Introduction to the weekly episode discussions

Hey folks, need a hand. I am looking for the clip or entire episode whereby Curly "volunteers". As I vaguely recall the boys are in the Army, the Drill Sargent is pacing back and forth with his head down and states that he needs a Volunteer. Naturally, Larry and Mo take a huge step back and when the Sargent looks up, he believes that Curly has willingly volunteered. Please assist. THANKS.

Going to try and get the next Laurel and Hardy review this weekend. This time it's a short, but after this week, a feature!

metaldams · **Reply #328 on:** June 21, 2018, 07:25:45 PM

Apologies for the delay, will get my next review up next weekend, especially since Paul's latest Keaton review is up. Ever have everything go to Hell at the same time, even the car? Oy vey. Will be back to normal soon.

I am in delay as I psychologically recover from having my Ph.D. dreams crushed once again... this time permanently.

Paul, sorry to hear it, man. I know it's a lot of work trying to get a P.H.D. Take all the time you need, but ironically, you only have one more short to go. Still, take your time.

My latest Laurel and Hardy is now up.

My condolences to you, Paul - goes without saying that much of the PhD is dependent on the project and advisor - don't know if that was your case, but I know there are lousy projects that make it through and solid ones that don't. Anyway, my hat's off to you for trying - not many individuals do.

Couldn't find a professor who had research funding

Sorry to hear about that. Take as much time as you need, Paul.

The first Educational era Keaton short review is now up, so we'll officially be rotating from that to a Laurel and Hardy film week by week for the next several months.

Going to get the next Laurel and Hardy review in Monday or Tuesday.

New Laurel and Hardy review up, next Keaton this weekend.

Umbrella Sam · **Reply #337 on:** August 15, 2018, 06:14:51 PM

Currently traveling. I'm hoping to do both reviews this weekend when I get home.

Paul Pain · **Reply #338 on:** August 16, 2018, 11:06:06 AM

I have finally secured a position for my future. I should be really in tune with things starting this January.

Congrats! I hope you're happy with what you'll be doing. At age 39 I've finally found a job I can at least stomach and it has made a huge difference in my demeanor. May happiness and fulfillment with what you do come your way, then the money, leggy supermodels, luxurious mansions, and servants will follow.

. Good luck, and get a good blu ray player and a ton of classic comedy films to review after a few paychecks.

Laurel and Hardy review up. Keaton coming shortly.

Paul Pain · **Reply #343 on:** September 03, 2018, 08:14:29 AM

What better way to celebrate my 25th (August 28th, for those nyuk-nyuks wondering) than by watching three of my favorite, if not my top three, Curly shorts: DISORDER IN THE COURT, MEN IN BLACK, and THEY STOOGE TO CONGA.

As a late gift, the latest Keaton review is now up.

New Laurel and Hardy turkey review up.

Going to be another two-fer Friday coming up with Laurel and Hardy/Keaton.

metaldams · **Reply #347 on:** September 21, 2018, 12:34:28 PM

Buster Keaton and Laurel and Hardy reviews both up!

In two weeks the next film for the Laurel and Hardy spot would be The Devil's Brother, a feature. I'm debating whether to do it or not and it depends on how you guys respond. Due to Warners owning it, along with Bohemian Girl, it's on a different DVD set than the 10 disc set and doesn't appear to be available online as far as I can tell. So Chief, Sam, Paul, since only you three guys normally respond, do any of you guys have access to The Devil's Brother or Bohemian Girl? If so, I'll do it, if not, I'll skip and go to the next short. I do have a copy myself.

Big Chief Apumtagribonitz · **Reply #348 on:** September 21, 2018, 06:57:37 PM

Sorry, I don't have either, I wish I did, I loved both when I was a kid.

Umbrella Sam · **Reply #349 on:** September 21, 2018, 10:18:57 PM

Yes, I have access to both of them. Really looking forward to THE DEVIL’S BROTHER, as I’ve heard some really good things about it. Apparently BONNIE SCTOLAND has some narrative problems, though.
