Hello,
Most of these comments have brought a wry smile , especially the ones about about Star Wars and Alien. However my most disturbing realisation was last week when I had to explain to someone 'what the Berlin Wall was.' How quickly history becomes forgotten...........

Hello,
If you're a fan of Polanski's Chinatown you will know Jerry Goldsmiths soundtrack. However it was a second choice. The original score was by Philip Lambro but Polanski opted for Goldsmith as he was allegedly not enamoured with Lambro's work. It has finally been released on a cd called...
Hello,
I have looked at the trailers and the 'making of' on the official website.

Hello,
I would have to go with The Shadow (Jerry Goldsmith) and a John Barry's score for the High Road to China an obscure gem but worth seeking out.

Hello,
Just saw this months EDGE gaming magazine and it has a preview of LA Noire.
Based in LA 1947 you are a detective and the graphics and design look incredible.

Hello,
I love the Phantom . I have picked up some stories in various comic stores and scans on the net. I have to say I enjoyed the film as well.
Moonstone is publishing the Phantom these days.

Hello,
I suppose people will have different opinions on WW2 reenactment. Is it too soon .........maybe or maybe not. When I was growing up I built all the usual model kits and read Commando comics, watched Where Eagles Dare etc but I was banned from building any Japanes aircraft or tanks due to...
Hello,

Hello,
That is a nice jacket. I would love more detail on how you sewed, thread sizes etc. Also is there a resource on the net that has patterns for vintage leather jackets.

Hello,
I would recommend 'The First Great Train Robbery' with Sean Connery and Donald Sutherland made in the mid 70s....a good romp.
You should also check out 'The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, an interesting take on the great detective.
Best Wishes,
Al
Hello,
I would love to see this as I am a huge fan of the pulp heroes and modern takes on it.......The Shadow, Rocketeer, Indy. However I have heard this before years ago when Arnold Schwartzenegger was linked to a Doc film.
Hopefully it will happen.
Best wishes,
Al
