I'm back from a short vacation! and ready to go!

How were things on Ceti Alpha V Scotty? Or were you stuck in the Transporter Buffer again?

How were things on Ceti Alpha V Scotty?

Peaceful! and no insects wanting to wrap themselves around your cortex to control your every movement or speech :)

I did get to finish watching Sliders seasons 4 and 5, man what a stinker season 5 was! 4 was not much better either. Hope your weekend was a nice and peaceful one as well?

The real Ceti Alpha V, or Ceti Alpha VI which was incredulously missing it seems from every star chart in the galaxy.

V, yeah I think VI is gone now, pitty, they had great Golf Courses too.

The lakes were wonderful too! you just had to watch for the undertow!!

The garden spots left much to be desired though.

Yes, that snake in the grass can be a real pain! nothing but a little patience and a gofer can take care of it.

I just hated the screaming....KHAN! KHAN!

I'm back to watching MEN INTO SPACE. If you ain't seen the series, it was real science fiction, what was thought of when man/woman explored the Moon, Mars, and other space bodies, and a wheel space station. Good FX, and good stories, not a lot of action, but, enjoyable.

I have to admit I never heard of this series before! of course I was only 2 years old when it came on, but I will have to check it out. thanks my friend :)

Scott

Here is a odd story about how I found out about the series. I love music, and on an Neil Norman CD, he had the theme to the series, and it sounded so dramatic, so I looked it up online. I like space, so I bought the DVDs from ebay, back when you could buy burned disc of many series. It was not what I expected, but, I sure do like it. Also, there is a book out about the series. I did see episodes on Youtube.

It figures I would be a day late and a dollar short! The book is still available on amazon and I found a web site that sells the series for $30.00 on DVD, not to bad. I still have to finish watching a few more TV shows and a couple movies, so maybe by next month I can order this series.

Scott

I just finished watching 1951's Thing From Another World. The monster is scary, not gross, and I really like the banter between the character, more real to me.
It was the colorized version, not as good color as could have been, but, very watchable.

P.S. I got in the mail, some of the seeds, and plan to grow an army!http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/evillaugh.gif

Great! another army that wants to take over the world and control our every thought! now where did I leave that can of DDT? ;)

That movie is still a good one! there is just something about those 1950's movies that attracts us to still watch them? even thou we have all seen them a hundred times before!! what ever it is I like it :)

Good old Ted Turner, taking all these classic's and putting color to them! it just does not work for me, I enjoy the b&w original better.

Scott

I like the colored versions. I prefer the colorized King Kong over Peter Jackson's version. There is only one King Kong.

We watched movies where you imagined the horror and terror, then they started showing the grossness, and well, I got grossed, not scared.

Question, what would you prefer, an army of Things, or Triffids? What ever you prefer, I will send your way.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/064.gif

I am an "Originalist" I prefer my movies the way they were filmed (either b&w or color) wide screen, remakes are just "Lets redo this movie and improve on it" and 99 percent of the time they miss the mark by a 1000 feet.

A army of Things! they are easier to kill, all one needs is electricity :)

Scott

....unless they take out the Grid first!

You...you...Originalist! I understand, the original is better, but, I like color, so if it is available colorized, I will get it, if not, I watch it in B&W. All that matters, is the story and acting.

Damn! I did not think of that...okay, guess I need to start buying generators then :p


For me the colorized job they do just does not look right! and makes the movie look hoke! but that is just me. Oh the story and acting has to be there, I agree. I saw the first colorized movie by TNT after Ted Tuner bought the MGM vault and it stunk! I gave the DVD to one of my cousins and bought the b&w version, it just looked better! maybe because I wear glass's? I just know for me it looks better in b&w.

Scott

As a model builder, I need color to add extra touches to the model the instructions ALWAY leave off. But, most spacecrafts from the 50's were silver, so B&W don't matter.
I agree colorized can be hokey. In the Thing, the face colors are really off.

I love Sci-Fi, so I watch so many different DVDs, I am now watching Filmation's Flash Gordon. It is my second favorite behind Buster Crabbe's serials. And, on September 22, it will be it's 35th Anniversary. I still prefer the Filmation movie version, and it was Ted Cassidy's last role, even tho it was his voice, for the Lion Man.

I don't like colourised films. I like Laurel and Hardy (don't shoot me, I just do, loved them as a kid and still do now) and when the remastered them for DVD they also did a colourised version of them as well, and I didn't like them. Colour never looks right on black and white because of the grey tones from the original means there is a lack of contrast. I'm with Scotty here, I prefer the B/W originals.

Sure, just gang up on me!;) You are right, the colors don't look right. When I watch colorized I can tell the colors are off, like how the old Analog TV was like when the signal was bad. I still like the B&W shows, because of the stories. I have been downloading episodes of the 50's US series Space Patrol, in B&W. Some are washed out, but, the stories and action still have me entertained.

I like the short clips of colorized Fireball XL5, and would like to see more, just not worth buying another set to see more.

Yes, I know, I've downloaded that collection years ago (the complete 21-disc box set was available as a torrent, complete video_ts folders with complete menus, which I still have on one of my externals!). The color versions are just a gimmick, and not necessary at all - Laurel & Hardy work best in b&w, visually speaking, the colors don't add anything, except reducing the contrast, as you pointed out already.

And yes, I'm a big fan of L&H, like you, and have found many more movies of them not part of the 21disc collection, so my collection now is pretty much complete. Granted, the best of their collaborative work can be found on the box set, but there's still more of them, which might be of interest to true fans.

(PCM, if you are interested in some of the more "obscure" performances of them, feel free to p.m. me ;) )

Laurel and Hardy were great! along with The Three Stooges, and my all time favorite W.C. Fields! I did see one of the colorized version of there shorts (the three stooges) and it was absolutely horrible! at lest for me the color made it not funny at all and hurt my eyes. Now why colorizing it made it not funny, is beyond me, I have seen this episode so many times, I know it backwards and forwards, but seeing it in color does something to the eyes and brain that your mind is pulled away from the comedy routine and you forget what is happening in the foreground and are drawn to the background! at lest that is what it feels like for for me.

I like to build models from my favorite movies and TV series, if no model, if I can, I will scratch build it.

By the way guys, I have managed to locate the soundtrack from Starships Invasion if anyone is interested. It's 320kbs, but I'm not sure if it's a re-code, unless the original recording was not that good.

I am! I lost it on the dead hard drive.

No problem AZ, I'll PM you a link :)

Thanks!

Did you get the Link AZSneed?

I got the link, just not the music yet. Two tries so far, I will try again.

Sorry I have not been here!

A life long friend of my mothers needed my help. Her husband of 69 years pasted away last week and I have been helping her and all the arrangements and then the funeral it self (which was yesterday). Now I have over 600 emails to go through and a ton of RSS feeds, plus my own kids that have been trying to see me...it's tough being so popular LOL but we do what we have to do :)

my eyes are not that great anymore too, so that's strike two for me! I am near sighted in my right eye, far sighted in my left and have astigmatism in both! I'm screwed three ways to sunday.

I had a genuine Twilight Zone/Outer Limits moment, at least to me. I got a phone call, and with my fuzzy vision I thought it was my Brother calling me, so I answered it. It was a scam artist wanting to lower my credit card interest. I hung up. Then I put my glasses on, and read the Caller ID, the call was from me, from my home phone. It was weird that I would call, with a womans voice, me, from my phone I was using to get the call. Explain this to me! Am I finally over the edge, or will Rod Sterling step out and explain it to me?

Rod's had his last cigarette, but you never know!

It's called phone spoofing! the person on the other end used your home number to hide her number! your not losing it just yet AZ! it has been used on me as well, the down side is if she gets your account number, then your in deep kimchi! if you have (and everyone does) a password for your phone company I would call and have it changed. I love caller ID (one of the best things the phone company's gave us) check to see if you can block your outgoing phone number! if you can us it.

I'm not into colorized movies. Oh man, I turned on the tv last Christmas to see A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim. Which coincidentally was also a 1951 flick. It was in colour! "What the F***!!!" I exclaimed as I almost fell off my chair. It was awful. It lost it's crispness and depth. I simply can't imagine what The Thing from Another World would look like in colour.


I wouldn't mind a packet of those seeds though! Excellent.

I didn't see color TV until 1980, and I had to buy it. So, if in color or colorized, I watch, if in B&W, I still watch, but, I prefer in living color, or close to it.

We have mentioned cheesy movies and series, my last one watched, was the serial, 1950 ATOM MAN VS. SUPERMAN. Everytime Superman flies, even with a rescued person, it is a cartoon. They also did it in 1948 SUPERMAN, both with Kirk Alyn. It is very distracting to see real/cartoon. Even the flying saucer in the serial a was cartoon. Shazam, and Batman were all real, no cartoons for the action shots. CHEESY!

Evil laugh eh?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7edeOEuXdMU


I've never heard of Atom Man vs Superman. Makes me wonder how many of these shows were made and subsequently faded into obscurity. Talking cheesy, I caught a bit of a film today called The Day Time Ended (1979). Man, it was awful. Apparently a guy's solar panel equipped house goes back in time, but I didn't stick around to find out exactly what happened. I switched off when a small grey-type alien materialised and started doing a dance routine.

Yea, that is the right laugh.

The Day Time Ended, with Jim Davis. was weird and a bit cheezy. But, the box set I bought called it CLASSIC.

I watched a real classic, Dracula with Christopher Lee, and Peter Cushing. Two great actors. I like the death scene of Dracula, now that was classic. Got to love Hammer films.

I was watching syfy (what a awful name) last night and watched "Big Ass Spider" I got about 30 minutes into this movie and shut it off! Good Lord what a terrible, cheesy ass movie!! Sci-Fi has turned into a joke.

Now Dracula (with Christopher Lee and Peter Cuching) is a real classic! Hell all the Hammer Dracula movies (with the two of them) are all classic's as far as I'm concerned.

I never heard of Atom Man vs Superman either! I'm sure there were hundreds made back in the forties and fifties, which means we have not missed much.

Scott

I have to agree, Scotty and AZSneed. The Hammer collobaration between Lee and Cushing started with The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), I believe, followed by Dracula in 1958! Those two were great, but most of the follow-up movies were great, too, even if each movie series (Frankenstein and Dracula) didn't see them together again (with one exception: Dracula A. D. 1972). But both actors, for me at last, were born for those two roles!

My favourite Dr. Who was Peter Cushing. I saw him in an episode of the New Avengers the other day, where he played a doctor who was charged with reviving Hitler from a coma. More cheesy story-lines!

Christopher Lee is a step-cousin of Ian Fleming. However, he played the role of the bad guy in The Man with the Golden Gun.

Well, another anniversary is next weekend. I plan to watch the first episode, is glorious Black and White, as broadcast in 1964.

That's a show that switched from glorious b&w to colour half way through, like a few others. Hey, how about turning up the colour on those b&w shows? Or does it not work that way? :)

If you give me a grant, I will research it, and come up with an app to turn up the colour on b&w shows.:)

Totally agree my friend on all counts!

When Christopher Lee is gone, it real be truly an end of a great era! his roll of Dracula scared the crap out of me when I was a kid, those bloodshot eyes! and he had no lines, just used his facial expressions and body movement! what actor today can do what he did?...None I say.

A rumor I am starting, for the 50th of TOS, a new series...ST:The Geriatrics Years with all of the original cast. Since the actor for Scotty and McCoy are not available, they will be CGI, and to piss off Shatner, they will look as they did in TOS. They are thinking of doing a different hair style (rug) for Shatner every episode, so there will be some action.

Since the actor for Scotty and McCoy are not available, they will be CGI, and to piss off Shatner, they will look as they did in TOS. They are thinking of doing a different hair style (rug) for Shatner every episode, so there will be some action.

LOL yep I'm getting to be the old fart around here! Oh I think Star Wars in Black and White would have been perfect :p

For me then one I remember shown the most was the giant creature from the black lagoon look a like! when I saw the episode where this monster garbed the front of the seaview and began turning it side to side, I gave up watching the show LOOOOL


I can see Shatner fanatically searching to find his new episode rug every week hehehehehe

Scott

Every time I watch that episode with the giant creature from the black lagoon look a like rocking the Seaview side to side, I want to do that with my 39 inch model. I like that creature. Where is your inner child? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/064.gif

I have an 8mm B&W shortened film of Star Wars. Like watching a movie serial from the 30's.....you remember watching them in the theater?http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/old.gif

I guess my inner child ran away ;)

A friend that lived around the block from me use to buy those short films all the time! we had a blast watching them over and over on the weekends, he even got some of the old serials! not quit the same, without sound, but we enjoyed them none the less. I remember someone I know had that 8mm film of star wars! I think I saw it once, it sure was the fastest 2 hour movie in less then 3 minutes I ever saw :)

Now what a minute you young whippersnapper! if I could raise my cane and smack you on the head...just once! (hmmmm if I remember right, AZ is the same age I am!) look who is calling the cattle black, you old fart!! :)

Scott

I will be the same age as you on Sunday. I turned 6 years old on the day VTTBOTS debuted. Plus, I share B'day with Walter Koenig and Clayton Moore.

I just heard Richard Kiel Dead at 74 Today! what a shame :( he lived up in Yosemite Lakes (a gated community) about 40 minutes from where I live! apparently he was in the one of the local hospitals here in town. My dad met him once when my dad went to Coarsegold (a small mountain town) to have lunch with a old friend of his! Mr. Kiel was doing the same (lunch that is, with his family) and my dad went up to him and told how he liked his roll in "Moonraker" Mr. Kiel was a very humble man and well read person. He well be missed.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/pointlaff_zpsc92eccf8.gif I'm STILL YOUNGER!

I read about Richard Kiel passing. I liked how he, as Jaws, went from bad guy to good in Moonraker. Most people forget, that an actor that plays bad guys, are not bad in real life, and he was not.

The only tv show in that list I remember well from the early 70ies (in Germany, that is) was "Flipper", that was VERY popular then in my country - all the kids I knew watched that one. They even did a German version of the title song:

"Wir rufen Flipper, Flipper,
den Freund aller Kinder
jeder kennt ihn,
den Klugen Delphin..."

That was the beginning, as I remember it. Translated it was something like that:

"We're calling Flipper,
Flipper, the friend of all children,
everybody knows him,
that smart dolphin..."

Brings back memories... now I'm 53, and my kids, twin girls aged 16, are watching shows like Navy CIS, NCIS L.A.! Times change... :)

Shows like Flipper were real family shows, no worries for our parents about language or adult stuff.

I was in Germany in the early 60's as an Air Force brat, it was the first and last time I flew on a plane. I only remember seeing snow out of the window where we lived. I was about 3 or 4 years old.

All Eyes on Flipper
Tv Theme Flipper - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=azEOeTX1LqM)

The model kit of Ensign Darwin from Seaquest, was really the Flipper model kit with the added air tank.

What a difference from the American version....

They call him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning,
No-one you see, is smarter than he,
And we know Flipper, lives in a world full of wonder,
Flying there-under, under the sea!
Everyone loves the king of the sea,
Ever so kind and gentle is he,
Tricks he will do when children appear,
And how they laugh when he's near!
They call him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning,
No-one you see, is smarter than he,
And we know Flipper, lives in a world full of wonder,
Flying there-under, under the sea!

I used to love that show, and your so right my friend, our parents had nothing to worry about when it came to that show or just about any show on TV in the 70's.

MEtv is showing The Man From U.N.C.L.E. on Sundays now! :)

Thank you, Squire,my friend! Yes, today is my B.D.

I just watched the 1st episode of VTTBOTS, in glorious B&W. The first time since 1964, that I have watched it in B&W. I always watched the color version.
I enjoyed it, except the way FOX cut the main title short, by not having it said,"Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, brought to you by....". It just don't seem right to edit it so.

As a coincidence as if for my Birthday, yesterday I got a tee shirt in the mail, that was purchased and given anonymously from a Firefly member who appreciates my constant support to all the projects that appear on the Firefly forum I am a member of. The friend that mailed it, paid the postage. It is so nice to have good friends here and there.

Today is the 35th Anniversary of the debut of Filmation's Flash Gordon. One of the best, and the most faithful to Alex Raymond's comics.
I love this series, which I just watched lately. Here (maybe again) is my model of Ming the Merciless Drone Ship that I scratch built.

Happy belated birthday to both AZSneed and Scotty. Not been about much as Mrs PCM and myself have been planning our 7 year old sons Charlie and the chocolate factory party. It went down quite well in our local scout hut with me dressed up as Willy Wonka with a sweet shop made up in the kitchen. Spent about �180 to �200 on sweets/candy. There were between 35 and 40 kids there. That was yesterday and today I am worn and burnt out. ;)

Aye! it was followed by 2 days of a headache that could kill an Capellan Power-Cat! I'm in no rush to get back in Engineering, at the moment! just as long as you guys have not changed the intermix temperatures or moved the Dilithium chambers, we should be fine.

I'm afraid I no longer have a boat after I told the European Fisheries Commission to stick their fishing quotas up where the sun doesn't shine. When I then demonstrated this by shoving a two week old halibut up the chairman of the Fisheries commission nether regions, they sent out a NATO submarine to sink The Stinking Trout (my fishing vessel). Needless to say that I am no longer welcome in Brussels ;) .

I am now on the rampage about a new pointless rule that they have created. Now you may think I'm joking here, but I'm not. The EU have now placed a ban on the selling of vacuum cleaners with a motor of 1,600 watts or higher, and by 2017 they won't be able to be more than 900 watts. This is all in the belief that it will save energy. So the fact that you will have to spend twice as long actually vacuuming the floor, because it's hardly picking anything up, thus burning more resources and wearing out the vacuum cleaner quicker. Which in turn means that the factories have to manufacture more vacuum cleaners, using more energy, and also polluting the world more with the bi products created in the manufacture of plastics, clearly demonstrates the the people making these laws in Brussels have the brain the size of a brussel sprout. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/aug/21/anger-as-eu-bans-most-powerful-vacuum-cleaners


Sorry what was the question again? :D

Doctor who?

Just like florescent bulbs, save energy they say. Less light, means more bulbs to light a room. So like the vacuum cleaners, bad idea in the guise of saving energy.

How about sending the find folks with brussel sprouts for brains, into space and introduce them to the vacuum of space. Fun for us, at least!

Sounds like a good idea to me. Yes, the EU have banned the manufacture and importation of the old fasioned incandescent bulbs as well. First of all we lost the 100watt and higher around 2009, then the 60 watt in about 2012 and I even believe we can't get 40 watt bulbs now either. The problem with the new energy efficent bulbs are that they take a while to get to full strength when you switch them on. Now the good old incandescent bulbs came on at full illumination when you sent power to them. Seems like technology is going backwards. You're lucky to be living in the US AZSneed where a man can use a 2800 watt vacuum cleaner under a 150 watt incandescent bulb.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Environmentalist (or as I call them) Enviromental Nut Jobs, that having nothing better to do then tell the rest of us how to live our life's! We have been putting up with this shit for years now (guess it took awhile to get across the pond) and people wonder why England wants to leave the EU! Hell I want to fire every person in our government! It cost more energy to recycle then to manufacture the product and some products (plastic) can not be recycled, so the cut them up to use as filler in shipping box's. One thing is universal in all this world, you can't change Stupid.

Well here in California the State has outlawed incandescent bulbs, so we are stuck with fluorescent bulbs (and they did not tell us) the fluorescent bulbs (if broken) release's mercury in the air and potentially could poison a person! Hows that for a government for the people, by the people! So far the State has not clamped down on wattage's on vacuum-cleaners, at lest so far anyway but give them time and they well.

I have a very load BOOM Stick Too LOL if it is racked at night (Total Darkness) it can even make a grown person soil themselves :) there is nothing like the sound of a Mossberg 590A1 racking in total darkness to make ones bowls turn to water! and that sound is sure to give a real man a woody :)

Try Double O buck shot! all you should see (if fired at close range) is a red mist and nothing else.

You can eliminate 3/4 of the air pollution, by getting the jerks in Washington to shut up, and get to work!

Nope, the only way to get DC back to work is to fire all of them and watch the pollution drop to zero, kind of like turning on a light at night and watching all the roaches run for cover :) (interesting fact roaches are blind! they feel vibrations that's way they run)

Fire them? The people have the power, to vote a replacement, and don't. I vote against the incumbents no matter the party, and everyone else vote for them. Then they complain that they are not doing their job.

My favorite scene in Mars Attack movie, IS the elimination of Congress by the Martians. I could not stop laughing!

You of course noticed that as usual, that most issues are put on hold until the AFTER the election. THAT is the time for the people to say, do something or you are out.

For 2016, I am not sure who to vote for, Howard the Duck, or Earl Pitts, Native American Red Neck. Either would be better that what are planning to run...now that is an idea....make the RUN to a finish line, and the winner will be President. Then they can say that the ran for the office. Also, no one should care about how much money they RAISED or what bank they robbed. it should be ....wait a minute.....again, tell me what do they do?

I'm off to my world, it is safer.:)

You mean this one...? LOL

I agree! I loved that scene too :)

I have yet to see anyone worth voting for either, sad. I wish I could tell you what their supposed to do!, every time I open my mouth about that, congress goes and shows me how much of a bunch of ass's they are and need to be fired. There are three things that should be done to fix all the crap! 1) move the voting age back up to 21 2) Go back to the old way, only those that own land should only vote 3) Term Limits on all of congress. Number three has be a Constitutional Amendment! it will be the only way to get congress back to business of the people, with an added rider that once your term is over with no member can run for a higher or lower office again period.

I watch MRCTV (youtube) some of the interviews of college students just goes and shows how squared up the education system really is and another reason college kids have no business voting.

When I turned 18, I had a choice for President to vote for, Ford or Jimmy (Billy). Jimmy talked what his dream for America, my thought, I don't want a dreamer, so I voted for Ford.

I am getting a head start for Halloween movie watching, and watched the CLASSICS, The Screaming Skull, and Torment. Both were better than I thought, and had good endings, for a change. And now, I am watching a few episodes of Topper. All of them are about ghost. Next up, The Tell-Tale Heart.

When I hear bumps in the night, it is usually me running into things in the dark.;)

I could not make it through tell tale heart....boring! Now switched gears, and watching QUARK TV series from 1977. I really like that show. Richard Benjamin is great as the Captain of a garbage ship. Like most shows I get into, killed off too soon.

One thing about getting old, I ferget, so if I remember, I will PM.

I have been watching the original Clone War cartoon series. I loved the series, since I saw the 1st episode on Cartoon Network. Fast paced excitement!

I also watched the edited together of episode into a movie of the Ewok cartoon series. I still like it, except for the music change.

I hope that Disney will release the Ewok Droids Adventure Hour on DVD. Since Disney owns ABC and Lucasfilm, I see no problem, just when.

That my friend is the million dollar question!

Knowing Disney, they will release it when they thank they can make millions off it and not until then. By the time they do, you and I will be so old we wont remember our own damn names, let a lone who or what is an Ewok.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Yes, the EU have banned the manufacture and importation of the old fasioned incandescent bulbs as well. First of all we lost the 100watt and higher around 2009, then the 60 watt in about 2012 and I even believe we can't get 40 watt bulbs now either. The problem with the new energy efficent bulbs are that they take a while to get to full strength when you switch them on. Now the good old incandescent bulbs came on at full illumination when you sent power to them. Seems like technology is going backwards. You're lucky to be living in the US AZSneed where a man can use a 2800 watt vacuum cleaner under a 150 watt incandescent bulb.


Hairdryers too.

I got my 2015 Star Trek Ships of the Line Calendar yesterday, as usual a great collection of Star Trek art. Another not to miss one.

I just finished watching the cartoon series, Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century. I like the series, and it is true as possible to the spirit of the stories.

Right now, I am attempting to watch the 2007 Flash Gordon series. It really is not anywhere close to the real Flash Gordon. The last good version of Flash Gordon, was the Sam Jones movie, any since then, garbage. I hope the new movie they are talking about doing will go back to Alex Raymond's strips.

I just saw this on youtube...a great commercial and I want this kids room :)

There doing a new Flash Gorden series! the premier episode was shown last night (it was on a local channel here, so you will need to check your local lineup), I recorded it but have not had time to watch it so far today.

You lucky dog! I'll see if I can find one around my area :p

As a German resident I have the privilege to see the Volkswagen commercials on a daily basis. The one with the kid is the best of them.

Just found this clip from 1982:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nwOniU6FfY0

It's the "Merv Griffin Show" with Shatner and Nimoy together on it, promoting "Wrath of Khan". As always, they have a great chemistry and definitely show their deep affection for each other. (Merv Griffin is one of those old-school hosts who seems, to me, a little dumb and unprepared, and who doesn't care much for Star Trek.)

Now watching this Roger Corman flick from 1958:

Interesting plot about trying to send man into space, at first ambivalent about if aliens are sabotaging the attempts, or if some enemy on Earth is behind it.

Thanks for the links!

The Corman movie is one that I have not seen, yet. And it was made in a good year.

George Pal movies! now there is some fun stuff, used to love watching them on TV when I was a kid, I would love to see them all on the big screen, the only one I did was Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze! and have it on DVD.

I'm back to Halloween themed shows, now watching Kolchak:The Night Stalker. Scary fun, fer sure!

Always a great show AZ!

I like that show, too. Had downloaded the episodes years ago, the two movies and the rather short single season. Darren McGavin is a fine actor, gave that show a special quality!

I have not watched the remake series, and I am thinking of buying the set.

Watching the series, I can see where they got the inspiration for X-Files.

How about the aptly named "Halloween" movie by Mr. Carpenter. The psycho wears a Captain Kirk mask. How's that for a Star Trek link? Eh? Eh?

Wow, I never noticed, good catch. Michael Kirk...http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/jawdrop.gif

Tonight, or more accurately in the early hours of Sunday morning, the Movies4men channel will be showing "The Thing From Another World". I wonder if it's going to be the colour version. If it is I've got my beer goggles at the ready. Actually, I'll probably start putting them on now. It's unseasonably warm tonight :)

I enjoyed it! Funny as always. I love the cars, which are also model kits.

I bought on DVD yesterday, and watched 1932 The Mummy, and 1933 The Invisible Man. I had both on VHS, and did not want to fool with setting up everything to see them. I love the Invisible Man, it is still an awesome movie. The Mummy is still good, but, a little slow compared to the juicy movie version.

NOW, to The Real Ghostbusters.

I just finished a model from the 1954-55 TV series Rocky Jones, Space Ranger, it is the Cargo Ship CM7. First is a screen grab, and a photo of my model. The series was filmed, so it is easy to find all of episodes, or movies made from the episodes.

Oh, how MARVELLOUS! A splendid example of homo sapiens. Oh, what primitive fury. Why, he's the very soul of sublime savagery! Come in, my friend, and tell me more about your adventures!! My castle is your home! :)

If you don't know it, that is a Reaver from the movie Serenity, the follow up to the series Firefly. As stated in the pilot TV movie Serenity, Reavers will rape you to death, eat your flesh, and sew your skin into their clothing, and you better hope they do it in that order.....SO. Do you REALLY want it in your castle?

Hell, yeah, I'm the Squire of Gothos, and as you should know, my instrumentality is unbreakable. Come on in, my dear Reaver, I challenge you to a duel! HIP-HIP HOORAY--- TALLY HO!!

I would expect no less from the Squire!

Right now I am listening to Orson Welles broadcast of War of the Worlds. Still great to listen to.

Ditto.

My Halloween was a complete wash, in the literal sense! as soon as the sun went down the wind picked up and it rained all night long, not some sprinkle, it was a downpour! the poor kids got rained out....man that sucks. Hope all yours was better then mine?


Scott

Cold front came in, cold and VERY windy!

It sucks, that the kids got messed out of CANDY..CANDY...CANDY!

We are expected a freeze tonight....I HATE WINTER!

There is going to be a lot of leftover candy around these parts!

I love winter, I would rather be a little cold then roasting all night long :) Where I live it snows about once every ten years (if then) but it gets cold enough to snow, we just get fog! sometimes so bad you can't see your hand in front of your face. Though none of that helps the idiots on the freeways that drive at full speed (65 to 70 mph), even if they can't see two feet in front of themselves. I-(Interstate)5 comes through a portion of the county I live in and several years ago a windstorm came up and one minute the freeway was there and the next it was gone! 70 plus trucks, cars ended up in the biggest pileup in our history (of course where this happened on I-5 happened to be right at the edge of the county line, 45 minuets from downtown and the nearest trauma 1 hospital) needless to say 9 people were killed (it could have been worse) but it sure caught us with our pants down! we were not prepared at all. It took us and the CHP over a week to figure out what happened and to clean it all up. That my friends, is one of the reasons I stay off the freeways around here...to many idiot drivers.

Scott

I can find ways to cool down, to warm up, less choices for me.

I heard a race car driver got practice on the Southern Boulevard in Montgomery, AL, I believe it! The worst drivers I have experienced, Elmore County, AL.

I bought Saturday at Winn Dixie, a four Hammer classic movie pack. Dracula Has Risen From The Grave, Horror of Dracula, Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed, and The Curse of Frankenstein. Late for Halloween, but, a not to miss set.

I don't know where I got this from (my mom or dad) but me feet stay warm all year round! you could put a 20 pound turkey on my feet and thirty minutes later it is cooked. I used to force my ex-wife out of bed because of the heat my feet generate at night. I can believe it, all one has to do is drive one of our freeways and see all the tire marks on the concrete divider, glass and debris on the freeway and get right off. In the 40 years I have been driving, I have had two accidents, both where not my fault, no moving citations or parking tickets, I get calls or mail from every insurance company wanting me to join them. lol

You lucky dog! I would love to have them!! AMC showed Dracula Has Risen From The Grave, Horror of Dracula Friday night! they were great!!! we just have the normal video stores, which suck! where they in letterbox? I love letterbox, just the way it was filmed and should be seen.

Scott

All four movies are letterbox. I am watching Dracula Has Risen From The Grave, and Lee is the most evil Dracula I have ever watched.

When my feet are cold, I'm cold, and when my bald head is hot, I'm hot. So Winter is rough for me.

P.S. Stop over at my house Thanksgiving day, and cook my turkey....please wear socks!:)

Cool!! You are so right...Lee is the best ever.

I know the feeling on the bald head, your like my brother, his feet are always cold, you should get one of those electric lap blankets! my mother had one and works great to keep your feet warm on those cold days and nights.

LOOOL socks are mandatory cooking things on my feet :) not that my feet stink! they smell like roses ;)

Another great youtube video I found today:


The Outer Limits documentary, part 2: William Shatner, Martin Landau

The Outer Limits documentary, part 2: William Shatner, Martin Landau - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjM5ViyN43c)

First, I LOVE that show, great scripts, music and actors! Here you'll see some short interviews with Shatner and Landau about their Outer Limits episodes, and the commentaries about Shatner's pre-trek work in Outer Limits are hilarious! Great stuff! :)

I'm guessing that Pre-Kirk was in the second season. I have the 1st season, and did not see him.

I agree 100 percent my friend! The Outer Limits and Twilight Zone were the best and still are. I love to watch them, but TNT is not the same anymore. The only time I see The Twilight Zone is on the syfy channel and it has to be some major Holiday. One of these days I have to get both shows! Thanks for the link, I enjoyed watching Shatner not remember his parts on The Outer Limits, just the pay check. lol Martin Landau is still a wonderful actor, his memory is sure better then Shatners :)

I'll be on vacation starting tomorrow until the 9th. the first one in 13 years! 4 days in Las Vegas with my youngest brother and my youngest son :) no gambling, just relaxing and seeing the sights. All of you take care of yourselves and have some laughs! life is short, so enjoy the little things. I will be back on Monday the 10th.


Scott

Have fun, and be careful, my friend!http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/spocksmiley.gif

Have a nice trip, Scotty! And don't antagonize the Klingons, if you happen to meet them there! LOL

****************

I'm guessing that Pre-Kirk was in the second season. I have the 1st season, and did not see him.
AZSneed, it was this episode:

Ep. 34 (2x02) - 26/Sep/64 - Cold Hands, Warm Heart

If you want to see it, let me know, and I'll upload it for you (about 300 MB, I believe, in avi format). ;)

Update:
Found this youtube video, a nice intro to that episode, so you can see what to expect:

It's All in Your Mind - William Shatner - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rZG8a5Bvb8)

It may contain some (visual) spoilers, so if you really don't know the episode, you may want to wait for my upload! ;)

Hoping you guys are doin' ok, I've been really busy on a project at Combat Ace for payware. I'm pretty broke right now and am hoping to be able to get a project sold. Sorry I've not been talking much. I'm trying to keep up with post request and news as much as I can.

Soundtracker, thanks for the info. I still want to get the second season on DVD.

Spectre, I glad someone is working here! Scotty and I, retired, and the Squire don't need money, snap fingers, there it is.

Just finished watch the complete series of Conan live TV series. It is not too much like the novels, but entertaining all the same.

I made it back in one piece! and did not piss off one Klingon :) I had a great time, thanks everyone.

Boy has Vegas changed! of course the last time I was there was 20 years ago LOL my brother and I spent the best time on Fremont Street (the real home of Vegas) it was great seeing the old casinos and hotels again, they can keep the new casinos/hotels nothing but shops and more shops and miles of even more. We walked six miles and saw tons of all the new buildings and more and more shops! the whole new area is like one long shopping center, with a few recognizable fast food names (McDonalds, Burger King) thrown in and everything on the strip costing double! I normally pay about $4.00 for a pack of smokes at home, there it was $11.00! Fremont street as I said was the best part of the whole trip! all the old casinos/hotels are still there (names have changed) they have all been updated and remodeled, there is a metal canopy over all of Fremont street with LCD monitors in the top and they do a light show every hour! that was great! (if you ever go make sure you do it at night) there is a zip line that goes all the way done Fremont ($20.00 gets you half way and $40.00 gets you all the way down Fremont) and they concreted Fremont street, so it is one big walkway. The hotels are far cheaper there then on the new strip, my brother and I (the next time we go) are going to stay at the Plaza (which is at the end of Fremont street) plus the Plaza has been totally remodeled and looks great! live bands at every side street (each takes its turn through out the night) I can't tell you all how much fun we had walking down the old strip and the different individuals dressed up, I saw Darth Vader, Chewie, Dorthy (wizard of oz, this Dorthy was not for kids, if you know what I mean), Chris Farley (of course impersonator) several American indians (not for kids either lol) and several statue people, which was fun to pose with and take pictures (which I can't post because my brother would kill me :) ) the whole experience on Fremont street was the best time we both had there, can't wait to go again! but it is good to be home again.

Thanks AZ, you bet it is! and no Doctor McCoy, someone had to keep an eye on my little brother (51 years old) because he was drinking and his first name is...ready for this...Kirk! yeah our mother was ahead of her time hehehehe a Scotty and Kirk in one family :) he needed the down time more then I did! long story, but suffice to say his marriage of 30 years is coming to a close. So I did what any big brother does, took care of my little brother and let him let his hair down for a few hours and made sure he did not throw-up on his shoes :)

Truly a STAR TREK family. Your dog must be named McCoy..."Damn it, I'm a dog not a Doctor!"

It is a shame about your Brother's troubles, and good to have a Big Brother like you to make him forget, if not for a short time.

My Brother will be 50 in January, so we are really close in age.

What do you polish your head with, car wax or furniture polish? I like car wax.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/lau_zpsf2785ec5.gif

YES! I'm crazy. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/drooling.gif

We are five years apart, but I have always had a soft spot for him! Thanks AZ that was the main motive was to get him to forget for a while! my other brother and I are 15 months apart and have bump heads all our life's...go figure!

I like that High Shine car wax, nearly blinds all on coming people and cars LOL sure makes it easy to get through a crowd, there all covering there eyes and on coming cars violently move out of my way :) makes me feel like I'm back in a patrol car with the red and blue lights going again.

Yes you are crazy, so move the hell over and let me in! just think of the light we can both bounce off our heads and how much easier we can get from point A to point B together :)

Scott

p.s. the dog we had as kids was a black lab named "Prince" he was the best! we called him butthead for short, he had a mind of his own, but no coordination...hence Butthead.

I, too, have a Brother about 15 months younger, and don't get along. SPOOKY!

I CAN'T SEE YOU! PUT A CAP ON! :)

I had a cat named Spock, he would follow me walking in the woods out back of the house, then I had to carry him back. CATS!

Really!

He (my brother just below me) is taller then me 6'4 to my 6'1/2 and weighing in at close to 300 pounds to my 225 pounds! those that don't knows us, and you put the two of us together they think he is the oldest! and we have the same lack of hair on our head...go figure.

Careful! I'll tilt my head to the right angle, blind you and incinerate you at the same time ;)

You got to love them! (animals) because of the medication I take my mouth drys out pretty fast, so I kept a glass of water next to my side of the bed, one night I got woken up because I heard a slurping sound, I opened my eyes and there was my cat with her head down in my glass drinking my water! damn cat! so I picked up my glass and put it in the kitchen, then in the sink and went back to bed. A few minutes later the damn cat is meowing right in my face! I shooed her away and a minute later she was right back meowing in my face again. The only way to shut her up was to get up and fill the glass with water and put it back on the night stand and had to do that every night until she died! what we do for our animals lol

My little brother (the little shit, we are the same height too) still has all of his hair and loves to remind me of that! Siblings, what can you do with them...love them or shot them, you lose no matter what lol


Scott

My little brother has more hair, but not that much.

I keep a plastic flask with water by my bed,more now with the heater blowing dry heat.

This week, we will get our first freeze, in the upper 20's. I'm ready for Spring.

Oh Brother! :)

Is that Oh or Old Brother?;)

I watched again 007 Moonraker. It is my first 007 movie I watched in the theaters, and I was really interested to see it because of the first time to see a Space Shuttle go into space. It is a real enjoyable light hearted movie, and my favorite. I also, watched it to add more music to complete my soundtrack and more research for the model I am doing. I am building the 747 carrying the Moonraker Shuttle.

Oh Brother! :)

Or Oh Brother where art thou? :)

Scott

That's closer to it.

Thank you for the last pm as well :)

I just watched the Scotty clip, and very enjoyable, thanks! He was, still is, and always will be, a miracle worker!

I'd say so! you need to give out the address to this flea market! ;)


Scott

If I gave out the address, I would violate Star Fleet's General Order Number One!

Or at least I think so.

I watched the pilot movie of Lois and Clark, and I had forgotten how good it is. I haven't seen it since it's original broadcast.

I also got for $1, the movie, 2010 The Wolfman, which I have not seen, yet.

Also, a two pack of two well remembered classics, Voodoo Curse:The Gidden and Mexican Werewolf in Texas. Classics? What the heck was I thinking?http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/lau_zpsf2785ec5.gif

Mexican Werewolf in Texas? We need better Border control!

You got that right! I wonder if the Werewolf howls in Spanish.

Mexican Werewolf in Texas? We need better Border control!

Amen Brother!

My idea of border control is The Great American Wall (15 feet high) and a 10 feet deep canal (in front of the wall) with imported alligators from Florida.

I can't pass this up!!! LOOOL

I got a call one night of a bar fight in a very small county (piss ant) town, when I arrived the fight was still in progress, so I called for backup and a few minutes later my backup arrived. The fight was a normal Friday night drunk fight between..wait for it.....you guess it! drunk illegals over some broken down women, that had a face that would scare the bark off of a tree! anyway we broke up the fight and the guy I had in custody settled down and was ready to spend the rest of his night in jail. As I was putting him in the back of my vehicle I heard this cry IEEEEEEEEEEE! I looked over to were my partner was and I saw his prisoner legs fold out from under him and start to head toward the ground, my partner had hold of his cuffs [which were behind the prisoner back] (we call this the cop two step, where the officer grabs the chain in between the cuffs and pulls up, which has the effect of pulling the arms out of socket and is very painful to say the lest, but it does make the person stand up real fast) but that was not causing this guy to go down, after I got mine into the car, I walk over to my partner and this guy keeps crying out IEEEEEEEE! and dropping toward the ground! I'm like what the hell is going on? I walk up to my partner and just before he gets the guys head into the open door, the guy cry's out again IEEEEEEEEE! and goes flying into the back seat! my partner turns around and in his hand is his stun gun!! His prisoner pissed on him and he was mad as hell (because he was going to have to drive all the way back to the jail in a heated car with the smell of piss in the air and for the guy pissing on him to begin with) I laughed so hard I thought I was going to pee my pants!! from then on every time we responded to the same call of some bar fight both of us would call out IEEEEEEEEEE! as walked toward the bar!

So to answer your question I bet he said IEEEEEEEEEE! LOL

Fun times :)

Scott

I watched the "werewolf" movie....http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/lloyd2/throwup.gif....it is so bad, that I laughed while everyone that got mauled, DIED! The "great white hunter" was an idiot, the Sheriff Dept. were idiots, and the only smart one was the animal doctor. I put the DVD where it should be...IN THE GARBAGE! The other movie on the flip side, about voodoo, worst. So, for my $1, I got an empty DVD case.

The great Squire, came through for me, THANKS!
