| 1106 | Article | Vaporman87 | The Reading Rainbow Kickstarter campaign (for a web series of the show - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/readingrainbow/bring-reading-rainbow-back-for-every-child-everywh) is going nuts. Well over $2 million dollars now, with 30 days to go. That's over $1 million OVER the goal, with oodles of time remaining. Cool. | May 30, 2014 |  | |
| 113 | Video | Vaporman87 | I remember watching this for the first time as a kid and thinking how amazingly awesome it would be to have such a thing in a pond behind my house so I could scare my friends with it, pretending it was my pet. | The Quest - Opening Scene | Jan 02, 2013 | |
| 1080 | Article | Vaporman87 | I was indeed a fan of Bob's. He was a great actor and by all accounts a decent fellow. These passings are a sober reminder that, though we may live separate lives in completely different cultures, we all share the same fate... even those "larger than life" stars. He will be greatly missed. | Farewell Bob Hoskins | May 06, 2014 | |
| 1081 | Article | Fulton4V | Will miss you Bob. Thanks you for all the cool movies. | Farewell Bob Hoskins | May 07, 2014 | |
| 1086 | Article | DoctorRyan | Who Framed Roger Rabbit, will always be one of my top movies of all time. He will be sorely missed. | Farewell Bob Hoskins | May 19, 2014 | |
| 1088 | Article | Vaporman87 | This film was all I ever knew of The Hobbit for decades. I knew of no book. Just this movie. And it always left a big impression on me. The style and animation was so well done, beyond what Rankin/Bass had done in the past. The voice acting, especially for Gandalf, was just superb. For me, that voice will always be Gandalf's. Not that of old man Magneto. And the music... it was haunting. I'll never forget the sound of some of those songs for as long as I live. | Doctor Ryan Presents: The Hobbit (1977) | May 20, 2014 | |
| 1089 | Article | echidna64 | Much like Vaporman, this has been the definitive Hobbit movie for me as well. I greatly prefer their version of Gollum, Bilbo, Gandalf, Smaug, Elrond, etc. essentially the whole lot. And yes, the music is a big part of the film and it sets the mood throughout (which is usually tense). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPkqjc23yqs The animation is gorgeous, my only gripe is the kaleidoscope effect they use to show death (you know it when you see it) and the battle of the five armies is lazily dots and scribbles fighting each other. Other than that the Hobbit is awesome! No other medium has captured the tone and narrative structure so perfectly. This is the version that I will be showing my kids. | Doctor Ryan Presents: The Hobbit (1977) | May 20, 2014 | |
| 1091 | Article | Vaporman87 | I must say I was unaware this film existed. I only knew of the Marlon Brando version. Even so, it was never a subject that much interested me. I think, in theory, it should make for a really great film. But to me I have yet to see the potential of it truly realized... and it seems that holds true here as well if I take your word for it. | The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977) | May 20, 2014 | |
| 1092 | Article | DoctorRyan | Yeah, I was pretty disappointed with it. But then again, I always try to recommend for people to see movies first hand and form their own opinion. That's what makes movies so great!! The discussions and debating that come from it. | The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977) | May 20, 2014 | |
| 115 | Video | Mr Magic | The country singer bumpers were my favorite ones. | After These Messages - ABC Bumpers | Jan 03, 2013 | |
