From DR Rodzinski:

Quote
Tonight I had to endure a hellish HOA annual zoom meeting. I won’t bore you with the details of the unrest and nastiness. You would not believe me anyway.

Considering what we deal with here I have no problem believing you.  My stories are likely worse than yours ;D

Am I correct that a Coffee Crisp is a bit like coffee flavored honeycomb?

I heard from the Vixter that it is raining hard but they are not in the direct path of the hurricane so feel confident they’ll be ok

I didn't think so.

I have hied me thence and returned.

In today's mail, a legitimate, Disney-issued CD of "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" soundtrack by John Williams.

Sounds like a ho-hum comment, I know, but it's an accomplishment inasmuch as Disney only printed a modest amount of the CDs in its first run and sold all very quickly.  Little did they know that thousands of Williams fans would raise hell.  There have been two subsequent re-dos by Disney after initially saying the limited run would not be re-done.

Enjoy.

Q for BK:
Regarding special movie previews, Harvey doesn’t get into comment cards much. Were there always comment cards or people talking to the audience after the films? Or sometimes was the goal just to watch an audience’s general reaction? I’m curious if there was some sort of feedback generally asked of the preview audiences, or could you enjoy previews and never get asked your opinion at all?

My experience with previews, and I saw as many as Preview Harvey, was that comment cards were a rarity. I actually can't ever remember seeing a comment card before or after a preview. If the filmmakers and studio were there, they'd gauge the audience reaction. The only time I remember huge amounts of redos being done based on bad previews were The Sandpiper and Return of the Pink Panther. The latter had a huge number of fixes and reshoots after the preview I saw. Same with The Sandpiper.

Mel Brooks did it very differently. He'd screen the film for an audience on the Fox lot. I saw three or four of his movies that way because I was friends with his assistant. I don't recall any heavy changes, though, just trims and stuff. The fun part was there was no music in the films when we saw those screenings.

I like that there wasn't any music in those previews.  Did you miss the music?

I worked more previews than I attended and don't recall handing out comment cards.

I was cold last night and didn't sleep well.

Question for Bruce:

Did you see a preview for "Young Frankenstein" on the Fox lot?  If so, is it true there was a backstage scene (during the theater presentation of the Monster) in which Dr. Frankenstein sees Igor in a tux without a hump and asks him what happened to his hump?  Allegedly, Igor said, "Never with tails".

;D

They are promising more rain tomorrow.

There's one big problem with that statement.

We can't have "more" if we haven't had any yet.

I hope you got "more" rain.
