duxastrogirl Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 There was a very well made biographical television movie about them...I think NBC made it ltwo years ago. Most of the facts Robotnut mentioned are there and others...I don't know if it was ever released as a DVD but for the fanatics can be an interesting source.

Morbius Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 I thought that was a really well done movie. Gave a good idea of what they went through with MGM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duxastrogirl Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 ;) I use the time machine and corrected my post...cause I kind of deleted two words involuntarily and it seemed I meant something else!! Yeah Morbius I think the movie was very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe K. Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Forbidden Planet, MGM, 1956 1956 Premium Distributors Co. catalog cover and interior page. The Celestialier ceiling fixture (or one like it) was wall mounted in the film. Could Morbius' desk lamp have come from the same source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fineas J. Whoopie Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Joe -So how many times have you seen Forbidden Planet? Didn't you have it on in the museum all day long every day for years? I bet you had these set pieces memorized before you googled them for the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robotnut Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Joe, thanks for rescuing this almost 20 year old post !!! It was fun to remember what I used to know about the Stooges. I truly have forgotten more about the Stooges then most people know MeTV, that we watch over air from Detroit, has a movie host called Svengoolie. Svengoolie is a cross between the Ghoul and Sir Graves Ghastly. His Saturday night show starts with an hour of the Stooges and then a classic monster movie. His movie rotation includes Forbidden Planet, Godzilla and The Day the Earth Stood Still. Love the spacey mid century lamps. I've been know to have a few of them. Right now they are in storage, but I do have a bit of vintage decor around the house. You can see more at http://www.kingofkitsch.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
