10-14 18:52
Rush:
This part especially relates to one of our adventures tonight.

Note the wine reference here.
10-14 19:01
Louise:
Tonight I just made potato-zucchini pancakes with homemade applesauce. Yum, but took longer than I thought it would!
10-14 19:01
HonoluLou:
Sheeze Louise, did you bring any?

10-14 19:02
Louise:
I did Neanderthal archaeology in that region of France. Years ago…
10-14 19:03
Rush:
We have them for you as links tonight.
Both have been colorized.
10-14 19:03
HonoluLou:
I’m afraid I must depart. Enjoy the evening all Buona Notte from CLE. Lou
10-14 19:03
Louise:
So what do people think of colorized movies?
10-14 19:03
Rush:
Originally, they are, of course, in fabuklous black and white.
10-14 19:03
Nothere:
So who want to not help me rob th eEnglish Museum?
10-14 19:03
Louise:
Bye Lou
10-14 19:03
Nothere:
Bye Lou
10-14 19:03
Matt:
Take care Lou
10-14 19:04
Barbie Dahl:
Nighty night Lou
10-14 19:04
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
ciao Lou
10-14 19:04
Rush:
In this case, Louise, it is an “enhancement” for some.
10-14 19:04
Nothere:
Depends on how their done. Louise. Some I don’t know why they bothered. Others are an interesting take.
10-14 19:04
Rush:
Perha play for younger viewers?
(perhaps)
10-14 19:04
Barbie Dahl:
Prefer black and white, Louise
10-14 19:05
Rush:
Yes.
10-14 19:05
Louise:
I taught my son to love Black and White movies but I suspect Rush is correct.
10-14 19:05
Matt:
I prefer b & w too
10-14 19:05
Barbie Dahl:
Nowhere, sometimes the colors are spot on and not bad but I still prefer the original
10-14 19:05
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
very different sensibility
10-14 19:05
Rush:
If it grabs more interest when colorized, so be it…
10-14 19:05
Barbie Dahl:
Damn spell correct! Meant to say NOTHERE
10-14 19:05
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
Mike likes b/w, Rach gets lonely for a movie in color at times
10-14 19:06
Rush:
It is not a very wonderful job of colorization…probably a computer program was used.
BD, understood!
10-14 19:06
Barbie Dahl:
MnR, I like both but prefer them in their original condition
10-14 19:07
Nothere:
Well you were close Barbie. I am somewhere. Just nothere:)
10-14 19:07
Rush:
The first episode….”Death at High Tide,” is on disc 12 if you have the DVD set.
10-14 19:07
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
glub glub glub
10-14 19:07
Louise:
Interesting premise for this movie.
10-14 19:07
Barbie Dahl:
I’ve seen some of the Sherlock Holmes films with Rathbone and Bruce and the colonization is excellent
10-14 19:07
Rush:
Episode 12: “Death at High Tide” (1957; 25 minutes)
10-14 19:07
Louise:
I love the typo “colonization”!!!
10-14 19:08
Rush:
10-14 19:08
Matt:
I’m watching 1st on my DVD (b & W)…..2nd online/color, probably because I’m too lazt to change the DVD 🙂
10-14 19:08
Rush:
Yes, perhaps not too far off!
10-14 19:08
Paul Minturn:
good evening gang
10-14 19:08
Barbie Dahl:
Aaaargh! Colonization? Meant to say COLORIZATION
10-14 19:08
Nothere:
I’ve seen some where they’ve gone the other way. But mostly they just turn some horror movies scenes black and white. Not the whole film.
10-14 19:08
Rush:
Understood, Matt!
10-14 19:08
Matt:

Louise:
Great, GS, hope they are good for you
10-14 19:15

10-14 19:17
Godwinshelley:
I thought I had the right episode
10-14 19:17
Rush:
Number One Son….BARRY.
Played by James Hong.
10-14 19:17
Nothere:
Well I suppose this counts as acceptibale colorizing….barely.
10-14 19:17
Rush:
J. Carroll Naish is Charlie Chan.
10-14 19:17
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
I come to Barry Chan, not to praise him
10-14 19:18
Barbie Dahl:
Charlie Chan with a tan?😝
10-14 19:18
Louise:
Weird colorizing in my opinion. CC has yellow chin and orange skin!
10-14 19:18
Rush:
There is a sort of “liniage” here, as Naich was in “Charlie Chan at the Circus” with Warner Oland!
“Gangor the Snake Charmer”
10-14 19:19
Rush:
Not to mention…”Caesar the Ape”
This is the region seen in the quick travelog extra we shared.
10-14 19:19
Louise:
Caesar!
10-14 19:19
Rush:

10-14 19:23
Godwinshelley:
Rush do the episodes actually display the episode title
10-14 19:23

We see it a couple of time in the CC film series.
10-14 19:23

Chan sleeping. Yeah seen it once or twice.

10-14 19:30
Nothere:
Tommy has given some crooks trouble.
10-14 19:30
Rush:
This is son, Barry, so maybe he was not quite as “physical” as his brothers!
Although in a couple of other episodes, we see that Barry is pretty athletic.
10-14 19:31
Louise:
Does anyone really talk in their sleep?
10-14 19:31
Nothere:
If you can’t trust a prisioner of war to not double cross you, who can you trust?

How does the coloriation look for those watching the online version?
10-14 19:32

Matt:
10-14 19:32
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
it’s inconsistent Rush…fades in and out
10-14 19:32

Colorization is yucky, goes back and forth between different colors.
10-14 19:32
Rush:
TYSM…Matt…
10-14 19:32
Nothere:
Like I said. It passes barely.
10-14 19:33
Rush:
AH. I missed your comment above.
10-14 19:33
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
It’s not like color adds a lot to the photography in this episode
10-14 19:33
Rush:
Whoever killed him was in a hurry as the gold bar was left with the body!
10-14 19:34
Louise:
It makes everyone the same color so I guess there is that!
10-14 19:34
Rush:
Ah.
10-14 19:34
Godwinshelley:
my disc set of the TV series lists Death at High Tide – though it is obviously the wrong episode
10-14 19:34
Rush:
Oh.
10-14 19:34
Nothere:
Funny I tend to answer people pointing guns at me. I rarely say anything useful, but I answer.

Maybe go through it at your leisure, GS, and note any needed corrections?
10-14 19:35

Always a basement…
10-14 19:35

That is one convenient balcony…
10-14 19:35

YES!
10-14 19:36
Godwinshelley:
I checked all 4 episodes on this disc and none seemed to be correct
10-14 19:36
Rush:
Sorry, GS.
10-14 19:36
Matt:
I switched to YouTube GS
10-14 19:36
Godwinshelley:
I also checked the next disc which has the next selection – makes for a puzzle
10-14 19:37
Rush:
CC does pretty well for an old retired detective!
10-14 19:37
Matt:
DVD mislabeled
10-14 19:37
Rush:
Another “sea bird”?
10-14 19:37

So we are all watching different episodes! Amazing we can still have a conversation.
10-14 19:37
Rush:
NO!
Not this time.
10-14 19:37

10-14 19:43
Godwinshelley:
Yea – looks like my discs are correct for our next selection
10-14 19:43
Rush:
An iraony is that although “pop” and son get along well in this series, in actual life, Naish was evidently not too kind toward James Hong.
Very good, GS!
10-14 19:43
Barbie Dahl:
☹️
10-14 19:44
Nothere:
Maybe if he had Hong in there Nash would have changed his mind. I’ll show myself out.
10-14 19:45
Barbie Dahl:
You’re a very PUNNY guy, Nothere
10-14 19:45
Rush:
Well, Naish was by the time of the series, at a descending part of his career, moving from high end movies toward supoporting roles in TV, while james Hong was a your actor, with his future ahead of him!
So…who knows?
10-14 19:46

Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:
NT. Rachel is in pain from that pun.
10-14 19:46
Nothere:
I only know him from this and the Batman serial. When your Batmans first on screen foe you don’t get to complain about your carrer.
10-14 19:46
Rush:
True!
10-14 19:46
Paul Minturn:
Naish would eventually wind up in a wheelchair in one of my fave low=budget movies…DRACULA VS FRANKENSTEIN

10-14 19:49
Mike n Rachel (!) in DC:

10-14 19:49
Barbie Dahl:

10-14 19:49
Rush:
Moral: Never argue inside a tomb!
10-14 19:49
Nothere:
You look like me. But you’d never impresonate me.
10-14 19:49

Louise:
New Commandment?
10-14 19:57

10-14 20:01

10-14 20:03
Barbie Dahl:
There’s an extra body in a tomb in Egypt…
10-14 20:03

Always the way. First you dump them. Then they get filthy rich.
10-14 20:03
Rush:

10-14 20:07
Nothere:
The classic mystery set up.
10-14 20:08
