  • Although, due to getting back into work and the long daylight hours up her in the summer - I only managed 13 showings.

    I must do better in 2022! 🤞

      • Just watched another new acquisition, "Dad Boot" , classic U boat action film, with beautiful unfaded color. Very important, as all the action takes place in a dark, claustrophobic German U boat. Super 8 optical sound, German film but with a dubbed English soundtrack. Also, it is bin it's original letterbox!

        • My Das Boot is still the original German.

          -but when a bunch of sailors are screaming in terror about the seawater rising around them, no translation is required!

          • I don't know German as a language, (besides what I have gleaned from classic WW2 films), so I am most happy with it.

              What a cool one to have in your collection, Osi!

              I’m currently saving up for a new Steve Osborne REEL IMAGE print for 2022! Always worth putting all those Penny’s in the piggy bank.

                  I love Jamie Lee Curtis in that one! A lot of fun. Amazing to see how far her career has come since HALLOWEEN.

                  • Just about clinging to Christmas watched The Snowman, alarmingly going faded. Not to worry it has entertained many and not just in this household over the years.
                    Might see a new release of this yet you never know to renew it.
                    Ended with the vintage Arrow release of Jack and the Beanstalk animated purchased as a child. The films the same with sound but i seem to have aged ....a little

                    • Closing out the year before I go to work on New Years Eve and setting a personal best at the same time

                      7pm
                      The Wizard of Oz 400 foot digest showing with George Orwell's Animal Farm

                      • I was about to say to Ali that 13 showings in a year is still to be applauded....... that is 13 more than most of the worlds population and an average of just over once a month...... Then I read Chip's post above and that blows everything out of the water ! Well done Chip !

                        For me, I am now done and dusted with super 8 for 2021. I suspect my total showings for the year (without checking back on this and the equivalent 16mm thread) would be around 20 - 25. I anticipate my next show will be 8th January after I have raided the CHC winter sale in Cleethorpes over that weekend, and checking what new films I purchased!

                        Happy New Year everybody !
