HONDO forum viewing - Friday, February 18th 2011
As Marriedaniac was so incredibly kind to tell me In another thread, according to episode 24 of the 8th season called "Assault And Batteries", Hondo will be broadcasted again on this exact date. From the episode:
Al switches the TV on.
TV: ...and that's the conclusion of the classic western "Hondo". Join us February 18th,
2011, for the encore showing of...
Now wouldn't it just be awesome if a couple of us here on the forum, joined in with Al to watch Hondo this Friday, February 18th?! We could have a little "chat" and discuss the movie once we've seen it. We don't have to see it at the same time, since it could be hard to set a time due to the time difference around the world. But we could make sure we watch it sometime during that day then come on here and discuss it with each other, and so on. We could take pics of our TV with us watching it. Those who want to can wear their Polk High or NO MA'AM t-shirts.
If you don't already own the movie, go out right now and buy it! Or you could Netflix it, watch it online or download it. Your choice. I'm ordering my copy right now and will arrive in a day or two.
Also, as an extra, we could watch the two episodes where Hondo is mentioned, (2-22, 8-24.) If some members here would like to watch the movie but can't get have access to it, you could always just watch these two episodes instead.
So, who's up for this? Come on guys, it's one of Al's biggest dreams and most importantly it's... FOR HONDO!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a cool idea; I've never seen the movie. I'll try to track it down.

Re: HONDO forum viewing - Friday, February 18th 2011
Great to have two guys on board already! I agree with Marriedaniac, we should set a time when we can try to start the movie. It's a Friday, so we can start a bit later I guess since most are free the next day.
Al says that Hondo is on at 3:30 Chicago time, what would that be in GMT time? Would be cool to start watching the movie at the time he was supposed to watch it back in 1994

The only tricky thing is I might be out on Friday night, and I'm ahead of most people, time-wise. But, decide on a time and I'll do me best

You can always watch it before you go out then. Like I said, we all don't have to watch it at a certain time, as long as we all see it sometime during the day.marriedaniac wrote:The only tricky thing is I might be out on Friday night, and I'm ahead of most people, time-wise.

I just ordered my copy! I can't wait. 3:30 Chicago time works for me since I'm in the exact same time zone!
This aspect of Al often reminds me of my Dad. He's that same generation, they watched cowboy movies when they were kids and my dad still watches them over and over and John Wayne is huge. My dad will actually use the him as an authority on things. Like for example he would say "The Duke wouldn't put cream in his coffee." "The Duke wouldn't wouldn't order a steak rare." Or the ever present, "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do."
Apparently this movie was originally shown in 3-D and I actually remember once as a kid that there was a promotion, like go to 7-11 and get free glasses so you could watch it in 3-D on TV at home. Well, I thought it was gonna be like a the real movies where stuff is like right in your face but it was more like those comic books you might look at with glasses.
