The Silver Screen Oasis

I love Spotify. I was using Google Play music and they cancelled that service, making "youtube music"...which I hated. I tried Amazon music for a month or so, but I didn't like it either (too repetitive and no music discovery to speak of). Spotify seems to have most of what I enjoyed about Google mu...

Update: I went through 4 or 5 pages (of 350) YouTube links and fixed them by removing the ] at the end of the link, so you see some code, but no impact to the video. These would be the most recent posts, if a few years ago is recent. :) I will probably do all 45 pages of the specific "youtube'n" thr...

You'll be happy to know Active Topics is again at the top of the forum. :) On a sour note, the forum software now requires a new "media" extension instead of the old YouTube method. Meaning, I would have to edit every single video post manually to get them to play as expected. New posts just have to...

Regarding active topics - the board is not frequently updated, so it will more often than not be empty. I can still add it though, just an observation.

1. I can change this (it is still there, only in the drop down list at the top left rather than laying out. If you don't mind two clicks, I can leave it there in the drop down. 2. I don't know why this would happen. I'll look into it. 3. I had to redo the whole thing, and left off the attribution. S...

Bumping up to confirm all is well with the forum after updates.

Love his movies, it's a shame he died so young. Only 44.

I don't have a question but I did want to stop in and say how I am looking forward to this film and can't wait to see it. Hedy Lamarr is a fascinating person to me. I guess I do have a tangential question...did you happen to catch Hedy's recent usage on Legends of Tomorrow (played by Celia Massingha...

We're all lurkers today. Happy Birthday (belated)!

Hi Lomm & Everyone!! An update on my plan to clean Mercedes McCambridge's stars on Hollywood Blvd. - - I didn't need to. The first day of the TCM FF, water trucks sprayed the entire streets around the areas of the Festival to clean everything for the participants. All the stars were clean and shiny...

Hi Lomm, I knew Mercedes McCambridge through her son, who was a (semi) friend of mine. He had the same history tutor as me; and Lawrence was his second name, the same as my first. He was a strange, unruly kid, and "Mercy" thought that I would be a good influence on him. She sometimes 'baby-sat' me ...

Happy anniversary movie buffs, and thanks to all who have made the Oasis last.

The third to last and most recent...loved. I haven't checked into this thread for quite some time!

Hello Joe, A very nice picture of Mercedes McCambridge - thank you. Next month, while in LA for TCM FF, I will again clean (Windex) her stars on the Blvd. As you know it was my promise to her!! Larry Larry, would you mind sharing this story with us? As you know, I'm fascinated by your tales of the ...

Something to look forward to. TCM to honor Robert Osborne with 48-hour tribute Turner Classic Movies will honor its late long-time host Robert Osborne with a 48-hour tribute celebrating his 23-year tenure with the network. The tribute will feature long-form interviews conducted by Osborne, an interv...
