Best Of
Re: Yeah, so, I am watching this..,
One of my favourite P&P films too. If you're a fan of physical media then this might be for you. Criterion have released it on 4K (also available on BluRay)theartofmovieposters said:Oh, this was on SBS recently here. I started watching but had to leave to pick up my kids from something. Definately going to revisit nowHONDO said:It would be great to own all of those box sets. The Powell & Pressburger set has some top titles, but it doesn't contain my favourite film of theirs I Know Where I'm Going. Just love this film and always fondly remember the beautiful version of the title song sung briefly at the end of the film. For anyone who may not have viewed this film I do thoroughly recommend for you to check it out.

Re: The Comedy Quiz
You are very observant in picking up on the inconsistencies that you mentioned. The film here in question, although set in 1910 was made and released in the 1950s. There is also a clip used in the film's opening scene from a 1927 film. Good luck with this one.jayn_j said:I don't have an answer for c6, but there are some interesting tidbits.
The quality of the shot and clothing style seem to point to early cinema, but The Phantom Creeps is a 1939 serial. Keystone Cops silent shorts were popular in 1910's.
Leads me to believe this is a much later film that is trying for a period setting. Could be some flashback segment to get that period look. The continuity person really screwed up though.

It would certainly appear Australian lobby cards ceased being printed circa 1979, when they were replaced by lobby card posters aka photo sheets that were printed during the 1980s.

Re: The Science Fiction Quiz
Correct and well done. Science fiction films aren't every persons favourite genre, Both Tobor the Great and Riders To the Stars from 1954.jayn_j said:Can't believe nobody answered.
244 is Tobor the Great.
245 is Riders to the Stars (but i cheated on this one. Never heard of it)

Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
I dont think Mad Max 2 is a lobby card. It looks to have been an image cut from a Photo Sheet

Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
Obviously cost was a factor in printing lobby cards here, there would have been smaller runs than US printed cards.
Re: Hondo's This And That
Interesting that they went to the trouble of printing the posters before knowing if they could show it or not.
Re: A Do You Know Your Classic Movies Quiz.
Your ''four some reason'' thinking it could possibly be the answer is actually correct. You need not have doubted yourself. Forrest Gump from 1994. Such a great film.dedeposter said:For some reason I'm thinking Forrest Gump for 665, but I don't think so.

I've got the double bill and Curse of the Voodoo but not the solo Frankenstein vs Space Monster, which is the best of the lot!

Did you know that the original plan was for him to have a different accent in each film? I'm glad they didn't go with that idea.
