Ice Station Zebra is on Turner Classic Movies!?!

[Telly Savalas]

Is there some obscure definition of the word "classic" of which I'm not aware? Jeez.

1. Didn't you know?

"Classic" is a fancier way of saying "old". (Look at some of the shite they've been airing on American Movie Classics in the past few years.)

4. Old???

:eyes: Ice Station Zebra was my first real movie date.... :eyes:


ME~~~~> A Classic

2. A great movie to watch

during a heat wave.

March of the Penguins is another. :P

3. What's wrong with Ice Station Zebra?

It's been a millions years since I've seen it but I remember it being quite intense.

Is this because it's not B/W? Is that the criteria for a classic?

5. its their 31 days of Oscar, or whatever...

the movie was nominated for a couple of Academy Awards.

6. Think that's odd?

"True Lies" was on the Women's Network last month.

:crazy:

7. 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' is starting on Cinema Insomnia

with Mr. Lobo.

Apparently, he's goin' halfway legit. I want 'em to bring back stuff like "Invasion of the Carrot Salad Creatures" and "Godzilla vs. Mrs. No-Supper-For-You." x(

8. Hey! Ice Station Zebra was a good movie!

Don't go knocking it.

9. All I know is it was Howard Hughes' favorite movie

He'd supposedly watch it over and over and over again, never tiring of it.

I've never seen it.
