"Sappho '68"

Sappho '68 (1968) is an early tittie flick/shocking expose of lesbianism. Five then unknown actresses show skin, including full frontal from three of them. One of the women didn't remain unknown, but grew up to be Uschi Digard. This is the earliest film I have seen of her, and her breasts are just large here, but not yet enormous. She is a photographer who has never had a boyfriend. She hires a lesbian model to pose, and the two end up lovers. They go out to a lesbian nightclub, and watch two topless, then naked women box. Then we are treated to the model's former lover being bored by a naked performer. Finally, the jilted lover gets even with Uschi and the model.

There is no dialogue. Everything is narrated. Most of the footage has excellent image quality, but there are a few very rough areas, probably mastered from a different print than most of the film. Uschi shows breasts, buns, and a wisp of pubic hair seen from the back. The model shows breasts and buns. The other unknown women show everything. This is a curiosity, and a source for early Uschi nudity, and little else. Fans of Uschi will want to rent it, but it not good erotica. D.

    "The Boys from Brazil"

    The Boys from Brazil (1978) is one of those classic great movies that I had somehow never seen. In case there is someone else who doesn't know about this film, a group of Nazis who have cloned Adolf, and had them adopted into the same sort of family that Hittler had.It is now time to kill the adopted fathers, just as Hittler's own father had died when he was young. A noted Nazi hunter is out to stop him.

    We see breasts from Linda Hayden, who is in bed with one of the fathers when he is hit. An unknown Hispanic woman shows breasts sweeping a front porch. IMDB readers have this at $6.7 of 10. It received many award nominations including three Oscars. Rotten Tomatoes has it at 80% positive. Gregory Peck was convincing as doctor Mengele, and Laurence Olivier was great as the Nazi hunter. I found it a very fast watch. C+

    The Matrix Retarloaded (2003):

    Given an almost unprecedented level of expectations, many people were disappointed with this film. I watched it with my wife and we both liked it, but with reservations. Here is a quick summary of our reactions:

    NEGATIVES:

    1. It suffers from "middle chapter" syndrome, and unlike most other middle chapter movies, it is not a self-contained film. It is merely there to provide the transition between #1 and #3.

    • It begins at a point which would be completely incomprehensible if you missed #1. In fact, if you have not seen the first, either do so or skip this one, because you won't have any idea what's going on. Hell, it isn't that simple even if you HAVE seen #1.
    • It ends on a cliffhanger, like one of those old-time serials, which many people found irritating.

    2. The fight scenes are

    • repetitious - same old stuff over and over again,
    • predictable - we know Neo always wins
    • illogical - Neo seems to be barely holding his own for a while, until he goes into Superman mode, so we wondered why he wasted his time. Why not just do the Superman thing right away?).

    Elya dissented partially on this one. She liked the fight scene with Morpheus on top of the moving truck in freeway traffic, because there was some tension - always the chance that Morpheus would lose.

    3. The dancing scene goes on too long.

    POSITIVES:

    1. Very intricate and challenging philosophical issues. Are the prophecies just another construct of the Matrix? Is it possible that "The One" himself is just part of the program - like some kind of a steam valve to control the small percentage of humans who will reject the Matrix? Is Neo really the sixth "One", or is it a lie made up by the machines to throw him off their scent? What is the deal with Agent Smith?

    2. Imaginative concepts matched to imaginative visuals.

    The Matrix Reloaded was a monster hit which grossed more than $700 million worldwide. I really liked it when they weren't fighting.

    MOVIE REVIEWS:

    Here are the latest movie reviews available at scoopy.com.

    • The yellow asterisks indicate that I wrote the review, and am deluded into thinking it includes humor.
    • If there is a white asterisk, it means that there isn't any significant humor, but I inexplicably determined there might be something else of interest.
    • A blue asterisk indicates the review is written by Tuna (or Lawdog or Junior or C2000 or Realist or ICMS or Mick Locke, or somebody else besides me)
    • If there is no asterisk, I wrote it, but am too ashamed to admit it.

    Amy Smart, uber-cutie. Topless. In skimpy little panties. Straddling her date. Must be "Road Trip".

    Love this scene. Reminds me of when I was in college and a girl who looked just like Amy Smart.... yes she did... got all friendly and stuff and stripped out of her clothes in my room and then spotted my digital camera...so it was 1983, but I was way ahead of the curve on these technology things... and asked if we could film ourselves doing the deed because she wanted me to have a copy. Yep. That's why I like this scene so much. And as the Great Kreskin says at the end of Plan 9 From Outer Space, can you prove it didn't happen? Well, I do suppose what happened in Plan 9 is a tad more believable.

Instead of just posing for snapshots in the TRL photo booth, they decided to make out, aparently not knowing that MTV had a video camera in the booth.

    BATTERED, DEEP-FRIED WADS OF CHEESY MEAT
    Needs Cheese Sauce! - Last month, the State Fair of Texas introduced the deep-fried Oreo. Not to be outdone, Arizona State Fair vendors are offering the fried cheeseburger - ground beef on a stick, wrapped in cheese, dipped in batter and deep fried - and the Kaktus Kutter - a green chili stuffed with pepper cheese, wrapped in roast beef, turkey or ham, batter-dipped and deep-fried.

  • If you're on a diet, order the turkey one.
  • It's good for you! The chili is filled with antioxidants!
  • Of course, the batter is made from ground-up Oreos.


    JESSICA NOT THAT DUMB, CLAIMS POOR DELUDED DAD
    I Love Lunacy - Jessica Simpson's dad Joe Simpson told TV Guide that his daughter isn't really as incredibly dumb as she appears on MTV's "The Newlyweds." He claims that since she knows the cameras are on, she "unintentionally exaggerates" the dumb blonde aspect of her personality. He compared her comedic talent to Lucille Ball's.

  • Asked to comment, Jessica wanted to know if Lucille Ball was some kind of sport.
  • No, she's more like Gracie Allen, only Gracie's stupidity was intentional.
  • I'll bet she used to change all the F's on her report cards into A's, and he probably believed it and signed them.


    BLAINE COMING OUT SOON
    Anything Interesting Happen While I Was In Here? - A starving David Blaine is just days away from being released from his plastic box in London, where he's been locked away with only water for over a month. He says what he most wants is to bathe and brush his teeth because his own stink is making him nauseous.

  • I think we're all a little nauseous, David...
  • I know how he feels: I lived in a men's dorm in college.
  • He's only been in London for a month, and his teeth are starting to look British.
  • On the bright side, the smell ruins his appetite!
  • He's one magician who'll never be eaten by a tiger, because he smells rancid and there's no meat on him.
