    What Was The Last Radio Program You Heard?

    The Adventures of Harry Nile. I'm a big fan. Partially because it's a locally-produced program from my region. I highly recommend it for fans of private detective stories from the 40s and 50s.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Gattaca. Slick and stylish, with a smart story.

    Indiana Jones V

    I think the guy who played the younger version of Ford's character in "Age of Adeline" should have made a whole career out of playing younger versions of Harrison Ford characters, including Han Solo and Indiana Jones.

    Indiana Jones V

    There should be a movie that treats archaeology in the same meticulous and methodical way that John Le Carre treats the world of espionage.

    The Man From UNCLE movie

    When I studied TV production in college, I found that stupid humor was the easiest format to do. So when I see a movie or TV show that is filled with it, I feel like it's kind of a lazy cop-out because they couldn't be bothered to put a little more work into something serious.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I'm about to watch the three-hour extended version of "Superman: The Movie" which was finally released on blu-ray a couple months ago.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Perhaps one of the Basil Rathborne movies that took place in the "modern day" (the 1940s).

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I've been watching the Fleischer Studios "Superman" cartoons from 1941-1942. Since they were originally exhibited theatrically, I guess they are okay to mention in a movie thread.

    The Man From UNCLE movie

    Yes, I just watched that animated episode a couple weeks ago! The mechanic had actually been an engineer for a prominent manufacturing company (or something), and unfortunately he lost his job and was pretty much blacklisted from the industry because of blowing the whistle on some safety...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Having watched The Petrified Forest about a month ago, I recently watched the other movies that make up the Warner Bros classic gangster movie "Volume 1" collection on blu-ray, in no particular order: The Public Enemy, Little Caesar, and White Heat. Little Caesar always struck me as kind of a...

    The Man From UNCLE movie

    I would include "The Green Hornet" movie with Seth Rogen in the category of comedic remake-dreck.

    Batman the Animated Series

    I hope they make prints available to order. I want the ones for "Gray Ghost" and "Mask of the Phantasm." :D

    You know you are getting old when:

    I think they are limiting themselves. Black and white photography and cinematography can be quite artistic and evocative. It has even been used to such effect within the last couple decades in period films like "The Artist" and "Good Night, and Good Luck." In fact, some of the more artistically...

    You know you are getting old when:

    Yep, that's the place. There has still been an issue of homelessness in the vicinity, despite the improvements and tourist draw.

    You know you are getting old when:

    Being in my mid-thirties and part of the first wave of the "millennial" generation, I would still be considered rather young in many circles. But apparently my vocabulary and phraseology must be heavily influenced by all the older movies, TV shows, radio dramas, and books that I've been...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    D.O.A., with Edmond O'Brien, for the millionth time or so. This is one movie I never get tired of. I wish there was a better-preserved film print somewhere out there. All the public domain DVD releases look pretty lousy. On the other hand, that does make the whole thing feel a little more...

    Roller Rinks

    I think the oldest roller rink in my general vicinity (that is, within 20 minutes drive) dates back to the 1970s; not my favorite era. Family night is fun, but a little too kid-oriented... whereas adult night is more comfortable but has music I really don't care for because of the explicit...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Petrified Forest, the movie that turned Bogie into a tough guy.

    What would you not be seen dead in?

    Even my dad, who was a kid in the sixties, comments on my "suit" when he sees me wearing a sport coat. :rolleyes:

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    "The Best of Everything," on gorgeous limited-edition blu-ray. I love this movie!
