Just in time!
 
That's right - just in time for Thanksgiving! "What?" you ask. Why the
biggest turkey in years - Bobsprit's newest film! Once again a vanity film
to show he is no director and marginal in using a camera. Poor James Doohan
went senile and did Booby's last movie, just before putting both feet in the
grave. Who will be Booby's next victim? Bob Hope is out, so it's a guessing
game who his latest washed up "movie star" will be. Rest assured the film
will never be a cult classic, the best it will do is rate five turkeys or
wind up on the rotten tomato list. Even Alan Smithee wouldn't put his name
on Bobsprit's celluloid pomposity. Bobsprit makes Ed Wood look like Stanley
Kubrik.
The only action you'll see at a Bobsprit film is the audience heading for
the door and with good reason. It would be prudent for Booby to start with
the "What's Up Tiger Lilly?" route and then progress into Terry Toons with
Farmer Gray. His sailing movie could then go on to be an episode of "Clutch
Cargo". By the way, the "famous actor" in Booby's next movie will be none
other than Charleton Heston --- ever see him in "Solar Crisis" -- it did
Alan Smithee proud.

Somehow Devine seems to come to mind................can't seem to come
up with his real name, perhaps you could jog my memory ;-o

sockpuppet roles...Glenn Milsop Harris would be proud of you!

No, I was well aware of the Glenn/Babs connection, and even noticed the irony of your
comment.

I just can't resist playing the straight man ...
