Walt Disney was a homephobe. He fired Tommy Kirk just because he was gay. It was one of the last things he did in his life.
I'm surprised you, a gay person, disregard this.
Smartest and best decision coming from Sony this year. Now, it's sure to be an Oscar contender.
And this is not the first time a movie has done this. When Viva Villa! was being made in 1934, Lee Tracy was supposed to be playing as Johnny Sykes. But he was caught urinating on Mexican military...
None of the Embassy shows from 1985 to 1988 ever set foot inside ABC (now Prospect Studios) on Prospect/Talmadge. I know, cause I looked at various tickets from those years (i.e. Who's the Boss? and Married... with Children) and they all said "Sunset Gower". And Embassy shows were taping at...
Of all those, I think The Alvin Show is the most readily available among collectors, with all episodes circulating, and a few of them were released on DVD recently.
I'd buy it on DVD, since I loved the 80's cartoon growing up. (still do)
Also, one episode to watch for is the third one of the season, "Trial by Prejudice". It featured Susan Gailey as Rosie. Anyone who is familiar with Roman Polanski's notorious (and I mean notorious) sex scandal from 40 years ago will know that she is the mother of Samantha Geimer (nee Gailey)...
If you actually do your research (and by that, I mean don't listen to anything the likes of Don Lemon, Judd Apatow, or Gloria Allred say), you'll know that a lot of his accusers have already been proven liars. But the media won't talk about that. And also that a lot of his accusers have...
You know, part of me wonders just how common the 1967 logo really was originally. I've come upon several old prints of 1967-1968 UA films, and yet they either had no logo, or a newer one (usually 1981 or 1982). Usually, everytime I find that logo, it was from either some of the current, or from...
The original 1967 United Artists logo, as seen on the original North American prints, is being restored, as reported by MisterLime on the Blu-Ray forum.

Why is The Dukes of Hazzard not okay, but Smokey and the Bandit is okay?
Why is The Dukes of Hazzard not okay, but the episodes of Knight Rider, where they prominently featured the Confederate Flag, is okay? What is Warner Bros. afraid of? Somebody, anybody, please answer this question.
I know Jack P is only interested in the CBS season, so I doubt he'll be picking this up. From what I remember, he felt the Showtime series used too much freedom to do and say whatever they wanted to (obviously, they were now on commercial-free cable), and became too much of a political soapbox...
