Oveur and Out

[Chuck to Chuck]

Any black and white screencap from a Peter Graves movie that isn't "Beginning of the End" doesn't deserve to be linked.

Thou shalt not insult Stalag 17.  DO YOU HATE THE TROOPS?

Peter Graves, Beverly Garland, AND Lee Van Cleef. How can you not include  "It Conquered the World"?

[Tinker to Evers to Chance]

He learned, almost too late, that man is a feeling creature and, because of it, the greatest in the universe. He learned, too late for himself, that men have to make their own way, to make their own mistakes. There can't be any gift of perfection from outside ourselves. And, when men seek such perfection, they find there's only death, fire, loss, disillusionment, the end of everything that's gone forward. Men have always sought an end to toil and misery. It can't be given; it has to be achieved. There is hope, but it has to come from inside, from man himself.

I'd like a little more Cheapnis please.

TEC, you magnificent bastard.

I've auditioned with that monologue before. SPOILER ALERT: I did not get cast.

I think we need a Roger Corman / Bert I. Gordon thread.

"They always have a little revolver that they're gonna shoot the monster with, and there is always a girl who falls down and twists her ankle . . . heh-hey! Of course there is! You know how they are, the weaker sex and everything, twisting their ankle on behalf of the little ice-cream cone."

"Where Have All the People Gone" remains the sine qua non.

These youngsters with their Heavy Metal Fridays would serve themselves well to have the occasional Frank Zappa Friday.

Today is Marvin Gaye Tuesday, but if you really want me to, I'll dust off One Size Fits All, Läther, We're Only In it For the Money, and maybe one of the YCDTOSA sets for Friday, old man.

By the way, I never liked that Zappa takes a swipe at Beverly Garland's character for twisting her ankle. Unlike a lot of women in 50s B-movies, she went down shooting and cursing that giant space pickle all the way.

[Slaky]

I would play more Zappa here at work but the guy behind me is a savant and can name the year and date for any tiny snippet of a song he hears. Zappa is in his wheelhouse. Then I'd have to sit through 20 minutes of him telling me every detail of how/when/why the album was recorded along with the biographies of all the musicians that played on it.

Pass.
