This guy has issues with basic stuff like moving the camera properly. And why is the narrator wearing a bow tie? Is that the proper attire of a prophet of doom? I'm not sure I'm going to make it to the end of this.

I think that's the only scene in which Bela Lugosi actually appears. Wood used old footage, because Lugosi had already died when the rest of the movie was made. In the rest of the movie a stand-in plays the Lugosi part, holding a cape up to his face.

CBS newsman's $70m lawsuit likely to deal Bush legacy a new blow

As George W Bush prepares to leave the White House, at least one unpleasant episode from his unpopular presidency is threatening to follow him into retirement.

A $70m lawsuit filed by Dan Rather, the veteran former newsreader for CBS Evening News, against his old network is reopening the debate over alleged favourable treatment that Bush received when he served in the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam war. Bush had hoped that this controversy had been dealt with once and for all during the 2004 election.

Kelli even started a group on Facebook called “Hey Facebook, Breastfeeding is Not Obscene.”

The group has become very popular and now has over sixty four thousand members. This is quite impressive. Her Facebook group is even going to have a virtual protest. The protest will involve people posting photographs of women, animals, or art that involve nursing. They are also going to change their online status to “Hey Facebook, breastfeeding is not obscene!”

Where do you stand on Israel's response to rocket attacks on its territory?

The possible responses are "justified" and "condemnable."

So far, "justified" is winning with 61%.

Usually, CNN's polls are more along the lines of "are you in favor of the worldwide peace, harmony, and happiness that will inevitably result if Obama is elected (yes or no)?"

Note that they are doing it "for the children" but the implications are serious.

That's a much more polite description of the color scheme than I would have gone with.

Well...yes. But we're watching Plan 9, which means some of us are laughing so hard we're on the verge of getting sick already.

One of the complaints is that C-BS "seriously damaged his reputation." Please. He could've done that with or without CBS.

Right. Because of CBS he went from "moonbat" to "barking moonbat".

re: #170 Sharmuta

That might be some of the worst staging I've ever seen- and I've seen elementary school productions.

Wood was famous for doing everything as quickly and cheaply as possible. Only William "One-Shot" Beaudine was close to him in that department. For instance, Wood solved his SFX problem for Plan 9 (model UFOs) with a visit to a local hobby shop

The Deadly Alien Flying Saucers From Plan 9

He just left off the two "jet engine" pods and spray-painted the whole thing silver, dome and all. (No idea if he put the little green guy in each one or not.)

Think about it. I have no doubt that, if he had been employed by another news outlet like NBC or ABC, that the same thing would have happened.

re: #188 notutopia

It's a fun little movie (1971) about an odd couple consisting of a young rich boy and an older woman. They both go to funerals for fun. I highly reccomend it if you like quirky and odd films. The tree planting scene is one of my favoites. Also, the main character, Harold, enjoys a strange hobby. (You'll see.) It's different and funny and I especailly love the jag-hearse.
It's not heavy at all.

Unless you want the box, I wouldn't bother. Glencoe Models has re-released the kit several times, most recently this year, and you can still find it in the shops for about $10-$15.

If you scroll down to the bottom of the page I linked to, it shows the Glencoe boxlid. The main difference between the 1970's Lindberg re-release and the present-day Glencoe is that the Glencoe is moulded in silver plastic like the original 1950s Lindberg. The Seventies repop was moulded in green glow-in-the-dark plastic.

/Mine is painted silver, anyway.

I love that the closing line of Bride of The Monster - "He tampered in God's domain" - became a running joke throughout the series: "He hampered God's Rogaine"; "He peppered God's lo mein", etc.

re: #214 MandyManners

Whatever it's as big of a joke as dear ol' Dan is.

This month in 1963, Studebaker ceased US production, before a 2 year move to Canada that ended it. It started as a wagon maker in 1852 and failed largely because of union contracts and strikes without a bailout.
I'm a collector of Studebakers and thought I'd share the video of the Studebaker that still holds the land speed records for a 4 passenger US production car.

There are a couple of things in that complaint that are funny as hell and make Dan Blather out to be a complete and total fool. One is where the complaint insists that even if the documents were fake Dan could not be held responsible. The other is where the complaints discloses various terms and conditions in Dan's contract, where the contracts specifically refers to Dan Blather as... "The Artist"...................

Funny story. The rights and tooling for the Avanti was purchased by a Studebaker dealer after production ceased. It was build in various incarnations from 1965 until 2007 with a Chevy engine. The last owner of Avanti motors was Mike Kelly, and he was caught in a ponzi scheme and the car finally died when the government seized his assets.

re: #234 MandyManners

Law Question for any Lizard Attorney.

Liability on a Home Owners Association sponsored New Years Eve party:

A neighbor down the street called me about attending a New Years Eve party and wanted to know if we would attend. I told her I didn't know what my wife had planned, but I would get back with her. This neighbor has a pattern of having parties with a lot of alcohol while children are present, she's also a school board member. Most of the parties in the past are touted as "Family Parties", but several of the adults forget that and become bullet proof.
An email arrived about a half hour later stating this was going to be a Home Owners Association party. The email said she had spoken to several of the neighbors and they had agreed to take money out of the Association dues to pay for a portion of the party...BS...I was asked if I would attend the party.

Question:

If someone at the party was injured or had an accident, could the Home Owners Association be held liable? Is it the responsibility of each one of the said Home Owners to make sure everyone drinks responsibly? Most of these parties are attended by people outside of the association and will be driving to the party. I don't know how association money can be used for parties without the approval of the home owners.

I don't have a problem with people getting together and having a good time. I don't like when it's presented as a safe party for our children while some adult get shit faced...that's why we stopped attending these kid safe parties several years ago.

We’ve started many open threads with quotes from it, so here’s the complete version of Ed Wood’s freaky masterpiece “Plan 9 from Outer Space” in all its below-zero-budget glory.

In my mind, this is what makes Plan 9 endearing in a way that, say, The Day After Tomorrow and Armageddon and Pearl Harbor and [pick your own lavishly produced but artistically shitty blockbuster] are not, and can never be.
