Geno Cuddy has joined this room

Mike n Rachel in DC has left this room

Rush: I will be similarly preoccupied soon, Louise!

Louise: Good video. I studies the World’s Fairs including this one.

Louise: *studied

Rush: Yes?

Rush: This film was put together in 1989, the 50th anniversary of the fair.

Geno Cuddy: Do they still have World’s Fairs?

Rush: I don’t think so, Geno.

Dona: That’s too bad. It looks like they would be interesting

Rush: They showed the Clipper port that is shown in our movie tonight.

Geno Cuddy: Thats sad as they seemed like an innovative concept, televeision, I believe, debuted at one.

Louise: Wrote this article about them: https://www.penn.museum/sites/expedition/all-the-world-in-one-place/

Geno Cuddy: maybe if we brought the World Fair back, all the divisiveness in our country wouldn’t run so rampant, but thats just my two cents

Louise: They do still have World’s fairs but as you can imagine they are very different now

Rush: None that I know of lately, Louise.

Matt1: Very nice, thnx Rush

Rush: You are welcome!

Geno Cuddy: Really, I haven’t heard of one

Rush: We started rolling the first one 20 minutes ago.

Geno Cuddy: must be on a much, MUCH smaller scale

mda19083: I took a road trip with my college buddies to the Knoxville World’s Fair in 1982 – what a hoot!

Geno Cuddy: when will we start the film proper?

Rush: I have another that is 10 minutes long. We can watch it if you like and start our feature a few minutes late tonight if you wish.

Rush: Alrisha, we are starting our movie a few minutes late tonight.

Alrisha: Ok

Geno Cuddy: Look at all of this beauty, all of this invention, everything we crafted with our hands, now we have robots who do the work, look at how much pride we used to have in ourselves, how we dressed, what we built

Mike n Rachel in DC: True, Geno…but that time had its share of challenges that we surmounted. Depression, major wars…and we came out ok. Hopefully we’ll keep chugging on for a good long while yet. πŸ˜‰

Rush: “Romantic Moon”

Louise: “Pigmy Arrows” arecoming soon

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: What a JOYK.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Joe Brody

mda19083: pigmy arra

Rush: (Louise)

Dave: Using the vibrant30s radio voice on Essex

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Let’s talk about furrrrrrrr. Foxxxxxxx furrrrrrrr.

Geno Cuddy: Rare tenderness from Toler’s Chan

Rich Maine: Poor Jimmy

Mike n Rachel in DC: *urp*

Rush: Douglas Dumbrille: Thomas Gregory (alias Stewart Salisbury)

Nothere: Scorpio mens a sting

Mike n Rachel in DC: Pig Miarra

Rush: It’s risky to be an “old friend” of Charlie Chan!

Phil: They all look the same to me Rush. πŸ™‚

Rush: πŸ™‚

Geno Cuddy: Loved Dumbrille in CITY IN DARKNESS, CASTLE IN THE DESERT nad the two Marx Bros. films A DAY AT THE RACES and THE BIG STORE

Rush: Jimmy is wrong.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Trylon! Perisphere! Avalanche!!

Dave: Rush: like Jessica Fletchers friends

Rush: Yep.

Phil: Cue the can.

Mike n Rachel in DC: The only way to travel? Apparently they haven’t invented cancelled flights and lost luggage yet.

Louise: Ooops, Paul!

Nothere: Or cousins. They all seem to be arrested for murder.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Whoops! Wrong Fair! \

Rush: Yes, Mike!

Rush: Angel: πŸ™‚

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: No fair for anybody!

Matt1: <tin can>

Geno Cuddy: I also saw Dumbrille in an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies

Rush: I love seeing these Chan actors in unexpected places!

mda19083: Lionel Atwill/George Zucco/Douglas Dumbrille are all interchangeable

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Coupla radiogram crackers.

Dave: Rich: great

Rush: Angel: πŸ™‚

Rich Maine: πŸ™‚

Phil: Why yes, I WILL just pick up a dead guy’s briefcase.

Rush: Coming in to the Clipper Port.

Geno Cuddy: okay, I want your opinion guys, how storng do you think the connection is between this film and the real life serial killer the Zodiac Killer

Nothere: Only one fought Captain America.

Rush: I stood at it several years ago as my family let me stop off at Treasure Island during a road trip.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Phil, you are a human Zapruder!!

Mike n Rachel in DC: “only that which comes from heart” one of my favorite Chan moments

Rush: We see the Oakland-SF Bay Bridge in the background.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: STELLLLLLLLLLLA!

Godwinshelley2: Was Zodiac killer in San Fran? If not, I would think it was more of a coincidence

Geno Cuddy: he was in SF

Dave: m/r…right

Nothere: You tell her. I have to be someplace else.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Geno…trying to recall the Zodiac killer…the 70s?

Rush: That bridge is seen under construction as CC flies into SF in “CC’S secret.”

Geno Cuddy: yes, I think

Rush: Yes, Geno.

Phil: Dead. Iced. Offed. X’d. The big chill.

mda19083: that guy is the bank examiner in Its a Wonderful Life

Godwinshelley2: Did they show Chan films on San Fran TV often? There used to be a Charlie Chan Theater on TV in some markets.

Nothere: I’ll send Geno a coded message

Dave: Phil: was he expired?

Rush: It is suggested that the infamous Zodiac Killer was influenced by Dr. Zodiac in our movie tonight.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Right, MDA. And “Paul” was Joe Brody in The Big Sleep

Phil: Why yes Dave, even expired.

Geno Cuddy: Apparently he was inspired by CC AT TREASURE ISLAND and THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME

Godwinshelley2: Wish it was Birmingham Brown pulling up

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: mda: if he’s still licensed, lotta banks need examining these days.

Louise: funny scene

Dave: No longer among those living?

Mike n Rachel in DC: That’s fascinating…have to look up more info!

Rush: Which year was “The Most Dangerous Game” made, Geno?

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Tru dat, GS!

mda19083: yes angel

Geno Cuddy: scary thing is, that guy is probably still out there killing people, never been caught or identified

Rush: CC isn’t taken in by their joke!

Rich Maine: UberX please

Rush: He may be dead by now, Geno.

Geno Cuddy: 1932, Rush, filmed on same sets and same time as KING KONG

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: A CHINFEST! I love that word!

Godwinshelley2: Unless he IS Geno

Rush: AH! Thank you, Geno.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Right, Rich. And be sure to check the license plate…prevents stuff like that.

Rush: Rhadini.

Geno Cuddy: GodwinShelley, I was born in 1995 so, no dice

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: And Zodiac!

Dave: Like the scenes here…

Mike n Rachel in DC: I wonder if Rhadini likes rhubarb

Godwinshelley2: So was this film an influence on the Scream films?

Rush: AH! A late “WELCOME,” GS!

Rush: Sorry!

Dave: Nice lighting

Godwinshelley2: Hello Rush

Rush: I was caught-up in the “extras” when you arrived, i guess!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: MnR: His theater is planted ’round with rhododendrons.

Phil: Hi GS!

Rush: How are you tonight, GS?

Dave: m/r: Rhubarbi

Rush: Alrisha, are you still with us?

Godwinshelley2: Doing OK – had a very muddy weekend at the MD Sheep & Wool Festival last weekend

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: WEhaddaya think of American girls??

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: *Whaddaya*

Godwinshelley2: IT WAS VERY WET and up to knees with mud

Rush: (Cough…)

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: It was a dark and muddy night.

Godwinshelley2: I did come home with some yarn, magazines and a few other treasures

Alrisha: Still here

Rush: Very good!

Rush: πŸ™‚

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Old yarn? With sea shantys?

Dave: g/s: great

Phil: That was the extras one shot at cinematic greatness.

Rush: Have you seen this movie before, Alrisha?

Godwinshelley2: No the Sea Shantys are for the HP Lovecraft Historical Society

Louise: But Charlie always challenges the supernatural

Rush: Yes he does!

Nothere: Avast there. I’ sing a sea shanty, but you’d all blush.

Geno Cuddy: i want that sign, put it on my bedroom door

Dave: With sword of truth…

Rush: He is a bit “shocked” at Eve Cairo, later, as she is obviously legit!

Rush: He is disguised as poorly as Jimmy can be!

Geno Cuddy: psychological whiskers, a great punk rock band name

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: GS: I’ve often (about 3.14159 times per year) if HP Lovecraft or/and Hewlett Packard have to pay each other royalties.

Rush: If Dr. Zodiac is psychic, Charlie Chan does not need to be announced!

Geno Cuddy: well Lovecraft is dead, so …

Louise: “Native of the Universe” I am going to use that some day!

Dave: I knew you were coming!

Nothere: No problem boss. I threatned him. He’ll leave no.

Rich Maine: Native of the universe! Aren’t we all?

Rush: Yes, Louise! A pretty big country!

Godwinshelley2: Should I do my front parlor in this velvet curtain & antique style?

Rush: Chan shows his expertise of antiquities.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Geno, i’d hope PSYCHOLOGICAL WHISKERS would be up to tributing Jefferson Airplane’s SURREALISTIC PILLOW!

Mike n Rachel in DC: Yes, Rich. But it sounds so cool. I may change my business cards…

Rush: “The Eye of Allah Matta.”

Dave: This is Grecian Formula

Geno Cuddy: youre speaking my language Angel

Mike n Rachel in DC: Who is the Ear of Ala Mata?

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Alrisha, wonderful as all CC entries are, this one is a toot sweet. It does the twist!

Nothere: Ture people recognize a Honolulu homicide detective all over the planet.

Rich Maine: The great Oz appears

Phil: “Bixby of Berkley” there’s gotta’ be a word play theere.

Rush: I have to say, Zodiac’s costume is probably the most unusual one in the series!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Just get on with it, Swami or whatever your name is!

Hounder has joined this room

Geno Cuddy: dang, Zodiac still creeps me out, good thing my lights are on

Mike n Rachel in DC: Berkeley’s Bixby is bewildered

Geno Cuddy: creepiest Chan villain ever

Rush: Need to be spiritually guided in to the right time?

Louise: Why do spirits always have creepy voices

Phil: Probably what killed her.

Matt1: Hello Hounder!

Mike n Rachel in DC: Paul Essex wishes to speak with Mr. Chan. I wish to get out of this damn balloon.

Nothere: Hey houng

Nothere: Hound even

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Yes, Geno, we agree. Creepster.

Rush: So they will scare the living, I suppose, Louise!

Dave: Get. Balloon. Off.

Mike n Rachel in DC: The spooky sounds in the background sound like the whale noises in Star Trek IV

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: gennnnnntlemennnnnnnn

Godwinshelley2: What would a Scooby Doo Meets Charlie Chan be like? What kind of creepy villian would be in that?

Rush: Yes, Mike!

Dave: Rut-roh!

Hounder: I had a phone call and time kinda got away from me then mom wanted to go to bed.

Dave: Zoiks, need more Scooby snacks

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Well, what ELSE ya gonna do with power? Sheesh!

Mike n Rachel in DC: *rubs hands with evil glee* Twenty dollars!

Godwinshelley2: It’s best to do readings “for entertainment purposes only” to avoid the illegal side

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: How about whales?

Rush: Some may have had suspicions at this point, NT.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Can’t do palm readings on whales, Angel. Maybe sneak a peak at a fin.

Louise: such abad disguise

Rush: Another ineffective disguise.

Phil: Whales?

Hounder: And since I can’t watch the movie tonight cuz somehow the screen on my laptop got cracked. Replacement should be her tomorrow or wed

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: MnR: You’ve got the idea folr cert! Jergens Lotion can probably get rooked into a p;roduct-placement fee, too. Print it!

Godwinshelley2: Ugh – sorry to hear that Hounder

Rush: “Hey, this is mai-tai.”

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Hounder, we here EMPATHIZE!

Mike n Rachel in DC: Rush: :fp:

Rush: Sort of “Egyptian” influence.

Nothere: Speaking of ineffective disguises.

Dave: Need the goofy comic relief in every movie

Rush: yes, Mike!

Rush: A fur for tonight!

Geno Cuddy: Now this is kind of hard to take, if Eve Cairo is so legit, wouldnt she be able to see right through Zodiac?

Godwinshelley2: Yikes that fur

Mike n Rachel in DC: Do only men get leis?

Rush: Yes.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: MnR: We can verify that for you. We have selfies from then, and those guys are in the background.

mda19083: did someone say fur?

Godwinshelley2: I did so like that Gilligan’s Island show

mda19083: maryann was hot

Godwinshelley2: We’ve seen that waiter before

Rush: Rhadini’s wife is jealous of ANY interaction with her husband by woman OR man!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: GS, Lovey was my favorite.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Yes, MDA. The eternal question: Ginger or Maryann?

Rush: “It ya invite me, ya gotta invite my tapewoim.”

Godwinshelley2: You do know the Seven Deadly Sins of Gilligan’s Island?

mda19083: no gs

Nothere: The Proffessor assures us there is no menta poers. Except the mind reading seeds.

Godwinshelley2: Professor – Pride

Godwinshelley2: Ginger – Lust

Dave: Read that Gingers role was turned down by Jayne Mansfield

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Dave, REALLY?? WOW!!

Dave: Her manager/husband turned it down

Godwinshelley2: Skipper – BOTH Anger & Gluttony

Rush: πŸ™‚

Mike n Rachel in DC: Hm. Might have completely reset that debate, Dave.

Nothere: Prepare for flying knives. Even if you never find out the person that tossed it.

Godwinshelley2: Leaving Gilligan as THE DEVIL – keeping them trapped on the island

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: A – M – O – C- O

Rush: Yes.

Rush: Lights out!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: It’s a mug in a mask!

Dave: a/f: haha

Nothere: Did it? I’ve often thought it another scare tactic?

mda19083: he’s no gentleman

Rush: All of the stuff goes wild.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Dave—we can call the union and get a count on the confederates.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Chan trivia question: In how many Chan movies do sudden lights off moments occur?

Dave: DeSoto sponsored Groucho and Warner?

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Did you find the Turk’s Turkish taffy?

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: His towel?

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: His turkey?

Rush: I know that Desoto was a spondor for “You Bet Your Life” back in the day.

Mike n Rachel in DC: Charlie now owes him $5000 for breaking a priceless antique

Dave: A/F: right!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Wouldn’t it be easier for the cops to just pull over speeders & take bribes?

Rush: Ironically, the Turk was wearing an Arrow shirt under the costume!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: We’ll not mention his steaks.

Dave: rush: haha

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Nearer My Chan To Thee!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: TYSM

Mike n Rachel in DC: Ancient hair looks better here, Rush

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Her entrances entrance.

Rush: According to Hollywood Reporter news items and production charts, John Carradine and Joyce Compton were to be included in the cast of this film, but their participation in the completed picture is doubtful. It is of interest, however, to note that two photographs, one that is certainly of John Carradine and another that is very possibly of Joyce Compton, can be seen on a wall in Rhadini’s office

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: We all LOVE this part.

mda19083: places everyone

Rush: Yes, Angel!

Dave: m/f. Some of us only have ancient hair left

Mike n Rachel in DC: oops

Rush: No, we don’t know the roles, but we can maybe guess which roles they might have had, had they actually appraed in the movie!

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: He’ll stick cuz he’s stuck. His earliest eligible retirement date is 1944.

Louise: love this scene

Rush: GS: πŸ™‚

Geno Cuddy: When Laurel and Hardy moved over to 20th Century-Fox, they made a seriesof six films, including A-HAUNTING WE WILL GO in 1942, they utilized the same props from this film including the sphinx statue. In that film it was used by Dante The Magician.

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: Anybody think she was padding her part?

Rush: THAT was a desperate move by Rhadini!!!

mda19083: i knew it!

Rush: πŸ™‚

Angel Louis Stevenson+Fox: PRESTO!

Dave: a/f: yow!
