Fake Cereal Boxes


I know that old cereal boxes are highly collectible but did you know that they were so popular that there would actually be a demand for reproductions? ($18 each!) They do look good and he even does 'fake' cereal boxes (like KISS).


Created with flickr slideshow.

Star Wars Home Movies From the Late 1970's



I couldn't figure out how to embed this VIMEO clip so I am giving a link. Lots of cool behind the scenes type footage, most of it has been seen before in some form or another but this is a different glimpse into the making of this classic.

Halcyon Highlights 1977




A decent compilation from this late 1970's Calypso label. There are a few clunkers in here but overall it is a decent album. I recently picked up a bunch of other Steel Band/Calypso albums that I will be posting over the next few weeks.

Turkish Spider-Man



Turkey always made some GREAT ripoff films and this one is no exception. But it's also the last of the Spider-man rip-offs that I can find so please let me know (in the comments) if you know of any others.

Italian Spider-Man



Holy crap! Is this real?

Yesterday it was the Japanese Spider-Man and today it's the Italian Spider-Man. What will tomorrow bring?

(I have to get a copy of this one, anyone?)

To The Moon - a 6 Record Set (From Time-Life Records)





I got this great 6 record set a few weeks ago from a local thrift store (three bucks) and wanted to save it for today, the fortieth anniversary of a man from our planet walking on the moon but when I opened it I found that I had two record 3's and no record 4. I was going to scrap the project but I was already half way in so I figured I would post what I have as it is really some pretty good stuff as it traces the history of the US space program from World War II until 1970.

(If anyone has MP3's of the missing record, please share!)


Sample: Richard Nixon speaks to the astronauts on the moon

Spider-Man: Double Track (Fan Film)



Spider-Man from other countries and now from the U.S., but this one is from a group of amateurs. It can't be any worse than that live action Spider-Man tv show from the late 70's!

Top 10 Saturday Morning Superhero Cartoons



As a kid I don't think that I noticed that most of my late 70's and early 80's favorites really didn't have any violence (come on, superheroes that don't punch the bad guys?) but that probably wouldn't have stopped me from watching anyway! This list mostly represents some snapshot of what was going through my mind during my Saturday morning cartoon years (late 1970's through the early 1980's) and doesn't necessarily represent my modern day judgment.



#10. The Impossibles
A superhero musical group? I tried to keep out most of the 'campy' superhero shows but I always did enjoy this one.

Episode 1 - The Bubbler




#9. The Galaxy Trio
I missed this one during it's initial run but caught it during it's many rerun cycles.

Episode 1 - And the Sleeping Planet




#8. The New Adventures of Batman (with Bat-Mite)
Another one that we watched despite some silly sidekick! The Adam West Batman was running at the same time (in reruns) so it was natural that I would watch this one as well.

The Trap




#7. The Fantastic Four (1967)
I was always a big FF fan so this one was a no-brainer for me. I did watch that crappy 70's Torch-less version too and enjoyed it but this one was better.

Episode 16 - The Micro-World of Dr. Doom




#6. Plastic Man
I don't think that I really knew that this guy was a comic character until the show came along (in the opening credits they say something about 'from the pages of DC comics') and I don't think that I ever read it as a kid but I did like the cartoon.

Episode 1 - The Weed





#5. Underdog
I definitely missed the original run of this one but always loved it in reruns. I can still watch this one as an adult and that speaks a lot for this show!

Episode 1





#4. The Marvel Superheroes Show (1966)
The animation was crude but the show was a rerun staple for many years due to the lack of any other good superhero cartoons in syndication.

The Origin of Captain America






#3. Spider-Man (1967)
I didn't see it during it's initial run but it was a staple in our household during the weekday after school cartoon blocks. That opening sequence was always one of the greatest in modern cartoon history too!

Intro (with Theme Song)




#2. Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends
Three superheroes with some better than average quality animation? Count me in!

Episode 1 - The Triumph of the Green Goblin





#1. The Superfriends (all incarnations)
If you have ever seen a Cool-Mo-Dee Saturday Morning Cartoon post there could be no doubt

Episode 1 - Rokan, Enemy From Space

The Earth Dies Screaming

I just finished watching this movie and had to post a few screenshots:






I think that they died from laughter after seeing these extremely menacing looking alien robots...



Taglines (courtesy of imdb.com):

Who... Or What Were They... Who Tried To Wipe All Living Creatures Off The Face Of This Earth?

Be There When...

Why Were They Out To Kill Every Living Thing On Earth?

They Came From The Heavens... And Sent The World Into Hell!

Swiss Family Robinson (Comic Strip From 1926)


Another nearly lost comic strip and another fine example of early comic art.
