M*A*S*H
Directed by Robert Altman
One of the world's most acclaimed comedies, M*A*S*H focuses on three Korean War Army surgeons brilliantly brought to life by Donald Sutherland, Tom Skerritt and Elliott Gould. Though highly skilled and deeply dedicated, they adopt a hilarious, lunatic lifestyle as an antidote to the tragedies of their Mobile Army Surgical Hospital, and in the process infuriate Army bureaucrats. Robert Duvall, Gary Burghoff and Sally… From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →M*A*S*H The movie was better than the book, and the TV show was better than the movie.
positive · AI labelView post →RIP Tom Skerritt, a rad guy who showed up in films as diverse as M*A*S*H, THIEVES LIKE US, ALIEN, TOP GUN, STEEL MAGNOLIAS, and CONTACT and had a robust TV career that peaked with PICKET FENCES and an appearance on TIM AND ERIC AWESOME SHOW, GREAT JOB. He also made a movie called SEXYCOP.
neutral · AI labelView post →Also true of the Vietnam War--virtually all of the meaningful movie and TV work about the war happened after it ended. The closest thing to a zeitgeisty Vietnam War movie during the war was M*A*S*H--which was (sort of) about Korea. Culture doesn't always know how to look things right in the eye.

neutral · AI labelView post →I don't know if he qualifies as a singer, but Robert Altman's son Mike (14 at the time) made more money off the royalties for writing the lyrics to Suicide is Painless (the theme to M*A*S*H) than his father made for directing the film. Millions versus $70k.

Best known as 'Hot Lips' Houlihan in M*A*S*H, she starred in the film of Whoops Apocalypse as President Adams (no relation) in 1986. Writers David Renwick & Andrew Marshall talked about her, and the film, for GoonPod: open.spotify.com/episode/6yFa...

Capcom games are named after alcoholic cocktails (Jack Rose, Violet Fizz, etc.) Hawkeye isn't an alcoholic in the comics, but another notable fictional TV/movie character is: Hawkeye from M*A*S*H*
neutral · AI labelView post →The M*A*S*H movie is not good. The central plot involves a character who got drunk and couldn't keep his dick hard, so he suspects that he might be gay. His friends conspire to find a woman to have non-consensual sex with him, to prove to him that he isn't gay.

positive · AI labelView post →The actor who played Henry Blake in the TV series M*A*S*H (McLean Stevenson) and the actor who played Henry Blake in the movie M*A*S*H (Roger Bowen) died one day apart from each other in 1996. They both died of heart attacks.
neutral · AI labelView post →I think so. Plays got to Vietnam in a meaningful way (MacBird but also David Rabe) before film/TV did (I'm not counting Green Berets). M*A*S*H (1970) semi-counts--Korea via a Vietnam-era esthetic sensibility. But the big H'wood Vietnam movie boom--Deer Hunter, Coming Home, Apocalypse Now--was 78/79.
neutral · AI labelView post →The best Star Wars projects are a genre work that just happens to be in a science fiction setting. A new hope is a samurai war movie with spaceships and wizards, clone wars is the non-medical other side of M*A*S*H but in space. The force awakens is just being a Star Wars movie. 
neutral · AI labelView post →To be fair, there was a show called TRAPPER JOHN MD, that was based on the Elliott Gould character from the M*A*S*H movie, but nothing to do with the Wayne Rogers character on the show (a character I I only knew from reruns), it was a confusing time not to have internet invented yet

neutral · AI labelView post →My idea for a CENTIPEDE movie that I’ve had for decades is an M*A*S*H-style comedy about soldiers who pilot hovercraft tanks to shoot at giant centipedes for reasons they don’t understand, all the while trying not to go insane on a hallucinogenic day glo mushroom planet.

Roles included M*A*S*H, Alien, Top Gun, Space Camp, A River Runs Through It & Picket Fences. He was always assured, low-key & dependable.

(the 1992 equivalent in film would've been Flash Gordon and Modern Times, meanwhile. we had movies down good.)

neutral · AI labelView post →Robert Altman's 14-year-old son, Mike Altman, wrote the lyrics for the M*A*S*H movie's theme, 'Suicide is Painless'. While Robert Altman was paid $75,000.00 for directing the film, his son pocketed roughly $2,000,000.00 in residuals from use of the song in both the film and subsequent TV show.

neutral · AI labelView post →Stallone's excellent memoir about his early struggles and the making of Rocky contains a HUGE revelation. That's not him as an extra in Altman's M*A*S*H. He was a cinema usher in 1970 and cites M*A*S*H as a film he studied repeatedly, but doesn't mention being in it. Another myth shattered.
