Hodge Podge Retrobits -

For today's installment of old super 8 films from yesteryear, we'll be watching a hodge podge of retrobits - as opposed to last time when we merely watched a visual stew. These clips were shot in the same general locations, with the same general bystanders, and were returned from the Kodak processing plant with the same general results. There's nothing worthwhile to see here; at least nothing that went any further up the success pole than being added to a large reel of blooper bits during that feverish movie making decade of mine ('73-'82).

It should be mentioned at this point that the email requests have been pouring in here recently asking if I would please supply more 'Big Al' footage on this video stage. I'm sure he'd be touched. So an effort has certainly been made to fulfill that order. Also, pointlessly bizarre music has been added for this latest upload to assist in the overall impression of an assembly line of haphazard scenes. I believe the latter goal was accomplished.

I liked the music but I felt like punching Lil Al in the face each time he came on screen.

Why would Lil' Al's face give rise to such feelings of anger? As you probably know, he has not aged a single day in 35 years and continues to live on the same street where he enjoys riding his bicycle every afternoon.

Nice moves! Did you make the catch?

I doubt it. But YOU were the cameraman for that tiny segment so you should remember if I did or didn't.

Otherwise, we'll have to ask Evert. He's the one that threw the ball.
