Apparently the Urban Affairs branch at Metro Hall is doomed because people and students in the vicinity don\u2019t like reading new books, and would prefer to travel to Bloor & Yonge at the Reference Library for all their needs.<\/p>\n
A large percentage of the electorate who voted for Rob Ford should feel satisfied one car formerly attached to that horrid gravy train is being scrapped for its metal, and those dribblings of beef that have besmirched the rails of progress are no longer greased with dangerously slippery Bisto.<\/p>\n
Kids have lost their heads licking the rails for extra protein, so this is good news.<\/p>\n
If this is the first wave of anti-downtown measures, perhaps the city of Toronto should become a free city. It sort of worked for Danzig<\/a>, although we should hold a plebiscite so the GTA can hear F.U. in crisp DTS Audio Master clarity.<\/p>\n Just uploaded are a pair of reviews for fifties 3D films no one cares about but should, because they\u2019re fun, and ought to be among the first wave of classic films studios should released on 3D-HD, either via broadcast or on BR.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll scribble and blather about the validity of the multiple home 3D systems on the market shortly, but if anything good comes from this new format being badly marketed and sold to consumers without a consistent standard among manufacturers, it should be the outright restoration \/ rescue of 3D films languishing and disintegrating in vaults. Now\u2019s the time, bean counters, to dust off those negatives and surviving prints and get these movies back into circulation before the people that want them die off.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not a joke. Each generation cares less for classic films, old-time stars, and classic TV series, and that\u2019s why the on-demand DVD-Rs are being adopted by several studios. People still want them, but there\u2019s less of them, and that\u2019s why those titles sell for the unnecessary price of $19.95 when they should be $9.95.<\/p>\n The potential of these actors actually appearing in this configuration may be pure B.S.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Inferno<\/a><\/strong> [M<\/a>] (1953) is one of the better 3D films because, like Alfred Hitchcock, director Roy Ward Baker used the format to place us on the sidelines, as poor Robert Ryan desiccates onscreen under the broiling sun.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a great Fox film has been screened on TV at one time or another in crappy anaglyph 3D, but it is<\/em> available in Spain (flat) on DVD.<\/p>\n Spain has the world\u2019s biggest classic movie store, where they sell movies on real DVDs, and I want to visit this magical place and do the Dance of Joy & Gratitude, since Fox doesn\u2019t care about its other unreleased classics.<\/p>\n Witness the Anniversary box that contains nothing new (okay, it has Cavalcade<\/strong>, which should\u2019ve been released years ago<\/em> on DVD when more of its target audience was still alive), nor the 3-CD tribute box that reissues things collectors already have.<\/p>\n Also reviewed is Dangerous Mission<\/a><\/strong> [M<\/a>] (1954), an Irwin Allen-produced suspenser with Piper Laurie ooing at Victor Mature\u2019s muscles as he wrestles electrical cables because there are no tigers are Glacier National Park.<\/p>\n Oh look! You can spot the villain before seeing the movie!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n You think I\u2019m on crack?<\/p>\n Read the review.<\/p>\n This gem played at 2nd World 3D Film Expo in Hollywood, back in 2006, and \u00a0the Dial-Up trailer link on this page<\/a> still works (albeit at postage stamp size).<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/mondomark.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/Inferno1953_poster-193x300.gif\" "\\"Inferno1953_poster\\"")
