hello folks..
im all pumped as i got this dvd thatwas really cool by woody wise..a 80
year old collector in Hollywood..who ran theaters andhis friends that
come to his house on sat morn towatch movies..are the kind of people i
love in meomorabilia..
these guys are the real deal...they are initas they loved films and
still do..andwoody looks lke he has about every book made on
Hollywood..the other guys inthe film are former animators at hanna
Barbera, a old rock musician, and even some nonindustry peple ..kinda
like mopo...
so it proved my point..the collecting part i col but the passion part is
even better... Wdyran projectors andtheaters onthe eat coast and has
sevela pages on facebook..ive been onthem years and didnt even know
until he emailed me..he just turned 80 on sun...im thinking man life is
so short aas hee we are 20years apart andi just met him...whatamazes me
arethese older collectors they have such a wealth of experience,
knowledge, and here i am i know very little..it just notsem
fair....thenther is theanimatorwho lost use of his right hand,,from
Parkinsons...and so he learned to draw left handed...itwas like these
popcorn brothes ,,made this film to inspire guys like me...!!!so i ask
you to go buya copy and se yourself what i have been talking about all
these years of what collecting should be about...as it is a
brotherhood...and they only allow 10 people to be in the group asits a
small house...and how they get new members is whe someone dies...its a
very touching documentary
there is so much eyey candy inthe film youwill be in awe ofjust the
location,,giant 6 sheets and woody likes serials socharlie
chan,westerns,,,you name it...but to see the guys interact is like
everyone you ever met on mope, cinevent and hollywood show all meeting
up..and the biggest thrill for me was the comradery of these gentlemena
andone guys warehouse looks like my old place stuffed with all kinds
ofstuffand he hadd the same feelings i do..as it comes in and we get
addicted and in love with the stuff..but the stuff is many times noteven
liked by the future generations....somany focus onthe
saleability.....andwhatcommands high prices..i never did i just liked
the films and stuff because i would say buy if yu loveit incase you get
stuck with it...as if its worthless..ou are still happy to have it...how
many of us bought quanity andstill are being drowned in it??? i tell my
son,,im notconcerend what itwill be worth 40years from ow..im 61 id be
100...so i am happy to see it gone now so others can share inthe delight
ofholding a old memorabilia peice,,i get more joy from getting it toa
uture owner then i do the money part..but it helps wheni can fund my
overhead and abilty to give awa stuff by making a few bux..now and
then...s orderwoodys dvd you will havea fun time and get some popcorn
and hang with the brotherhood of popcorn guys..they area coool bunch..
btw im just passing this on....Ill offer stuff forsale in my next post..
I just was so thrilled with this dvd i had to say something..

where they show retro stuff...
