The grocery store, where I work, just hired a new cashier and we were talking about Dan Aykroyd whom we both have met. And Dan Aykroyd signed his copy of 1941. Well then we really got into how much we both love the film. BTW, Aykroyd couldn't have been nicer to me when I met him years ago, he was very nice!    Posted:   Feb 18, 2017 - 7:54 PM     By:   Christopher Kinsinger   (Member) I ADORE "1941"!!! But I never met anyone associated with it. Great to hear that Dan is the kind of good people I hoped he is.    Posted:   Feb 18, 2017 - 7:59 PM     By:   henry   (Member) I ADORE "1941"!!!

And Dan is easily the nicest celebrity I have ever met.    Posted:   Feb 18, 2017 - 10:50 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) "Ahhh...Horrywood!!"    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 4:57 AM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) If you've read this board for any number of years, you'll know there are quite a few fans of "1941" around out there. They exist.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 5:09 AM     By:   RoryR   (Member) Well, I say, if you find another person that loves 1941... marry him!    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 6:46 AM     By:   Mike_J   (Member) If you've read this board for any number of years, you'll know there are quite a few fans of "1941" around out there. They exist. And i'm one of 'em. Rumour has it it's also Tall Guy's favourite movie ever    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 6:57 AM     By:   RoryR   (Member) My favorite part of the movie, Slim Pickens pretending to take a dump while Christopher Lee and Toshiro Mifune listen to it. High-brow humor at it's best, a glorious mess of a movie.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 7:57 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) 'A glorious mess of a movie' is THE perfect summing up of it. It's terrible and brilliant, sometimes at the same time. I have a lot of like for it and what a fantastic music score John Williams gave it.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 8:02 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) There's some fantastic miniature/model work in the film. And the score was a blast. And Nancy Allen was really sexy. And it had Dumbo in it. So I guess I got something out of it. Anybody see my trivia I posted a month or so ago? The naked lady who got stuck on the periscope was the same model/actress that became Bruce's first victim in Jaws?    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 9:25 AM     By:   MikeP   (Member) If you've read this board for any number of years, you'll know there are quite a few fans of "1941" around out there. They exist. Yep, there are a number of us around here. I laughed out loud in the theater way back when, and even today on Blu Ray, way too long, too big, too loud, I love this goofy movie.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 10:13 AM     By:   mgh   (Member) I love the film. Yes, it is dumb and low brow, but it supposed to be. It was a homage to the comedy of the Three Stooges, Abbott and Costello, and Martin and Lewis. Spielberg did exactly what he wanted to do; the critics just didn't get it.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 10:52 AM     By:   The Wanderer   (Member) I liked it but haven't seen it in years. Will have to rewatch, good reminder.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 11:23 AM     By:   RoryR   (Member) I should get the Blu-ray. Off to Amazon!    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 12:31 PM     By:   Thor   (Member) It's a very weak film (basically 2 hours of non-stop screaming and explosions), and unquestionably Spielberg's worst. Even Williams' score adds to the mayhem, but works better on album.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 12:33 PM     By:   henry   (Member) Hi guys! I know there have been other threads about liking the film, but I didn't think people LOVED it like I do. It's nice to see.Anyone on the fence about buying the Blu-ray should buy it. It has two versions of the film plus extras. If you get it in the STEVEN SPIELBERG DIRECTOR'S COLLECTION it has disc art, but if you get it individually it doesn't. Plus you get DUEL, THE SUGARLAND EXPRESS, JAWS, E.T., ALWAYS, JURASSIC PARK and THE LOST WORLD.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 12:42 PM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) Rumour has it it's also Tall Guy's favourite movie ever I'm going to treat that deserve with the remark it contempts...    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 12:51 PM     By:   Mike_J   (Member) Rumour has it it's also Tall Guy's favourite movie ever I'm going to treat that deserve with the remark it contempts... More an Aliens fan, huh TG?    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 1:33 PM     By:   RoryR   (Member) It's a very weak film (basically 2 hours of non-stop screaming and explosions), and unquestionably Spielberg's worst. Even Williams' score adds to the mayhem, but works better on album. Wow! What a relief. I feared he was going to appear and call it iconic and one of Spielberg's "masterpieces." I think I may have actually gotten Thor to dial back the hyperbole, which is a good thing, but I actually agree with him that it is a weak comedy. It kind of, not quite but almost, makes IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD look like a masterpiece. And now for the defenders of MAD WORLD..... take it away, boys.    Posted:   Feb 19, 2017 - 2:05 PM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) Thor must not have seen The Terminal!!     Non-Film Score Discussion: I found the other person who loves 1941 and...    < 1 2 3  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3
