Listener comments!
	7:01pm creeeatura: Hi everybody!
	7:03pm common: ello! missing in action 2...hee.
	7:03pm dale: bob newhart was in a war picture? whodathunk?
	7:04pm common: that's what I was thunking, dale.
	7:05pm ultradamno: He delivered the button-down comedy that helped win the war.
	7:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...unless he woke up in bed w/ Suzanne Pleshette & it was all a bad national nightmare...
	7:07pm dale: hee hee...the 'motor pool driving instructor' bit always kills.
	7:08pm Michael 98145: love this Morricone track
	7:13pm mb: hello alls. sounding great on the ol' transistor radio.
	7:15pm dale: bob newhart mst have gotten the part because don rickles was unavailable.
	7:17pm dale: god forbid there is zero pro-war sentiment in this country.
	7:17pm JakeGould: War seemed so much better in the 1950s.
	7:22pm dale: war seemed so much groovier in the 70s.
	7:23pm JakeGould: Bob Newhart’s ability to pretend he was talking on the phone to someone else tricked the enemy for just long enough so the rest of the troops could be saved.
	7:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...whose thinking SammyDavis?...
	7:24pm JakeGould: @dale: Yeah, all that PTSD and Vietnam and heroin. Anyone else remember that episode of “Baretta” where he was trying to help a junkie friend and kept on feeding him chocolate and orange juice?
	7:25pm JakeGould: “Where Eagles Dare” is one of those double/triple-cross films where it took me two viewings and a couple of days to completely figure out the plot.
	7:25pm dale: "imagine adolf hitler and winston churchill having a phone conversation....and it might go.....a little something....like this. 'adolf - adolf baby!'"
	7:25pm Zetti: I gotta revisit some of these films especially now for the music.
	7:26pm andrewb: God dammit, I was gonna say where eagles dare. This film was played annually in Britain. Clint with two machine guns YEAH! but the Misfits song is better
	7:26pm ultradamno: I think I forgot the part where The Dirty Dozen all got "excited" together in a human tangle.
	7:27pm dale: the movies channel (5.2) played some recently but they only seemed to be ones with george kennedy in them.
	7:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...*who's ...LeeMarvin & JamesCoburn...the Yin & Yang of the Universe...AlanWatts had a thing about it ...ok - I'm no good @ WarMovie chat...
	7:27pm JakeGould: Even though two ska bands covered it, I think it’s amazing “Guns of Navarone” got so muck ska-mileage.
	7:29pm JakeGould: …got so MUCH ska-mileage.
	7:31pm andrewb: I honestly can't think of a truly bad ska song.
	7:34pm andrewb: compared with rock, country ,disco where i can think of hundreds
	7:35pm JakeGould: I think if WFMU had a 24/7 ska stream that would be something.
	7:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I always think there should be a 24/7 of every Genre or Thang - just dial it in when you want it...For bad - there's '3rd Wave' ska like 'NoDoubt'...but nevermind that...
	7:40pm JakeGould: Will say this: David Niven doesn’t look like he could throw a grenade let alone be a demolition’s expert in “The Guns of Navarone.” Him and Bob Newhart should have made a film: “The Inconceivables”
	7:44pm andrewb: I wasn't really thinking ska revival. Plenty of duds there though No doubt were pretty solid. always felt fishbone opened and closed the door there
	7:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: People tell me Fishbone would hit the stage tossing their instruments to each other all the way across... Don't know why don't hear more early Shadows - it's like UK Ventures - kewl as hell...
	7:53pm ultradamno: Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
	7:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Majestic & Eerie @ turns this Hermann - great score for great film.
	7:57pm dale: david niven was everywhere for a decade. then he died, of course.
	7:58pm JakeGould: Yeah, dying can stop you being everywhere like that.
	8:00pm JakeGould: Imagine David Niven and Vincent Price arm wrestling. Ain’t that a sight!
