Prime Time

No Keith.  No Jon.  No Stephen.

Ultimate Car Build Off looks like fun, last week (repeated @ 8) they built cars out of the front half of front wheel drive cars.

What I think I’m going to watch is Hornblower.  It’s part of Gregory Peck night on Turner Classic, but the attraction to me is I’m a huge C. S. Forester fan.  The 1951 film is an adaptation of Beat to Quarters, Ship of the Line, and Flying Colors.

Since it’s a Hollywood film it concentrates a lot on his courtship of his second and better connected trophy wife Lady Barbara (sister of Arthur Wellesley) and not his more realistic and problematic first wife Maria.

Later-

Dave has Sylvester Stallone, Rob Corddry, and Robyn.  I wonder if Corddry is going to talk about Children’s Hospital.

Alton does tomatos.  The Venture Brothers has The Terrible Secret of Turtle Bay.

      The movie is kind of a mess in comparison, though it was adapted by Forester himself and so is not as bad as some.

        but rather erratically.
