In Toy Story 2 (1999), Jessie, after meeting Woody, exclaims “Sweet mother of Abraham Lincoln!” This is a reference to Tom Hanks, the voice of Woody, being related to the president through Lincoln's mother.

I noticed there are a lot of things like that-the Binford tool box-a reference to Tim Allen's show Home Improvement. I think it was the bear who made a reference to F.A.O. Schwarz, which was the store in the movie Big starring Tom Hanks. I'm sure there are others.

I bought the movie because it is one of my absolutely all-time favorites.

We were watching at my SIL and she asked if I wanted the subtitles on. I told her it didn't matter because I know every line by heart anyway.

Hulu just debuted a six-part series called "McCartney 3,2,1" where cool record producer Rick Rubin (who has produced everybody from the Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Geto Boys, and Run-DMC to Johnny Cash, Donovan and Tom Petty) interviews (or rather, mostly listens while McCartney talks) Paul McCartney. It's filmed in a very atmospheric way. It's great. Even at this late date McCartney oozes charisma and coolness. A must see!

I bought a CD many, many moons ago called Pure Moods and it has that song on it. I heard the song on that CD before I saw the movie so I didn't realized that it was from the movie. I just knew that I loved the song. (BTW the Pure Moods is an EXCELLENT album. I HIGHLY recommend it. You would like it-it has Onya & Tubular Bells and other great tunes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure_Moods    I have the 1997 re-release version.)

Half liked it. Not trying to give any of the storyline away, firstly it took me a while to appreciate it was a black comedy, secondly, the film involves a meteor heading towards earth with a 100% impact, and it was made interesting when with the non-believers, etc. to compare it with the pandemic of today, and thirdly, I loved the ending...

As a longtime fan of the three main Lucille Ball TV series (I Love Lucy, The Lucy Show, Here's Lucy) I am wondering what this sudden resurgence in interest in the 70 year old history of the lives of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz is. First "Being The Ricardos", now this. I won't watch "Being The Ricardos", by the way. I don't like fictionalized accounts, played by actors, of actual figures from recent history. Especially figures that I am a fan of. I didn't watch the "I Walk The Line" movie about Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash for the same reason. I'd rather watch the plentiful footage of the actual people.

I'm just thinking, perhaps the renewed interest is because the personal and professional lives of Lucy and Desi were so intertwined, and they were a married couple who also PLAYED a married couple on TV. Lucille Ball even had a baby (Desi Arnaz Jr) the same day  the episode where the  fictional Lucy Ricardo gave birth to "Little Ricky" aired. Up to that point the most watched TV episode in the short history of TV. Shortly thereafter, Lucy and the real Desi Jr. appeared on the cover of "TV Guide".  Many people thought the child actor playing "Little Ricky" was the actual son of the Arnaz's. This you-never-know-what's-real-and-what-isn't, hall of mirrors type thing perfectly suits today's postmodern, post-reality world.

We probably won't want Being the Ricardos and yeah, I haven't seen I Walk The Line either.

I can't say that I am a big Lucy fan. (She was awful in Mame. They should have never cast her in that role. The show didn't even mentioned that movie-but they did mention Wildcat.) I like the fact that there was audio tapes of Lucy & Desi pretty much telling their own story-in their own words. Like I said it was very well done.

I was telling Carlos that I think they were trying to capture the magic of I Love Lucy first with The Lucy Show, followed by Here's Lucy and finally Life With Lucy-which should never have been done (it was cancelled after only 8 eps). And with each entity they lost more and more of that magic.

Oh yes, there was a decline in quality with each successive show. But, like many others I have heard from, I "grew up with" the 1960s Lucy Show and have a fondness for it. It seemed GREAT to me then. The other thing I like is the utter "60s-ness" of it. The first couple of seasons very much reflected the Kennedy-era early 60s (the Lucy character actually visits the White House in one episode and an actor is employed to imitate Kennedy's voice of screen), and in later seasons the more psychedelic mid-60s (she even hangs out with the hippies on sunset strip in one episode). Of course, as I was "growing up" with "The Lucy Show", "I Love Lucy" was in endless reruns, so I was experiencing that simultaneously. And "Here's Lucy" which started in 1968, basically just picked up exactly where "The Lucy Show" left off. I'm not sure people realize now just how dominant Lucille Ball was in the 1960s. She even won two successive Emmys for "The Lucy Show" in 1967 and 1968. She also appeared on every other TV show in creation and made movies like "Yours, Mine & Ours". When did she sleep?

As for "Mame", I think everybody realizes that was a mistake. I even remember bits appearing in gossip columns and such implying that it was a dud, BEFORE the movie was even released!

I do remember Yours, Mine, & Ours. I haven't seen it in a long time but I remember loving it.

I remember one ep and I can't remember if it was the Lucy Show or Here's Lucy where Lucie was in a band with her friends and they were talking about playing "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window."

The dance was to celebrate the American Invasion of Puerto Rico at Guinca in 1898. (Yup, they celebrate the invasion.) He wasn't a member of a gang but part of the U.S. Coast Guard (a gang? perhaps. lol) I do believe it was love at first sight. But, it didn't end tragically. They got married and had two kids. They were together until she died when she in her 80s. He died when he was in his 90s.

Just watching it now, on your recommendation. Very interesting indeed. Although I found the device of using fake people to lip synch to the actual voices on the audio tapes to be a bit off-putting. Many of the "actors" don't really "look like" the voices, if you know what I mean. Especially with well known people with distinctive voices and personalities like John Huston. At times I found myself looking away from the actors to just hear the audio, as it originally was on the tapes.

I more or less did the same as you, and did find it curious that she had been with 'the general' in the 1950s.

"D.B. Cooper Where Are You?" 

The D.B. Cooper story is endlessly interesting, but this 4 part series seems like a glossy rehash of all the other documentaries (and there are millions) I've seen over the years. All the usual suspects (and footage) are dredged up. On the other hand, the early 1970s style graphics and soundtrack are terrific, and the series (especially pt. 1) will be an eye opener for those who would like to know how different early 70s air travel was from today.

Lovejoy the dodgy antiques dealer? Or an unrelated American show which has the same name?

Yup, the dogdy antiques dealer played by Ian McShane. Yeah, it is an older show but we enjoyed it. But I always get confused when watching Brit shows with cars. I have to keep reminding myself that the driver is on the opposite side. Going off on a tangent: Did you have issues with it when you were over here?

Not really. As long as you have a car with the steering wheel on the correct side for that country the driver just needs to be next to the centre line. We had just one day very early on when Dai turned out of the driveway and onto the wrong side of the road. Thankfully no other cars were around, and we quickly realised.

It is much harder taking a car from here across to mainland Europe. I can still remember chanting the mantra in Sweden “drive on the right and turn on the lights”

We watched that last night, too. It was cute.

But, it ALWAYS bothers me when people ask the question, "Do our cats love us?" A DUH! They are highly intelligent beings. To think they are incapable of love is absurd. They may PRETEND that they only love us because we feed them but they really do. We see it every time we come home from a long trip. They are VERY happy to see us.

We watched both Hocus Pocus movies last night on Disney+. We LOVE the first one and watch it every Halloween. The second one scored about a C+ at best. There was NO story to it. The only reason why it scored that high was because it had Bette, Sarah, & Kathy in it. Otherwise, it wasn't worth it at all.

We just started watching Wednesday. I'm enjoying it. The funny thing is, it supposed to take place in a town called Jericho, Vermont-even though it wasn't filmed there. We know people who live in Jericho and have been there several times. It really is a nice town.

"A Day at the Beach" (1970)

This one of Roman Polanski's forgotten gems which was previously thought lost. It received a low key theatrical push on its release due to the murder of Polanski s wife and the desire not to cash in on Polanski s name being involved with the lurid Manson murders. The story is a hauntingly accurate and bleak look at alcoholism in which Bernie (Mark Burns) takes his daughter Winnie (Beatie Edney) out for a day at the beach. Peter Sellers co-stars as a gay stall owner in one of his most inventive roles. Working in Europe on this film, this film saved Roman Polanski's life.

"Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, a Journey, a Song".

A biography of my old favorite Leonard Cohen, as seen though the lens of his composition "Hallelujah", a once ignored song from an album his record company (Columbia) wouldn't even release in this country, through the labyrinthian twists, turns and back roads the song took to becoming the standard it is today. Though, as I have said countless times, possibly the most misunderstood "standard" that ever existed. This documentary does a reasonably decent job of untangling much of the confusion.

Voyages of Discovery: Circumnavigation
Explorer Paul Rose reveals the real story behind the first ever circumnavigation of the world.  Ferdinand Magellan set out 500 years ago to find the westward route to the riches of the Spice Islands. But, contrary to popular perception, he never reached them. Rose explains the dramatic sequence of events that led his scurvy-riddled crew to continue around the world without him. The incredible expedition was laced with bloody mutiny and murder, but its achievement was to fundamentally change the lives of the generations that followed, influencing life even today.
