Somebody mentioned earlier in this thread about bringing back Robert Osborne's remarks and/or interviews. Well, last night, they did bring back his interview with Mitzi Gaynor for "The Joker is Wild". Unfortunately, they didn't show the movie in its widescreen OAR instead had this VistaVision...

The setup hasn't changed, but unfortunately, they changed the opening sequence of "Noir Alley". I'm pretty sure fans of this weekly program are going to be very vocal with their criticism of that particular change.

I'm waiting to see how much of Eddie Muller's setup on "Noir Alley" has changed or not.

Reggie, I watched "The Searchers" many times in my youth before I even got what the true meaning of that closing shot. It wasn't until I was in college back in the 1970's, that the tiny light bulb in my pea brain finally turned on.

Those people need to take a longer look at that film's ending. Without question it has meaning that Ethan Edwards isn't a hero and is a social outcast which is why he never enters the house like the others. The closing of the door says it all!

Then take it up with TCM as we don't discuss politics here!

Alright, lets stop now as this discussion is becoming too political especially with terms like "woke".

And, I felt they did a great job at it so I guess it depends on the person watching the concept.

The issue with the Chan movies over on Fox had more to do with at that time, a certain wife of Fox's owner than anything Takei has done. TCM is trying to expand their audience beyond you, I and those like us because it's the only way they can stay viable in the future. If you don't like how...

For you, as I think these cosmetic changes aren't meant for our demographic group. :D

What we don't know is how much Warner is charging these cable companies such as Comcast or even DirecTV or DISH. I know for a fact that Disney charges a bunch for ESPN and same is true for these companies that own some Regional Sports Networks like YES.

There is no big deal except it got people to talk about the channel which probably was their real purpose.

I didn't take it that way, but that's fair if you have those sentiments.

I don't quite understand that sentiment.

If that happens then I can see the following happening and we thought Frankie Baby was in trouble:

Well, it's the first of September! :rolleyes:

So?

Personally, I don't worry about things I can't control. Again, I think it's "much ado about nothing".

Man, you guys are thinking negatively when TCM has hinted it's going to be an improvement. Taking the Warner catalog from TCM isn't an improvement.

I have a feeling it's going to be "much ado about nothing", but at least they got us speculating about it.

I wouldn't mind them bringing more current actors and/or filmmakers to provide before and after commentary.

What's that old saying "you prepare for the worst and hope for the best".

I'm not going to speculate, but if they're trying to improve then playing commercials isn't doing that!

It's funny how everybody is assuming the worst with this email.

Yeah, I received the same email.
