Yes, Steve!
That can happen.
01-09 18:33
Matt:
A cold in Hawaii? SO wrong!
01-09 18:33
Hawaii_Steve:
I have the volume on and up on my computer. I hear “pops” each time someone sends a message.
01-09 18:33
Rush:
Me as well.
01-09 18:33
Hawaii_Steve:
Yes Matt.
01-09 18:33
Matt:
You can silence the “pop”
01-09 18:34
Rush:
If wanted, yes.
01-09 18:34
Hawaii_Steve:
No. I like the pop. Lets me know that somebody is writing something.
01-09 18:34
Matt:
Makes me desire popcorn
01-09 18:35
Rush:
Wait until Louise arrives! She has a whole collection of sounds!

01-09 18:37
Hawaii_Steve:
01-09 18:38
Rush:
AH!
01-09 18:38
Matt:
Look at those two!
01-09 18:38
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Look at those two distinguished gentlemen!
01-09 18:38
Hawaii_Steve:
Trying a few extras.
01-09 18:38
Rush:
That was a WONDERFUL time, was it not?
01-09 18:38
Hawaii_Steve:
Where? Where?
01-09 18:39
Rush:
Speaking of extras…tonight we have but one, but it’s a “goody.”
01-09 18:39
Hawaii_Steve:
This chat room is so much better than the old one. We thinks.
01-09 18:39
Rush:
The trailer for “Charlie Chan Carries On.”
01-09 18:39
Mike n Rachel in DC:
LOL Steve. You’re channeling the Three Stooges.
01-09 18:39
Rush:
I do agree, Steve!
01-09 18:39
Matt:
Agreed!
01-09 18:40
Hawaii_Steve:
“Gentlemen” I love the stooges, when Larry says, “Who came in?”
01-09 18:40
Mike n Rachel in DC:
We do too. Rachel: OH WOW!
01-09 18:40
Rush:
And, i don’t think anyone geets “booted” for non activity.
01-09 18:40
Matt:
Not yet!
01-09 18:40
Hawaii_Steve:
01-09 18:41
Rush:
The Boys!
01-09 18:41
Matt:
Later years
01-09 18:41
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Fun-nee!
01-09 18:41
Rush:
Circa 1961, i’d say.
01-09 18:41
Mike n Rachel in DC:
That looks like it might have been from my youth
01-09 18:41
Hawaii_Steve:
When I was a teenager, I watch the Stooge features on the big screen.
01-09 18:41
Mike n Rachel in DC:
1961? Then yes, it was.
01-09 18:41
Rush:
Yes!
01-09 18:42
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Rachel: Jeez. You’re old.
01-09 18:42
Matt:
lol
01-09 18:42
Rush:
MeTV runs two hours of the Three Stooges before Svengoolie!
01-09 18:42
Mike n Rachel in DC:
These children I tell you…no respect these days
01-09 18:42
Rush:
01-09 18:43
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Steve, there was an annual Three Stooges marathon in a movie theater in Ann Arbor when I was in school. I would nearly expire from laughing every year.
01-09 18:43
Rush:
My local TV ran the Three Stooges shorts in the morning, and I watched them before walking to school!
01-09 18:44
Matt:
What a way to go off to school….with a smile!
01-09 18:44
Mike n Rachel in DC:
The plumbers were a favorite…as well as Nacki, Waki and Saki
01-09 18:44
Rush:
Yes, Mike?
01-09 18:44
Hawaii_Steve:
Years ago, I bought the entire Columbia shorts collection at Costco. As an adult, its amazing to watch these guys. The timing. The expressions. Wonderful.
01-09 18:44
Rush:
True, Matt…!
I have that set as well, Steve!@
01-09 18:46
Rush:
I am not too fond of the Joe Besser ones.
01-09 18:46
Hawaii_Steve:
When I worked as a stock broker’s assistant, I met Joan Howard Maurer, daughter of Moe. Shearson handled her stock account.
01-09 18:46
Matt:
How cool
01-09 18:46
Rush:
Mantan Moreland would have neen MAGIC for the series!
01-09 18:46
Matt:
Yes!
01-09 18:46
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Fascinating, Steve.
01-09 18:47
Rush:
really, Steve! NICE!!
01-09 18:47
Hawaii_Steve:
Joan invited me over to her house. We had a drink together. And spoke about stooge scripts.
01-09 18:47
Rush:
WOW!
01-09 18:47
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Was her father still alive at the time?
01-09 18:48
Rush:
On occasion one can see how some material was “borrowed” from Laurel and Hardy!
01-09 18:48
Hawaii_Steve:
I met Joan around 1990. Moe died in 1975, I believe.
01-09 18:48
Rush:
Yes.
01-09 18:49
Rush:
Just after he was on the Mike Douglas Show.
And, THAT is calssic!
CLASSIC, as well!
01-09 18:49
Hawaii_Steve:
My favorite stooge feature is Around the World in a Daze. I was trying to get a copy of the script from Joan. It didn’t happen.
01-09 18:49
Rush:
AH!
01-09 18:49
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Gotcha. There was a film host in Detroit (Bill Kennedy)…from time to time he would get Moe or Larry on the phone and do a phone interview with them.
That would have been a treasure, Steve.
01-09 18:50
Rush:
When I was in Jr. High in the L.A. area, Billy Barty had a cartoon show, and on occasion the Three Stooges showed up!
He ran the Three Stooges cartoons.
01-09 18:51
Hawaii_Steve:
GodwynShelley got me a DVD of Moe on the Mike Douglas Show. Just wonderful. Moe was my favorite stooge.
01-09 18:51
Mike n Rachel in DC:
That must have been a treat. I recall that Moe and Larry were always so grateful to be remembered.
01-09 18:51
Rush:
Moe was GREAT!
My sister didn’t like him as she thought he was mean to the others!
01-09 18:52
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Ha. The Three Stooges would probably be censored for violence or something nowadays. Very glad I got to see them when I did.
01-09 18:52
Matt:
I was a Curly and Larry fan, especially since Larry was from Philly
01-09 18:52
Rush:
I see we have one “viewer.” I wonder if that could be Angel trying to enter.
Two now!
01-09 18:52
Hawaii_Steve:
Most women are not fans of the Stooges. Or Laurel & Hardy. Disrespectful toward women.
01-09 18:52
Rush:
Arrivals at the fron t door!
01-09 18:53
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Hm. Our viewership is increasing, Rush.
Or maybe it’s the pizza I ordered?
01-09 18:53
Matt:
C’mon In!
01-09 18:53
Rush:
well…how about we run the extra?
01-09 18:53
Matt:
Hello Angel!
01-09 18:53
Rush:
01-09 18:53
Mike n Rachel in DC:
OK. Is it a link…in the email?
01-09 18:53
Matt:

01-09 18:53
Rush:

Hawaii_Steve:
Geno’s house of rare films.
01-09 18:55
Rush:
GO!!!
01-09 18:56
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Hm. Edit: How about “based on” instead of “based off of”
01-09 18:56
Rush:
Here we go…finally!
01-09 18:59
Rush:
And there we have it!
01-09 18:59
Hawaii_Steve:
Amazing.
01-09 18:59
Matt:
Thnx Rush!
01-09 18:59
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Very nice. Oland looked quite young in that film!
01-09 18:59
Rush:
I remember hearing about the existence of this trailer about 15 years ago!
01-09 19:00
Mike n Rachel in DC:
We could see a glimpse of how he started with the Chan character too…it’s a great find.
01-09 19:00
Matt:
A & F!
01-09 19:00
Rush:
Then it was kept by the Library of Congress.
01-09 19:00
Hawaii_Steve:
Sometimes, trailers are made up of footage not used in the feature film. Could be true with CC Caries On.
01-09 19:00
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Has an Angel appeared?
01-09 19:00
Matt:
As we still hold out hope for the lost film
01-09 19:00
Rush:
Finally, it became available, and it is quite a little gem, is it not?
I think he left.
01-09 19:01
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Yes. It definitely whets the appetite for more.
01-09 19:01
Rush:
BACK! As his usualy self…with FOXX!
Welcome back, Angel!!!
I hope that he can post.
01-09 19:03
Rush:
12 minutes until showtime!
01-09 19:03
Hawaii_Steve:
Angel can post. He just being coy.
01-09 19:03
Rush:
01-09 19:03
Matt:
Hello Duane!
01-09 19:03
Rush:
I know that he’s had some techical issues. Last week he could only enter through Facebook.
01-09 19:03
Duane:
Hello all
01-09 19:04
Rush:
Duane!!!
WELCOME!!!
How are you this evening?
01-09 19:04
Duane:
Thank you Rush
01-09 19:04
Hounder:
Hi all. Just a quick check in as I have company!
01-09 19:04
Rush:
Hounder!
01-09 19:04
Duane:
Fine
01-09 19:04
Matt:
Hello Hounder!
01-09 19:04
Rush:
How’s your mother, hounder?
01-09 19:04
Hounder:
Hi Duane. Welcome.
01-09 19:05
Rush:
Happy to hear, Duane!
01-09 19:05
Hawaii_Steve:
It my opinion that the film archives, from around the world, communicate with one another. If we haven’t found the “missing” Chan films during the last 50 years, I believe that we never will.
01-09 19:05
Hounder:
Mom’s doing ok. Hanging in there.
01-09 19:05
Rush:
Looking that way, Steve….sadly….
Good to hear that, Hounder.
01-09 19:06
Duane:
New site is great thank you
01-09 19:06
Hawaii_Steve:
Even the film archives in Communist countries communicate to the USA and England … with regard to saving old films.
01-09 19:06
Hounder:
See you all next week. Tell the others I said hi.
01-09 19:07
Hawaii_Steve:
Aloha Hounder.
01-09 19:07
Matt:
Take care Hounder
01-09 19:07
Rush:
If anyone needs a copy of the film to watch, here is the address to an online copy…

01-09 19:12
Godwinshelley:

01-09 19:21
mda19083:

During the daytime, 1931 Universal Studios, Tod Browning was filming Dracula with Lugosi. At night, on the same sets, Universal was filming a Spanish-language version of Dracula with a different cast. Check out YouTube.

01-09 19:49
Hawaii_Steve:
There were no other foreign-language Charlie Chan films made by Hollywood after this one because, shortly after this movie came out, a method of putting sound on the actual film was developed, and so voice dubbing became more practical.

That “no man is a fool till . . . ” thing sounds a lot like the divinity concept of sin and the law.
