*****

From the time that “Disney’s Folly” paid off and the first-ever animated feature, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, became a hit, Disney (the company that Walt created) has been in the business of telling fairy tales. What we sometimes forget is that fairy tales can be stories that reassure children, but also stories that scare the bejeezus out of them. Case in point, the first film that I ever saw: Walt Disney’s Bambi, a film that also terrified Stephen King as a child.

The Herbie series is much more on the reassuring side of the spectrum than the scary side, »

10 (Kind Of) Great Classic Sci-Fi Flicks You May Have Never Heard Of

16 March 2012 11:27 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

We know the greats; movies like Metropolis (1927), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), Star Wars (1977).

And there are those films which maybe didn’t achieve cinematic greatness, but through their inexhaustible watchability became genre touchstones, lesser classics but classics nonetheless, like The War of the Worlds (1953), Godzilla (1954), Them! (1954), The Time Machine (1960).

In the realm of science fiction cinema, those are the cream (and below that, maybe the half and half). But sci fi is one of those genres which has often too readily leant itself to – not to torture an analogy — producing nonfat dairy substitute.

During the first, great wave of sci fi movies in the 1950s, the target audience was kids and teens. There wasn’t a lot in the way of “serious” sci fi. Most of it was churned out quick and cheap; drive-in fodder, grist for the Saturday matinee mill.

By the early 1960s, »

'Talk' Host Guests On 'Young And The Restless'

8 February 2012 3:45 PM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Sheryl Underwood, co-host on "The Talk," is a "Young and The Restless" super-fan. Last month, she received the offer of a lifetime from "Y&R" actor Christian LeBlanc, who offered her a guest role on the soap. Wednesday on "The Talk," Sheryl shared some behind-the-scenes footage of her big debut, and Eric Braeden, who plays the dashing Victor Newman on "Y&R," stopped by to provide the panel with a report on Sheryl's on-set behavior.

"She was very sedate, very quiet, very calm, very collected," he said, before adding with a wry smile, "but rather excited."

Julie Chen had Underwood's "Y&R" dressing room star framed, and presented it to her with a caveat. "You're going to need it again," Chen explained, "because you've been invited back for an encore performance." Chen warned Braeden that although Underwood would try to stay on at "Y&R," she was needed back at "The Talk. »
