Crash of Moons (1954)
I disagree with Blazing 1 from Queens
I completely disagree with the previous review. The special effects for this show were above and beyond their limited budget. Other shows of this genere that had limited budgets that did well include Star Trek for one. They used salt shakers for equipment fer crying out loud. The plot line for Crash was a little corny, but look at the time period that it was made in. TV was in it's infancy and it's targeted audience were the kids of the 50's, you know..."Baby Boomers". Their older brothers & parents didn't have TV. They only had radio serials like Superman & Jack Armstrong. As you said about "Poor Cleolanta", she was a total hottie for any age. She has the most beautiful eyes & pretty face. Winky, played by Scotty Beckett, if you didn't recognize him was Scotty from the Little Rescals, you know the one with the hat on backwards. John Banner, who later played lovable Sgt Schultz (I know nothinnnnngggg) played Bavarro. Sally Mansfield, who later was a regular on The Bachelor Father in the early 60's, played Vena Ray. She was fairly hot also. I guess it's all about individual taste. You also have to remember that a lot of plot lines and gizmos from this show were borrowed by the later shows. The best thing to say is watch it 7 make up yer own mind.
Here We Go Again (1942)
Great movie You'll love it
I agree that it brings back to memory a time when people were proud of their country. We could all take lessons from a time in our history when it wasn't "all about me". I hate to be preachy so I'll talk about the movie. There wasn't much storyline, but if you like their old time radio show you will love this flick. The musical numbers are great & so are the characters. I hope you will watch it & enjoy it as much as My wife & I (& kids) did. It helped to introduce my kids to OTR. They already liked Abbott & Costello movies (they didn't know about their OTR shows), but really started to enjoy Fibber McGee & Molly as a result of this movie. It put a face to the voices of Gildy & Wimple (who they already knew as the voice of Droopy). It's not often you can be so entertained by a "history lesson" is it?
