Was anyone thinking Ghostbusters when looking at it?

Lloyd is an interesting cat....been a fan for years and studied him for a time when I got into really learning about the silent stars years ago. Indeed, he retained ownership of this films and had a film vault at his estate ‘Greenacres’ which caught fire in 1943 and destroyed a lot of them (and almost killed Lloyd who…

One of his final movies (from 1965) was an art film called Samuel Beckett Film (Beckett wrote the screenplay). It is purely arthouse, but using Keaton’s strengths to create a surreal masterpiece.

I always loved Michael Caine discussing Jaws 4: The Revenge.

Thank you for the love of Stan Laurel! Also maybe this will help Harold Lloyd get more of the respect he deserves. He was a damn genius who was unfortunate to make movies at the same time as two even bigger geniuses.

Buster Keaton was a genius and many of his films are absolute marvels. I’m glad he got to get a taste of the massive amount of acclaim that was coming his way before his death.

Most of the folks I know that had one, had the communicator sound as the opening sound on that phone.

FYI the alternate “Joo Janta” (V.200) algorithm is available as an optional firmware download for those easily alarmed when studying.

Question: what percentage does the lady get? And where do the rest of it goes to? Because I don’t expect for Cimabue estate to ask for a hand out after 7 centuries.

I heard they are upgrading to this:

So who will they kill off? Han is dead, Obi Wan, Yoda, Anakin and Luke are all dead or transmogrified, and since Carrie is gone it’s a good bet Leia will die in Rise. So who’s left? If they kill off Chewie I’m out.
