Caustic line, that.

Hello Capt. Obvious!

Watching the ads I am amazed that the actor’s voices sound the same. Aren’t those “kids” 50 years old? LOL!!!

I am going to pay money to see this movie and I’m 60 years old. I hope this is a big hit and studios finally realize you don’t need scatological “humor” to entertain kids.

You know what I hear NYER there is speculation they working on script on sequel for this if turn out be successful I hear they get on fast track for sequel

[NYer]

I cannot tell you how happy these films make me ...

Ditto! The Best Years of our Lives, The More the Merrier, the Thin Man series, and I also enjoy the light hearted romance comedies with Doris Day and & James Garner. Anything Hitchcock. Thank goodness for TCM.

I own the 60s collection DVD and love it . Those were
the ones i liked best. I did not
get the 70s DVD because those shows had pacing that was all wrong . Too much busy stuff. Wish they had made a
Thanksgiving Show in the 60s instead of the 70s.
I may see the movie though.

I don’t know what TCM is but I will look for all the oldies on Netflix. There is something to be said about the depth of character and the plain fun of many of these shows. I am just enjoying laughing again. Here and in the rest of my life.

I don’t know what TCM is

Turner Classic Movies. It's on basic cable and satellite with no commercial interruptions. Here is a link to their official Web Site. Click on Schedule along the top bar. Select Full TCM schedule for today's listings. Click Expand next to any one movie to learn more about the film's director, cast and a short synopsis. There are also links to view trailers. On the bottom of the page, you can click Next Day to see what is scheduled for the next day.

Under Month Highlights, they provide information on the Star of the Month, along with information on upcoming themes like silent, sci-fi, cult, war, adventure, romance, comedy, etc. films. It's a veritable treasure trove of information on the film industry. Best of all, most of the films are introduced with a wealth of information on the director and film production. Enjoy!

Looks like I can watch it on my TV via computer for free. I will program it into my TV and give it a whirl. I sometimes feel like I should have come of age in the thirties, forties and fifties.

[Chickensoup]

I will go with you!

Almost time to pull out my Claymation DVDs

Rudolf the Red nsed Reindeer

Santa Clause.

Frosty the Snowman.

Am I corny or what?

[T-Bone Texan]

Heat Miser will always have a special place in my heart!

[Chickensoup]

Yes!

[NYer]

Am I corny or what?

Absolutely not! Christmas classics.

How about a morning dose of

Contrast Elmer Fudd, Sylvester, Porky Pig, Foghorn Leghorn, Yosemite Sam, Wile E Coyote and crew with the pc cartoons shown today. Sylvester never gave up his attempt to catch Tweety Bird and Wylie Coyote kept us constantly entertained with his contraptions intended to catch Road Runner. It was slapstick humor but the pc police have labeled them violent and taken them off the air.

I always enjoyed watching the early sitcoms - Amos and Andy, My Little Margie, Our Miss Brooks, the Honeymooners. All gone except for I Love Lucy.

Yesterday I came across Army traing cartoons by WBros. such as “Private Snafu”, Popeye anti-Axis cartoons “Mr Jap You’re a Sap” (Not WB but still entertaining. It was enjoyable but all are banned because of PC. Speedy Gonzales, Crusader Rabbit, etc.

[Chickensoup]

Love many of them.
