Giants Come in Different Sizes: 45th Anniversary Edition

Giants Come in Different Sizes: 45th Anniversary Edition Review

As far as I've been able to determine, giants come in roughly three sizes: 'Very' big, 'Way, WAY' big, and 'Good grief, would you look at THAT!' big. It is possible there there may be even larger ones, but I've never personally seen any.

A few folks, mostly adults, contend that there are no such things as giants. I will not waste your time nor mine disputing such radical theories. They probably don't believe in the Easter Bunny or Tooth Fairy either. Blasphemy.

In addition (and you may not believe this) there are folks who dispute the fact that hamburgers grow on bushes. Good grief...doesn't anyone major in agriculture anymore? Well, there are pictures of several hamburgers bushes in this very book. Scientific proof I'd say.

The Age of Giant Corporations: A Microeconomic History of American Business, 1914-1992, A Third Edition (Contributions in Economics and Economic History)

The Age of Giant Corporations: A Microeconomic History of American Business, 1914-1992, A Third Edition (Contributions in Economics and Economic History) Review

A popular text and valuable resource since the first edition was published in 1972, Robert Sobel's The Age of Giant Corporations is now available in a third edition, bringing the history up to the present. This book describes the industries and corporations that have played major roles in the nation's economic growth since the outbreak of World War I. It concentrates on management, technology, marketing and finance, and is concerned with the interrelations and intertwining of political and industrial power. The current edition includes a new chapter covering the impact of junk bonds and corporate governance in the 1980s and early 1990s, an age of restructuring and re-creation in giant corporations. Taking a chronological approach, the volume opens with a chapter on American business during World War I. The author then covers the 1920s in two chapters, one on the glamour industries of the era and one discussing power, consolidation, and mass distribution. Turning to the Depression era in Chapters 4, 5, and 6, he then considers the failure of finance capitalism, business during the New Deal, and growth elements during the Depression. Chapter 7 considers government-business relations in World War II, and Chapter 8 discussed monopsony and conglomerates in postwar America. Turning to the 1960s and 1970s, the next two chapters are devoted to big business and then to decline, revival, and renewal. The final chapter covers the era of the junk bond and its aftermath. The Age of Giant Corporations will continue to be a valuable book for students and scholars of U.S. economic history.

Beginning of the End (Special Edition)

Beginning of the End (Special Edition) Review

I don't remember seeing this movie when I was 12 or 13 but then there were a lot in those days. This movie runs 76 minutes with a silly Rhino commercial at the beginning for almost two minutes. Rhino put out this movie in 1998 on VHS and I have a pristine copy. I wanted a DVD but then Amazon ran out of them and now only Marketplace sellers are offering them for .00 and up.

This has a good story, doesn't run too long, isn't idiotic and has "logical" premise. There were lots of movies about monster bugs, etc. (Ants in Them, Spiders in They), who came from nuclear bomb tests in those days but this one is different.

Yes, there are artifacts in the film but it doesn't jump and only the night scenes are hard to watch. I watched this on a 50" plasma so all of the defects were exagerated but I really didn't notice - I was paying attention to the story. Most people watching home videos in VHS in 1998 must have had 17" to 25" inch televisions so they might not have noticed the defects then.

I saw some complaints about special effects but geez! it is 1958! I thought they did a good job!

I recommend you watch this movie and if you can get the DVD - IF it is re-mastered, then you can enjoy it even more. It won't take much of your time. A small town demolished to the ground. Dozens of innocent people mysteriously missing. A monstrous secret covered up by the military. Lovely reporter Audrey Aimes (Peggy Castle) smells a scoop, and with the aid of Dr. Ed Wainwright (Peter Graves), the truth behind a titanic terror growing in the Illinois heartland is soon uncovered! Department of Agriculture experiments with radiation have created giant, man-eating grasshoppers, and now the oversized horrors are hopping their way to Chicago! Can this menace be stopped before the Windy City becomes another casualty? Or is this the Beginning of the End for mankind? This atomic drive-in favorite from mutant monster expert Bert I. Gordon (Village of the Giants, Earth vs. the Spider) delivers non-stop entertainment packed with creepy-crawly critters. Newly transferred from the original negative, this beautifully restored presentation brings all the big bug action bursting off your television screen like you've never seen it before!

The Lost World (Special Edition) - 1960 & 1925 versions

The Lost World (Special Edition) - 1960 & 1925 versions Review

Irwen Allen's knock-off remake of The Lost World is glossy but very condescending. Hope sprang eternal in me when I found out that Willis O'Brien was the technical advisor. Hope fell on its butt when I discovered Allen had decided not to utilize O'Brien's stop motion talents. Instead, he wasted the talents of Claude Rains, Michael Rennie, Fernando Lamas, Jill St. John, and David Hedison on a cut-rate adventure that features lizards and alligators with fins and horns glued on. There's a stink of disrespect for the dinosaur genre permeating Allen's Lost World. So why the generous four-out-of-five-star rating? Shockingly enough, the film still looks reasonably well and plays close to Doyle's story (although the entire dinosaur-on-the-loose-in-London sequence was jettisoned).

More importantly, this DVD also features the original 1925 classic, with a miniature army of innovative dinosaur models created by O'Brien and sculptor Marcel Delgado, based on the classic Charles R. Knight paintings. The 18-inch skeletons were constructed to include ball-and-socket joints and articulated backbones that allowed for movable digits and appendages. Skins were made of latex and rubber sheeting. Some of the dinosaurs even contained air bladders that, when activated off camera, gave the creatures the appearance of breathing. The attention given to bringing these monsters to life is, by silent era standards, amazing. The cast is no less impressive, headed by such stars of the era as Wallace Beery, Lewis Stone, Bessie Love, Lloyd Hughes, and Bull Montana. With spectacular sets, acting, and dinosaur sequences, the lion's share of this DVD's appeal goes to the silent 1925 version. An eccentric scientist (Claude Rains) returns from the Amazon with news of a distant plateau where creatures from the dawn of time still prowl the jungle. To prove his story, he gathers a team of explorers, including a journalist (David Hedison), a playboy-adventurer )Michael Rennie), a beautiful socialite (Jill St. John), and a pilot (Fernando Lamas) with a secret plan of revenge. But an unexpected attack on their camp leaves the group stranded in a world of dinosaurs and other exotic creatures, where humans are no longer the lords of the earth¿they are helpless prey.
