***now I feel foolish. I went to Amazon looking for a few books to tide me over the comming winter, and saw that "Robe" is available on wide-screen DVD, and that they have a review section where everyone compares it to "Dances with Wolves". I don't know which is worse: that I think just like everyone else--or that they think like me! Ha Ha Ha Haha hahahahahahah! Wooooooooheeeee..

I have to admit that I have not seen the Wolves and have no intention to see it. I can't bring myself up to watching ANYTHING Costner. I can't stand that plastic clown and refuse to even consider his movies, much like those by other windbags - Leonardo, Harrison Ford and many others. Is that movie my loss? So be it. But with literally THOUSANDS of great actors out there, many of their works still unknown to me, I shall not watch scum.

I think the reason many compare the two is simple - people often need a crutch, a hook to hang their hat on.

Speaking of plastic Indians - if you are looking for possibly the best action on large screen, look no further than many movies with Goyko Mitich (sp). Many of those Yugoslavian movies will run circles around typical Hollywod action flicks in terms of their sheer intensity - that's the way I remember them anyway. And you will not find another set of biceps like Goyko's - short of the Terminator.

***Hummm 100 inch screen huh? hummm. Yep, I guess one of them roll-down movie screens is the way to go, with the ceiling projector.

That's the ticket, man.

***Kinda like a movie.

Yep.

***I like that. But you know, I grew up watching the classic B+W movies on the 19" 3:4 tube,

And you call THAT suffering? I grew up watching the Bicycle Thief on a 6" tube with fifteen people squeezed into a 100 sq. foot room. How's that for one-down-manship?

***and there is something about sitting in a dark room while the snow piles up outside, watching "the Third Man" for the 24th time...those sewers are so nice and clean! Only the Germans would have sewers like that!

And for a completely different type of sewer, see the Wajda's Kanal...
