I did back in 89 when i was 7 years old, it blew my mind and became one of the coolest fantasy films i've ever seen.
You killed Captain Clown, YOU KILLED CAPTAIN CLOWN-The Joker on Batman TAS
I watched it like 40 times as a kid on VHS.
shareI did, and yep, I thought it was pretty bad-ass.
share It use to air on channel 9 every Thanksgiving in the Tristate area. Unfortunately, due to TV station buyouts, lack of imagination, tighter constraints on what could be aired (AKA liberal PC garbage)and a growing emphasis on garbage TV (talk shows, reality shows, bad soap operas, bad comedies) we lost a great tradition. Screw you corporate PC America- Screw You!
Memories, you're talking about memories.
Even worse, it's on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) and since Ted Turner owns the rights it can only play there...
shareTurner... that F'n guy. He bought the to rights to all of the old movies and now the only place that they are shown is on TCM. It's ironic that he doesn't even own those stations anymore. I guess he deserves it for being an uber drunk who appears to have been asleep at the wheel during the AOL/Time Warner merger. Still, that doesn't excuse WOR for turning into a terrible station that only shows bad reality type shows (how many more judge type shows do they need over there?). Seriously, do those shows draw any new viewers in on Thanksgiving? Probably not... It's sad that TV has become so corporate that it (for the most part) isn't even fun to watch anymore.
Memories, you're talking about memories.
I saw this on WOR Channel 9 in New York in the 1970s.
shareI saw it for the first time when I was six, so it would have been in '91 or '92. My first time watching it was on the colorized VHS tape.

The image on the cover looks kinda lazy. I thought it was cool as a kid though. Watching it, I didn't know if it was going to be the original in color or a remake. When it got to the tyrannosaurus scene that I'd heard about at school, I knew it was the Kong movie that I was looking for. I saw it several times in my childhood, but only once as a teenager. I've probably seen it a dozen times as an adult.
I only went back and watched the colorized version one other time though. Every other time, it's been in black and white. I have the color version on VHS. Maybe it'd be fun to watch again just for the alternative look of it.
another classic treasure of the sierra madre was shown on TNT nearly once every two weeks.

I saw this film for the first time on television in the mid-1980's.
