I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Not until I read these comments/thoughts did it conjure up my memories of this show. I stumbled across his last episode (with Dennis Miller) one night recently, too, while checking out old cassettes. Classy? Urbane? Irreverent in all the right moments? there's no one that can touch this guy! Craig Ferguson can somewhat emulate by having the most unknown or who'd-a-thunk to interview that guest, and do a credible job of being genuinely interested in them, but Tom had an edge that kept you so engaged, and to do that 'til 2a.m. is a rare gift! I can't believe I miss him as much as I do. I have absolutely no regrets of the many nights I 'wasted'(?) staying up way too late but oh-so-enjoying and savouring the seconds spent watching Tom Snyder. If his show was available on DVD it'd be something to treasure. He was truly unique.

I can't believe I'm the first to comment on this show! Anyway, last week we lost one of the greatest broadcasters in the talk-show medium: Tom Snyder. His infectious laugh, his tangents at the beginning and end of his show, and his wonderful rapport with his guests, one-on-one with no audience, made him one of the most unique talents to come on television. I accidentally stumbled upon his last show with Dennis Miller while looking for something else on one of my unlabeled tapes and I sat spellbound just marveling at how classy and boisterous Mr. Snyder was. So, in tribute to the departed man, I'll end with his quote, "Let's fire up a colortini as we watch the pictures fly through the air!"
