science fiction double feature

I know. I've not been around much. Sorry. I've been out of town and just working too much? Maybe. Who knows. Regardless, the next few weeks don't really look like they'll be much more conducive to blogging, but I will try to pop in here when I can.

I've talked about the Detroit Film Theatre a few times. I like the place. It's really one of my 3 favorite places to watch a movie (the other two being my living room and my friend's living room). Well, this year they're doing a summer season for the first time. Now, they'll still be showing classy pictures, but, more importantly they're doing double features on Saturdays. 1 Harryhausen movie and 1 Toho movie. Including a couple of my favorites, Gojira and Jason and the Argonauts. The only thing better would have been a Beast From 20,000 Fathoms/Gojira double feature. THAT would be awesome. Giant stop motion monsters and men in rubber monster suits. Yeah. Exactly. I know what I'll be doing when I'm in town this summer. Check it out.
