So much for originality
Think of it as unchanging. Continuity.

Yes, I got the allusion the moment I read your post. Comedy has rules. I'd like to think I'm familiar with most of them.
If I'm indefensible, no one should mind if I pick up that slack. I seem to do OK in that respect.
Spoken like a true... smart y pants.

I've often used words like "curate" and no nothing about no tweeting twitter. I'm a dinosaur, my badge of honor!
I used "untenable" because of it alluding to "unwatchable" though in essential content it would mean indefensible.

What on Earth...?
Under 50, huh?

There are a couple of definitions for that word. Whichever one you mean, I'll take it as a compliment.
You shouldn't.

Whatever that may be, a punch line tends to make it more interesting.
Oh, thanks!
Unwatchable, you are untenable.

Indeed.
I wonder... what am I supposed to think?

I watched THE EMPEROR JONES (1933) tonight for the first time. It is stunning!

pop open a cool Ensure and peel off those uncomfortable compression socks
... and what's most annoying is he's only 6 years younger than me...! Y'know me, me-that ol' ****.

You need Dramamine and a nap, and avoid TCM intros/outros for a week.
Of course, though, you're not actually dizzy. You just think you're dizzy. If you want to know how you really feel, check with slaytonf.
You all be funny. And mean.

I...I'm still dizzy...

I don't think he's on green, but that back and forth movement of this camera "slider" is beyond annoying.
I just saw it, all cracks aside, as Ben Mankiewicz introduced a PAUL ROBESON Documentary.
The sliding camera which is not unlike being off pitch at sea, is distracting, but it does give us a lovely shot of the tower of perfectly shaped logs inserted in a wall niche to supply the electric fireplace...

Yes, I'm a boomer. Yes, there's nothing cool about me. And Ben is right, I don't like change. But that's only because it's been my experience that most change isn't really necessary or helpful. They already had a great product, with great brand appeal. Now, I dunno what they're trying to be, or to whom.
I can relate. I am perplexed. I am grateful though I missed Ben in front of a green screen on a rolling ship. Sheesh.

Actually, Orson Welles discovered Bernard Herrmann when he created the Mercury Theatre on the Air in 1937. It produced some of the most extraordinary radio to ever hit the airwaves. Welles’s direction and acting, Bernard Herrmann’s visionary scores and the likes of Joseph Cotten and Agnes Moorehead in supporting roles, combined to produce electrifying renditions of established classics. In 1941, Welles went to Hollywood with this extraordinary group to produce his masterpiece, Citizen Kane. That was Herrmann's first film score. And before Newman collaborated with Herrmann to create the much-overlooked but incredibly haunting score for The Egyptian, Herrmann had already attracted the attention of Alfred Hitchcock.
I'm sure you're right, but I'm sure I had read somewhere that ALFRED NEWMAN had a hand in getting BERNARD HERRMANN employed at FOX...
I read this at Wiki today:
"Music historian Robert R. Faulkner is of the opinion that had Newman not been music director at Twentieth Century Fox, composers such as Bernard Herrmann, Alex North, and David Raksin, all of whose music was somewhat radical, might never have had such major careers in Hollywood."
-
ALFRED NEWMAN was a monumental film composer and arranger. He discovered BERNARD HERRMANN.

As has been discussed a lot lately, forward looking films are now dated.

That I can relate to. There is also an auto-censor on this forum...
There is no "brouhaha", SEPIATONE, merely having fun with another member. Go read another thread that bore you, m'dear.
