NipkowDisc Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 isn't the night of the 14th of April when Titanic sunk? I wanna see A Night to Remember the best motion picture of the titanic disaster ever made. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceA Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I could do with never seeing another movie on the subject ever again. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NipkowDisc Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 okay, it's the early morning of the 15th but tcm has no titanic films scheduled. I hate the one with Barbara stanwyck and Clifton webb as the titanic sinking ain't no bleeping soap opera. A Night To Remember is exactly what a motion picture about the sinking of the Titanic should be. boy, are these guys slackers. that's why space cadets like me oughta be programming for this channel. we know how to do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would certainly be interesting if you had to deal with people complaining about your schedules. Let's try a little empathy, mate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be the best week in TCM programming history. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if he throws in some Titanic movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NipkowDisc Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 you would see Hot Spell and Attila produced by dino de as in laurentis and starring Anthony quinn and Sophia loren! why does tcm ignore that? the incident tony musante's best film and maybe tcm is a little afraid politically correct-wise to show it because of some of the harsh real life language. to some a searing film because of the mid-1960s racial tensions. some of the k. Gordon murray Mexican horror imports have terrific sets and cinematography like curse of the crying woman. tcm slackness has greatly diminished their phony boasts of cinema excellence. I knew that when among other things they have shown themselves too cheap to get the BFI cut of the restored Hammer's Dracula. you doan show proper homage to a guy like Christopher Lee with empty words uttered by schtootzes like mankiewicz. you do it by procuring the hard stuff.

yanceycravat Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 TCM's 25th Anniversary comes along... well... only once... I'm sure Titanic will air again sometime soon but this April 14th is reserved (rightfully so) for TCM's 25th. Yancey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Hi, NipkowDisc. Just a guess --- TCM has probably aired ANTR in honor of Titanic's April anniversary at some time in the past (2012 was the 100th anniversary, so possibly then?), but they probably can't arrange to do this every year.

True. Word is TCM's financial status lately is pretty much in a, ahem, "sink or swim" mode presently.
