  1. I'm starting to think that going to university for a film studies degree was a waste of time. Clearly I got all the educatin' i needed on telly as a child. i mean, where else but San Antonio ...? Gamera flicks, Mae West, WC Fields ... Crazy-ass Toho stuff like Frankenstein ... And Morituri!!! WOW!

  2. Also, don't forget the physics lesson we got from the Amazing Colossal Man!
    Seriously, I didn't like the W.C. Fields' movies back then but watching these clips now...pretty genius.
