Charlton Heston's last flight.

He takes off in a Hellcat, he flys to the target in a Dauntless, he attacks the target in a Helldiver, he crashes on the aircraft carrier in a Panther.

For those who don't know that's a late-war fighter, an early-war dive bomber, a late-war dive bomber and a Korean-War JET!!!

Coarse you have,.....silly Me!

NP - End of Evangelion (I finally ordered the legit. CD! No more badly compressed MP3's!)

Also, Check out ALIENS when the ripped in half 'Bishop' reaches out to save Newt when the air lock is opened, You can quite clearly see his lower body reaching out!!

Raiders of the Lost Ark
When the plane flies out of San Francisco, Fort Point is shown as being underneath the right-side of the bridge. This makes it look like the plane is flying into the city. Perhaps the negative got flipped?

NP: Huey Lewis: Sports - "Walking On A Thin Line" ****/***** (I need a break from scores right now)

Your a News fan too!!

I didn't know there were any of us left!

Yup! I'll take good, old-fashioned rock & roll any day of the week over the Ricky Martin/Backstreet Boys/N'Sync/Britney Spears/etc. crap.

Also bumped into him (quite literally) about ten years ago, at Disneyland. We were coming out of a store in TomorrowLand, and I nearly walked right into him. (Of course, little me I had no idea who he was at the time - "He sings THE POWER OF LOVE in "Back to the Future" my dad said - but my mom sure was excited). But I got to shake his hand, then he took off walking again with the park employee he had been talking with. (I still have no idea what he was doing there).

Huey Lewis and the News - those these guys know how to make music.

Dantoris and Dave,

I absolutely love Huey Lewis and the News, one of the greatest rock bands ever. I think their best album is "Fore!"

(Okay, there is some good 90's rock, but not as much as the 80's)

Thought Id drag this old thread up

Re: The Thing

Notice when the Doc get's both his arms bit off, they come away about 3 inches or so from where the teeth plunge in

Edited to add :

Sorry Pete, don't know why this OT came up here?

1. in Giant Claw, the really bad B horror film of the 50s, you see a F-86 Starfighter fighting the bird and the bird grabs it and its a Dart F-106, not even close to the same plane. LOL>
2. in Objective Burma, 1945 war epic, in many scenes you see them shooting a 30 cal water cooled machinegun, only problem is at times it sounds like a BAR-browning automatic rifle, LOL.
3. in First to Fight, the 1967 Chad Everett Marine film about Guadalcanal and later battles in Pacific, the Japanese soldiers are charging with rubber bayonets wobbling on their weapons.
4. in Kings of the Sun, you see them fighting with plastic swords and cardboard shields early in the film
5. in King Solomons Mines sequel, you see James EArl Jones with a plastic ax and so forth
6. in Midway, mixing planes all the time. besides using the Tora, Tora, Tora footage and showing Pearl Harbor scenes at Midway, you see them mixing the dive bombers, torpedo planes and fighters up a lot. For example a two seater torpedo plane is shot down, when it hits the water its a fighter with one seat. LOL>
7. in Giant Claw, the B-25 is hanging on strings chasing the bird, which is also on wires
8. in Giant Claw, when bird is flying, he is hanging on wires in front of a big white sheet with clouds and sky projected onto it.
9. in Comancheros, John Wayne film about Texas in 1846, wrong rifles and wrong sounds, they did not have winchesters yet, all wrong all way around. No research done on this 1961 film. Totally wrong.

It is the same one John......it's also the same as 'your' post about 15 posts above, ah well, it is 6 years old

I'd love to see that old bag o' cheese the Giant Claw again, it's been far too long since they showed this on terrestrial.

Yes, it was way back there.

That Too Late the Hero really cracks me up. I like the zig=zag business at the end but it is a silly film. They follow the wires and kill the commander and then are able to evade 500 Japanese running all around. Its really ridiculous. But the scene at the end, everytime someone gets ready to shoot them either a mortar rounds lands on his head or a bullet gets him in the eye just as he is getting aim on one of them. LOL. Thats some crack shooting from three thousand yards, huh? LOL>

It Terror from Beyond Space is a fav with Marshall Thompson of Daktari TV show. The monster throws them around like a rag doll and drains their fluids. He uses his head as a battering ram on the spaceship doors.

Another one that is really bad but so laughable is the Snow Creature with Bill Phipps and Paul Langdon. They used lots of stock footage of climbing scenes over and over in it. The monster wore that bulky suit with the zipper on it and the big gloves and they showed the same scenes over and over of him going into and out of the shadows in LA. Saved a lot of money on the film.
