Talk:Popeye Doyle

Photo

One of two photos that I've been able to locate from the movie. That's Ed O'Neill as Doyle on the left. Notice he's wearing the ubiquitous hat. --Jcordell 10:15, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

I found a few clips on Youtube. We might be able to get something off of that. --Funkychinaman 10:31, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

That would be great. I've never had much luck with getting screencaps off of Youtube. I probably should ask my teenage kids for help. Yes i have teenagers. That dates me doesn't it.--Jcordell 10:37, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

I got a few for you from the few snippets that they have. And yes, yes it does. ;) --Funkychinaman 10:39, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

I got five, all from the first 16 minutes. You'll see them in the upload log. --Funkychinaman 10:50, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

Excellent. thanks. I always prefer screencaps. Even if there are just a few.--Jcordell 11:13, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

According to Fox Movie Channel, it'll be on a few more times in November. I can experiment with hooking up my capture device to my DVR. --Funkychinaman 11:40, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

That would be even better. I still use a VCR to record things from television. --Jcordell 17:21, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

NOOOOW you're dating yourself... ;) --Funkychinaman 17:53, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

LOL. I can do even better. While I do have a cell phone and most of the land line phones in our house are cordless (my parents bought one of the early ones in 1983) we purposefully installed two rotary phones. Why? Because when you lose the power they keep working and cell phone networks have been known to crash. The phones are great though. Both were made in 1971 and they're big old heavy black things. I love em. --Jcordell 18:01, 31 October 2011 (CDT)

Just make sure you're not | renting those bad boys. I like old stuff too, especially those old phones that you could bludgeon people with. Would I pay twenty bucks a month for that privilege, no. But my taste in old stuff is reflected in my LP and gun collections. Saturday Night Fever and Enfield rifles. Where can you even buy blank video cassettes? --Funkychinaman 21:59, 31 October 2011 (CDT)
