is it just me cousins, or does it feel like everyone is dying this year? please don't take that as me being disrespectful cause that isn't my intention at all. the latest one is of course "Leslie Neilson" that one hit me pretty hard cause that man was basically ageless. at least he felt that way to me even as far back as when the 1st "Naked Gun" film came out. in (1988)


another guy who seems ageless that was on "DS" is "Abe Vigoda' i love the fact that i believe it was his 1st acting job. & he actually looks i believe the same as he did back in (1969) when he did "DS" & he's i think almost 90 or in his 90's now i forget which.

that would be cool though IF he did i mean, but i really doubt he'd make himself known on it if he was a member here anyways.

oh i'm sure there are people on here who enjoyed the Pilot, i'm not denying that. i was of course just referring to the people who didn't like it. that's all

i know that's who i was thinking of when i was typing that. i also think the actor who played him made a horrible vampire. he was better when he was himself than he was playing a vampire to be honest. least i think so. anyways, if they put josette into the film than  yes i'd say put the music box in it.

but i can live without it. but ONLY if they don't put Josette into the film. & my guess it'd be an updated score of the original if it's used. i'd also LOVE a new take on the DS story.  & something tells me we may get it. & i do agree what MB said. if DC was still alive. god rest his soul.  if they were going to make a film of DS. it would be another copycat story.

& us fans here, don't mind it being re told somewhat. if told right. & written good. but it would be a nice breath of fresh air  to have a new DS story. on film anyways. i know we are getting that on the audio plays. & i love those.
but i also would love to see new DS story on film. to be honest if the film is a hit & i think it could well be.

i'd love them to try another tv series retry. but of course with people involved who knew & respected the work. from what i hear on iMDB & here the last attempt wasn't very good. so that's why i put it that way.

i know & it's just plain damn stupid if ya ask me. why wait a total year after a film is done? Tim  Burton doesn't have that many flops in his resume. & even those films that did flop made some good money as well. at least i think they did.

studio's are to damn picky today. just cause a film doesn't hit say $50 million bucks on the opening day or weekend they consider it a flop. ok maybe not that much money but you get my point. tv studios do it now to. most of the time.

take the show "Lone Star" for example. it's a new show that started this season. i didn't happen to watch it so bear with me i can't comment on it if it was any good or not? but they only aired 2 episodes THAN freaking cancelled it! how in the world is a tv show going to be a hit or gain an audience if they don't air at least 13 episodes? or almost up that

at the very least. they need to understand that there are a LOT of programs on tv. & people do go out & have a life. so they don't always catch this or that program. same thing with movies.  i don't go to the movies that often.

but i do once in  awhile download one. or buy it on blue-ray or dvd when it comes out. & it's not cause i refuse to see this or that film in the theatre. its' really cause i don't get out much. that's all. in short in tv & in the movie buisiness these morons need to just loosen up a little & not have such HIGH standards for their films. there's nothing wrong in

having faith in the product by any means. but they go way overboard. ya know what i mean? & i also agree on the release on the "DS" film on dvd & maybe even "Blue-Ray" from what i hear, if you download say the film

"The House of the long Shadows" from say "Amazon"  the picture quality & everything else is from what i hear freaking HORRIBLE!  they spend NO money whatsoever putting films out that way. it's a good idea to release not so well known titles to sites like "Amazon" but not remastering it at the very least is just plain stupid. & bad business. but than what do know i don't know anything about business anyways.  he he

i agree on that man, i for one loved 'Planet of the apes" i'm prolly one of the only people who did. but i think it's great in it's own way. & even if it's not as good as the original i didn't expect it to be when i saw it in the theatre 9 years ago. i have wanted them to do  a sequel to that since it came out! though i highly doubt he will ever do a sequel to that film.

cause he left us on a cliff hanger. which i would LOVE to see resolved in at least one more film, to finish the series off in
Tim Burton's universe anyways. & as for "DS" i hope he does do more films in the franchise if they hope to make one.

someone somewhere posted i forget where on how DS should be in the vein of the classic tv show 'Star Trek" & how that's more in the open than "DS" is & i have to agree with that assetment it's about time "DS" is more in the front than

the background like it's been since the show went off the air & the films were done in the theatre back than.
now i'm not saying it isn't popular it is. but most people today don't know what "DS" is or ever heard of it & if they have at least in (2010) it's cause of the new film coming out.

anyways, i didn't know that "Art Wallace" went to court over who created the characters. i can't say that i blame him either. but than i also don't know what led to it & so on. anyways, your'e right MB actors or actresses if they want to

do a role bad enough DO fit it in their schedule before anything else. such as the pirates sequels i believe he had soo much fun shooting the 1st one that he fit the sequels in his schedule. i think i may have read that somewhere way back when.

well said man well said. seriously "DC" got his facts wrong THAT MUCH? it's kinda funny in a way. cause you'd expect
a guy like him would be memory perfect. ya know? i mean hell if you look at one of my favorite directors/writers/ producers

 "Roger Corman" who just turned 84 this year. the same age as Frid i believe. his memory is perfect still at 84. & Frid's i think is pretty good still as well. how old is Sam Hall now anyways?

man i wish that Frid had done the sequel. i understand he didn't want his image to be just of Barnabas of course. i can't say that i blame him to be honest. as i've said in the past if you look at "Christopher Lee"if he or his son-in-law or anyone else in his family i'm sure says he's only well known as Dracula they get REAL PISSED! & have banned members
from their site cause on how some people atitudes are. or somethings like that. & i can't say that i blame them either.

cause i wouldn't want to be well known for just one role either. it does break my heart that Frid quit acting well in movies anyways. i think at some point he would have been better known for other roles as well. outside of Horror.

cause "DC" did at some point quit doing horror movies & went to Drama films. & i'm pretty sure he would have Cast Frid in a heartbeat in any of them had he still been acting in films by than. but this is just one guy's opinion. ya know?

i agree, i don't think it'll be on dvd/ or blue-ray until the film is released. than my guess they will reissue the dvd of the original series. my guess also is they will maybe do spurts or something of the show that may continue until & even after for awhle at least the film gets released on dvd & blue-ray. i'm just guessing of course.


i have no way of knowing or any proof this is what's going to go down.
