Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival

Selling thousands upon thousands of passes to a film festival for prices upwards of $1,000 (or more) when purchasers have absolutely no guarantee that they will even get into the film (unless they wait in line for 90 minutes per film) is, to my thinking, a scam. TCM should sell as many passes as the...

Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival

Assuming that you will have to wait 90 minutes (at least) in 2 lines FOR EVERY SINGLE FILM after you have paid hundreds of dollars (or over $1,000) to attend the festival with the very real possibility that you will not even get into a film is insane. It's a giant scam and if more folks knew that th...

Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival

First, let me say that I adore TCM and could not live without it. For years my husband and I debated about going to the festival but the thought of paying for the cost of the passes plus travel to LA (for 2) always seemed to be a wee bit extravagant to screen movies that, in most cases, you had seen...

Re: MovieCollectorOH Site

Yes, I was talking about moviecollectoroh's site (where he lists every movie that has ever aired on TCM since Day 1. I can't tell you what an invaluable resource that is and I bless him everyday for doing it. If anybody knows how to reach him, share with the group.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

Interesting ranking of all the Indiana Jones films: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/indiana-jones-movies-ranked-dial-of-destiny-1235528041/ Agree with rankings 1, 2 & 5 but but not sure I wouldn't rank Dial 3rd and Temple of Doom (and Gloom!) 4th . . . Thinking, thinking . . .

Re: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

Saw Dial of Destiny yesterday and overall I liked it though once again I have to ask: How many endless chase scenes can movies have these days?? They only work if occasionally the characters sit still and actually talk to one another. I adore Harrison Ford (one of the last true "movie stars&quo...

Totally agree!!

Re: TCM announces it is sunsetting the TCM Forums

So, it was my understanding that the TCM Message Boards would be accessible (on the TCM site) until February, 2023. But, they appear to be gone and gone. I had hoped to check a few things out from those years of wonderful commentary before they shut it all down. Am I crazy? (Rhetorical question.) H...
