By far, the best (worst?) "unintentional comedy" that I have ever seen
was "Russkies".  It's just amazing the number of unmotivated plot]
devices that are crammed into this film...

I think it was supposed to be touching, but all it touched was my funny bone.

He's not finished with the test, as is amply spelled out by the
dialogue.  If it was so easy to see that you know immediately, there
would be no need for a test, wouldn't there?  Think about it.

I confess that for me, "evidence" is not a synonym for "dialogue", so
if you will not accept plot contradictions there will be no "evidence."

And where do you get they idea they are able to erase memories?

I was simply talking about memories per se.  "Old habits die hard."
Explicitly erasing memories while keeping a replicant functional is
more difficult than putting memories into a growing replicant's head.
Sorry, but I think this is self-evident.  If it's not acceptable in
the universe of Peter Alexander Merel, we may as well end the
discussion here.

I don't see what the notion of feasible has to do with this.  Nothing
in the film suggests that retrofitting implants is feasible (and to
prove it according to your guidelines, nobody talks about that).

> You're arguing that Deckard is definitely, without a doubt, human. 

No.  Deckard definitely is not human, he is a character in a film who
is impersonated by a human actor.  I am arguing that if that character
were not intended to be human, the film would have a huge gaping
inconsistency.  Of course, if you accept that, you have no problem.
Ex falso quodlibet (perfectly fits your definition of SF, by the way).

If Your Humbleness decides which parts of the film serve as proof,

Yes, there have been a few posts regarding the film, which is in production right now.
In fact, Spielberg (I don't know the spelling, either) and his crew were in Kuaui
(another spelling slaughter) when it was hit by the hurricane.  Apparently they were
just finishing a 15-day shoot.  Lucas Films is (was?) doing the special animation
effects.

I heard a rumor that Spielberg dumped ILM from the production, however, because a 
smaller, but far better, special effects team sent him some outstanding samples of
their work.  Apparently these samples blew S.S. away, so he signed on this other
team instead...

Can anyone help me out on this one...?

Thanks.

HUSBANDS AND WIVES opened at 300-350 screens in the U.S., an
unprecedentedly large number for a Woody Allen film. Normally, an
Allen film opens only in major urban markets.  For example, in Seattle
an Allen film is normally given an "exclusive booking" at one of our
art houses. HUSBANDS AND WIVES opened at eight theaters, many of them
in the suburbs.

The reason, of course, is the unpleasantness between Allen and Mia
Farrow that took over the newspapers a month ago and that inspired Tri
Star to push up the release date and expand the number of venues.

I have no idea how many screens CAPTAIN RON opened on, but I would be
greatly surprised if the number were not between 500 and 1000.  And
with an appropriate publicity budget.

It will be interesting to what kind of legs each movie has, that is to
say, its staying power, especially once the sensation-mongering types
sate their unwholesome curiosity about la affaire Allen, insofar as
HUSBANDS AND WIVES permits them to do so.

You speak of depression over the fact that a silly, dismissible
vehicle for two "stars," neither one of whom has ever shown he can
carry a movie by himself, made more money than one of the greatest
films by America's leading independent filmmaker. Me, I'm depressed by
the circus of ghoulish voyeurism that surrounds the presence of this
masterpiece on the top-ten list. That, and the fact it took a
supermarket-tabloid scandal to turn Woody Allen into a popular,
money-making filmmaker.

Just cracked the book to refresh my memory, and found this passage
in the epilogue:

    Cliff Robertson was blacklisted for four years after reporting
    David Begelman's forgery.  Finally Robertson was given a part in
    a film called _Brainstorm_....  As might have been predicted,
    Robertson found himself working on _Brainstorm_ for MGM and David
    Begelman -- a fact that Begelman did not allow to go unnoticed.
    ... Robertson was privately humiliated by the fact that he was being
    paid less than in the past.
    
Begelman was still producing movies in 1982 when the book was written.
I don't know if he's still at it.

	While this may be true at some or even most Blockbusters, I am

ours is better than one in Atlanta.  This said, I must admit that the

I agree wholeheartedly. To paraphrase a famous film critique, "If this film

I wanted Debra Winger to die quicker!

Plan 9 is pretty bad, but it is in focus, and is well lit, except for some
horrid day-for-night scenes which lead to some funny moments. <Character
is in nighttime. Next cut, he is in daytime, and hasn't moved!>

But, seriously, Edward D. Wood Jr. tried real hard, and he has done far 
worse films. And the film does say things that a normal "good" film
couldn't have said at the time <Particularly in the monologue on the ship
towards the end>. "Orgy Of The Dead", or "Night Of The Ghouls" <a semi-
sequel to Plan 9> are much worse.

Wood died in poverty, too soon to reap the benefits of his rediscovery.

And if you think that using a doulbe for a lead actor is weird, you
should know that it is done all the time. Sometimes an actor isn't
available for a scene, or isn't hired for a long enough time to do all
the scenes. Try "Creature", which uses a double for Klaus Kinski repeatedly,
<the double is pretty obvious, just like in "Plan 9"> or "God Told Me To"
which has a double for Tony Lobianca <They did good work on this one. LoBianca
was only available at certain times, since he was doing a play at the same time.
You'll never notice LoBianca's double.>

In comparison to other films though, "Plan 9" is very tame, and entertaining.
It's not a bad film at all, in these respects. And how many films from 
the middle 50's routinely get shown at theaters today?

PS: Bela Lugosi died on the first day of filming another movie. Wood recycled 
the footage into "Plan 9". The cast included Lyle Talbot, Vampira <Maila
Nurmi> and Swedish ex-wrestler Tor Johnson.
