    Indy IV (beware... spoiler pics)

    Here's more video; it shows the jacket. http://www.indianajones.com/community/news/indyarrives.html For someone who hated Last Crusade and has no intention of going to see this IJIV I sure am following the production. Weird.

    Rare Ghost Orchid found where I work

    Very cool. I passed this on to my brother who was very impressed.

    Blackadder

    I agree. Black Adder was the only time I ever liked Hugh Laurie, and he was brilliant in it.

    Film Noir Classics Vol 1 To Trade

    I have a brand new, sealed copy of the Warner Film Noir Collection Volume 1 that I'd be willing to trade for a comparable set that does not have to be new. So if you've got a set of dvds you're done with and haven't yet got the first of the Film Noir boxes, let me know via pm and we can trade...

    The flying scene from Out of Africa...

    Yep. Part of the appeal of film noir is all the old wet-street location footage - the roof scene in Killler's Kiss, the street scenes in Asphalt Jungle the crazy I-got-poison-in-me run through San Francisco in DOA. Maybe film is like retail - location location location. Anyway, Out of Africa...

    'BRAZIL' -- SPOILERS! SPOILERS!

    Sky Captain has a retro-future thing going, but it also has a Jude Law thing and a Gwyneth Paltrow thing and a nonesensical very boring script thing going too, so watch with caution (preferably drunk). It's no Brazil, true dat.

    The flying scene from Out of Africa...

    I do care. That's what makes it exciting to me - and Lawrence of Arabia was shot on location, so was Raiders of the Lost Ark. There is still something really exciting about looking at images you know to be REAL, even if the locations are dressed for a film. Film has moved from being a...

    R.I.P. Charles Lane

    Wow. He was much-interviewed by our beloved Saturday Night at the Movies program here in Ontario (on TVO). Obviously a great interview because a) he was still around to be interviewed long after many were not, and b) he was in so many movies and worked with so many poeple. 102 is a good long...

    Your TOP Bogart movie..?

    Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Not on the list.

    The flying scene from Out of Africa...

    Lame process shots and you-tube quality aside, that is still pure cinema. I love it all the more because it's all REAL, no cgi falls or mountains or flamingoes. The world and everything on it used to be a fascinating place - now it's just the tech and toys that matter. I blame Gladiator.

    Transformers... how about it?

    True dat. But somehow quaint and charming compared to the bombastic noise-fest of the Transformers trailer. I'll pass on the movie.

    News about Marlowe project

    More news. All bad as far as I'm conerned. First, they have Frank Miller set to direct the Clive Owen Marlowe. I like Clive Owen but Frank Miller is an idiot. http://film.guardian.co.uk/news/story/0,,2107287,00.html The television version sounds less promising with every press tidbit...

    Chinatown Death Cloud Peril

    I got this book for father's day. I love my wife and kid but I could have done without the book. Just awful. Overwritten, boring, long-winded, name-droppy, infantile. The famous authors could have been famous actors or famous coughdrop box models or not famous any-old-bodies since all they do is...

    Indy IV (beware... spoiler pics)

    I want to see Indy jammin' at the 5 Spot. I hope he plays his hep saxaphone. That was just too cool for school daddio.

    The beard

    I like it. You like a 30s era Trotskyist, anarchist or literati. Keep it for a while.
