Re: Warner Oland's Birthday Movie on TCM, 10/04/09

Dear Steve,

Thank you for the update/reminder. After we all enjoy the movie, perhaps we should thank TCM and then begin planning for our campaign for next year.

Yes, we can record the movie and then decide whether we should include it as a Chat film in the future. My thoughts on this are that if we deviate from showing strictly Chan movies, it should be a rarity, as it could become confusing to some with time. Perhaps we could have a once-a-month Friday or Saturday evening "Non-Chan Chan Night." At that time we could share non-Chan films that featured Chan actors/actresses.

Sincerely,
Rush

Rush,
I'm going to try to tape it but I have a small problem. . . .

I went into the hospital early Thursday morning for the same thing I went in mid-June and . . . surprise! . . . they kept me there until this morning.

Seems I'm okay today (with an oxygen level of 99%) but I have to go get another CT scan in 3 months to check the cut-glass (that's how they look) particulates in both lungs.

Doesn't that sound like fun, kiddies!

But back to good news! I do hope that this marks the first of TCM playing more Oland - and Chan - movies!

I tend to agree with Rush on this matter.

I personally think the Monday night chats should be reserved for Charlie Chan films. If there are other non-Chan films that are of interest to our group, there is no reason why we couldn't reserve another/specific night per month to view them. Heck, the chat room is at our disposal 24/7.

Just my opinion. I'd do/say anything to spend another night watching a classic film with you all!
