Mike n Rachel in DC: zzzzzzz16:43
Rush: All the smoke recalls “The Jade Mask”!16:43
Rush: Recap…16:43
Mike n Rachel in DC: Beethoven again…sigh16:43
Len Freeman: Anyone have a favorite chapter or moment up to now?16:43
Rush: Serial goers needed to know how to read!16:43
Mike n Rachel in DC: Jump!16:44
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hornet looks baffled!16:44
Mike n Rachel in DC: Looks bad16:44
Matt1: Hmmmmm16:44
Mike n Rachel in DC: Can the hornet fly?16:45
Len Freeman: It’s handy how he always jumps near Kato16:45
Cdirus has joined this room16:45
Matt1: Hello CD!16:45
Len Freeman: hi CD16:45
Rush: WOW!16:45
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hello CD16:45
Cdirus: Hi guys!16:45
Rush: WELCOME, CD!16:45
Cdirus: Hi Rush!16:45
Rush: THAT was SOME escape!16:45
Mike n Rachel in DC: Great for toasting marshmellows16:45
Rush: Must have laded in a tree to break his momentum!16:45
Cdirus: So he jumps out of a crashing plane with not a scratch?16:46
Mike n Rachel in DC: Have to remember that in case I’m ever in a crashing plane…16:46
Rush: None the worse for wear after that tramatic escape!16:46
Mike n Rachel in DC: To be fair, he did look woozy for a few seconds.16:46
Rush: How are you tonight, CD!16:46
Rush: (Sorry, I was watching the serial!)16:47
Mike n Rachel in DC: CA scenery, I take it16:47
Rush: I think the Hornet Mobile really DOES buzz!16:47
Cdirus: Doing good Rush, except I have to go back to work tomorrow16:47
Rush: Certainly, M/R.16:47
Mike n Rachel in DC: The secret formula for the magnetic force?16:48
Rush: Some of the mountainous driving scenes look to me like Mulholland Drive.16:48
Len Freeman: Anyone have a favorite chapter or moment so far?16:48
Mike n Rachel in DC: Actually the plane crash scene was a highlight for us…very fun!16:49
Rush: Actually, Len, I appreciated the Hornet’s escape in this one from the crashing plane! They didn’t “cheat” us.16:49
Len Freeman: Yes… they did “cheat” a lot … 16:49
Rush: He actually had a legitimate close call!16:50
Rush: Yes, Len, that was the nature of serials!16:50
Mike n Rachel in DC: We would like to know how the stunt was done. It seems that some of these were pretty dangerous in real life, too.16:50
Len Freeman: A lot was done with Miniatures16:51
Rush: Off subject: please cast your vote in this month’s Poll question before the end of the month.16:51
Rush: The poll is located at our Entrance page…just scroll down.16:51
Len Freeman: But they’d also shot a lot of footage with early wild stunt fliers… which is why they show bi-planes… that was what the originals were shot on… so they could match the dangerous stock footage16:52
Rush: $300,000.16:52
Rush: About $4.5 MILLION today!16:52
Mike n Rachel in DC: Ah. Cool Len!16:52
Mike n Rachel in DC: Rach is venting about the sexism in that last scene16:53
Rush: “Michael” appeared in the Chan film series.16:53
Rush: “Charlie Chan at the Circus.”16:53
Matt1: Nice tip!16:53
Rush: Precursor to today’s van.16:54
Rush: A “panel truck.”16:54
Mike n Rachel in DC: 16:54
Len Freeman: A much used plane crash scene, shown from inside the cockpit was actually from an early Alfred Hitchcock film that they all reused the footage from.16:54
Rush: AH!16:54
Rush: Interesting, Len!16:54
Len Freeman: Too much trivia in my head right now16:55
Mike n Rachel in DC: Do you know the original Hitchcock film by chance? 16:55
Rush: “Life Boat” by Hitchcock had a good ocean crash scene.16:55
Mike n Rachel in DC: Wish we could be in your class :)16:55
Rush: Or…was that another film…?16:55
Rush: “Foreign Correspondent”?16:56
Len Freeman: Foreign Correspondnet16:56
Len Freeman: You got it16:56
Rush: Slapped a hornet away!16:56
Matt1: A hornet?16:56
Rush: I am thankful that my aging brain still functions okay, it seems, Len!16:57
Rush: A bump or two in the thought process….16:58
Len Freeman: Impressively so16:58
Rush: WOW!16:58
Rush: Pedestrians beware!16:59
Mike n Rachel in DC: silence your motor…and turn off the music!16:59
Rush: Good work with the gas gun.16:59
Mike n Rachel in DC: Kato must be gas-proof…17:00
Rush: YES!17:00
Mike n Rachel in DC: Green hornet could use a radio, dontcha think?17:00
Rush: Len, last week we noted the Hornet’s “new” mask with the hornet emblem.17:00
Rush: Some sort of communication device…yes. But they were pretty big back then…17:01
Mike n Rachel in DC: Oh oh17:02
Rush: There goes mt expensive China!17:02
Mike n Rachel in DC: Out-gunned17:02
Cdirus: Didn’t he tell her to run?17:02
Rush: Next week: Chapter 9 “The Tragic Crash” 17:02
Rush: Keep your gas guns at the ready, everyone!17:03
Mike n Rachel in DC: Check, boss17:03
Rush: :)17:03
Rush: 12 minutes till “Charlie Chan in Panama.”17:03
Mike n Rachel in DC: The dramatic pacing of the Hornet episodes seems less even than “Jack”17:03
Len Freeman: Hm… I’ll have to back and check the new mask out… I thought it looked different tonight.17:03
Rush: This one is very appropriate for today’s holiday.17:04
Len Freeman: They changed the Lone Ranger’s mask in the early moves, but that was to cover different actors under the mask17:04
Rush: Rumblings of war continue from last week’s film into this one.17:04
Rush: I see, Len.17:04
Rush: Makes sense.17:04
Len Freeman: OF course they could’ve done that here too… 17:04
Rush: I think they added the emblem to the Hornet’s mask to make it more interesting.17:05
Louise has joined this room17:05
Len Freeman: They could dub a voice, and basically use anyone the right size as long as they had a mask on17:05
Louise: Hi all17:05
Rush: It is pretty blank without it.17:05
Matt1: Hello Louise!17:05
