The Flintstones reached their peak in 1966 with the
feature film, "The Man Called Flintstone." As noted
by esteemed film critic, Roger Ebertstone, "you really
begin to *care* about the character of Fred as he
faces a sucession of dramatic perils caught in a web
of espionage and existensialism."
The definitive 2-disc set is set to be released in
March of 2005 with cast & crew commentary,
deleted scenes and interviews with surviving
Flintstone friends family members, Pebbles
(who recently appeared in her first nude love
scene in the postmodern remake of "I Was a
Teenage Caveman); Bam-Bam (newly discharged
from his third drug rehabilitation program since
the release of "The Flintstones Speak To Kids About
Drugs") and the still-beautiful and startingly
eloquent Betty Rubble.
This release is also expected to include a new
music video from the Devo-inspiring "Way-Outs"
which is a remixed version of a long lost analog
recording that was never used in a Flintstones
episode entitled "We Wanna Rock" which features
some of their most complex lyrics ever:
One and a-two
And a three an four
We wanna rock
and rock some more
Chronic Flinstonic
Prehistoric core
(Yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaaaah...)
We wanna rock
We wanna rock
We wanna rock
We wanna rock
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaaaah...
Rock rock rock
Rock rock around
Rock around
Rock around
Rock around rock
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeaaaaaaah...
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaaaah...
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaaaah...
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaaaah...)

That is one of the finest viewing experiences any person can have. The
musical numbers are as trippy and deranged as anything ever put on film
and the story keeps you not too bored in between. Yes, I DID see it in
the theatre on its initial release. I have seen it a couple of times
since then and conclude that a mere child cannot comprehend the
hallucinogenic nature of the film.
Whereas the Jetsons movie was just kind of eh. If they'd done it in
1966 instead of the '80s it might have been different. Might, hell. Woulda.

Anybody been to Flintsones Village, the roadside attraction about a
half hour south of the Grand Canyon South Rim? Is it still there? I
marvelled at it 15 years ago, covetting it for the Church, but it was
PRETTY run down then. I'd be surprised if it's still open. It must've
been GREAT when it was first built. Those curvy fake stone buildings...
That and the now-burnt Planet of the Apes town set were the two places
I had my heart set on taking over after the Apocalypse. Those and Rock
City in Tennessee. All three would be great warlord headquarters in a
post-nuclear-holocaust "Road Warriorish" world.

No, but if you Drive US 40 through the Maryland Pnahandle, you pass through the
town of Flintstone.

Well, that still beats passing a kidney stone the size of a golf ball.

Man walks into his doctors office holding a large rock-looking object.
Says to Doc: "Doc, look at this kidney stone I passed!"
Doc: "WOW. That must have hurt."
Man: "You bet it did, it fell on my foot!"

You should send that one to Sterno. His are so big, he uses a catapault
to throw them at a Baptist church down the road from his house. He ties
notes to them that say things like "Greetings from Satan, you stupid
fuckholes." What merry fun!

Fropstone fortress?
The Flintstone thing in AZ -- "Bedrock City" --
has got to be an archealogical dig by now.
There was one in South Dakota and two in
Canada as well.
I'm sure Universal Studios and their ultra
modern theme parks have superceeded the old
concrete and paper-mache' ice cream stands
by now.
The Canadian ones are definately closed.
I'm not sure on either of the 2 US ones despite
a Google search.
