Subject: Gremlins 2...Question....

I know it wasn't the greatest movie, but did anyone out there see Gemlins 2...
The Next Batch....?
   I have seen it more than once, and only remember seeing one scene one of
the times I have seen it....There is one scene where the Gremlins ruin the
movie, and the screen goes blank...then Hulk Hogan tells the Gremlins to behave
 and the movie continues....
               Am I insane or did that scene actually only exist on cable...?

There is a trial scene near the beginning of "And Now For Something
Completely Different" where the publisher of the Hungarian phrasebook
is made to answer for his whateverthehellitwas ("I wish to plead
incompetence!"--or was that line only in the TV version?).

While we're on TV, there was a TV movie made of John Henry Faulk's
book, "Fear on Trial," about his libel suit against the people who
had blacklisted him.  It was fairly forgettable, except that George
C. Scott played Louis Nizer, and Scott's always fun to watch.

some good choices among recent releases for plebian escapism.  I find

I'm compiling a list of films about exploring frontiers in honor of the
500th anniversary of Columbus. At first I was limiting it to real events
but I've expanded it to include other, more speculative films such as
"2001" and "Quest for Fire." The main criteria is that it focus on breaking
new ground, literally or figuratively speaking, about "boldly going where no
one has gone before." Thanks in advance for any comments, corrections,
suggestions, etc.

Thanks for the clarification, Michael, about Voyager's incorrect 'scope

understanding that the "anamorphic" widescreen process does _not_ involve
masking the 35mm frame, but instead a lens that compresses the image into
that frame, then later (a comparable lens?) expands it for playback?

Liam claims that my arguement that most men get to ride of into
the sunset is "a sweeping generality" - Yes, it is but it's still
true - I qualify it even more - There are plenty of movies where men
have committed crimes equal to or worse than those committed by T&L and
they get to "ride of into the sunset" - One example is any Arnold
movie like COMMANDO - how many innocent bystanders got hurt or died,
how many stores did he rob? Just about any of those "tough guy who
takes the law into his own hands because the system is to bad" films
allows the "hero" to have a happy ending - Now in the most simple
terms thats what T&L do - But they can't get away with it - I argue
that they can't get away with it because they're women.

Perhaps the point being made was that presidential candidates should
aspire to a higher level of discourse than National Enquirer reporters.

It may be true that ad hominem remarks and dirty tricks are not unique
to our time, but must we always pay homage to a barbarous past in order
to excuse the indignities of the present?

I must've missed what you wrote, Joe, but thanks for the correction.  I'll
try to keep your observation in mind next time I watch the film.  Jeff Clark

   I saw Light Sleeper on video. I was disappointed with the
movie. I was expecting a better movie, but none the less it is
saved by Daffoe. It is a intresting enough approach to drug
dealing. It does not compare in quality to Drugstore Cowboy which
deals with the underworld of addicts far more realistically. Any

The movie is pretty weird, though enjoyable for it. I thought that the
the movie's atmosphere was a bit like Terry Gillam's excellent 'Brazil',
especially the Troglodytes. There is one scene, however, that is
copied straight from "The Drowning Pool" (it starred Paul Newman and
featured a youthful Melanie Griffith as a spaced-out babe....I think).
                  If you enjoyed 'Delicatessen', Penny, I think you'll
also enjoy 'A Boy and His Dog', featuring an equally youthful Mr. Melanie
Griffith (Don Johnson) . This movie is set in a post-holocaust desert and
deals with a boy's (Johnson) attempts to survive. The dog conversations
(it talks !!) with the Boy are done in voice-over, and the Dog's words of
wisdom keeps the Boy out of trouble (for a while anyway). If you could
imagine a situation where the whole cast and crew of "Lassie" dropped
acid and made an episode while totally 'out-of-it', this would be
the result. Incidently, if anyone has any details of the director/writer
of this film, let me know.

Anjani:

I find that I enjoy BD more in the strong, bitchy roles.  So, my recommend-
ations would be "Jezebel," in which Bette makes Scarlet O'Hara look like
Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, and "The Three Faces of Eve," opposite Anne
Baxter, maybe?  Although, you begin to sympathize with her character a
little at the end, it's damn hard because of how truly bitchy she is for
most of the movie.  Check 'em out!
