Subj: [kl] Movie Trailer Music, Orca songs & Taxi Drivers
Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 19:34:56 -0400

After reading several articles I couldn't help but
wonder what Ms. Emily Litella would say, if she
jumped into these conversations:

"What is all this fuss I hear about Movie Trailers
having Music?!? They can have music if they want!
There are some very nice Elevators, and they get to
have their own Music! Why can't Trailers for Actors
on Movie Lots, have their own Music? I don't see
what all the fuss is about!?!?"

"Be careful not to try to harpoon an Orca while
it's singing under water. It's very hard to see an Orca
well, when it's under water. For all you know it could
just be another 400-pound Soprano singing an opera!
They do sound similar, when they are deep under
water!"

"I never saw a Taxi Driver with Bernard Herrman!
Can YOU see into those dark taxi cabs, to see who
they are driving around? If I can't see into a dark taxi
cab, how would I know if it was Bernard Herrman,
who was saying "You talkin' to ME?!?!"? Maybe
the Taxi Driver has the Orca in his cab?!?"

Just a few stray thoughts to think about.
