	6:08pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Sean T-Rex @6:07 What the.... why not? You have heard of it?
	👍 6:09pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:08 lol, yes. I know it and seen clips. Just never have really watched it.
	6:10pm dale: i like westerns like the searchers. john ford boils it down to 'white man is good, indians are bad.' you know where you stood.
	6:10pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ luka @6:08 Cousin Frank doesn't know what's what, movie-wise.
	6:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I understand Deadpool & Wolverine is opening soon.
	6:12pm Tom from Stirling: "The Big Lebowski" is a cultural touchtone film.
	6:12pm Karl: DAN 4 LYFE
	👍 6:13pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:12 Yea, but so is Airplane!
	6:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @6:11 Oh, July 26. Thought it was this week for some reason.
	6:14pm Ike: I have no interest in Horizon, but apparently Part 2 is already filmed, and Costner might be trying to film Part 3 now… (?)
	6:14pm Tom from Stirling: What did you think of the movie? Well, I didn't fall asleep
	👍 6:14pm Sean T-Rex: Well these days, 3 hour movies are out of vogue Jimmy
	6:14pm Listener Robert: No time to phone in, but a night or two ago it came out that my lack of having seen "Days of Wine and Roses" leaves me out of the loop.
	6:15pm Land Phil: Dude I tried to watch Killers of the Flower Moon and 3.5 hours was WAY too long
	6:16pm luka: i haven’t seen any of the Indy Jones’. that’s mine.
	6:16pm The Oscar: What’s baffling is they seem to be doing NO press outreach for Horizon. No press screening up here in Boston, and I’m told none in Chicago or LA.
	6:16pm dale: started to watch the first harry pooter when it came out on dvd. thought it was a stinker.
	6:17pm Tom from Stirling: Western - True Grit remake with Jeff Bridges (The Dude) is better than the original.
	6:17pm Listener Robert: Turns out I "get" a lot of my friend's TV serial "Lost" because I saw or at least know of movies from 60 years ago that a lot of younger people haven't.
	6:17pm wenzo: The books are so much better tho… and they’re not all 900 pages. They are all written by a transphobe tho -captain obvious
	6:18pm Land Phil: Pokemon is a cultural touchstone
	6:18pm Land Phil: and Garfield
	6:19pm Ike: ↳ dale @6:16 Overrated rubbish. The first 2 movies are completely unwatchable. (The books are far better, if you like that kind of thing, but already outdated.)
	👍 6:19pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Land Phil @6:18 Without doubt
	6:19pm dale: never seen space jam. surprising but true.
	6:19pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ dale @6:16 Because it is.
	6:20pm Listener Robert: OK, so what's with the snowfall of birdhouses?
	6:21pm dale: ↳ Ike @6:19 and i remember at my job that people skipped work and pulled their kids out of school to see it the day it came out.
	👍 6:21pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ dale @6:19 Are you a millennial? If not, not surprised.
	6:22pm Tom from Stirling: Garfield - Harry Potter - Bad Boys. Now thatsa gooda movie list.
	6:22pm dale: ↳ Sean T-Rex @6:21 no - old enough to get the medicare part c mail flooding my postal box.
	6:23pm Annie: I have not seen Taxi Driver
	6:23pm wenzo: I just saw Roadhouse for the first time… I guess I was missing out? 🤷🏻‍♂️
	6:23pm DanFA: I haven't seen Rocky. Don't care.
	👍 6:23pm zachary: Evening Jim. Evening listeners. Great art, Jim. I always love seeing what you are drawing. Here's a link to Wizard People, Dear Reader. I found it made the first Harry Potter movie enjoyable: en.wikipedia.org... You can find clips on YouTube with the overdub.
	6:23pm Tom from Stirling: Yeah, anyone see the new A Quiet Place movie?
	👍 6:24pm Sean T-Rex: The Aliens are already here James
	6:24pm dale: '....i will take you to rays original pizza.'
	6:25pm Ike: ↳ dale @6:19 Me neither, because it looks moronic. I’d rather be tarred and feathered for 90 minutes.
	👍 6:25pm zachary: ↳ wenzo @6:17 I have never read the books. A lot of fiction I find boring. Lots of people have enjoyed them, though. And good for them. The last fiction I read was The Plague by Albert Camus. What do you mean about JK Rowling?
	👍 6:26pm zachary: ↳ wenzo @6:23 One of Ken's favorite movies!
	👍 6:26pm Sean T-Rex: Wait, are we talking about Dreamcatcher?
	👍 6:27pm zachary: I stopped watching most movies back in the early 2000s. A few since then. I enjoy surreal or horribly tragic genres.
	6:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: I took and went to Run Lola Run last week. It was playing up in Saugerties.
	👍 6:29pm Sean T-Rex: When we discover the Aliens (cause they already here), I'd rather be in Chinatown than Harlem
	6:29pm Tom from Stirling: Cats are important, see Jonesie in "Alien"
	6:29pm Erik/VT: I haven’t really been feeling the Quiet Place movies (& both even in a theatre screening). I usually enjoy this genre. But something is missing for me “in the total delivery” 🤔 🤷‍♂️.
	👍 6:30pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:29 My cat protects me from the Spirts in the otherworld. That's why when I wake up, she is there
	6:30pm Ike: Too many movies set in NYC involve nonexistent alleys in midtown Manhattan? Are there alleys in this one?
	👍 6:30pm zachary: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @6:28 I think I have seen Run Lola Run. It looks familiar. Don't remember it if I do.
	6:30pm Erik/VT: Indeed - one significant issue for me are the aliens 👾 themselves. They don’t work for me.
	6:30pm erik: Sounds like an Airplane movie for me, I think I watched the other quiet place movies on the airplane.
	👍 6:30pm zachary: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:29 Ha! Yes. Alien is a great movie.
	6:31pm Listener Robert: Here's a list of ca. 1960 movies that if you don't know (or the books they were from), there's a lot of "Lost" you won't get: North By Northwest Ocean's 11 The Manchurian Candidate It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World Seconds The Wrong Box
	6:31pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ zachary @6:30 Alien: Romulus opens in August.
	6:31pm Erik/VT: … i wouldn’t pay them anyway … 😏
	6:31pm wenzo: Airplane’s good
	6:32pm wenzo: Never saw uhhh… Titanic… seen bits of it…
	6:32pm Eye: Enjoying the show 👍👍👍Thx Jim..
	6:33pm wenzo: I think the lesson is don’t go to Star Wars sober?
	6:33pm PaulRobeson1924: Somebody get caller some new hits of old sunshine
	6:33pm PaulRobeson1924: Quickly
	6:34pm dale: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:31 do they discuss the bonus situation?
	👍 6:34pm Sean T-Rex: I mean, I watched Star Wars almost everyday on VHS as a kid.
	6:35pm Marie in Chicago: Would be interesting to hear about movies people have seen on lsd or mushrooms
	6:35pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ dale @6:34 haha, probably not.
	👍 6:35pm Sean T-Rex: Oh, I'm the opposite. I love the trailers
	6:35pm chresti: I saw The Nutty Professor at a drive-in, when I was 5 or 6. It gave me nightmares.
	6:36pm wenzo: How about a trailer that only covers the first 5-10 minutes of the movie…
	6:36pm PaulRobeson1924: Caller is out of his mind. Call 311 for him or 618
	6:36pm wenzo: Or instead of a trailer just release an early scene
	6:36pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ chresti @6:35 funny
	6:36pm Ivan: Re no ads/clips. They did that for Hayao Miyazaki’s last film. Haven’t seen it yet
	👍 6:36pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @6:36 Maybe he thought it was Micah 's show
	6:38pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Sean T-Rex @6:36 Maybe he was trying to reach WFAN
	6:38pm PaulRobeson1924: To talk about the Mets and Rangers post season. You understand
	👍 6:38pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @6:38 hahaha, to talk to who?! Steve Summers!
	👍 6:39pm Sean T-Rex: Jim, you all about the puppets. Love it
	6:40pm common: agree with the puppet love!
	6:40pm Erik/VT: Pythons: “stand & deliver, give me ALL yer Lupins”.
	6:40pm chresti: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:36 The part where he turns into the suave Jerry Lewis from the nutty proffessor, especially freaked me out
	6:41pm Tom from Stirling: Nick Cage played a vampire in a recent movie. It's pretty good.
	6:42pm wenzo: I think I saw Bambi as a very small child but I have no memory of it
	6:43pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ chresti @6:40 I could totally see that @)) hilarious
	👍 6:43pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:41 I'll watch most things with Nick Cage. I know I'll be entertained.
	6:43pm Marie in Chicago: I read Bambi as a kid and it destroyed me. I was so upset and sad
	6:44pm dale: 'herbie the love bug part 6 - herbies revenge' where he murders avery schreiber by decapitation was particularly dark.
	6:45pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Sean T-Rex @6:43 You'll like it then.
	6:45pm wenzo: I’ve also never seen the Bodyguard
	6:45pm PaulRobeson1924: I remember
	6:45pm Sufferwords: https://www.brooklynvegan.com/off-announce-farewell-shows-film-screenings-with-fucked-up-shellac-more/
	6:46pm Erik/VT: Re Tarantino: IMNSHO, hateful 8 was/is definitely the hardest to “enjoy” (least watchable). Definitely don’t miss T’s latter Once Upon Hollywood. Big theater screen experience was the best.
	6:46pm Ike: The Bodyguard is absolutely terrible! It’s so boring!
	6:46pm PaulRobeson1924: I remember the crowd booing Tony Bennett for speaking the truth
	👍 6:46pm Sean T-Rex: Kevin Costner gets talked about but no Waterworld yet
	6:46pm Listener Robert: ↳ chresti @6:40 The part where he turns for the last time from Buddy Love to the Nutty Professor and stays silent for a long time staring into the camera -- I've never felt so much DISCOMFORT from a movie before or since. Brilliant!
	6:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: In case they're thinking of putting out a Futurama movie, I'd like to go to that.
	6:47pm chresti: ↳ Listener Robert @6:46 Right? You know!
	6:48pm Tom from Stirling: My Dinner With Andre. Good movie.
	6:48pm Erik/VT: Oh man, CARNY (1980) - so GOOD! - that is on my bucket list to see projected in a theatre before I call it a day/night! Foster, Robertson, & Busy … What’s NOT to love…?
	6:48pm dale: i've never seen that or apocalypse now.
	👍 6:48pm Sean T-Rex: It should of been based in Pittsburgh/Western PA. Those cabbies are wild. Serial killer types.
	6:48pm traven: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @6:46 What was so controversial about his remarks?
	6:49pm chresti: I never saw Midnight Express or apocalypse now
	👍 6:49pm Sean T-Rex: That was deep with the callers Vietnam reference.
	6:50pm Marie in Chicago: Sean Penn can be a real cheese ball sometimes
	6:51pm PaulRobeson1924: ALIVE SHE CRIED
	6:51pm common: midnight express is intense. brad davis i think. rip
	6:51pm chresti: I don't like seeing heads or faces blowing up
	6:53pm dale: didn't lisa simpson once reference 'the latest claptrap from norman mailer?'
	👍 6:54pm zachary: The film, Town Bloody Hall, is great: en.wikipedia.org... Town Bloody Hall is a 1979 documentary film of a panel debate between feminist advocates and activist Norman Mailer.[1] Filmed on April 30, 1971, in The Town Hall in New York City. Town Bloody Hall features a panel of feminist advocates for the women's liberation movement and Norman Mailer, author of The Prisoner of Sex (1971). Chris Hegedus and D. A. Pennebaker produced the film, which stars Jacqueline Ceballos, Germaine Greer, Jill Johnston, Diana Trilling, and Norman Mailer. The footage of the panel was recorded and released as a documentary in 1979.
	6:54pm _Ike_: There’s a hilarious old critical pan of The Bodyguard somewhere but now I can’t find it.
	6:54pm Erik/VT: new Western, curious, has anybody attended the Neo western by Viggo Mortensen “the dead don’t hurt” - supposedly good and more worthy than this epic by fellow thespian’s “horizon”.
	6:55pm Tom from Stirling: Good comments board at least.
	👍 6:56pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:55 It's a slightly more sophisticated class then the Bucci audience. lol
	👍 6:58pm Sean T-Rex: Thanks Mr. Poet! Good show!
	6:58pm Erik/VT: Oh … so No SCANNERS (Cronenberg) for you ?! Avoid The Fury as well. Hhmm this is fun … I bet there are 10 others that roll of the tongue 👅…
	6:59pm chresti: Thanks Jim!
	👍 7:00pm zachary: ↳ Sean T-Rex @6:56 Ha!

	6:46pm Erik/VT: Re Tarantino: IMNSHO, hateful 8 was/is definitely the hardest to “enjoy” (least watchable). Definitely don’t miss T’s latter Once Upon Hollywood. Big theater screen experience was the best.

	6:46pm Listener Robert: ↳ chresti @6:40 The part where he turns for the last time from Buddy Love to the Nutty Professor and stays silent for a long time staring into the camera -- I've never felt so much DISCOMFORT from a movie before or since. Brilliant!

	6:48pm Erik/VT: Oh man, CARNY (1980) - so GOOD! - that is on my bucket list to see projected in a theatre before I call it a day/night! Foster, Robertson, & Busy … What’s NOT to love…?
	6:48pm dale: i've never seen that or apocalypse now.
	👍 6:48pm Sean T-Rex: It should of been based in Pittsburgh/Western PA. Those cabbies are wild. Serial killer types.
	6:48pm traven: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @6:46 What was so controversial about his remarks?

	👍 6:54pm zachary: The film, Town Bloody Hall, is great: en.wikipedia.org... Town Bloody Hall is a 1979 documentary film of a panel debate between feminist advocates and activist Norman Mailer.[1] Filmed on April 30, 1971, in The Town Hall in New York City. Town Bloody Hall features a panel of feminist advocates for the women's liberation movement and Norman Mailer, author of The Prisoner of Sex (1971). Chris Hegedus and D. A. Pennebaker produced the film, which stars Jacqueline Ceballos, Germaine Greer, Jill Johnston, Diana Trilling, and Norman Mailer. The footage of the panel was recorded and released as a documentary in 1979.
	6:54pm _Ike_: There’s a hilarious old critical pan of The Bodyguard somewhere but now I can’t find it.
	6:54pm Erik/VT: new Western, curious, has anybody attended the Neo western by Viggo Mortensen “the dead don’t hurt” - supposedly good and more worthy than this epic by fellow thespian’s “horizon”.
	6:55pm Tom from Stirling: Good comments board at least.
	👍 6:56pm Sean T-Rex: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:55 It's a slightly more sophisticated class then the Bucci audience. lol
	👍 6:58pm Sean T-Rex: Thanks Mr. Poet! Good show!
	6:58pm Erik/VT: Oh … so No SCANNERS (Cronenberg) for you ?! Avoid The Fury as well. Hhmm this is fun … I bet there are 10 others that roll of the tongue 👅…
