Galaxy Quest tv series first season DVD

-

 

I saw the movie Galaxy Quest in 2000. As a Star Trek fan I could appreciate the parody but also the performances by everyone involved were great. The movie has actors who played heroes in a television space opera being pulled into space by aliens that think they are really the characters they portrayed and high jinks ensue. For this post I wanted to show what a DVD release of the first season would look like if the series was real.

WHAM! Sons of Jack and Albert 1990

  Wham! were huge in the 1980s. When they broke up George Michael's career soared. Even though Andrew Ridgeley was half of Wham! when I would mention his name people would ask "Who?". If I replied he was "the other one from Wham!" people understood. The same year Michael released L isten Without Prejudice Vol.1  Ridgeley released his solo album Son of Albert . I chose three of Ridgeley's songs for this: "Shake" (which was a single from the album), "Baby Jane" and "Red Dress" (which has Michael on backing vocals). https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCHnLE0OxajFoVCvBXRdUERbUvRqe2RNk&si=JrjyUkQfyxejE1Dl

Breakfast at Tiffany's starring Marilyn Monroe 1961

          It is hard to imagine the movie  Breakfast at Tiffany's  without Audrey Hepburn. Her image as Holly Golightly has been on posters, t-shirts and just about anything else you can buy. However when the author of "Breakfast at Tiffany's", Truman Capote, heard that she going to be cast in an adaptation of his book he thought she was terribly miscast. He had wanted Marilyn Monroe to play his lead character. She was offered the role but was advised against it. A young Steve McQueen was offered the male lead but was unavailable. The role that I would like to see recast is Mickey Rooney as Mr. Yunioshi. Couldn't they have gotten someone more appropriate like Alec Guiness or Marlon Brando? The original director was to have been John Frankenheimer.      If they had gone with those original choices the film could have been quite different. I believe Hepburn was responsible for Givenchy designing her character's wardrobe. Henry Mancini was ...

Wizard of Oz with Shirley Temple 1939

  The Wizard of Oz  went through many changes from start of production to finished film. Mutiple screenwriters wrote assorted drafts, the original director, Richard Thorpe was fired after a week to have all his scenes reshot by new director Victor Fleming, and the cast could have been quite different.  Before Judy Garland captured the role of Dorothy the studio considered borrowing Shirley Temple from 20th Century Fox. She was closer to age of protagonist in the book but her singing voice wasn't quite right for the songs in the movie. Another consideration was Deanna Durbin, who had a beautiful singing voice and was six months older than Garland.  W. C. Fields was first chosen as the Wizard. I think he could have been great as Professor Marvel and the various disguises of the Wizard but Frank Morgan was so good in the film I feel he was the right choice. Ray Bolger was originally cast as the Tin Man and Buddy Ebsen as the Scarecrow but Bolger wanted switch parts. Bud...
