blathering socially conscious dribble certainly does not make THEM saints with their mansions, swimming pools and WALLS. while the rest of America lives their lives, pays their taxes and raises their families these pathetic money-worshipping disconnects work full time imagining the winning of a gold statuette is the pinnacle of THEIR human condition which is laughable.

I did turn it back on and heard spike lee's acceptance speech where he blurts on about his own family geneology from mother Africa to how America was built emploring his fellow Hollywood elitists to do the right thing in 2020.. since when does he think they don't vote democrat? now on to the red carpet celebrating where they muse over poverty and the downtrodden while admiring their statuettes.

a complete mess. who's responsible? the advertisers or ABC? liberals in their constant relentless fanaticism to make movies and entertainment more socially conscious and cater to liberal politics has done this. happy now liberal Hollywood? you have made America sick.

but the problem is that those who do not like john wayne as a name of an airport are those who like to pontificate and lecture one half of the country about tolerance. removing Wayne's name would be petty and highlight liberal hypocrisy about tolerance. great actors like paul newman and henry fonda or jack lemmon are in no way diminished in my mind because they were liberals. the duke is entitled to some forebearance from those who have dedicated their lifetimes to preaching it to the rest of us quite one-sidedly from their rich 1% socal paradise.

figures. this is why you need old school TV space cadets for that special perspective in programming that you'll never gonna get from crime noir schtootzes. me, I can think of 2 great movies right off and not that beaten into the ground creature from the black lagoon either. supposedly better than it's sequel Revenge of the Creature which is bull. the 2nd movie has what the first one shoulda had. an exciting escape rampage story. the first was too bogged down with those seemingly endless underwater sequences which had the creature swimming up and down and all around the delectably leggy Julie Adams. I must admit the friction between Carlson and Denning is good drama but they shoulda moved on to the good stuff like with the 2nd film. now while Julie Adams wasn't a major star imo she rates a tribute especially given the number of time slackers inc. tcm have shown the creature from the black lagoon and it is easy. any space cadet automatically knows what two films to show… 1. the private war of major benson with a charming performance from miss Julie as a military school nurse and chuck heston to boot! and... and it is such an obvious choice... as far as I know Julie Adams' last contribution to the horror sci-fi genre... from 1975... 2. psychic killer along with jim hutton, aldo ray and paul burke.

something I have longed wondered about. in that movie the space capsule is named Ironman One. were there any copyright issues with marvel comics about the use of that name since it was also the name of that famous comic book character?

to be awarded during commercial time. it is sick, stupid and bleeped up. that is an important award just like best director. this is a direct result of an academy that has lost it's bearings and only now cares about one thing. catering to millennial demographic foul-ups. figures. and tcm has absolutely nothing to say. they remain absent in the face of the slow death of Hollywood filmmaking.

and Helen Mirren is hot as a sexy morgan le fay

lets see a musante tribute...the incident and the grissom gang.

surprise! I wasn't invited.

tcm tasks me. I SHOULD be SOTM. I'll chase it around the Antares maelstrom and around perdition's flame before I give it up!

the schtootz blew his chance 50 years ago with this knockout.

we need all the sam cades we can get these days.

a very good list with wayne and McQueen in 1st and 2nd spot. "when I want to know how to act tough, I just look at the Duke." -McQueen

Pee-yew! I'm a-gettin' outta here quick! gemme air!

a great premise... a young babe is exposed to irradiated nitrate dust from a reel and grows to 50 feet!

I tried to watch it once decades ago when it was on TV. pamela was cute like one of the petticoat junction babes.

he was probably very sorry for his behavior later on and I cannot believe Shirley the angelic creature that she was would not have forgiven him.

the yawning man should be a weapon of torture.

actually I have 2 VCRs and while the other one works it has no remote because I found it discarded in the trash therefore I can't set the timer or program the date and time.

it was one of the best thrillers of the early seventies like the taking of Pelham 1 2 3. and flying off to Algeria is sonny's idea. sal had his heart set on Wyoming.
