Movies For Children
My two and a half year old loves "Mister Gunby" (Gumby) and Sky Captain. Perhaps Sky Captain has finally found its audience.- jake_fink

Indy IV (beware... spoiler pics)
LC and ToD both stunk. They were overlit, over designed and badly written. LC stunk most though because it had that opening sequence with River Phoenix doing his Harrison Ford scowl on a train ride full of rubber animals. Embarrassing and truly, unbearably awful. Clearly they thought the...- jake_fink

Indy IV (beware... spoiler pics)
No homework required There isn't any particular continuity to the films. They go back and forth in time and there isn't any real development of the character(s) from film to film - unless turning everyone into an idiot in Last Crusade qualifies as development.- jake_fink

George's hat
Yikes. The only clothing in the image that won't cause temporary blindness is the hat and the apron. -

The Phantom (1996)
Watch the first hour with the sound off Kind of boring, the pirate cove thing and the laserbeam skulls were just embarassing, but it looked good up to that point. Especially Catherine Zeta Jones as the mildly evil Valkyrie kind of character. Hummana hummana.- jake_fink

What kind of noir do you prefer?
Stop everything. Don't write another word about film noir until you've seen Lady from Shanghai. The phrase "a little target practice" will never sound the same again. (But then how often does a fella get to use the phrase "a little target practice"?) The Hitch Hiker is a great noir and takes...- jake_fink

Hat tricks
No hat tricks. But perhaps in General Attire and Accoutrements I'll reveal some of my pants tricks. ;) -
PETER LORRE as MR MOTO
The Moto series is great B movie stuff. I like them even more than the Charlie Chan films which were being produced simultaneously by the same studio.- jake_fink

Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow
Villains? There were villains in Sky Captain? Wasn't the whole thing just a shaggy dog story with an out-take of Laurence Olivier "acting" at the end as the "villain"?- jake_fink

Slowly moving away from vintage and on to Akubra exclusively.
Pictures? I've had my eye on the moonstone stylemaster for a few weeks. Did you get it from everything Australian? Is it featherweight? Cheers. -

What entertaining movies did poorly at the box office?
I didn't realize that Princess Bride or Memento did poorly at the box office. I thought one was a huge and the other a modest hit. Memento didn't have to do well to be successful since it cost relatively little to make. I don't think Wizard of Oz was really a failure either. Spinal Tap...- jake_fink

Classic Style Magazine #3
I was told by a friend who's dad was a cab driver and had "the knowledge" that the hackney cab was designed as a vehicle for all classes and situations, high enough for a gentleman to wear a top hat while seated and with a large enough boot (that's a trunk, my American friends) to fit a bale of hay.
