Put in a new version of Title search
and a film title search page on the front page.

Should be an improvement although I can already see a teensy flaw!

oops.

Shouldn't stop it working though.

Also added
newest picture additions, go to What's New and scroll down past the list of New titles et voila!

again I suspect I will improve this or give it its own page or actually display the pictures - haven't made my mind up yet.

I want to add a Festival page too as I'm off to the Sundance Film Festival in January.

check out
http://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk
to keep up with developments on that front.

Where I grew up it was the done thing to wish every one
a Merry Christmas...

So...

A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

hi, wanted to add a few more credits to Ben Frommer.

I saw him listed in Blazing Saddles. He was in the immortal movie Plan 9 From Outer Space. as one of the mourners at Bela Lugosi's funeral. and he was learning English from Billy Crystal in the Rabbit Test.
and he was in the movie Flush. I am dying to see that movie.

Hi folks

First of all, terrific archive you guys put together! I stumbled upon your site by chance while looking for an obscure Stewart Granger TV flick from 1969 called "Any Second Now".

You have it in your database and I figured I might get lucky and find a copy trough the forum.

So if someone here owns this movie I'd appreciate a reply. I'm looking for this one for ages but it's a hard one to get obviously.

Keep up the good work,

A productive weekend for The Lord, Chris and I...
Stallone and DeNiro get upgrades...and our tribute to the great Paul Newman.
Watching Butch Cassidy for the umpteenth time one realises just how wonderful it is. To my chagrin I never spotted a couple of optical special effects shots courtesy of L.B. Abbott before - the first when the boys leap into the abyss - the rocks on either side are a matte painting!

Razorback, music video director Russell Mulcahy's film debut is a cheesy but phenomenally stylish little horror from down under. Soon he would direct one of my most favoured 80s movies, Highlander. I'm glad he's making something of a comeback but pity it has to be as lame as Scorpion King 2.

The last time I saw Culloden it was on a dodgy quality VHS, so I was very pleased to see it on DVD.

Culloden concerns the 'last battle' on English soil, the supression of the Jacobite rebellion in 1746.

the gimmick, although not new (Walter Cronkite was doing a similar thing in the late 50s), is that a film crew is on the scene interviewing and filming the proceedings.

The film has an astonishing feel of 'reality' and between the bloody-mindedness of the Highlanders and the blood thirstiness of the English, the stage is set for a slaughter.

A great war film or a great documentary? Both if you ask me.

Then one of those overly knowing patiche/homages from the Tarantino school of filmmaking, Robert Rodriguez' Planet Terror, which owes more to Troma, Carpenter and George Romero than the true Grindhouse opus, methinks.

[Edit]
Date Posted: 11:53:45 08/15/08 Fri
OK, today I received an email critical of my flags for Country of Birth.

The scenario is this, the lady in question was born in Germany in 1943, the flag I have displayed is that associated with Nazi Germany...

My petitioner feels this is offensive.

But my question is were I to change it
what would I change it to?
Germany
E.Germany
W.Germany

to further complicate things, the exact location of her birth was the Sudetenland which had been annexed by the Nazi's at the time. It is now part of the Czech Republic.

If I change it to today's flag she becomes Czech.

Similar problems occur with ex-colonies such as Hong Kong and countries that have changed flags such as USSR.

The next wrinkle is if any of the above changes should I consider changing the nationality of someone who was born under a different flag than that with which they are associated - Is Mel Gibson American or Australian for example?

Advice welcomed, I believe in being "Pareto optimal" - Greatest Happiness to the Greatest Number - where possible.

Another complicated candidate might be Pamela Franklin, very British, but born in Japan.

should I consider multiple flags, for born, raised and lives now? (which would of course depend on one knowing that information).

Next thorny issue - should one list personal info in the mini bio's, e.g. spouse, offspring? I'm certainly not going to stoop to do gossip, he said distainfully. My thought is NO, unless to note someone is so-and-so's son or daughter perhaps.

Hi there, I've been perusing your site as the ultimate source of actor idents for several years, and would like to repay the favour.

I have glossy 150x150 pixel mugshots of nearly every actor to have appeared in "The Avengers" and "The New Avengers" from 1961 to 1977 - season two of "The New Avengers" still has 50x50 shots, but I'm updating them this month.

Feel free to drop by and sample at will, if you want an archive of them batched up, let me know, but bear in mind the files are named for the character they play rather than the actor; I'm sure some fancy bit of code could automate the renaming process - if I have the time I might even write it for you...

http://www.dissolute.com.au/avweb/ is where it all happens, I have useful pages for other shows and cast regulars which collate a lot of the shots too.

So what would YOU like the site to provide

Here's some of my thoughts for New Features:

Current cinema releases
(problem: different places = different releases)

TV schedules
(problem: different places = different schedules)
(problem: too much to keep track of)

Search AKA names
Archie Leach would give you Cary Grant etc

Search AKA Titles
Night of the Demon would give you Curse of the Demon etc

Foreign Language titles
la dents de la mer gives you Jaws (really!)
(Problem: what IS the foreign title)

Boxoffice chart

Search on key words something like
Bearded man in 70s horror film
(Problem: a lot of data entry, potential stereotyping)

More non acting people - news readers, other celebrities, interviewees

More offsite/IMDb links

corrections/submissions online


Your thoughts, please

Although reluctant to make the transition from the static pages, I now have to admit that life is much easier and even allows other folk to add stuff (thanks to Leslie & Lord Heath!).



I've never wanted to put the traditional "Under Contruction" caveat on any of the pages - to my way of thinking a website should be a fluid thing...

Prophecy

Not to be confused with the ongoing film series concerning the war between angels.

Prophecy popped out to cash in on the current vogue for monster movies in the wake of Alien.

Having read the book, I was mad-keen to see the film, but somehow it eluded me for many years. In fact I didn't get to see Prophecy until 1988 on VHS.

One has to say, the wait wasn't worth it. Although well directed and perfectly paced, all is lost when the monster is onscreen.

This is one of those cases where hiding the beast would really have helped as it looks too much like a puppet or a man (Kevin Peter Hall) in a suit.


One scene stands out, when the beast is snacking on one unfortunate soul on the opposite bank of a river to our heroes. There is an unearthly quality to the image. I'm not sure how it was done - too fluid to be stop motion. Puppets I presume.

Great poster art and slogan though...
Don't Move...Don't Breathe...

Bottom line: environment friendly horror message movie beset with unintentional laughs. But its heart is in the right mouth.

The cast are shrill and annoying and capable of such amazing stupidity that one is rooting for their demise.
For a "monster" movie, the "monster" has very little to do, which is disappointing.

Interestingly, the hosting company has reverted to the old servers - which means none of the new piccies show...

So hang in there - I've put in a "whassup?" ticket

Two in from Chris,



The Sword in the Stone

and The Adventures of Milo & Otis.


I admit to a soft spot for Sword, despite being a lesser effort, as I love T. H. White's book, which you should seek out and/or The Once and Future King, which includes that work too.

Thanks, Chris!

Interesting casting for two, yes two, Sherlock Holmes films.




Robert Downey Jr. will don the deerstalker in director Guy Ritchie's shot at the title.



Sacha Baron Cohen is the next candidate in a comedy version also with Will Ferrell.

Great site, glad youv'e put a forum up.

I've just submitted a ton of actors links to the IMDB so that should be a few more hits for your site but it takes 2-4 weeks for them to appear.

Is there any updates for Rambo on the way or any other Sly films?

Keep up the good work.

Spitfire.

Site appears to be functioning.
The hosting company has reset the picture server to the point where I can't get in at the moment, however.

Upshot: no new pictures until I can.

Ah, yes, the forgotten message board which has been rotting here for 2 years...

This forum is predominantly for requests from you lot!

So bring 'em on!

Cheers

Welcome to the Aveleyman forums...
I have no idea whether this is a good idea or not, but hey...


Da Vinci Code
day for all you people who didn't go to the pictures...
Pick your bonus - Best Buy have an abridged version of the book on CD as a bonus.
Target have included a History channel tie-in with their version.

5 million punters picked up a copy of Cars on day 1 and 2 of its release (or maybe it was one punter picking up 5 million copies).

Don't forget to pick up The Green Mile and From Beyond the Grave while you're out shopping. Oh and yet another permutation of King Kong ultimate extreme makeover changing rooms edition...I still haven't watched all the extras on the first release yet.

Running around on the 'net there's a banner ad for Sony's Bravia HDTV "The World's first television for Men & Women", which I think is one of the worst ads I've ever seen with its curiously dated sexism. On the stength of that I'll defect to the HD camp!

Over on the IMDb message boards, someone asked what re-releases Disney had on the slate...
Not much is the answer!
Robin Hood on November 28th and then you have to wait until March 6th for a Peter Pan release. No Jungle Book? No One Hundred and One Dalmations?
On the bright side Disney are releasing four volumes of True-Life Adventures on December 5th.
