Roundie Zenith on YouTube.. Harry Poster?
 
'bout SIXTEEN years ago, I took my first long-term girlfriend on a first date to see "Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare" (In 3-D). Gawd I'm old...

Anyways, during the movie there was a scene that actually made me say (outloud) "Hey, I have one of those!!" Some kid is sleeping in an abandoned house and suddenly the old TV comes on. It's a Zenith roundie!

I've mentioned that scene on here before, but nobody seems to remember it. Well, today something jogged my memory to look on YouTube.

Here it is:

So now viewing it through older, wiser eyes, I can see that the knobs are wrong, and obviously it's a rectangular tube set inside. Since Mr. Harry Poster graces our forum now and then, I'm wondering if he did the conversion way back then when these sets weren't worth a dime?

As a side note, my current girlfriend thinks that Johnny Depp is "the bomb".

Gee, that looks horrible...I really don't believe it was "posterized" , from what I have known of Harry Poster reputation he really does a classy job on his sets.

It has to have a (modern and rectangular) 24 fps monitor inside to allow smooth filming of the displayed images.

Don't know much about the color conversion, but doesn anyone know what kind of TV it is in this (hilarious) Freddy clip http://youtube.com/watch?v=ve4DsUGctys
