Coolness Is Timeless: Dean Martin Fights Back

Wednesday, October 22, 2008

I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!

Mondo said...: Do you reckon they'll ever re-do the Matt Helm films - done properly and not some the usual action-by-numbers-hollywood-production line movie - it could be a winner.

And how about Modesty Blaise, well overdue for a re-make; October 22, 2008 at 8:23 AM
Keith said...: I don't know. I had heard one time that they were considering George Clooney to play Matt Helm. Not sure if they would go back to the tone of the books or be like the movies. It seems like all action movies of today want to be done like the Bourne franchise. Even Bond is guilty of that these days. Oh yeah. I would love to see a remake of Modesty Blaise. I'm sure they would ruin that too.; October 22, 2008 at 10:06 AM

Glenn Bishop "Bish The Magish" said...: My favorite Matt Helm weapon was the exploding buttons on his sport coat.

They were a blast.

Thanks for posting such a cool picture Keith.

Keith said...: Hey Glenn. Thanks for the comments. Yeah, I loved that particular weapons of his. Matt Helm had some other interesting weapons like the guy that would shot backwards or the one that had a delayed firing.; October 23, 2008 at 9:38 AM
