Whiskey Hicks Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 So I first caught Ace High with Terrence Hill and the big guy he’s always with. I enjoyed it as a fun little Western caper oddly enough. I saw he has a few Spaghetti Westerns on Amazon Prime. Next I checked out My Name is Nobody with him and Henry Fonda. It’s absolutely absurd. Though now I know where the famous slapping, pistol whirling scene in the bar is from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Henry Fonda and Westerns was not a good mix, in my opinion. When I was in the Navy we had those two flicks aboard ship to watch on SITE TV (ship’s internal television... something). I think there was another one as well. Anyway, they are amusing once. Not numerous times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkey Flats Jack Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 My name is Trinity and my name is still Trinity are a couple more of his. I enjoyed them but yeah not ones I'd watch over and over on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 2 channels that had 2 movies that ran back to back on both channels and they'd change the movies every 30 days when I was stuck in the Marine berthing area. I don't miss those days lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't miss those days lol We only had the one channel and it was only up starting at ship's knock off until Taps. The guy that ran SITE TV was a moody American Indian fellow that seemed to hate everyone on the ship. If people complained about his selections for us he would play movies like "The Sound of Music" or some other lame***ed movie just to tick people off. Then one day there was a blanket party....

Hey, I liked the Sound of Music. The plot line was a bit thin, based on "a real story". The music was fun and at that age, I though Angela Cartwright was hot.

I think he now works for one of the networks. Got a promotion when he suggested playing Dirty Dancing all day Christmas day on one network and A Christmas Story all day on another. I don't care what the movies is, playing it continuously for 24 hours is just plain dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howlin Mad Murdock SASS #4037 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 My Name is Nobody is my favorite Western, Tombstone is second. I know, blasphemy. They Call me Trinity, and, Trinity is Still my Name are the other two movies, not as good, but still entertaining. On my last boat ride the guy in charge of the movies had a thing for Chuck Norris, every fricken' night. I haven't watched a Chuck Norris movie since 1987.
