For the record, this is not a closed forum. I personally handle the bulk of board maintenance and the other Godfathers (both Richard and Rob) kindly agreed to temporarily disable new memberships while I am away working on new restoration projects. Anyone claiming anything to the contrary is incorre...

Okay, wasting even further time, I realized last night that I did indeed have a digital transfer of the scene in CAREFUL PLEASE that John Wayne is incorrectly alleged to appear in, we used it for SLAPHAPPY, so here are a few scans from the transfer. Remember, this is a fast moving scene,with undercr...

Now it gets truly psycho: http://dukefanclub.blogspot.com/2012/04/open-letter-to-richard-m-roberts-and.html One does not even really feel like answering such a frothing-mouth bit of nonsense, except maybe a few points. I know I need not repeat my credentials to anyone around here, and my credentials...

Just out of idle amusement, I looked over at Ms. Reid’s John Wayne fan club page today and I see that, at least in her mind, the CAREFUL PLEASE craziness continues. I see that she has deleted her old paper that I referenced that showed that even in her own timeline and research that there was no way...

Ms. Elly Reid (the person who makes the claim to have spotted Wayne in the film and is ...

Lets just say we're putting a myth to bed before it spreads: I was glancing over at the other minor silent comedy newsgroup this morning and saw someone getting all hot and bothered that they had "discovered" John Wayne as an extra in CAREFUL PLEASE starring Lloyd Hamilton. John Wayne once...

Just found this old post after perusing the old threads. Gary, I've never, EVER, encountered anyone who didn't appreciate Vernon Dent's talent before. He's an essential ingredient to the overall success of so many Stooge two-reelers; take Vernon Dent out of the equation and The Boys' shtick could b...

Great Post Joe! And a Happy April Fools Day to you!
