TCM is basic!
Well, it's not a stand-alone package, but my cable has multiple sets of non-premium, and TCM is stuck on one where it's the only thing of interest for me. The one I do have has a bunch of stuff I watch (SciFi, Bravo, IFC, Sundance, etc.), so it depends on your cable extorter..er..provider. Much as I'd love to have it I can't keep up with everything on the channels I do have, so it isn't worth it to pony up for just that.
I really should see Experiment in Terror. I've got the soundtrack.
Ross Martin makes an excellent psycho.
Sweet!
The Ruling Class
is playing on Peter O'Toole day. So is
The Stunt Man
and
My Favorite Year.
I'm going to miss their Summer Under the Stars programming.
Exactly. As a single person, I think it is hard enough to justify $65 a month for television, let alone more than that.
I watch so few channels beyond network that I wish there was some kind of package where I could cherry-pick 10 channels. And then I could get TCM, FSC, and TV5.
Wow, they've got a John Gilbert day. Never seen his famous pairings with Garbo.
See them. And don't rely on Queen Christina alone -- it's a Garbo vehicle first, last, and only. I mean, Gilbert is fine in it, but it's much more "Garbo featuring Gilbert" than "Garbo and Gilbert."
Fortunately, TCM comes in the same package that covers both the MLB network, and the upchannel variants of kid shows (Nicktoons, Sprout) etc. and it doesn't cost much more than the basic cable.
Yowza, they've got a slate of pre-code comedies coming up featuring Zasu Pitts! Look at those titles: Hips, Hips Hooray!; Maids a la Mode; Cockeyed Cavaliers; The Nickel Nurser; The Pip from Pittsburg; Dollar Dizzy; and Whispering Whoopee.
JZ would watch every single one of those just for the titles and the costumes.
Wow, I thought there would be more discussion about Inception in here.
How far back did you look?
I actually thought you were being sarcastic when you posted that. There has been SO much "Inception" talk.
I did too!! it made me snicker.
if you find the shooting script, Java Cat, will you link? because i'm in a fight with my dad about what Saito says after he says, "I bought the airline.". i heard, "It seemed neater." and he heard "It seemed needed.". would love to prove him wrong since he always thinks he's right.
I have the shooting script. It's neater.
tiggy, I think Saito said:
neater or cleaner.
