Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Wednesday, July 10, 2013. The Joy Of Dubbing. The July 3 Lone Ranger. Posting, besides prompting some time well spent with the great comedy albums of Bill Cosby and Lenny Bruce, also recalled Second City Television's outrageous sendup of The Cisco Kid, featuring Martin Short as Poncho. Many moons before SCTV, Mystery Science Theatre 3K, Cinematic Titanic, Kung Pow - Enter The Fist! Paul F. Etcheverry. Harry Langd...

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Tuesday, September 30, 2014. The fun started when the mini-musicals known as Vitaphone Varieties, most notably Al Jolson's screen debut in A Plantation Act, became a sensation in 1926-1927. Audiences were thrilled by the "talkie" short subjects which showcased the company's sound-on-disc system and often featured stage performers not seen before or since. The same MGM that could NOT figure out what to do with Bus...

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Sunday, July 19, 2015. Rewarding Careers In Ventriloquism! Pondering vintage movies, television and pop culture (instead of music) yet again, this blogger found that last weekend's The Joy Of Dubbing Part 2 post sparked more musings. . . this time on the topic of ventriloquism and malevolent inanimate objects in general. Man's head as a joke. "Hey let's play one on Grok! Watch this, Thak - this will be hysterical!

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Friday, July 10, 2015. The Joy Of Dubbing, Part 2. With the passing of the great Phil "Nick Danger" Austin from The Firesign Theatre last month, the art form of taking footage and dubbing new - and frequently both scandalous and hilarious - dialogue over everything and re-inventing it COMPLETELY in the process has arisen in this blogmeister's consciousness. Presented as Dubbing Exhibits A and B: The Cisco Kid.

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog: Wooden Acting? What Do You Mean - Wooden Acting?

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Sunday, July 26, 2015. What Do You Mean - Wooden Acting? Not unlike "Canadian Corner" hosers Bob and Doug McKenzie, we seem stuck for a topic today. Since a recent post closed with a spoof of Gerry Anderson's "Supermarionation" by the stalwart comedy team of Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, let's talk marionettes, starting with gonzo glam-rockers Mott The Hoople. . . of course, performing "Marionette". About Your Cor...

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Happy Birthday To The Urbane, Sophisticated, Ever-Suave William Powell. July 29, the birthday of "The It Girl" Clara Bow and winsome comedienne Thelma Todd is also the natal anniversary of yet another all-time movie great: William Powell (1892-1984). The versatile actor was the embodiment of S.S. Van Dyne's Philo Vance. As well as Dashiell Hammett's sophisticate-sleuth Nick Charles.

Way Too Damn Lazy To Write A Blog. Musings On 20th Century Pop Culture by Psychotronic Paul. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Last Post Of 2014: Kudos, Bravos And Huzzahs To The Latest Additions To The National Film Registry. Several titles in the 2014 group, ESPECIALLY the 1913 film starring the legendary comedian, actor, vocalist and stage sensation Bert Williams, supported adeptly by a troupe of African-American actors, are truly historic and represent celluloid finds of the most miraculous kind. The iro...

February 24 will be the official release date of the book The Dawn Of Technicolor. Should a light romantic comedy, 1930's style, be the ticket on one of those Baby, It's Cold Outside. What this writer finds most compelling about Remember The Night, besides wonderful performances by the stars and supporting players, is both the intrigu...

Careening between the topics of classic movies, animated cartoons, television, comedy and music yet again, but staying resolutely within this blog's "20th Century Pop Culture" theme, submitted for your approval is the Clip Of The Day. This writer considers it hands-down the Best Beatles Cover Ever. Play music again someday? Big V Riot Squad.
