    HBO's Carnivale

    I'm just hoping that indeed Carnivale DOES return to HBO, if only for a full length movie special or something like that. I'd love to see a new season, but such is the life of rumors that I don't hold out much hope...

    Thanks Doran. I saw your avatar and just wanted to mention that I'm a fourth generation Californian, born in Berkeley at Alta Bates!

    HBO's Carnivale

    I heard from a friend out in LA that there's talk of reviving Carnivale as a series on HBO. I'm sure these kinds of rumors pop up from time to time about a lot of shows, but just thought I'd see if anyone on the forum has heard this or any other good gossip related to the show.... Anyone?

    Your most non-vintage preference or attributes ...

    The most un-vintage thing about me is my love of science fiction and gadgets. Then I saw Bladerunner with its homage to noir and it all came together for me.

    What kind of noir do you prefer?

    Blade Runner is noir. Not current, but futuristic noir.

    Blade Runner remastered

    Just placed my pre-order on Amazon. It was listed as being released in December of this year. Two versions; The "Ultimate Edition" and the four disc version, both released at the same time. The Ultimate is the same as the four disc, just dressed up with more packaging and twice the price.....

    Blade Runner remastered

    My favorite movie of all time. I for one thought the original with voiceover to be the best. HATED the "director's" cut without Ford's VO.

    Valkyrie

    I think in regards to this film, happiness will be having VERY low expectations. I'm sure the clothes will be doing most of the acting anyway....

    SHOOTER

    Stephen Hunter wrote the book Point of Impact on which the movie Shooter was loosely based. Of course the book was MUCH better. I really wish the producers had retained Bob Lee Swagger's southern heritage. You owe it to yourself to read the books and those based on the character of Bob...

    "Mad Men" on AMC (US) - (Spoilers Within)

    I'm not so sure it was exaggerated. I spoke to my uncle, a former regional VP of the old AT&T in NY and who was himself considered progressive back in the day, and he said that he really felt for the women in the 50's-60's because the sexism was pretty blatant and rude especially the higher up...

    "Mad Men" on AMC (US) - (Spoilers Within)

    I watched it with my girlfriend and we really got a kick out of it. My girlfriend is such a strong, independent woman ( headed up her own ad agency for years), that I couldn't resist heckling her with the sexism we were hearing from the show. *Sigh* Those were the days....;-) I'll duck now!

    Mad Men Tonight on AMC is the premiere episode of Mad Men, a new series about advertising taking place in New York during the 50's. My Tivo is programmed, how 'bout yours?

    The flying scene from Out of Africa...

    Hemingway, regarding your earlier post about the title of the bio, I'm wondering if you're versed in mythology...ICARUS flew too close to the sun, and his wings melted and he fell to earth. The analogy with Finch-Hatton makes mythological sense.

    The flying scene from Out of Africa...

    P.S. Hemingway, I also put in an order with Amazon for the bio of Hatton. Looks like a good read.

    The flying scene from Out of Africa...

    Funny, I JUST re-watched this film again after many years. It's held up wonderfully. Then of course I had to put in an order for some new khakis!

    a moonshiners hat

    Good Grief! Why would any self-respecting moonshiner get a permit? Anywho, anyone know when this movie is comin' out?
