Ricardo Montalban not on Oscars Memorium
ri...@aol.com
The big story is Farrah Fawcett not getting on the Oscars "In
Memorium" segment, but Ricardo Montalban is a bigger surprise. We
know him as Khan, of course, but he had a successful film career back
to the 40s and according to Wikipedia "was the first Hispanic actor to
appear on the front cover of Life" and "was one of only a handful of
actively working Hispanic actors." They had Katy Jurado there several
years ago and she's primarily known for her role in "High Noon."
And how awesome would it have been to see a clip of him as 1982 Khan
in all his glory with Shatner screaming "Khaaaan!" over James Taylor
on the Oscars?

It's a shame that neither were there. A spokesman
from the Academy, in response to leaving out Farrah
Fawcett, said that not all actors can be included. :(

Possibly because they have to fit into a specific timeframe on TV, and
they know all the winning celebrities will want their 30 minutes of thank
yous. :-\

Farrah starred or co-starred in many films ("Saturn 3," "Extremities,"
"Myra Breckenridge," "Logan's Run"), and had two "star
vehicles" ("Somebody Killed Her Husband" and "Sunburn"), neither of
which were breakout performances, of course. That came with "The
Burning Bed" on TV and "Extremities" on stage.
Ricard Montalban, however, was a part of Golden Age Hollywood, as well
as playing Kahn, widely regarded as one of the best film villains
ever.

Yet I'll bet in a "poll on the street" far more people knew him for selling

That he danced with Ginger Rogers and Cyd Charrise would draw blank stares,

They left off all the New Zealand "celebrities" too. ;-)
At Christmas the local TV Guide prints a list of the celebrities who died
during the year. The the 2009 list they included an elephant named Kashin
from the zoo, much to the displeasure of a few idiots who just had to
write in and complain ... but that elephant was very popular with kids for
decades, as well as being the mascot for a kids' savings scheme at a bank
(Kashin = Cash-in). :-)

My point being that Ricardo was a true movie star with a long established
movie career long before a one time bit part in a short-lived 60's sci-fi TV
show.
Farrah, was only one of the original angels, and only on TV, so not really
an Oscar concern.
However do not fear as I have heard a rumor that the next Trek movie will
have Lady Gaa-Gaa reprising the roll of "The Horta" James kirk's past love,
with at least one or two love scenes.
Who cares if it's dumb, and has nothing to do with the original story
line....the kiddies will buy tickets.

You're welcome, just hope it will not get lost as this needs to be

The real tragedy happened 10 years ago when they left out DeForest
Kelley.
Thank God those same people then made sure James Doohan was in their
Oscar 2006 In Memoriam with that epic Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Enterprise pod tour scene where you could actually hear him say "Aye

Two days after "Space Seed" was broadcast, Montalban appeared on the
first-run Mission: Impossible episode (2/18/67).
Less than two months before he appeared on The Wild Wild West (12/30/66)
in a time-travel story.
He was busy that season.

Yet they had Michael Jackson in the In Memoriam tribute. He's not
primarily remembered for the movies, in fact I doubt many people even
remembered "The Wiz" when he died.

How's that different than any other industry? The Oscars are voted
upon by people in the movie industry. They vote for who they thought
did the best work, which is a very different perspective than those of
us who are only in the audience.
Kinda like Anim absolutely hating the TOS-R CGI, because he's in the
industry. Those of us who aren't seem to like TOS-R just fine (some
more than others, but none as scornful of it as Anim.)
If you want Ordinary Joe's opinion, watch the People's Choice Awards.

That has never stopped them from making movies that are knockoffs of TV
shows (like "The Fugitive" and "The Avengers"), and even of video games
("Lara Croft: Tomb Raider").
So movie producers sure get a lot of their "inspiration" from TV and
video games.
Here's a list of other movies based on TV shows:

I never said it was any different. Awards shows are almost always about
being popular, "trendy", etc. rather than what's actually any good.
It's even worse here in New Zealand where we have about three celebrities
and one TV show ... Gee, what not a surprise "Shortland Street" soap wins
again. :-\

Apparently an actor who is primarily known (deservedly or not) as a TV
actor/performer (Farrah Fawcett, Bea Arthur, Henry Gibson) is less
important than a music star who has appeared in a movie.
Makes you wonder if Angela Lansbury will be featured in a Tony Awards
memoriam after "Murder, She Wrote."
Wickeddoll
Yup - it's ridiculous!
I think any actor who has done at least one movie (bad or not) should be
mentioned at the Oscars. If the actor, like Lansbury, has done all
three, he/she should be honored on the Tonys, Emmys and Oscars. Actors
who think they can sing, but don't have any successful work, should
*not* be mentioned on the Grammys, though.

Nimoy actually has a pretty decent voice, but no, he's no "real" singer.
But these days, hardly anyone is. Did you know there is a recording
program called "AutoTune" that corrects wrong notes the "singer" hits
during sessions?! That's not talent, that's special effects!
The ones who can still sound good LIVE are the true artists, IMO.
Lip-synching phonies like Twitney are all flash and trash.

She's not a singer. She's a pop star. BIG difference. If you have the
right look, use AutoTune, and have the right promotion, you're a star.

She's not even a "pop star". After about three sugary tunes she went weirdo
and then fell into the usal child star booze / drugs / tamper tantrums hole.
She should be thankful she's (possibly) getting better and just get out of
show business entirely.

I think she's a pretty good actress, (we must never speak of "Batman and

Okies - been a while since I've owned a dog. I'm more of a cat person.
I knew they liked veggies, but was under the impression their primary
diet is meat.
Out on the loose, don't you think a dog or cat would be more likely to
attack a mammal, than a shrub?

Technically meat is of course the primary food for dogs and cats, but they
tend to be more scavengers than carnivores and will eat almost anything
they can get, especially if they are stray animals.
I meant to say before that a lot of cat and dog food these days contains
veges: peas, corn, beans, etc. rather than just "mystery meat" and "goo".
As well as veges, things like cheese, yoghurt, some fruits like apple,
etc. (ice cream for a treat) can be good for dogs and cats too, unless
obviously they have diary intolerances.
Just like most things, as long as you use common sense (don't feed the
animal a constant diet of just carrot) and stay away from the dangerous
stuff (like chocolate or chicken bones), then it's usually good for them
(there are dogs I know who have by accident eaten lots of chocolate with
no ill effects, but it's not recommended). Something like a raw carrot can
be good for their teeth.
Our dog will happily eat almost any fruit or vegetable and purposely digs
them out of the mixed bowl leaving behind all the dog biscuits (of various
types). It hates banana though and back away from even just the smell of
it. :-)

Friends of mine buy doggie ice cream, because I guess the real thing can
be really bad for them? They also make (from scratch) doggie cookies.
Those things smell awful!

Yep. Many home-made doggie biscuits recipes contain peanut butter, which
makes an awful stink. We have made them once or twice in the past.

Dogs (or any animal) DESERVE to be treated better than many humans,
especially terrorists. :-(
I just got a packet out of the cupbaord. They're called "Pegetables" (made
in tthe USA) and come in carrot, baby-corn and celery shapes / flavours.
From the back of the pack:
Celery: Helps maintain a healthy heart, immune system, liver
urinary tract, and joints.
Corn: Can help appearance of coat. Supports the immune
system, digestive system, and heart.
Carrot: Helps maintain good vision. Can provide nutrients
necessary for energy.

Nope, no doggie parties here ... but birthday / Christmas presents are
sent to my Uncle in England, not by me, which are "from the dog" (he's
always wanted a dog, but can't have one where they live in London). :-)

Nope, she's a blonde (well white really) ... sometimes literally "blonde".
She can be extremely clever and learn quickly, but she can also be
extremely dumb at times.
She's some sort of poodle-crossbreed ... one of the many new breeds around
: Spoodle, Labradoodle, Cockerpoo, etc. There's oodles of "oodles". ;-)

Getting the dog a toy or something at Christmas, Hanukkah, etc., doesn't
bother me at all, and I guess barf-days are OK as well. I just mean the
more elaborate (and ridiculously expensive) shit is outrageous. I love
it when "power couples" insist they don't want children, yet they
anthropomorphize the critter. SHEESH But I gotta admit, the cats and
dogs are way easier to deal with LOL

"Hair salons" in the sense of bathing and trimming the coats I can
understand, but when it goes over-the top and the silly dressing up that I
can't stand, plus the bimbos like Paris Hilton who think a dog should live
in a handbag as a fashion accessory. :-\

It's the other way around - the dog "buys" a present for my Uncle. :-)
Although come to think of it, I think the dog might get Christmas present as
well.

The "oodles" are now registered breeds in their own right, although I think
ours is still a "bitsa" rather than a pure-bred.

They're currently working on the next Indy movie (at the ideas stage), but I
don't know if Jones Jnr Jnr will be in it or not. They kind-of set him up to
take over the role and then apparently changed their minds.

Fart facts:
Men on average pass gas 12 times a day.
Women on average pass gas 7 times a day
The most recommended anti- flatulent remedy, is charcoal tablets.
Men pass on average pass a quart of gas a day in farts..
Pumpernickel, the dark-grain bread, means "goblin that breaks wind" in
Old German
Chewing gum makes you swallow air which makes you fart more.
A man invented a fart cushion made of charcoal, called the Tooter
Trapper, .The air filter, which you sit on, eliminates fart odors .
A tribe of Arabian Bedouins created a language of arcane codes and
warnings through a series of farts.
Farts consist of three-fifths nitrogen, one-fifth hydrogen, one-tenth
carbon dioxide, and small amounts of methane and oxygen
Farts have a temperature of 98.6.
Women fart less than men, but their gas is more concentrated.
There is a website called farts.com where you can hear actual farts.
Farts burn with a blue or yellow flame and a blue flame means there is
methane in the fart.
Farts have been clocked at a speed of 10 feet per second.
The gas that makes your farts stink is hydrogen sulfide. The more
sulfur rich your diet, the more your farts will stink. Some foods that
cause really smelly farts include: beans, cabbage, cheese, soda and
eggs.
People fart even shortly after death
Termite farts are believed to be a major contributor to global warming.
The word fart comes from the Old High German ferzan to break wind
The medical word for a fart is flatus .
Farts are actually gas bubbles produced in the colon by the action of
bacteria on food.
Martin Luther boasted he could 'drive away the evil spirit with a single
fart.
The farts from cows contain enough methane to cause a greenhouse effect
and help speed up global warming.
In 1976 a man's colon exploded when his farts met the surgeon's heated
loop. He died immediately.
The Roman Emperor Claudius believed people should fart when they wanted,
even at parties, and issued an edict allowing farting at parties.
Some public bathrooms in Japan have wall-mounted buttons you push. This
emits a loud flushing noise and covers the noise of a fart
Beans cause farts because they contain sugars that we cannot digest.

If you follow Hollyweird's way of re-naming the original when a new
versions steals its name, then you should get:
Henry Jones Snr
Henry Jones ("Indiana" Jones)

I gave up on it and haven't bothered watching this final season at all. It
is and has been in a silly timeslot for the last few seasons which means I
missed half the episode anyway. The fools in chrage of scheduling here in
New Zealand play a new show in the 8:30pm timeslot, and then after a season
or two move it off into a later timeslot (or drop it entirely).

First one with the name has no suffix, his son has Junior, his grandson

About the only show that does time travel sensibly is Doctor Who, but that's
because they rarely try to make it overly serious or overly complicated. One
of the few exceptions was the episode where Rose went back to see her
father.

The "box office" is no better than any other survey / poll system - it has
problems as well.
Prices keep rising which means it's impossible to properly compare movies
from different times.
"Box office" usually means "America" and doesn't take into account overseas
viewers. A movie may well be a "bomb" in America but a success elsewhere.
"Box office" is also flawed by the fact that some people will see the movie
multiple times, inflating it's "success" with multiple "votes".
On top of that you have the usual statistical manipulation of surveys /
polls that obscures any real results behind faked numbers that simply say
whatever the person paying wants them to say.

I think they're all kinda pointless, actually. But I'm not in the
industry.

Not really. I know lots of people who rarely or never go to a movie
theater anymore (thanks to $4.50 popcorn, etc.) and just wait for DVD
or HBO. Others only go to matinees, when ticket prices are a lot
cheaper. So movies that appeal to older folks make less money than
movies that attract the Friday and Saturday night teen/young adult
crowd. And then there's "Avatar", with its inflated box office take
thanks to the 3D ticket prices.
Brian

No, People's choice covers movies *and* TV. I love it, because we
ordinary, non-Nielsen people get a chance to speak.
"Supernatural" didn't really gain much ground until the fans rallied to
vote it in as "Best SciFi/Fantasy" show, and it won.

Avatar (and others) are of course not only inflated by ordinary 3D, but
also IMAX versions, as well as James Cameron's planned re-release later
this year with extra footage.
Even if People's Choice or box office worked, it's still only measures
quantity (via popularity) and not quality. The same thing happens in all
the TV shows where the "winner" is usually the person who attracted the

The first season or so of the resurrected show was awful thanks to the
farting aliens, man-eating wheelie-bins, etc., but it got better later on,
especially once the grinning big-eared clown left.
The first season or so of the spin-off show "Torchwood" tried too hard to
be "adult" by being over-sexed, but hopefully it has got better now (I
haven't seen it due to the usual timeslot issues).
You could always start with the kiddy spin-off (or kiddier since Doctor
Who is really a kids' show) "The Adventures of Sarah Jane", although I
haven't seen any of that.

"kids"?!?! They didn't look like kids on the promos for his silly "reality"
TV show. The youngest might have been a teenager, but the rest would have
been older (the older ones were away at university).
Anyway, I did say "a few more decades" ... 5 or 6 is still "a few" even
though it does equate to 50 - 60 years. :-)

You've got to realise he was a boxer, so he obviously didn't have much
intelligence to begin with and then had most of his braincells killed off in
the bxoing ring, so naming all his kids "George" simply makes it easier for
him to remember their name. ;-)

But their legal name is still "George" - it's the most idiotic and
narcissistic thing I've ever seen.

hehehe - sorry, he doesn't get an Ali-esque pass. He has a successful
business, and still does some acting.
I still say he's an egomaniacal asshole.
