Creamguide(Films) is back! Back! BACK! for 2016 with a request from Robert Gillespie’s puppet lion – Disney’s live-action frippery from 1981: CONDORMAN. That can only mean swearing, poor impressions, endless menchies for Little and Large and musical interludes. Listen to Jack attempting colloquialisms as Chris blatantly contradicts Craig out of sheer badness: yes, it’s business as usual round the Creamguide(Films) Fireplace. Turn on the commentary as the movie ident kicks in and enjoy(!)

CREAMGUIDE(FILMS) REVERSE FAQ
1. James Hampton. And he wasn’t (that was Fred Sorensen.) But he was in Tales of the Golden Monkey, which is the same thing
2. Robert Arden
3. The Cumbersome Diamond is a Sid Caeser reference. Just sayin

This was one of the last films shown at my local cinema, The Classic, in North Shields, famous for its exit corridor that seemed to go on for miles. Surprise, surprise, it became a bingo and the nearest cinema is 4 miles away next to a dual carriageway, making it difficult for non drivers to get to.

I saw this at my local independent cinema during the school holidays.
I bought the DVD for a bargain price a few years ago.
