Honestly don't have to double-check: the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena!! (I think. ;) ) Yep, that's it! Or, at least WAS it, anyway. 'Cause as I'm sure you know, that location is now where they would build that stadium where they play that game in which almost all players aren't allow to use th...

I love the poignant film friendship of Sol and Thorn... Interesting anecdote to the SOYLENT GREEN duo, Dargo, which you're almost certainly already familiar: Charlton Heston eulogized Edward G.

Damn, Dargo, I wish I'd come up with that one! So NS, you fellow ol' SoCal boy, you. Can you tell me where the exterior shots were filmed in this flick and as Eddie G. walks toward that assisted suicide building? (...betcha can, can't ya) I love the poignant film friendship of Sol and Thorn... Inte...

Oh yeah! I was there...

I'm considering going to KINGDOM of the pLANET of the ApES this week but, if I do, it will be purely perfunctory yield. I was a child during the original releases of the first five films, so motion-capture technology cannot recapture those early years of the franchise for me... They looked so good: ...

T C M's screening of " THE FIRST AUTO " last night reminded me of the Riverside International Raceway as Charles Emmett Mack is said to have been killed in an automobile accident enroute to a Riverside racetrack during filming of the 1927 movie. I wondered if there was going to be expoundi...
