  1. I would want Rob Zombie to see a list of cool - good - bad films that we the posters on this furum recommend he show on his new show.But in the end I wasn't taking the whole thing seriouly (nothing to get puffy about).

  2. You said at the beginning that...

    << I mean the movies we are looking for are bad in a good way. >>

     

    So the list should be about films that are so bad that they are good and fun to watch, right? Not films that are just bad - bad that one would never watch.

  3. I'm spotlighting this film because P.G. Wodehouse (one of my favorite writers) has his hands all over it. He was brought to Hollywood at the onset of sound and this is one of his works.

     

    Those Three French Girls (1930)

    Turner Classic Movies Jun 15 09:15am

     

    ** (Rated NR)

    Three attractive young women cause misadventures for visiting Americans. Dialogue by P.G. Wodehouse graces a story in his own vein.

     

    Cast: Fifi D'Orsay, Reginald Denny, Cliff Edwards.

    Director: Harry Beaumont.

     

    Writing credits:

    Frank Butler, Arthur Freed. Story by P.G. Wodehouse

  4. Panoramic Productions Company only made 12 films and out of those I submit these for everyone?s approval.

     

    Princess of the Nile (1954) They reused the sets of The Robe to make it look like a high budget film.

     

    The Siege at Red River (1954) A very bad western with Van Johnson, Richard Boone.

     

    The Rocket Man (1954) A little boy comes into possession of a ray gun that compels anyone caught in its beam to tell the truth.

  5. My suggestion at this point is to edit and clean-up the list to remove any of the films that ubiquitously show up on other channels. This way only films that rarely or never show up will be listed.

     

    These films are on other channels all the time:

     

    Howling II: Your Sister Is A Werewolf (1985)

    Jaws: The Revenge (1987)

    Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, The (2001)

    Myra Breckinridge (1970)

    Ned Kelly (1970)

    Reefer Madness (1936)

    Valley of the Dolls (1967)

    Zardoz (1974)

  6. I can imagine some really cool graphics that TCM could use to showcase this October Madness Extravaganza. On September 30 at midnight the TCM Logo comes up on the screen, a wolf howls, a woman screams, an insane mad creepy laughter begins as the Logo breaks like glass.

     

    We've picked their movies for them, we might as well do their Coming Attraction Promos for them too.

  7. Hey TCM Programmer, how about pre-empting your programming tonight and into the weekend to run with these flicks. I checked through the TCM schedule for the weekend and there is nothing on worth keeping anyway. Everything is repeats:

     

    Hook (1991)

    The Princess and the Pirate (1944) Yuk!

    Abbott and Costello Meet Captain Kid (1952) OK, but I'll pass on it.

    Divorce, Italian Style (1962) Seen-it.

    Stardust Memories (1990) Been on too many times.

     

    The rest is just repeats too boring to list so I won"t even do it.

  8. Here are two films to show that the UK can make Bad films too:

     

    Your Money or Your Wife (1960)

     

    Routine comedy about a married couple whose hopes of acquiring an instantaneous fortune are suddenly dashed.

     

    Bachelor of Hearts (1958)

     

    German scholar Wolf Hauser arrives for a year at Cambridge. Apart from his studies he tries to muck in with the very English non-academic goings-on while romancing pretty Girton-girl Ann.

     

    Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1968) (TV)

    This a great bad film by Jack Palance.

  9. That was what was so great about American Movie Classics back in the late 80's and early 90's. They played these wonderful BAD films all the time. At the time I couldn't get TCM and I didn't care because I thought all their movies where boring and dull.

  10. I have dial-up with Firefox 1.5.0.4 with FasterFox Page Loader and I have mine set so that Flash doesn't open. The grey circle with the f is in the center and if I want flash to open I click on the circle. All pages open quicker if flash doesn't load. The TCM Web Page uses too much Flash so I never allow Flash to open on the TCM Web Site.

  11. Has anyone ever gone crabbing and come back home with their load of crabs to steam? If you put them into a pot of cold water and turn the heat up slowly, they don't try to jump out of the pot. If you try to put them into a pot of boiling water they try to jump out and then you have a bunch of crabs crawling around on the floor. Cooking Humans is the same way, put them into a pot of cold water first and they won't jump out of the pot. Then season to taste.

     

    Twilight Zone: "To Serve Humans".

  12. I have to use 8x Discs in my Sony RDR-GX300 machine according to my owners manual. I bought Verbatim 16x Discs by mistake once and they worked fine so next time I got Fuji 16x Discs and my machine locked up on me (I had to unplug it and plug it back in to reset it again). Verbatim Discs must be more forgiving than Fuji Discs.

     

    According to what I have been reading it may be best to have a stand alone DVD Recorder and VCR instead of a combo because there are less things that can go bad on it. When using two stand alones, plug the VCR into Line-3 in the back of the DVD Recorder and when you want to copy a VHS tape just select Line-3 as the input on the DVD Recorder.

     

    I hope the firmware works for you and that is all that was wrong with your Panasonic.
