The Fallen Sparrow (1943)

One of my all time favorites. A great character study involving criminals and cops.
The Kansan, starring Albert (Dr. Cyclops) Dekker & Robt. (King Kong) Armstrong
Broadway To Cheyenne (1932): Another public domain western, where a cowboy detective goes up against big city thugs.
This movie also starred Marceline Day, who played "Lucille Balfour" in London After Midnight.

It's The Kirkwood Channel, from Kirkwood Community College here in Cedar Rapids, IA. They show lots of public domain movies, TV shows & cartoons. More than a few are horror/sci-fi. Cry of the Banshee should be on later tonight, & everyone's favorite, The Giant Claw will be on tomorrow evening.
This channel is one of the few reasons I still have cable, seriously.
- Pinero
One of my favorites. The life story of Miguel Pinero, poet, playwright of the award winning "Short Eyes" (a brutal prison play/film) and one of the founders of The Nuyorican Poets Cafe.
A highly recommended movie.
The Giant Claw, heh, that's a scary movie, one of my faves, never laughed so much ;D
The Breakfast Club(1985)..a John Hughes classic.
Scarecrow Of Romney Marsh! ;D
Spinout, w/Elvis Presley
CLERKS II(2005)

The Chamber-with Gene Hackman
Watched the last 30 min of Goodfellas today...one of my faves.
I just finished watching Mel Brook's comedy " High Anxiety".
Revenge of the Pink Panther, as we speak. Clouseau takes on the French Connection!
- Fast Times at Ridgemont High
One of my favorites. Love Phoebe Cates and Jennifer Jason Leigh. The best part is when Spicoli and Jefferson's brother wreck the car. Their exchange afterwards is an all time classic. Gotta love Damone's 5 point plan.
Well, since you ruled out just about everything in your original query ;)
Play Time on Criterion Blu!
The Goonies
Billy Madison
I think it was called "Between Heaven and Hell" World War II movie,starring Robert Wagner, about a snotty rich guy that gets sent to
a Japanese Island, and becomes a better man than he was before.
It was a good action movie
THE MONSTER SQUAD!
Womens Prison with Ida Lupino on TCM. Very good movie.

"My father is a TV repairman..he's got an awwwwwwesome set of tools" lol, not sure if thats it exactly but that is funny as hell. One of my faves and I think the top of the chain for 80's comedies of that sort.
I saw Inglorious Basterds that other day....absolutley loved it.
Road Trip Beer Pong
a slew of Tim Holt & Richard Martin 'B' Westerns! ;D
1408.
Caught the last half of Shane on TCM. Good movie BUT overrated. Has it's moments but is too much of a slow moving drama. The end where the little kid runs miles into town to tell Shane he was sorry for saying he hated him after slugging his pops with a gun was too far fetched.

Yeah, Jefferson's brother and Spicoli go back and forth about how Jefferson is going to kill them. lmao.
How about when they were talking about Bo Derek in Playboy? Funny stuff man.
Want to see Inglorious Basterds and Halloween II soon.
"The Couple" starring Martin Landau, set in WWII, about a Jewish Husband and Wife fleeing for Switzerland, after Nazis invade their home.
A real good movie
Inglorious Basterds(2009)..Quentin Tarantino does it again..nobody does weird but compelling scenes like him..
Steelyard Blues (1973)
still a favorite of mine...
Peter Boyle should have won an award for this one~ ;)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers. 1950's version.
The Last Time I Saw Paris, on TCM.

- Inglourious Basterds
Highly recommended for Tarantino fans. Brad Pitt was the man in this movie.
"Sniper's Ridge" 1961 Korean war movie, wasnt a good movie at all, I give it a 1 out of 5 stars.
The hippy musical ' HAIR '. One musical I do like.
Scarecrow Of Romney Marsh (long version) ;D
The last ones I watched were...
Athens Ga Inside/Out - 1980 Georgia music, hipster scene, especially noted for appearances by R.E.M. and the great folk artist Howard Finster.
Casablanca - My wife LOVEsssss Claude Rains, :-*, which is pretty cool as far as I'm concerned. It's hard to get tired of this one.
Bedknobs and Broomsticks - fantasy w/a smidgen of spooky effects. I got to thinkin' how this might have been influential on the Harry Potter series.
Michael
"They might be Giants", Comedy-Drama, starring George C. Scott as a Mental Patient, who believes he is Sherlock Holmes.
I liked the movie, until the ending, it could have ended better, but I still recommend this movie to anyone who hasnt seen it.
I give it 3 outta 5 stars ;D
The History Channel's documentary, "Hollywood's Greatest Villains" a friend gave me because she knew I liked Lugosi and the DVD had Lugosi on the cover, devoted maybe 10 seconds of screen time to him. The rest was about movie villains based on real baddies (horse thieves, serial killers, nasty ladies, the mob, sci fi villains, etc.) They did interview John Carpenter extensively. But it is kind of neat to realize that Bela was used as a draw to boost sales, even if he was not an important subject in the doc. I did feel cheated.
Braveheart Blu-Ray
The Prestige(2006)
Key Largo- starring Bogart, Robinson,Barrymore,Bacall
Truely a great, great, great movie, I give it 5 outta 5 stars 8)
Also, Jay"Tonto"Silverheels plays in it.
ED WOOD(1994): this has a wonderful cast going for it: Johnny Depp, Patricia Arquette, Bill Murray, Lisa Marie, Juliet Landau, Jeffrey Jones, Martin Landau, George"the Animal" Steele, etc..
Vantage Point with Dennis Quaid,Matt Fox,Forest Whittaker.
Interesting movie, and I liked it, but the flashbacks/different views reminded me of "Lost", and after the 4th time, I was getting a little
ticked,However I do give this movie 3.5 outta 5 stars, which is more than the critics gave it ;D
KILL BILL VOL.1(2002)
Che Part II (on the plane home)
The Public Enemy (1931)

Everlasting Knob Gobblers.
Oh, I'm sorry; you said non-porn. >:D
- Killing Zoe
Inherit the Wind with Spencer Tracy.
I saw it on Broadway last? year with Brian Dennehy and Christopher Plummer. Our seats were BEHIND the actors ON stage. We were in the 'jury box' and sat next to some of the players at times and I was so close I could see Christopher Plummer spit when he talked. Pretty awesome view.
- Richard Pryor Live on Sunset Strip
Grease (1978)
"Pretty Poison" with Anthony Perkins and Tuesday Weld, it was on TCM this weekend. It's almost like a sequel to "Psycho" but stands alone very well indeed. Worth catching for great performances from the leads and support from the likes of Beverly Garland and Clarice Blackburn.
March of the Wooden Soldiers

Cape Fear (DeNiro)

Cape Fear (DeNiro)
Oh, that could easily fit into the other movie thread, Sean. ;)
"Harold and Maude", which I've wanted to see for years, but never had. While I liked it, it wasn't up to the years of expectations I had. Also, being about halfway between Harold and Maude's ages, it made it a little different perspective. Without going into a long critique, I liked it, but not loved it. And I much prefer and reccomend "Brewster McCloud" as a better film.
Wayne's World
Stakeout On Dope Street (1958)
this is a great & horrible movie-
Picture Walley, Eddie & Lumpy finding a briefcase full of heroin &
thinking it'd be a good idea to sell it-
& not knowing how to go about it,
perhaps it'll be a good idea to get the old junkie
(who lives in a shack on the highway)
to help them- :o
Meanwhile-
the mob wants their junk back-
Amazingly cool dirty jazz soundtrack, though......
I wish it was out on CD~
James Whale's JOURNEY'S END.... for Remembrance Day..

The Italian Job
The real one: starring Michael Caine
Year One With Jack Black.
City of Fear (1959)
The Last Mile, an old public domain movie about death row inmates. Edward Van Sloan plays a rabbi.
Teenage Devil Dolls (1952)
There is zero dialog in this story of a good girl gone bad smoking the "evil" weed and moving up the ladder of drug abuse and dealing. It has an over dramatic musical score and is narrated by the detective who arrested her. Pretty good Juvi Delinquent/crime/exploitation flick. C:) 7 outta 10.

North by Northwest blu-ray
Role Models (unrated)

The Day After Tomorrow
Paul Blart: Mall Cop Pretty funny flick.
Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Gene Wilder, of course)
The entire third season of SpongeBob (plus special features) on three discs. Started yesterday.
Fast Food Nation - Awful movie. It was like they tried to do a dramatization of the book.
I enjoined the book much more.
The Wizard of Oz
One More River (1934) The only known cameo appearance of James Whale in one of his fillms, and the only known recording of his voice.
Elisabeth
"Saboteur" with Robert "love that Bob" Cummings, on TCM this past weekend. They had a full evening of Bob Cumming. Of interest to folks on this board was that Otto Kruger played the leader of the spy ring. The film is like an early version of "North by Northwest" in many ways. Reccomended.
Queen: We Will Rock You
Though I'm partial to their pre-The Game material, this is a great concert flick. Apparently it was released theatrically in parts of Canada & Western Europe.
Kiss Me Deadly
Scarface
The Reluctant Astronaut w/ Don Knotts. Not as good as The Ghost and Mr. Chicken. But still pretty good.
THE RED SHOES, with Moira Shearer, and LADY IN THE DEATH HOUSE, with Lionel Atwill. One always needs beauty, and occasionally, a little bit of "Pinky". ;)
Elisabeth
- Richard Pryor Live on the Sunset Strip
I never get tired of his stand up. This one showcased a more serious Pryor with a changed outlook on life.
Dutch With Ed O'Neil (Al Bundy) and it is funny! A great Thanksgiving movie!
A & C in Africa Screams.
CLIVE OF INDIA,1935 20th Cent. Fox....and yes..THAT Clive... a direct lineal descendant of the character played by Ronald Colman!
Haven't seen it for 25 years, but the print was perfect...clear as glass. OUR Clive plays a real "rotter" who can't stand Colman's character.
Keep an eye out for it.

Home Alone (1990)
Yesterday, I saw THE MORTAL STORM, with Margaret Sullavan...a brilliant actress and an early star at "Big U". I cried like a baby, as I always do with this film. I was particularly moved by Frank Morgan in a serious performance. Probably 99% of what we see him in is comedy...

The Departed(2006)
The Transporter(2002)
The Tournament 2009. Violent and almost comic book at times. The following synopsis from IMDB has a mild spoiler. If you like violent shoot em ups this is pretty good.
Every seven years a tournament takes place in an unsuspecting town where 30 of the world's deadliest killers battle to see who is best and for the ten million dollar cash prize. Returning champion Joshau Harlow (Ving Rhames) is back because he has been informed that one of this year's contestants is responsible for the death of his wife. Each contestant has a tracking marker surgically implanted inside them so that they (and the viewers) can track their opponents. A parkour style assassin (Sebastien Foucan from Casino Royale) cuts out his tracker and ditches it in a cup of coffee which is then drunk and swallowed by alcoholic Father Joseph Macavoy (Robert Carlyle). Chinese assassin Lai Lai Zen (Kelly Hu) realizes quickly that Joseph Macavoy is not a player and decides to keep him alive.

Even though I am a huge Bogart fan there are still some that do little to nothing for me. Sabrina for instance. I thought he was much too old for the role. Keep plugging away at ones you have not seen before returning to the ones you thought were so-so, Laura.
The Caine Mutiny I never had seen this classic before and I found it to be pretty good. To see Humphrey Bogart in a much different role then I have been used to seeing him in. Fred MacMurray & José Ferrer had great rolls as well. If you like old military movies. You'll like this one.

QuoteEven though I am a huge Bogart fan there are still some that do little to nothing for me. Sabrina for instance. I thought he was much too old for the role. Keep plugging away at ones you have not seen before returning to the ones you thought were so-so, Laura.
I LOVED Sabrina! The age difference didn't bother me, I guess because he had been hurt almost to the point of suicide. I guess that made him a little less of the hard businessman type. More vulnerable. I think Sabrina was really more of a chick-flick so I can understand why you wouldn't like it.
QuoteThe Caine Mutiny I never had seen this classic before and I found it to be pretty good. To see Humphrey Bogart in a much different role then I have been used to seeing him in.
I watched the Caine Mutiny yesterday. I really liked it. I like the different type of role, too. I think the book would be excellent. I'll have to look for it at the library. My hubby and I watched Casablanca. That's a real classic. Not a flaw to it. I'm always enchanted by it.
I'm still on my Bogart kick. Thankfully there's a lot to watch. I'm glad we have this movie forum so that I don't have to drive our poor Bogey (our brother monster) to death! I've got a set of 4 Bogey movies coming in the mail soon....
Hot Rod Girl. Another mid 50s film with a misleading title and all the "kids" look in their mid 20's.
Frank Gorshin Chuck Connors and Dabbs Greer in a small role. good "teen" drama.
T-Bird Gang. Yet another mid 50s crime/gang movies. I LUVS this stuff.
Tomorrow aside from football it's gonna be Reform School Girl (50s version) a total classic in my book.

I'm still on my Bogart kick. Thankfully there's a lot to watch. I'm glad we have this movie forum so that I don't have to drive our poor Bogey (our brother monster) to death! I've got a set of 4 Bogey movies coming in the mail soon....
Laura
If you have not already watched it then I think The Petrified Forest is a must have in any Bogey collection. It's one of those classic semi crime dramas that unfolds slowly but keeps you interested all the way thru.

Rock Star
Thank you, Wicked! I'll be looking for it! So many movies! I think I would like it. Here's the set I'm getting:
Bogie and Bacall - The Signature Collection (The Big Sleep / Dark Passage / Key Largo / To Have and Have Not)
OK, now that I have everybody bored to tears - I'll be watching "Lolita" in a few minutes.
I watched Lolita. That is just about the strangest movie I've seen. I can't decide whether I like it or not.
Saw "Rollerball" the other night with James Caan. It's OK could have been a lot better. If you just watch the action scenes those are the better parts of the movie.
My wife & I took the kids to see Alvin and the "Chipmunks: The Squeakquel". The Kids enjoyed it. So I guess we got our monies worth then.
I've seen a couple other movies but I can't remember right now. Damn I hate getting old.
Hi Coughcool!
We saw the Chipmunks yesterday with our nieces. They loved it. So did my hubby and he doesn't usually like kid movies.
Tommy Boy!
I just love Tommy Boy!
I just got through watching a remake of Psycho. It's starred Anne Heche and Vince Vaughn. The script seemed to be the exact same one and the same with everything else. I think the director must've said, "Do it like Leigh and Perkins but make it much worse". Even the blood looked like orange paint mixed with red paint. Not worth watching.

I watched that too. Don't forget William Macy as the detective. I'd say if this was commercial free and you hadn't seen it before it would be worth it. It was not near as menacing. The infamous shower scene was bad. She got stabbed several times yet you didn't see any blood on the knife and yea,no real comparison qualitywise to the classic original.
I agree, Wicked. Even the screech noises when she got stabbed were not as high pitched and they didn't go up my spine the way they are supposed to.
Also!
I got my Humphrey Bogart 4 DVD set. Here's the cover:
(http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g159/chattylms/BogieandBacall.jpg)
I had to put it up because I think it's very romantic.
You guys can tell the moderators if you're getting tired of me talking about this.
Watched "The Egg and I" yesterday on TCM, quite good, and the origin point for the Ma and Pa Kettle films that I loved as a kid.
"Its a Gift" last night, WC Fields at I think about his best. Full of great lines and bits, highly reccomended. :D :D :D :D
Michael
I should have watched "It's a Gift" last night. I haven't seen any WC Fields movies. Next time around.
I remember watching a Ma and Pa Kettle movie and the weather kicked up and we had a tornado warning. I was terrified. I was a little afraid of M & P K for awhile which makes no sense but I ended up liking them. I still don't like tornado warnings.

Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeaquel

RASPUTIN AND THE EMPRESS, with Ethel, John and Lionel Barrymore together. A real treasure.
Elisabeth 8) :)
Used Cars
Band of Brothers (episodes 1,2)
The Rough Riders. 1997 TNT TV blockbuster. You want a high action epic war movie that will have you pumpin your fist and yellin at the TV this is it. Highly recommended. I got this in the Sam Elliott triple movie box set for $13. Well worth it.
On the down side,Brian Keith who had a small part as president Wm. Mc Kinley commited suicide shortly after this due to terminal lung cancer and grieving over the recent suicide of his daughter.
Where The Wild Things Are
Beer League
"The Scarlet Empress" on TCM. I love this channel as it brings on stuff I've never seen before. This movie had extraordinary sets, it at times is like a Tim Burton movie from the pre code thirties. The demon, ogre and dark angel thrones and other chairs are amazing. Highly recommended. John Lodge who is killed off early in "Murders in the Zoo" is a great lead opposite Marlene Dietrich, and Edward Van Sloan has a nice bit in the first scenes. Just a beautiful and perhaps Gothic film.
I LOVE the SCARLET EMPRESS...a truly gorgeous film. I watched that one along with RASPUTIN AND THE EMPRESS...worthy of historical note because it is the only film appearance of all three Barrymores together. ABFAB!

Hi, Charp. I went with the family to Disney World in October and we dined at the France pavillion in EPCOT. They had Remy under a serving dome on a cart and he would be pushed around from table to table to talk with the customers. Very cute. My 5 year old thought it was neat and my 15 month old looked concerned ;D
Rambo.....
Stallone is like 60 years old running around in the jungle fighting a hundred Burmese soldiers with a compound bow. Unbelievably bad. I have to punch my buddy for even telling me about it.
Oh man, this is slowly evolving into a Ratatouille thread, Sean. I was not aware of the French pavillion having a Remy on site! I simply must force my family to eat there in May. We all go to Star Wars weekend every year, and when we end up in Epcot, everyone votes to eat in Japan. I usually go along with the decision, but this year I'm insisting on eating in France! Thanks for the info. The only thing I love more than monsters is Ratatouille, it's just a fantastic movie.
COVER GIRL with Gene Kelly and Rita Hayworth. Simply Divine!

I'm a bit of an Arch Hall Jr Fan. Yea I know he only made 6 movies but they are all memorable to various extent. My 2 faves being The Choppers and 1963's The Sadist.
# Deadwood '76 (1965) .... Billy May
# The Nasty Rabbit (1964) .... Britt Hunter
... aka Spies-a-Go-Go
# The Sadist (1963) .... Charles A. 'Charlie' Tibbs
... aka Profile of Terror (USA: TV title)

# Wild Guitar (1962) .... Bud Eagle
# Eegah (1962) .... Tom Nelson
... aka Eegah! (USA: poster title)
... aka Eegah! The Name Written in Blood
# The Choppers (1961) .... Jack 'Cruiser' Brya
Yes, Arch Hall, Jr. Rocks! I'm a Cash Flagg fan too.

"God's Little Acre" on TCM yesterday. Awesome cast, with Robert Ryan as the lead, Aldo Ray, Buddy Hackett, Jack Lord (and his hair), Vic Morrow, Fay Spain, Lance Fuller, introducing Tina Louise and Michael Landon as an albino. (I didn't make any of this up). Nice little southern melodrama, even without any real southerners as far as I could tell. :D
- The Book of Eli
Highly recommended. An original story and clever twists deliver a very cool movie, not a cliche filled wanna be Mad Max.

I never heard of it. Did Tina Louise look like Ginger? How did they makeup Michael Landon to be an albino? Did you he look good as an albino?
CABIN IN THE SKY, with the scrumptious Lena Horne. Also in the picture was Rex Ingram...who played "Da Lawd" in GREEN PASTURES, and the Genie in THIEF OF BAGHDAD. he played Lucifer, Jr. in "CABIN"

Elisabeth,
I saw that Cabin in the Sky was on TCM today. I didn't get to see it though.
The disaster movie 2012, it was decent enough though not overly impressive.

Hey. The film was in glorious black and white. Tina Louise did not look like Ginger Grant, but you can tell its her. She has a very sexy skin tight white dress in some scenes.
For Michael Landon, they made his hair and eyebrows star white, made up his skin as well. As it was b&w, I could not say about contact lenses, except perhaps. His body language was very good, and he held himself like "an outsider." It was the era when every 20 something was the next James Dean.
Sunday night I had free Starz preview, so I tried to watch something, anything, for free! I had seen most everything offered except a little movie called Eyes Wide Shut. Oh what a mistake! I do not understand anything I saw, I kept thinking something would wrap up and I would get it. I even went on IMDB to see what others had to say, but everything was over my head. Anyways, I watched it. Oh, wait, the subject was non-porn.
Inherit the Wind (1960) with Spencer Tracy, Fredrick March, Gene Kelly, Dick York, Harry Morgan, Claude Akins and Noah Berry, Jr.
The Road - This was more of a relationship movie between father & son during a post apocalypse time. Not as good as I had hoped.

Love it! Big fan of Witchiepoo and also Cass Elliot. You have to admit, Freddie the Flute may be the screen's greatest milquetoast, what a fraidy cat!
"Mission to Moscow" w/ Walter Huston, a rare WW2 era propaganda feature film to promote good relations with our new Ally, the Soviet Union. Your jaw will drop with all the cloying mutual admiration clicks, and the number of times "let's be frank' is used in a sentence. Perhaps the best part is, the reinvisionment of Joseph Stalin as a stern by well meaning dictator, as if he's now King Moonracer from Rudolph, talking like "Ambassador Davies, when you get back to Washington, please tell your President Roosevelt how my people of the Soviet Union so wish to help you and England fight against the fascism of Hitler and Mussolini." You almost expect him to say, "A Russian is never truly happy unless he's fighting for a good cause."

As some of you know, my wife and I take in the Best Picture Nominees each year. Though ten films in a month seemed like a bit too much, I got them in. Here are my ratings for the Academy Award Nominees for Best Picture, starting with my least favorite.:
10. Inglourious Basterds (Is their something clever that I am missing about misspelling a title of a movie that you cannot even say at the dinner table?)- More self-indulgent over the top violence from Tarantino. Yawn. He really needs to go away at this point.
9. Avatar- Weak story, weak acting, and the effects were over-hyped. Hopefully the Academy will not reward Cameron for this pattern of behavior. The only reason I put the movie Up ahead of it is because at least the later had 20 decent minutes.
8. Up- 20 minutes of charm followed by Pixar formula which is getting old with a new splash of "Hey, here's a great idea, lets put it in, but never explain how it came about." (See dog collar that gave dogs the ability to talk.)
7. District 9- At least it tried to be different. Had a Mad Max feel to it, but this type of approach is better left for, well, Mad Max. However, the exploding bodies did me in.
6. A Serious Man- Still not sure if I enjoyed it, but did not dislike it.
5. The Blind Side- Better than expected, but does not belong in an academy award list, as neither do any of the ones above.
4. The Hurt Locker- Interesting premise, but really lost its way about two thirds through in my opinion and the ending I believe was weak.
3. An Education- Enjoyed this one as well. Good acting and a story I enjoyed watching unfold. The early '60's setting in England was also a highlight as well and it was nice to see a film that did not reward infidelity.
2. Up in the Air- Interesting backdrop. Enjoyed this one. Clooney being Clooney, which is exactly what I wanted to see.
1. Precious- Brutal and depressing, but very well done on all accounts. The performances of Mo'Nique, as the mom, and Mariah Carrey (yes, the same), as Mrs. Weiss the social worker, were simply incredible. I usually loathe movies that involve teachers, as they either turn out to be unbelievable, or make excellent teachers look inadequate. This film, refreshingly, did neither.

I am a fan of these guys but prefer the Little Tough Guys/Dead End Kids/East side Kids eras. Many of the BB movies are pretty lame and IMO this one while it had it's moments was pretty bad. Would not want it in my collection. TCM is having a BB movie every Saturday morning this month.
Yeh...it wasnt that great... not like "Spooks run wild" or "Ghosts on the loose" or "Angels with dirty faces"

That was a good one,and I believe we were measnt to root for him,vile as his actions became.
I HOPE THEY SERVE BEER IN HELL - Not as funny as I'd hoped, can't say I'd recommend it to anyone.
INKHEART - Maybe too family-friendly and predictable for my taste, but still worth rewatching
Ladies And Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains
OLD DOGS - If you liked WILD HOGS, watch that one again and skip OLD DOGS entirely. It misuses Robin and gives too much of the spotlight to John.

Trip With the Teacher. 1975 . A few college age girls and their female teacher take a trip on a small bus out in the sticks and end up meeting 3 bikers when the bus breaks down. Two psychotic and one ends up being a good guy. Slightly grainy film, violence/nudity and a rape scene. Had that cross between the 70's Sha-la-la-la and bad porn music.

In Cold Blood(1967) R
Based on Truman Capote's nonfiction novel of the same name and filmed in the house where the real-life incident occurred, this chilling tale follows two drifters (Robert Blake and Scott Wilson) who allegedly murder a rich Kansas family and flee to Mexico. Nominated for four Oscars, this disturbing black-and-white movie paints a compassionate portrait of the Clutter family ... and their killers. John Forsythe also stars.
An EXCELLENT film. Probing, disturbing, memorable. Robert Blake was absolutely brilliant and Scott Wilson matched him scene for scene. Beautifully shot, well written, simply a must-see film. Available on Netflix streaming.

These two as a family yesterday:
Alice in Wonderland (1951)
(http://electrifries.ephereal.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Movie_alice_in_wonderland_flowers.png)
Probably my favorite animated feature from Disney or tied with Peter Pan. The movie is more a series of wonderfully animated vignettes, but they are beautifully done and the colors are spectacular. Much of the look can be credited to the great Disney concept artist, Mary Blair. She is most known for creating the look to the Small World ride.
also:
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
(http://hellcatmedia.com/Site/Stop%20Motion%20Home/6A0D50E4-5231-4AC3-BB86-2C13D988EEE5_files/empire_strikes_back_wallpaper4.jpg)
My favorite of the Star Wars run. What was interesting on this one is how different it looked on a blu-ray player and HD tv (we splurged this summer....the first tv we have bought during our 18 years of being married). Some of the settings and materials they used were definitely exposed as plastic or wood looking and this is only from a player that up-scaled the dvd. On an actually blu-ray disc (which I believe does not exist for this film) I wonder if this factor would be more pronounced?
The Hurt Locker

Easy Money
Revenge Of The Nerds
How to Steal a Million" w/Peter O'Toole & Audrey Hepburn

"Julius Caesar" 1953 with Marlon Brando as Marc Antony. Great cast, w/James Mason as Brutus, Jon Gielgud as Cassius, and filling out the roles with such as Edmund O'Brien, Debora Kerr, Greer Garson, George Macready, Michael Pate, Michael Ansara and I saw Alan Napier but he didn't seem to have any lines. Picked it up as a used laserdisc today.
Kelly's Heroes Clint Eastwood, Donald Sutherland, Don Rickles, Telly Savalas and friends infiltrate the German lines to steal several tons of Hitler's gold. Three Kings owes a lot to this movie!
The Gauntlet
The Battleship Potemkin
Targets (1968) R
Mild-mannered Bobby Thompson collects firearms and thinks murderous thoughts, which translate into action when he becomes a deadly sniper, picking off drivers on the L.A. freeway. Meanwhile, Byron Orlok (Boris Karloff), an aging horror-film star, plans his retirement. As fate would have it, their two worlds collide at the Reseda Drive-In, where Orlok is making his final public appearance. Writer-director Peter Bogdanovich's debut feature.
The very last film the great Karloff made in America (his last projects were Mexican, sadly). And a fitting send-off it is!! Terrific film!! Sarah Karloff herself said she loves this movie, and I heartily concur.

- The Karate Kid (2010)
We just signed my 6 year old daughter up for karate.
My wife was out teaching a class, so me and the girls were home watching 'Enter the Dragon'.
Says my daughter of Bruce Lee, whom she'd never seen before: 'He's good'. :)
The Outsiders (1983)
Over The Edge (1979)......This movie is so awesome. Highly Recommended. This is Matt Dillon's 1st movie role. He was 14 years old when he was in this. Great Movie about Teenage Rebellion.
Enter the Dragon has some great scenes. "The art of fighting without fighting".
A classic.
Sean, the new Karate Kid is surprising well done. Great nods to the original while adding new twists. Recommended family movie.
- Punisher War Zone
Surprisingly, I liked this Punisher movie. For once they stayed close to source material and Ray Stevenson is the best Frank Castle so far.
Yes the accents were lame and it's not perfect but overall a happy Punisher fan here.
Twister
Master Minds-Bowery boys......Sach is kidnapped by mad doctor,who wants to switch minds with Sach and his Monster Ape,Atlas (who is played by Glenn Strange).
Bottle Shock
"The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T", a marvelous print on TCM last night. Great kids film.
TCM and IFC are far and away my favorite cable channels.
- The Road
I like The Book of Eli better.
Stand By Me with Corey Feldman.
"1776", the musical, at the local "classic film" theater. A great deal of fun but enjoyable retelling of the writing of the Declaration of Independence.
Dark Shadows fans take note, four actors from the original series appear; Virginia Vestoff (Abigail Adams) who played Samantha Collin in 1840; David Ford (John Hancock) who played Sam Evans for several years; Emory Bass (Judge Wilson) who played "Mr Best", aka Death (1969) and Daniel Keyes (Josiah Bartlett/New Hampshire) who played The Caretaker (# 2)
The Darjeeling Limited
Pretty cool movie
- Armored (seemed like a Reservoir Dogs style film, OK at best, nothing that hasn't been done before)
- I Can Do Bad By Myself (my wife's pick...not bad though)

Any fans of the The Wire and The Shield will truly feel this gritty, uncompromising movie set in various places around DC: DC Jail, Capitol Hill, Cleveland Park, SE DC. There is nothing Hollywood about this movie, you feel DC, from the slang, locations to the extras. The movie deals with truth and responsibilty. Poet Saul Williams wrote and stars in this movie. One of my alltime favorites.

I agree! The movie also has our own UMA'er Daniel Roebuck. In which he played a awesome role
in the film.
The Anniversary (1968) Bette Davis
On the celebration of the anniversary of Mrs. Taggart, her three dominated sons come to her house for the party. Terry, Henry and Tom Taggart work in construction, in a business that belonged to their father and is presently managed by their manipulative mother. Tom brings his pregnant fiancée Shirley Blair to tell his mother that they will marry each other; Terry brings his wife Karen Taggart and they secretly intend to emigrate to Canada; and Henry is gay and loves to wear women's underwear. During the night, the mean Mrs. Taggart uses the most despicable means and tricks to get rid off Shirley and Terry and keep her sons close to her.
Cool, offbeat little flick. Nancy and I really enjoyed it, but then we love Miss Davis!!

Good Fellas
I've probably seen this movie 30 times. But I can't stop watching it.
For example, I got off of one job, went to the next job for a double shift for the second day in a row. I'm working on about 6 hours sleep over the course of 2 days. I get home and flip on the TV after 1AM and Goodfellas is on.
Do I go to bed, considering I have to be up AGAIN in 4 1/2 hours?? Nope. I watch the last half.

Yep, I love pretty much all Scorsese's films, except some of his later efforts. I liked the way he cast Joe Pesci again as a loveable homicidal maniac. If it ain't broke don't fix it! - you did get the 'you're a funny guy thing' didn't you? From the scene where Pesci scares the crap out of Ray Liotta?
Oh yeah! I forgot that!

This is ENGLAND
Hey Mars, This Is England is a pretty cool flick. Saw it about a year ago.
The last thing I watched was some Barney dvd with my granddaughter. A full length MOVIE!
'This is England' was filmed in my town. (Says a lot about the state of my town!) The young kid in the film, Tommy Turgoose, is a local lad who still lives here when he's not acting. Director Shane Meadows asked him if he would be an extra in the film but cast him as the lead after Tommy demanded a tenner (£10) to appear in the film, and his cheekiness was just what Meadows was looking for.

Boxing Day! 8) I've heard of it many times but for my own clarification, isn't it a British celebration about the putting down a rebellion to the Empire? Kind of like, 8) but not exactly that rebellion of the American Revolutionary War, but in the reverse of that war...!
I'm not sure of that but my wife told me it was when the servants exchanged gifts...boxes, hence the name.

A Western. Price appears to have more of a supporting role, but definitely commands the scenes which he's in. Nice little plot twists with good character arcs
Dirty Harry

Black Dynamite: a very funny spoof of 70s black exploitation films. Every cliche in the book is there - kung fu, militants, Viet Nam, the CIA, pimps, foxy mamas...if you ever enjoyed Dolemite, Shaft, Foxy Brown, this is the movie for you.
The Big Caper: Thought it would be a typical noir about a group of crooks knocking over a crackerbox bank in a small town while it holds the payroll. It was, but takes on an added dimension as the guy who initiated the job realizes that most of his crew is batcrap crazy.

"Evel Knievel" (1971). George Hamilton and his omnipresent tan slip into the red white and blue leathers and leap into our hearts as the King Of The Daredevils!! Cheezy?? Yes!! Historically accurate?? Hell no!! Entertaining?? You Betcha!!
I was an avid Evel watcher back in the 70s, catching him every chance I got on ABC's Wide World Of Sports, revving up my Evel Knievel action figure and bike, and of course building ramps and jumping everything in sight on my dark green, banana seat be-decked, sissy-bar sporting, playing cards in the spokes 1 speed bike.
I remember this flick when it first came out as a TV movie and haven't seen it since until a couple days ago. Simply Awesome!!
Favorite scene?? Evel just wiped out epically at Caesar's Palace, breaking every bone in his body, but he's screaming at the radiologist NOT to take any x-rays because they can't find the lead covering for his chest..............because he thinks that's too dangerous!! LOL!!

I watched the original True Grit last night. This was the first time I had seen it, although I have seen the sequel, Rooster Cogburn, a couple of times. It was enjoyable fare. Wayne was in fine form and the story was engaging. It was fun seeing so many well known actors in small roles, like Robert Duvall, Dennis Hopper, Strother Martin, and Jeff Corey. Glen Campbell seemed miscast but I suppose he was popular at the time. Have yet to see the new version.

In 1969, John Wayne was nominated for the Best Actor Oscar along with Richard Burton (
Anne of the Thousand Days), Dustin Hoffman & John Voight, (both for
Midnight Cowboy) and Peter O'Toole (
Goodbye, Mr. Chips). He had been nominated only once before (1949 for
Sands of Iwo Jima). It was his ONLY Oscar.
He had also been nominated for a Best Producer Oscar for
The Alamo (1960)
I always suspected the
True Grit Oscar was more of a lifetime achievement award and a reaction to all the nominations for
Midnight Cowboy, the only X-Rated movie to win an Academy Award.
BTW, Almost everyone under 40 that I work with were shocked and not pleasantly surprised to find out it was a
remake.

I believe that "The Shootest" was Wayne's best "Western" ever. I say western because it was set in the west at the turn of the 19th century. More of a "character" piece than anything else. We learn how terrific an actor Wayne was. Telling more of his thoughts and feelings with an upturned eye or a sidelong glance than with all the shoot'em up, Bang Bang's in all his other movies.
Very poignant considering that he was playing a coyboy, dieing of cancer while he was himself dieing of cancer. I don't believe he lived long enough to see the movie hit the theaters!

Caught Rio Bravo last week on Netflix. Just a fun film, what with both Dean Martin AND Ricky Nelson in it. Although I know it's cheezy, I love the part where the two of them sing together!
I agree about The Shootist. In fact, I think the whole cast was inspired. It was also James Stewart's last appearance. He did a voice job for an animated movie, but this was the last time he was on screen.
John Wayne did live to see the release of The Shootist in 1976. He was cancer free at the time he made the movie, albeit missing his entire left lung and several ribs. In 1979 he was found to have stomach cancer. At the time he died, he had been planning to do a movie titled Beau John for Ron Howard.

It was a bad case of influenza made worse by his having only one lung. After the cancer surgery, he had to rely on an oxygen tank even after minor exertions. The flu, being a respiratory illness nearly did him in.

Personally, I liked both movies! 8) The Last air Bender is a little "juvenile" but something the whole family can enjoy. :laugh: The key to liking "Inception" to me is simply understanding the concept of sleep-time ??? in that, 5 minutes = 5 hours on the second level, 5 minutes on the first level = 5 days in the 3rd level, etc.! ::) thrhrt
Naw, I'm wrong in saying I was confused by the movie.......I actually get what was going on, it just all swirled around too much.....we're suppose to feel for the injured Oriental.....who had the initial architect killed.....who has been shot and won't wake up but be dropped into limbo....which Leo will come save him from in his fortress where he has grown old while under guard......while hiring Leo to break into the mind vault of another guy so a large conglomerate will be broken up so that he (again the Oriental) can gain financial advantage......and that's only keeping track of the Oriental guy.....there's Leo's deterioration......his loss of family...... death of his wife......years long dream state with his deceased wife.....they grew old together......his drowning.......and on and on and on......too many levels, too many subplots and none of them that terribly interesting or smoothly connected........as I see it.

I'm with you, didn't care for Inception at all. My biggest problem was, that like most of Christopher Nolan's films, it just feels cold and sterile. I never connected with the DiCaprio character, or anyone else.
Last night I watched a documentary called "Waking Sleeping Beauty". It was about the resurgence of Disney animation in the late 80s-early 90s. Amazing success story -at one point, Disney execs were actually planning to get rid of the animation studios! Lots of footage and interviews of the folks involved, from the animators to Eisner, Katzenberg, and Roy Disney. A great film if you have any interest in Disney.

I don't think you'll be disappointed. The turnaround of the animation studios is pretty amazing. My only complaint -and this is a very minor one -is that they sort of glossed over the Pixar relationship. But this wasn't really about Pixar, it was about old school animation, and it's a fascinating story.
Yay!! I downloaded it from Itunes last night and we're going to watch it today :)
The Town--enjoyed it! Kinda had Kevin Smith feel to it, but then again, Ben (Affleck) is good friend with Kevin.
and Uncula, needless to say, I disagree who heartedly with your assessment of The Empire....as IMHO, it is the absolute best of the films. On the topic of Jar Jar...well, that's all I can say on that.

I predict an Support Actor Oscar to Bale, and possibly to Adams for this very real look into small town America, thru a snapshot of Lowell Massachusettes. Reminded me much of Harford Co MD, in terms of landscape, structures, people and mentalities.

Hey,
Yeah, definitely caught the Bruce Lee homage, as well as the use of the '60s logo and theme. It was amazing The Black Beauty was as close as it was to the '60s vehicle in outward appearance. BTW, the "Thor" and next "Pirates of the Carribean" previews were also in 3-D and looked pretty good.

I saw "Walt and El Grupo," about Disney and his people making a goodwill tour of South America in 1941. Crammed full of interviews with folks, mostly the children of the people involved, but in a few cases people who were still alive after all these years. Lots of great vintage footage of Disney and companions in Rio, Buenos Aires, and a number of other locations. It also includes many of the sketches and paintings the artists made on their visits, and some animation of Saludos Amigos, one of the films that resulted from the trip. Worth seeing if you are a Disney fan.
My father was from San Salvador, and he was a life long Disney fan. Every year we went to Disneyland, and his favorite attractions there were "Pirates of the Carribean", and the "Tiki Room". We had a 16 MM projector, and he'd often rent "Three Caballeros", and we'd watch it in the basement of his house. The basement had paintings from Disney's "Ferdinand the Bull" near the ceiling. When he repainted the basement, those paintings were not touched.

HH, thanks for sharing this. I'm always amazed how many people, from all over the world and all walks of life, are into Disney. It seems truly Universal. In the Walt and El Grupo film, you could really tell how much Walt Disney enjoyed meeting new people and exploring new cultures, and I think this is really evident even today when you see things like the World Showcase at Epcot.

I'm a tiki fan so I love seeing all the tiki stuff at both Disneyland and Disneyworld. I just read that they will be opening a tiki-themed restaurant at the Disneyland Hotel called Tangaroa Terrace! ;D
Awww- Cool!! I will have to get back to Disneyland soon! I've only been once because we only live about 7-8 hours from WDW- so Disneyland is a big treat!! My favorite part of Waking Sleeping Beauty was the scene where Howard Ashman was singing and acting out all the scenes from the Little Mermaid. It was so touching to see how talented and wonderful he was in that few minutes! That's when I choked up big time :) But it was a real tribute to his work with Disney.

Lately all I have been watching is 70's TV like episodes of The Rockford Files and Kojak. The last movie - almost shameful to say was police Academy 4 on Netflix streaming. I recently saw all seven again - last time was as a somewhat youthful teen in the 80's. Though they are pretty bad - something about them caught my funnybone and eye(the eye part was Leslie Easterbrook for sure!). Now the last movie I saw in the theatre was The King's Speech - it was as good as everyone says it is.
- The Godfather Part II
- The Godfather Part III
Appointmnet with Danger, a middling procedural with Alan Ladd. Interesting in that the two killers are played by Jack Webb and Harry Morgan, partnered before their Dragnet days.
Boardwalk Empire....absolutely loving this show!!

A STAR IS BORN, with Fredric March and Janet Gaynor (1937)
"E"
"Brotherhood Of The Bell" (1970) Glenn Ford, Dean Jagger. Made-for-TV fare about a man (Ford) who is part of a secret society of the rich and powerful who is forced to destroy an old friend for the good of the brotherhood. This leads him to a crisis of conscience and causes him to try to expose the sect to the media, which in turn causes the brothers to turn their considerable resources toward his destruction.
Jagger and Ford are outstanding, as is Will Geer. Yet more evidence of the creativity and talent assembled during 70s TV, and why that era has never been, and likely WILL never be, surpassed for its quality.
Moonshadow- We LOVED the movie! I was so touched by the reading of all the letters from the trip, and it was so cool that they had sooooo much film footage!! I have watched The Three Caballeros and Saludos Amigos over and over, so I was delighted by all the Jose Carioca sketches and how his character came about. I told my husband, during the Brazil part, that next time we have a fire outside in our fire bowl- I am getting my official Three Caballeros maracas out and I'm buying him some bongos and we are gonna free form like they were doing in the movie! :) I bought my maracas in 2005 and I won't let anyone touch them because I dont want the pictures of Donald or Jose to get scratched up! We bought the movie off Itunes, so I plan on watching it again! Moonshadow- you should suggest ALL the movies I watch! Very cool....and thanks again
Mike Liegh's 'Nuts In May' (for the hundredth time)
Teenage Gang Debs
A no-good Manhattan girl moves in on a Brooklyn gang. Using her obvious charms she gets the leader killed in a fight over her and then takes up with the victor and new head man. Then she starts pushing him to get out onto the streets to mix it with rival gangs.
This is a LOW budget cheesy ass Juvi film. Badly choreographed fight scenes,kids that look like they are pushing 30 and lots of kids just dancing
Teenage Strangler
A troubled teen with an undeserved criminal past is the suspect when young women start turning up around town dead and marked up with lipstick.
Now IMDB has this at 1.9 but I would give it a 3.5-4 just because it is so cheesy bad. The acting is stiff and it really looked like it was filmed with one of the early Kodak movie cameras out of the Sears catalog back then. The Hue changes from scene to scene and there are issues with the plot continuity.
Also in this package you get a TON of intermission jingles and ads as well as 2 Juvi-D scare shorts. Well worth owning if you are a fan of this genre.

Charlotte, I'm glad I was able to recommend another winner! ;) You're right, seeing the relatives reading the letters home was very special. It made me realize that letter writing is a lost art. I doubt 40 years from now anyone will be reading old emails! I was really struck by how the Disney people dove into the cultures of the various places they visited with such joy. Walt especially seemed to enjoy himself.
I just got "Walt: the man behind the myth" from Netflix. I'll let you know how it is!

Scarface (1983)
Dumb and Dumber (1994)
Watched "Dumb And Dumber" a few months ago. Just didn't find it funny any more. Either it's because I knew the jokes too well or I'm maturing. I pray to God it isn't the latter.
I saw Yogi Bear yesterday, since it had gone to the local cheapo theatre, and the film was pathetic. As a fan of the original series, on a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate this film WTF????

- Mean Streets (1973)
Scorcese's early street movie centered in NY's Little Italy. DeNiro, Keitel and others highlight some low level mob types running the streets. Recommended for fans of this genre.
Disclaimer: this movie is rough around the edges, meaning production wise. It's not the big budget Goodfellas/Casino feel, but that definitely adds the overall vibe of the movie.

llk- I love that movie sooooo much! I have seen TWBB- at least 15 times.
I've never seen TWWB. That's the fantastic thing about being a horror movie buff. You never run out of cool flicks to discover.
"Splendor In The Grass" sounds so NOT my cup of grog. Don't know what it's about, but just the title.............blech. Unless it's the new Cheech and Chong movie of course.
Showdown- western about two friends, one a sheriff and the other an outlaw...starring Rock Hudson,Dean Martin, and Susan Clark.
"Swamp Girl" - 1971 with Ferlin Husky. My new fav cult discovery. A bit like a cross between Charles B Pierce and Ed Wood films.

Murder on Flight 502(TV 1975) Ralph Bellamy,Sonny Bono,Fernando Lamas, George Maharis, Polly Bergen,Farrah Fawcet, Hugh O'Brian,Walter Pidgeon,Robert Stack,Brooke Adams, Danny Bonaduce ...
"Left in the lounge for first-class passengers, a letter warns of murders on Flight 502 -- and the warning is received a day early."
A cast of "B" list stars led by airline pilot Robert Stack flies into danger, murder, bad acting, rampant racial stereotyping, and polyester galore!!
Seriously, this movie reeked. Robert Stack is as subtle as a chainsaw. Dude.............cannot...........act. When Carrot-top Bonaduce upstages you, it's time to give up acting and start hosting some cheezy TV crud like "Unsolved Mysteries" (the first episode of THAT show should have presented the unsolved mystery of how Robert Stack ever made it in Hollywood).
You've heard of triple threats?? Those talented few who can sing, dance AND act?? Well we have a reverse triple double in this movie.........TWO dudes who cannot sing, dance, OR act. Danny Bonaduce and Sonny Bono. The movie might have had some redeeming value had the flying killer targeted these two wooden indians. Alas, they survived the flight. Happily, their careers did not.
Farrah Fawcett's hair and teeth make a cameo appearance attached to a stewardess who is smuggling dirty money out of the country.
Fernando Lamas plays...........Fernando Lamas. As usual. His acting repertoire shows all the versatility of a toilet plunger. It does one job. It does it well. But you don't want to stir your soup or frost a cake with it. Likewise, you don't want Fernando Lamas playing anyone except Fernando Lamas. The results would be truly crappy (no pun intended).
Walter Pigeon looks like Kharis in this movie he's so old and slow. Except not as lifelike. I'm pretty sure he died about halfway through filming and still completed the movie without anyone the wiser.
A 3rd rate "Whodunnit" with all the cliche's and none of the style that make the genre interesting. Contrived, badly written, cheaply shot and agonizingly tedious. 0 bananas. Not even artificial banana flavoring. Do yourself a favor and miss this flying turkey.

"Walt: The Man Behind the Myth" -2001
Excellent documentary on Walt Disney. Yes, it was produced by his family, but it's not 100% white-washed; they admit he could be a difficult man, moody even -and they discuss his nervous breakdown. But it was truly inspiring to hear about all his setbacks and his dogged persistence. He also seemed to be deeply in love with his wife all their lives and that was touching. Lots of nice home movies and rare footage. A must for Disney fans.

RHAPSODY IN BLUE, with Robert Alda
I'm sorry to say that the movie stank, the writing stank and with the exception of Oscar Levant, the acting stank.
(Robert Alda was ok...but not as good as he would become)
The music, however, was DIVINE. If this movie inspires one person to learn about the real George Gershwin....and really listen to his music, it makes up for all the rest.

THE SWIMMER (1968) starring Burt Lancaster - I really enjoyed this thought provoking (and rather sad) movie. The whole cast is excellent.
BULLITT (1968) starring Steve McQueen - A fantastic cop flick I hadn't seen in years!
I had a 68 fastback Mustang like the one in Bullitt. Some teenaged chick driving against traffic to get to a break in the median rammed right into me. This was in 1982. I got $1500. The car was never the same.
Damn! Imagine having that sucker NOW!!
Silver Imron paint with black Shelby stripes, black interior, GT wheels, 289 V-8. I still cry over that car.
I was telling some 20 year olds how awesome the car chase scene is in BULLITT - they were like, " Better than GONE IN 60 SECONDS? " I then had to explain that THAT was a remake itself! I finally gave up trying to explain.

The other night I watched a movie called MAN IN THE CHAIR which left me sobbing. And I don't sob easily. A teenager making/directing a movie for a school project decides to enlist the aid of an elderly drunk ex Hollywood Gaffer (Christopher Plummer), who is connected with a group of elderly assorted motion picture assistants. The kid decides to change his movie to being about the horrendous treatment in nursing homes...my Dad is still trying to recover enough from his "cardiac event with complications" to be in a nursing home ("rehab facility")...it hit me right between the eyes. I don't even like non-horror non-scifi-non-porn movies but I have to say this was the best movie I've seen in quite a while. Highly recommended.Man in the Chair official trailer 12_07 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR9juGOckUY#ws)
Packy, that kid's a good actor - he starred in another bittersweet movie from 2005 called ONE LAST THING.

Apocalypse Now (1979) -- a war classic - watched it on AMC
"127 Hours" (2010) - The true story of mountaineer Aron Ralston, who had to amputate his own arm when it got stuck under a boulder. It's frequently uncomfortable to watch, not only because of the graphic amputation, but also because of the deep frustration and fear the man goes through. But it's a testament to what a human being can do when they want to survive.

"Transcendent Man" -2009
Documentary about engineer and futurist Ray Kurzweil, who believes an event he terms "the Singularity" will occur in the next 30 years, which is the development of artificial intelligence and the merging of humanity with that intelligence. It's very thought-provoking stuff, particularly the consideration of the potential for immortality. However I came away from this feeling sorry for Kurzweil, whose primary motivations seem to be the fear of his own death, and the desire to bring his father back from the dead. I also felt his conception of the essence of what it is to be human to be far too focused on intellect and our ability to "calculate," with no real thought given to the aspects of being human that I think are far more important, such as our capacity to feel empathy and compassion for others. But I recommend this documentary if you are interested in subjects such as artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, longevity research, and just plain old human nature.

"The Killing Of John Lennon" (2006)
"Lifting dialogue directly from notorious assassin Mark David Chapman's real-life journal, director Andrew Piddington paints a chilling portrait of the man who infamously shot John Lennon outside his New York City apartment building in 1980. The film chronicles Chapman's trek from his home on the islands of Hawaii to Lennon's home on the island of Manhattan, where he made history by murdering a living legend."

Caesar and Cleopatra - 1945, starring Claude Rains and Vivien Leigh. Spotted in the film... Stewart Granger, Michael Rennie, and a very flamboyant turn by Ernest Thesinger.
Charlie Chan: The Secret Service (1944)

The Shadow: Behind the Mask (1946)
Not really the pulp Shadow (or the radio Shadow) but I enjoyed it--a lot of those poverty row programmers on netflix can be a fun 70 minutes.
Porky's II
Blow Out (1981)
"Murder by Decree' -1979. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson on the trail of Jack the Ripper. I thought both Christopher Plummer as Holmes and James Mason as Watson were excellent. A very solid film, although it drags a bit at points. Still worth seeing.
Cliffhanger (1993)
Death Warrant (1990)
Nowhere to Run (1993)
The Specialist (1994)
Assassins (1995)
Scott pilgrim vs. The world. It was different, kinda entertaining.
The Scarecrow Of Romney Marsh ! (1964)
This flick blew me away when I first saw it on "Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color" (in 3 parts)
I was fortunate enough to snag the (super limited) "Disney Treasures" DVD when it finally came
out a year or two ago-
Still love this movie! :)
SUCKER PUNCH. Sucked
- Full Metal Jacket
Haven't seen it in years, just as powerful.
The War at Home (1996) - Emilio Estevez and Martin Sheen were great in this. I liked it a lot. I am a fan of Emilio Estevez. Emilio also directed this film and he was good at it. He directs more than acts now and has a new Independent film about to be released.
Above the Law (1988) - An early Steven Seagal film which is decent. I really like those 80s and 90s action films and this one is good.
Ernest Goes to Jail (1990) - easily one of my favorite Ernest films, a really great one
Knowing
Don't know why I thought this was going to be a Sci-Fi flick...
(I thought I saw mention of PKD's 'Flow My Tears' in early reviews...)
Anyway it's not & is more along the lines of the Bourne films

Clerks. (1994)
The Naked Gun (1988)
Marlon Brando in The Wild One
"Targets" (1968) - one of Boris Karloff's last movies, and too bad it wasn't his last, because it is a terrific swan song. Boris plays Byron Orlock, legendary horror film star (sound familiar?) who is about to retire, claiming that his brand of horror isn't selling any more. In contrast to him is a young man, based on Charles Whitman, the University of Texas sniper. This all-American boy goes out and starts shooting people. The two are eventually brought together at a drive-in. I won't say much more in case folks here have not seen it, but it's a very intense film.
It's interesting watching Karloff essentially playing himself. It felt a lot like watching Mickey Rourke in "The Wrestler." Not that there's any similarity between these two men -I don't think Karloff was ever on the juice! ;) - but the fact that they are playing roles so close to the skin. Karloff is wonderful to watch in this, particularly at the end.
What's the last non-horror/non-scifi/non-Porn movie you watched today??
That made me laugh.
Last one I watched was ANVIL: The Story of ANVIL, the Canadian metal band.

American Experience: Roads To Memphis

Dangerously They Live (1941)

Not the best, but not bad for a watch-
Still cool to find another one to add to my (Nazi) '5th Column' flicks list.
"Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" 1939
Classic Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce fare. George Zucco is properly sinister as Holmes' arch-enemy, Prof. Moriarty, but the story left a little something to be desired. Still great fun and all in 80 minutes. Rathbone is just such an intense Holmes -my favorite certainly.

Welles is always interesting, just not always entertaining. I think there are two or three versions of Mr. Arkadin available, none "definitive."
"Across 110th Street" (1972) (Anthony Quinn,Yaphet Kotto,Anthony Franciosa)
"A trio of Harlem homeboys disguised as police knocks off a Mafia numbers house, pocketing $300,000 and gunning down a few cops in the process. It's up to a shifty white detective (Anthony Quinn) and his reluctant black partner (Yaphet Kotto) to nab the amateur crooks before sadistic mob enforcer Nick D'Salvio gets his hands on them. This unrelentingly violent action-thriller has become a cult favorite."
Pretty good movie and a VERY interesting time capsule. Many pimpadelic 70s fashions, lots of shooting, Harlem crime syndicate, Mafiosos, dirty racist cops, ghettos, liberal new breed cops, gritty New York 1970s urban decay,and Huggy Bear from "Starsky And Hutch" being castrated (thankfully, unlike today's movies, off-screen).

love all these~
"The Pearl of Death" (1944) -another Rathbone/Bruce Sherlock Holmes affair. The beginning is clever enough, with Holmes actually accidentally contributing to a master thief making off with the famous Borgia Pearl. To make amends, he must recover the Pearl. A ton of disguises in this one, as well as an appearance by Rondo Hatton as the Hoxton Creeper. The beginning and ending are good, the middle dragged a bit, but at 69 minutes, who can complain? Rathbone and Bruce are both top notch in this.

Exactly what it is!
"The Hound of the Baskervilles" (1939): The first Basil Rathbone -Nigel Bruce collaboration in their marvelous Sherlock Holmes series. This is an odd one, as Holmes himself disappears for a good chunk of the time, but Bruce carries on winningly as Dr. Watson. Both Lionel Atwill and John Carradine are also in the cast, which does a solid job. Modern audiences would likely not find the 'hound' menacing at all, and the supernatural aspect might have been played up more, but all in all, a satisfying thriller.

Watched this maybe a month ago after many years. A long forgotten fave 80's film.
7/10 skulls.
Watched "Fast Five" with a neighbor who brought it over. Didn't know it was a bootleg until the bloody thing nearly blew my speakers out during the opening car chase/gunfight! Told her NEVER to bring a bootleg into my place again.
1. I don't approve of it.
2. I don't want my speakers ruined.
Otherwise, the flick was so-so.
Supervixens (1975) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snwnrl5UzfE#)

I love the whole scene when Spicoli and Jefferson's brother are riding in his car. After they total the car...
"My brother's gonna s***,"
"At least I had good reflexes man"
"My brother's gonna kill us"
"Make up your mind dude, is he gonna s*** or is he gonna kill us"
"First he's gonna s***, then he's gonna kill us"

. One my favorite films too. Unfortunately, the dvd does not have any deleted or additional scenes. The Vh-1 t.v. version was good, but, also missing more scenes. The film has much,much more. There is a website dedicated to the preservation of Fast Times. Maybe eventually, the movie will be released as a directors cut?

Moguls & Movie Stars - A History of Hollywood (2010) - watched this on tcm, I don't know if you would consider this a tv show but it is a special which talks about and shows clips of tons of films over the years in order of decades like 1930s-1950s for example. It talks about actors and movie studios also. It is shown in hour long parts each. I really enjoyed this, especially the part where they show and talk about 1940s Hollywood and it's films. All parts are great, I highly recommend it. Each part talks about a certain decade, like for example one part is about 1950s films. It's awesome. It also explains and goes over how alot of the film distributions and studios were formed and shows the executives at work and shows the work space and people at work at the studios. Lots of directors talk about how they released films back in the day. Also shows theaters and drive-ins.
Faster Pussycat..............Kill, Kill, Vixen, Pink Flamingos( exploitation at it's finest)
Bright Lights, Big City (1988) - My favorite Michael J Fox film, the film tells of a writer and his alcohol/cocaine binge, the film is an underrated Fox film and one of his finest when it comes to acting

"The Scarlet Claw" (1944) - Rathbone and Bruce are back as Holmes and Watson in another fun romp. This one's a bit uneven; it starts off feeling like a Universal monster flick, complete with mysterious glowing ghost in the woods, and musical cues that I know I've heard in the monster films. Then it transitions into a more typical whodunit, although with some twists and turns. Rathbone is excellent as always.
Jackie Brown, Coffy
Well, I picked up the new blu-ray of Breakfast at Tiffany's; kind of a guilty pleasure. I'm a big fan of Henry Mancini's music and the movie isn't half bad. What other movie can boast Audrey Hepburn and Martin Balsam? Wow, I just had a momentary vision of Audrey Hepburn in Psycho! I also got the Wal-mart (sans the trinkets) version of Ben-Hur on blu-ray. I'm not all that big on costume epics but this has some nostalgia value (plus it's a high definition 8k scan). Wal-mart also had Deep Impact on BD for ten bucks, but there I go veering off the thread into sci-fi territory...

"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" (2011) - A disgraced journalist tries to solve a murder mystery, with the help of an anti-social female hacker. The female character was quite interesting, as she has a troubled past. The journalist, played by Daniel Craig, is just sort of there. There are some extremely brutal, hard to watch scenes so this is not for those who can't handle violence, particularly of a sexual nature. My husband and I had figured out the identity of the killer fairly early on but watching the main characters try to do so was still entertaining. It does feel overlong to me and the last part of the film seems unnecessary. But I'd give it a solid B.

Great movie!! One of my top ten.
Beverly Hills Vamp
A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas (2011)
- Boogie Nights
Love this movie.
Two episodes of the TV series Kung Fu: Blood of the Dragon parts 1 and 2. These were the first episodes of the third (and final) season. Fun to see guest stars like Patricia Neal (very evil here), Eddie Albert, his son, who was billed as 'Edward Albert,' and Season Hubley. The story involved the death of Caine's grandfather and had some kung fu assassins sent to capture or kill Caine. A little trippy at times, but what else would you expect from Kung Fu?
Gregory Peck inCaptain Horatio Hornblower
Three Days of the Condor
The Rum Diary :)
The Big Bird Cage
Big Doll House(1972)

I love this movie. The book is even better. I can watch it again and again. I love the conversations between the priest and Clooney's character.

- The Color of Money
all 3 Harald and Kumar movies. I loved Danny Trejo in the most recent one as Harald's bad ass father in law.
The Lorax~the kids really enjoyed it, I wasn't expecting much but found myself enjoying it as well. Will definitely be getting the dvd when it hits. It is heavy on the conservationism and environmentalism, which was Suess original intent anyways but also ands anti-corporationism as well.....which doesn't seem like a bad thing to me!

8 Million Ways to Die (1986)
Suddenly (1954) loved it!
very cool flick with Frank Sinatra as a hired hit man who's going to
assassinate the President in the small town of Suddenly Ca.
Filmed in the very cool looking '50s small town of Suddenly (Newhall, California).
One of the hoods in Suddenly was Paul Frees, the great voice behind many a sic-fi classic (not to mention Boris Badinov, etc.).

Pauly Shore is a Brute!!! Wheez the Juice!

Jury Duty (1995)
The Woman...what a waste of time! The best thing I can say about it is Carlee Baker deserves the award for "Best Porn Acting by a Non-Porn Actor", I don't know that there is such an award but she would definitely get it for her appearance in this. Anyone that really wants to subject themselves to this just read the plot synopsis and then watch the last 20min or so, nothing and I mean nothing happens that is remotely interesting before that point; Not only that but the whole point of even watching that much of it is merely for some practical f/x work. I'm also placing this in the non-horror because this wouldn't even qualify for exploitation...I'm not sure if they knew what they wanted it to be in the first place?!
Joe Dirt (2001)

"Play Misty For Me" (1971) Clint Eastwood
Scary Flick!
When I was in college, I worked a late nigh shift on the campus radio station, KWCR. One night, just about sign off, my cousin Ron (who also worked on the station) had his girlfriend call me on the request line.
In her best Evelyn voice, she said: "David, play Misty for me." :o
After a few seconds of silence, I stammered that I would try to find it, but were were a progressive rock station, and probably didn't have it.
She then said: "I want you to play Misty for me, or I'll get very upset, David."
Then I heard Ron giggling in the background. ;D
Still, I did not get much sleep when I got home that night . . .
My last movie?
Bringing Up Baby

Mr Blandings! One of Cary Grant's funniest movies. And everything was so plausible. I did not realize it until I bought and tried to fix up a house . . .Fortunately mine was younger and salvageable.
Have you read the book?
Its still in print after all these years.
Of course, now I know what my last movie I watched today will be. . .
Harry and Tonto (1974)
Kramer vs Kramer (1979)
That's My Boy (2012) - I just saw this today, I have to say it was really funny and awesome. It's one of the best Adam Sandler's movies in a long time. I also love the 1980s references in it such as the soundtrack, which features Van Halen, Def Leppard, KISS, Rush, etc. It also has references to tv shows such as ALF, Fantasy Island, and Diff'rent Strokes.
The Rocketeer
Chasing Amy (1997)
The Man Who Wasn't There
The two new Sherlock Holmes movies.
The Secret World of Arietty
Who's Afraid of Virgin Woolf? (1966)

the similiarities in taste are quite crazy the same !!! geesh !!
I love Cary Grant & Irene Dunne together in movies..
theres a movie called Penny Seranade, which is just amazingly good.
I love it .
have you seen it ?
Irene Dunne also starts in a movie that I love, called
I Remember Mama.. which is
kinda funny cuz that movie also stars Oskar Homolka, who is better known for his role Mr. Sardonicus ( and Barbara Bel Geddes is in both those films as well :) )
We could have an entire thread on Cary Grant/Irene Dunne movies -- not to mention William Powell/Myrna Loy movies. Now how to directly relate them to Universal Monsters . . . hmm. ???
My Favorite Wife is one of their best ever!
That courtroom sequence towards the end is brilliant! ;D
The remake, Move Over, Darling, AKA Something's Got to Give with James Garner and Doris Day is a pale copy. :-\
I saw Penny Seranade many years ago. It was good, and Grant deserved his Oscar nomination (He lost to Gary Cooper in Sargent York BTW) But it didn't appeal to me--pretty melodramatic. I'll check it out again sometime soon.
The last Non-etc movie I watched? The Big Store Whats not to like? Tony Martin and the Marx Brothers! Virginia O'Brien's version of "Rock-a-bye Baby" is so wonderfully demented!
The Dark Knight Rises
The Duchess and the Dirtwater Fox.......and I feel numb..and numb-er, for having watched it
What?
You didn't like El Schmucko?
Yeah it was a pretty dumb movie . . .
My Last?

Well, To be honest. It's more like Dark fairly tale story, dark fantasy stuff. It's actually not a horror film.
I just checked online, it's listed under Dark Fantasy, and sometimes ultimately listed under Weird Fiction.
In my opinion, it's not a horror film to me. It's a Dark Fantasy film.
However, you might be right that it shouldn't be listed in this forum since fantasy is kind of bit similar to Science Fiction, but it is missing the word "non-fantasy" in this forum's title.
Just wonderin'
It creeped me out like no other fantasy movie I ever saw.
It seemed more like horror to me.
But that's just me.
Point Break [1991] - Watched many times and IS always great

LOL, I can understand that. I still remember that surprising moment while me and other my college dorm friends watching it for the first time last year. After that bloody bottle to the face scene, I said "dude, give me that case, what it is rated?" and It turns out to be rated R. Because this is kind of movie that most unlikely to be made in USA, and I think that's why it was made as a Foreign film instead by the guy who did hollywood movies such as Blade II and mimic (I hadn't watch those movies yet).
When it comes to the fairly tales, many people think it as children's stories which is often true, but there was also some fairly tales created for adults about few hundred years ago too. Original fairly tales were very dark and often very scary, however it was heavy toned down by the today's standard to the point where many people call it childish stuff. some group (some book publisher and writers) toned them down and than Disney are the ones that toned it down even more farther and I really don't blamed them since they are meant to be made for families in the first place but I really feel that they shouldn't turn some of them into light hearted movies.
I can imaging myself getting punched in the face for giving dark original fairly tales to the children today since they don't want them to read those stories instead of the modern ones. They might view them as a hack versions without realizing that they are the originals.
Many dark original fairly tales were ultimately made to teach children many lessons on life in much more brutal way about couple hundred years ago.

I met her August of last year and she was very much alive. I haven't heard anything since that time saying she might have passed. I hope she is alive and well. I like the special features of the uncut version, but i don't like the porn stock footage that was added into the movie by the director.

I agree. There are two versions of the film. One has a red cover..With the title: THRILLER.
The other has a yellow cover. I think that may be the Uncut version?
It was definitely pointless to add SEX to a pretty cool film. But, B.A. Vibenius
probably added the stock to make more $$$. >:D

The red cover is the uncut version, which is the one I have. I want to get the other version as well so i can just see Christina in all of her glory (pun intended,but not really, but yes it was) without all of the stock footage. Yes Thriller is probably her best movie in my opinion. I dig revenge flicks. Zombie In Luv

The weird thing is, the version that isn't uncut seems to be less expensive. Okay, now that I think about, I guess it makes sense.

The Chinese Connection or Fist of Fury or The Big Boss [confusing title] [1971] - watched on Netflix, I want to watch the mandarin cut w/ the extreme blood and gore and the infamous saw in the face as well as circular saw deaths/ anyways beside that, it was an awesome Bruce Lee film, difficult to compare to Enter the Dragon [I consider overrated but still excellent and I'm a fan of John Saxon and Lee]
- basic plot follows an Ice factory which fronts as a drug smuggling business and Cheng must confront the leader of the syndicate - an excellent watch, lots of cool blood and gore, knife fights, and neat special FX and hand-to-hand combat, check it out

Big Doll House
Django (The "D" is silent) Unchained was worth the wait...wished I'd have seen that in theaters instead of the Evil Dead remake!! The apparent nod to Blazing Saddles (The discussion of the eye holes.), although amusing, seemed a little out of place with the rest of the film and there were a few scenes that reminded me of 1993's Posse (A film that I admit I guiltily enjoy.), though I think they were supposed to be homages to the blaxploitation genre! Also would have been to cool to see the planned use of the woman in the red bandana (Zoe Bell), as her "inconspicuous" camera time seems to stand out in an odd way during the film!

The Sandlot is one of the best films ever. It genuinely captured the youthful zeal, naivete and enthusiasm of any American kid in love with baseball as well as the "boys being boys" scenario that all pubescent lads played a part in.
The scenes where they experiment with chewing tobacco makes me roll with laughter to this day.

I think it's really cool that Joan and Cherie were on set and helped the girls a lot. Last year at Flashback Weekend Horror Convention Scout Taylor Compton said that Lita Ford didn't give her permission for her likeness to be used in the movie, but after that Lita and Scout became friends and that Lita is putting out her own movie and Scout will play her again.

I met Christina a couple of years ago. She is so sweet. It was cute how excited she got when the interviewer mentioned mushroom picking. lol

For being in her 60's she looks very good.

Foxes, awesome flick. The band Angel, alone, is worth seeing the movie again. Plus the giant KISS solo poster displayed in Randy Quaid's character house. Cheri Currie looked cool in the film.

Yeah, Foxes was great. It's a pretty good 'hang-out' movie. I'm a big fan of Jodie Foster as I have been watching a slew of her movies lately.

Best network TV show ever. Amazon.com had a special recently, and I was able to get the entire 12-year run of the original H 5-0 for only $140 delivered (284 episodes = only 50 cents each)!! I started by watching the 1968 2-hour pilot with Khigh Dhiegh as the great villain Wo Fat, then my all-time favorite episode "Over 50? Steal" with Hume Cronyn (Jessica Tandy's husband) as the very clever thief Lewis Avery Filer who plays catch-me-if-you-can games with 5-0. What made this series so great were the locations, the great variety of well-written stories, and dramatic use of unique musical cues. Book 'em Danno!!

Great show & good acting , I try to watch it every day on RTV ,
Amazon gives great deals on DVDs I lucked out and got the entire run of Man from Uncle in attache case box w/ extras for $39 last year
CBGB-Don't go in looking for historical accuracy and you'll have a good time with it, the film can hardly live up to the legend but still a decent effort.

Not bad for a modern day, post Pirates of the Caribbean, action/adventure flick and it's not bad for a modern day Saturday matinee-western but as a Lone Ranger film it doesn't hold up. Watch it once (or don't watch it at all) and then forget about it and go watch Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels as the real deal!
