Sherman's Footlight Parade
Hello, all, and welcome back to the Comfy Chair Cinema.
You know, it's wonderful to see a great actor. Or a great singer. Or a great dancer. It's very seldom to see such a force of talent that is all three.
But then again, there are few Shermans in the world.
In this week's feature, "Sherman's Footlight Parade," our boy Sherman shows off his dancing skills. And I think you'll be amazed.
Sit back and enjoy "Sherman's Footlight Parade."

The Yodel of Love, Pt 2, or It's A Wonderful Pickle
Hello, friends, and welcome back to the Comfy Chair Cinema.
Yes, our first sequel. It was bound to happen. When last you left the Yodeling Pickle, it was calling out and had found true love in the Yodeling Lederhosen. There was a wedding.
"But what happened afterwards?" I know you're all wondering.
Well, wonder no more! Enjoy a cinematic look at the happy life of our your favorite couple.
(By the way, may this be the last time I ever work with the Yodeling Lederhosen. A worse actor I've never encountered. Unruly, that's what he is! This must be what it's like working with Russell Crowe.)

Comfy Chair Retrospective: Two Feet of Music
Yes, we've only been existence (at the new building) for a month, and we're already having a retrospective. So sue us.
However, I did say at the very beginning that one of my fondest wishes for the Cinema was to unearth some of the movies Mr M and I made in the old days. So far I've found two. This is the one I chose.
"Two Feet of Music" was made for a reason. Since I've known Mr M, he's always been amused at the fact that whether we're listening to music or watching TV and movies with music in the background, I, without even thinking, begin to direct that music with my feet. He said we needed to document that. And so we did, and it became "Two Feet of Music."
And so, for the refurbished Comfy Chair Cinema, I give you the remastered* "Two Feet of Music." Enjoy.
(* In this case, "remastered" means I added some titles and a small explanation. It does not mean the footage is any better. Because, if you've seen any of these films, you know that I know nothing about the making or remaking of film.)

Wind-Ups on Parade
Welcome back to the Comfy Chair Cinema. This week, for you - a veritable epic.
Yes, "Wind-Ups on Parade" comes in at a whopping 3 minutes 14 seconds. It's the "Berlin Alexanderplatz" of the Comfy Chair Cinema.
I'm happy this movie is over. Now all my wind-ups can go back to my desk at work. Sadly, however, I learned a cruel fact in the making of this movie. I've been way too kind in letting kids play with my work toys. My very favorite wind-up, the "Skittish Mechanical Thingie," has been wound too tight too many times by too many kids. He died in the making of this film.
So as you enjoy "Wind-Ups on Parade," say a prayer in sending "Skittish Mechanical Thingie" off to Toy Heaven.
