Still one of my favorite SF films, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS has still only been at the Marathon once (plus a lightly attended "Special Edition" showing upstairs at the Coolidge at a Night Flight). Looooooooooong overdue for a return visit. Here's Spielberg at Devil's Tower in Wyoming:

The T. Rex is of the maninsuitasaurus, the Plesiosaurs is a puppet but sort of cool and we have live action lizards but it is kinda fun and we have not shown it.

I bring you peace. It may be the peace of plenty and content or the peace of unburied death.

Okay, two can play at the size alteration game.

...

The cast of one of the later Godzilla film relaxes between takes.
I did not know the big G played guitar. Supposedly he was always trying to talk the directors into letting play on camera. One rumor said that a number WAS filmed but test audiences reacted badly and it was replaced with shots of Godzilla flying.

Yeah I think the pic might be faked too.  Grin
 

I can't complain but sometimes I still do. Life's been good to me so far.

Very odd week watching the events from afar. I'm glad justice appears to have been done. Glad it seems to be over.

Be safe, folks.

we won't have justice until we get apologies from all the people who said the bombers were probably from the tea party.

Gee, you try and post a unifying photo when everybody is exhaling from a long week.

If you want to go pick a fight with David or Dan Kimmel, send them a PM or find them on Facebook.

And, I'm certain that Kirok will lead those from his side of the aisle in apologizing for his colleagues' politicizing remarks................

Any further such negative off-topic political posts will be deleted without notice.

I know there were decades of supposed technical improvements done during the interim, but, I still think that (the real Argo story) John Chambers' APES work is superior to that in the wretched Marky Mark/Tim Burton atrocity. More of Chambers' stellar work:

The day after being announced, ZARDOZ has been cancelled for the Ohio Marathon. Hard to believer a major film magazine would put THIS photo on it's cover!  Shocked

Kubrick shows Peter Sellers how to properly sit in a wheelchair. Did Raymond Burr have such a talented coach?
