Is that, like, Canada's great..."The Cat Came Back." Is that, like, Canada's greatest contribution to the art of film or something. I remember seeing it when it aired on American television when I was a little kid. The song pretty much stuck in my head... forever. Years later, they showed it to us in a media class in college. Because the instructor said it was great, the sycophantic hordes practically slobbered all over the film, gushing at how original, creative, and brilliant it was.<br /><br />Granted, it's memorable; at least, the earworm of a song is (coincidentally, I caught myself humming it in the car on the way to work just this past week).<br /><br />But, like, it's gotta be thirty years old now. Hasn't Canada produced anything worthwhile or memorable in the meantime? Other than "The New Red Green Show," I mean?<br /><br />Gosh how I miss Possum Lodge.<br /><br />I'll have to check out your "Pan" review and the Harryhausen site. I hope it has the sequence where the Ymir from Venus fights the elephant. As a kid I always thought that looked so amazingly real. I wonder if it holds up?<br /><br />I'm sure you'll now regret having linked to your blogger sites from LJ. ;-)<br /><br />(I think I have a blogger sign-in... I'll have to see if I can remember it).<br /><br />-davidddaviddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06272332231221860175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6981782.post-1869950989525408932007-01-25T21:52:00.000-08:002007-01-25T21:52:00.000-08:00Great links.
