I could see Ben as Fozzie.

Also Rizzo the Rat.

How about The Count for Eddie?

I went to college at NYU. I'm sure Marty's mother and aunt would have been horrified, lol.

Ben introducing MARTY: "Marty is a non-traditional character, gap-toothed..."

Yes, wasn't it convenient to have Ernest Borgnine in the role since he was born with that particular dental feature.

Geez, get that Muppet replacement in for this smug, out-of-control nepo baby STAT!

Pick 'em!

MARTY tonight.

"A college girl -- one step from the street!"

"You know how to whistle, don't you, my lord? Just put your lips together and blow!"

At this juncture I say remove all five hosts and replace them with Muppets.

Agree, LostHorizons. "Hit your lights!" Ugh.

They seem so besotted by it all. "Look how much fun we're having as the guardians of classic film!" It comes across in equal amounts adolescent, crass, pretentious, embarrassing, gauche, hyper-corporate, and just plain stupid.

Liam, you won't be sorry.

I hate it!

The 1959 JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH brought back conflicted memories since still to this day I am traumatized by what happens to Gertrude the Duck. James Mason's Scottish accent comes and goes. Mainly goes, but who cares. He's the perfect tweedy, fussy, obsessive Victorian scientist/explorer...

Just saw a new promo for Noir Alley (as if they didn't have enough of them) -- with Eddie Muller wearing some kind of 1940's camel hair coat, walking the streets of Frisco looking "tough". So silly and frankly tiresome already imo. Forgive my ignorance on these matters, but don't all these...
