Nooooooooo, really, you agree with ALL of what Mr. Coffee wrote? Hah, Mr. Coffee.
How very, very surprising, Mr. Therapy.
You are sooooooooo funny.
-
Oooooh, another dictator heard from.
My, so you are the arbiter of what is 'ridiculous', now are you?
My, thank you SO much Mr. Coffee, for being able to scoot back to JULY to pull up some of my words. How precious of you.
My, so your words are the final ones, are they?
You are soooooooooo funny.

No, I already had that one taped, and don't look at TCM at all, heidigunn, except whilst surfing.
But just for you, I'm going to find it and look through it for the dog.
I notice Ann Harding is in it....did you like her? She is my new favorite female actor.

SusannO, thank you for sharing a personal and painful situation with us all. Know that we are here for you.
Personal relationships are one of the more difficult experiences in life, along with child rearing, imo.
I have found something that has helped me, and it has come (how apropos) from a classic movie. When Edward G. Robinson said to Fred McMurray in Double Indemnity that he listened to the 'little man in his gut', I concurred and have never forgotten his advice.
So, listen to that 'little man' and do what is right for you.
All the best,

Hello, cinemabuff64!
I too am nostalgic about the soundtrack to The Graduate, but I also have not watched the movie again since it came out.
However, I am also not amenable to seeing it on the same TCM that shows me Warren William b/w beauties. Again, I nominate TCM to come up with a TCM-Crap station and they can program all the Rob Zombie and Mike Nichols and Cher and Osmond and Anime stuff there they want.
Let's have TCM, TCM Classic and TCM Lite, shall we?

OK, I bow to your opinion, sugarpuss. I don't like the music, no, and did not know it was Mr. Zombie's stuff. I won't be listening to it for the next month, but I am one of many.
Yes, I found it very violent and sexual, and the knife in the mouth was particularly graphic. But hey, if everyone is able to accept this as part of TCM, who am I to complain.
Have the amount of pre-codes gone up? OK, again, I'll take your word for it, since I don't trust the other TCM-sycophants.
Again, I really, really, REALLLLLY don't care, since I have a boatload of movies taped and can turn off TCM tomorrow, but I DO object to those slavishly defending TCM for their new direction. No, I didn't expect TCM to have Sinatra pimping for Zombie's movies, but my point is that TCM shouldn't have had Zombie on their channel to begin with. They could have a TCM spinoff entitled TCM-Crap, and include all the knives in the throats and Zombie crap music they want.
Thanks, sugarpuss, for a very decent post.

heidigunn, 'stagnant' was a silly choice of a word, since TCM was anything but stagnant before they decided to go off their nutter with whatever the hell it is that Rob Zombie is. Fortunately, I won't be tuning in to find out, but if this latest promo is any indication...shame on you, Raygun...I won't be missing much.
-
I think her comments (correct me if I'm wrong heidigunn) are directed at Mr. Ranger, who actually is trying to use 'change' as a way to describe what TCM is doing with this Rob Zombie creature.
He really has no good answer for what TCM is doing, so he's trying, ineffectually, to get in a 'zinger' at me.
-
tcmprogrammer -- even the Rob Zombie one?
-
Edward Scissorhands.
Shrek.
The Iron Giant.
Penny Serenade? Bwaaaaaaaaaaaah!!
-
Yes, this latest even has me curious.
Yo, tcmprogrammer, what IS the thought process behind these promos? I admit, I liked September's but October's is really just more of the same. I'm not sure what type of music this is, but even you have to admit, it IS more suited to MTV and Jackass than to TCM.
As I asked before, anyone STILL want to opine that TCM isn't changing?
P.S. Seriously...I just went back to listen to MUSE and that song kicks ****. What is with the new song? I don't give it a 5 or a 3 or even a 2. Come on, Raygun, I giveth and I taketh away. The song and the promo are fairly bad and repetitive. I expect better of you.

This sounds like a line from "The Manchurian Candidate"
Excellent, NortBanba!

LOL, not at all, moirafinnie6! I'm not Jewish, but I love Yiddish expressions. Yes, 'plotz' means that and to faint, in addition, I believe. You all remember 'verklempt' (overcome with emotion) from SNL? It's all those consonants that I love saying.
THANK you for the info on Beauty and the Boss. I hadn't gotten that far in the October scheduling and now I'm, well, verklempt!!

Uhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhh.
Did you all see Raygun's latest on the Rob Zombie stuff? MrBoynton, go to their site, the Rob Zombie promo is there.
It's good stuff, BUT no, no, no it's not in keeping with TCM (violence and sex galore) and those who did NOT like September's promo are NOT going to like this one.
Dang, I love Raygun. They ARE making big bucks with the whacko musicians out there, aren't they, I imagine?
dolores
P.S. No, the music is not a keeper, like MUSE was.
So, anyone still not of the opinion that TCM is changing? Hmmmmmmmm????????????
-
Sounds lovely. I'm curious, what size was she?
-
niprecode, is it made out of satin? My favorite dress in all b/w moviedom is still Constance Bennett's satin dolman-sleeved gown in Topper.
How nice that you have something of Harlow's. She was lovely, ahead of her time, and died too young.

Thank you, GM. Hope you don't mind, but I'm saving them to my h/d.
I think this was from Hollywood, the photographer stamped the picture. By the way, if you go ebay (and know how to buy from it), there is a dandy picture of Richard Barthelmess in auction...the price is currently only $39.99!
As to too young, well he started in films in 1922!
dolores
GM, if you have any such pictures of other hunks (hint: Sterling Hayden--no Warren you're still first) perhaps you can start a thread of male hunks? I hate co-opting your Garbo/Lamarr thread. Thank you again.

P.S. Oh, and you forgot to mention Skyscraper Souls, GM. He was lovely in that and the building (real or not, it was the sense of the building) was even lovelier.

Would you like to see it?
Silly boy!!
Yes, please!!!

Bless you, GarboManiac, those pictures are perfect. The man was lovely.
Funny on Nils. Then again, I DO have strange tastes, you must have noticed that by now!
Thanks again.

*sigh* isn't he just dreamy?

richardny4me, I was about to plotz, but I take it you didn't see this on TCM?
I don't have that one, and I want all of Warren William...all of him, I say!

Timex. Steve took a lickin', but he kept on tickin'.

Yup. Thanks to TCM awhile ago, I knew that Dix was a **** (and a good actor), and recorded all his films on that day.
AND want to see more Whistler films.
-
Really? Ewwwwwwwwww.
GM, do you have any pictures in your files of Warren William? Or other equally lovely men without makeup?
I'm getting tired of women-only pictures.

Gee, and here I promised myself to ignore Mr. Kettle Ranger.
Poor guy, doesn't know how to use the online Webster's to look up:

Must be the full moon or Rob Zombie or something.
