I'll have to watch it again. I was a kid when I saw it last too.

Saw it for the first time a few months ago. I really liked it.

Yeah.
It seems like it would've been a blockbuster back when it was made. It had a ton of old-timey stars in it. I wonder how it was received when it came out. Maybe I'll visit my friend google.

That's a great old flick, been a long time since I've seen it.

Hey!
Know what's kind of like racing across a desert to find treasure buried under a "W"? Figuring out what city this is in!!! This is even better, because it's got geometry! http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...17#post5250517 |

That would've been pretty good for back then, I think. Right? In my Google searching, it appears that it was released just a few days before the Kennedy assassination in 1963, so I'll bet that hurt its figures a bit.

Agreed. Their little appearance made me laugh, though. It was a perfect cameo.

If you are just getting around to watching campy old movies you might try "Paleface" and "The Court Jester." I remember liking those as a kid. Or if you want really campy you could check out "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" or "The Incredible Mr. Limpet." |

I saw it as a kid and thought it was good. I saw it as an adult and wondered why.
I did happen to catch a bit of Earthquake (1974) today and Genevieve Bujold is smoking hot in it. That was the only redeeming part of the movie and after her scene I switched channels. |

It's funny, on the subject of old movies. I was just looking back at some old movies I want to watch again. "Sorcerer" with Roy Scheider (sp?) was the one where the guys had to drive two truckloads of explosives through the jungle and if they bumped too hard it would explode. I'm planning to watch that again. And "Straw Dogs" with Dustin Hoffman. He's an American that moves into a house in England. These locals harass him until he's basically forced into violence. I'm planning to watch that again.
I remember them as good movies. I hope they hold up. |
