:D There are no bridges near me. Coincidentally, the main guy in "Queen of Hearts" jumps off a bridge.

Re: How are colors boosted on different formats of MPI?

Yes, early Technicolor had bright colours and bright lighting. I saw documentaries where they said that when the British used Technicolor, they tried to make more natural colours - and the makers of Technicolor weren't happy about it. They wanted super-bright colours. But 70's/early 80's film is com...

Re: How are colors boosted on different formats of MPI?

Mad Buck Kudo I can understand the nostalgia aspect of watching them as you originally did, but for me that would involve watching a lot of them on a 12 inch black and white TV as my family did not have a color TV until the mid 1980s. As Pahonu confirmed they were shot on film so the originals were...

Re: How are colors boosted on differnt formats of MPI?

I prefer faded colours on older shows. I've found that when colours are enhanced (the annoying term "make colours pop!") it destroys the feeling I had when originally viewing it back in the original time period. It never looked like that - even on the latest colour TVs at the time. Though I usually ...

Re: HODINKEE article on Magnum’s watches

Thanks Styles for the article link. I now ignore inconsistencies with closeups, knowing that it's usually second unit filming, not using main actors or props. If it's not the actual actors wearing or using certain props, I don't consider it "official". Although I like certain styles of watches I see...

Re: The Tom Selleck Thread

I believe I mentioned this in another thread but the creator of Sledge Hammer, Alan Spencer, is a friend of mine. Actually, he’s a friend of a friend, but we’ve kept in touch since we first met over 25 years ago. He mostly works cleaning up scripts for production these days, but he also directed an...

Re: Hawaii Five-O: Any Fans?

Dang guys! I don’t care for the super hero movies or hobbits or dragons either, but there’s still some interesting stuff out there. Kind of sound like the cranky old neighbor telling us to get off his lawn. You guys are both younger than me!... I think. :lol: No, you're both younger than me. Now ge...

Re: Hawaii Five-O: Any Fans?

How many Spidermans are we on now? Wasn't Tobey Maguire playing the part just like 10 years ago? We've had at least 2 other new actors since then. Don't you need to give it at least a few decades before attempting a reboot? And why do we care about any of this??? Ant-Man, Toad-Man, Fungus-Man. Let ...

Re: Hawaii Five-O: Any Fans?

I think Hawaii Five-O has the same problem as other series, like The Streets of San Francisco - a little too much harsh realism. I think TV should be an escape from tedious reality, not submersion into it. I get enough realism in real life. Haha, that's funny because compared to the "harsh" shows t...

I think he just screams though: ARRGH not NOOOO :lol: It looks like you're right. Why did I think he said, "NOOO!"? 9UY1d7xyfJk Thanks again, T.Q. :D How do you make the gifs?

Thanks for the gifs, T.Q.
