell as her mother is enough to send a funeral up an alley.
  11. they're running Gypsy this month on movies! whatta horrible film. rosalind russell at her most obnoxious. she is so obnoxious in this movie she makes rosemary the schoolteacher look like greer garson. there's this one scene where someone insults her and karl malden who plays some schtootz named herbie (he wants to mary her!) comes to her defense to defend her honor and virtue. afterwards russell stomps over to this poor deluded wretch, wraps her arms around his head and delivers one great big rough brutal smooch and this was supposed to charm the audience??? the guy is a mental case. why not marry a nest of hornets. oh, last not movies! showed Robin and the seven hoods. I actually watched it. some of the most lame musical numbers I ever sat through. you got this one number with frank, bing and dean singing about class. awful! I'd rather sit through russ tamblyn and the yawning man ten times rather than that again. femme fatale a lovely Barbara rush puts the screws to them and they wind up closing the film as sidewalk santy clauses. bing crosby wasn't too bad with his orphanage do-badder routine. one of the kids is manuel padilla jr. who would go on to play jai on tarzan.
  12. vic morrow also was good in the 1975 tv-movie the night that panicked America with Eileen brennan as his wife but tcm can't air it because it's tv fare.
  13. vic morrow as saunders IS Combat!. the man made that series work. whenever I think of the loss of morrow I think of it as a great loss to underrated acting.
  14. I'm waiting for a xmas movie with Gollum as tiny tim.
  15. johnny, the one and only Rocco, prefers pompano and champagne but tonite for me tunafish on rye with coke.
