    Zorro on TCM

    1920 original airing and it's quite good. Douglas Fairbanks. Entertaining and funny. I think the Mego favors this one. If anyone cares to check it out. On now. You have to know how to read😴

    Great film and highly entertaining. It was also an influence on The Batman as he was originally called.

      It was. From Zorro's first appearance, and looking just like the Mego likeness, except for the head bandana, which was hidden by his hat. The confidence he commanded as he romped around the room smoldering in his own cigar smoke. And the quivering corrupt soldiers who, moments before boasted on how they were going to cut him down. And the alter ego, Don Diego, who just cAnnot seem to compose himself correctly, not seeming like an act, in front of the girl who becomes his leading lady. I recorded it. Will watch again. It was good. Silent but very visual swashbuckler. Classic super hero flick!

        And a three star recommendation. This holds water. Better than allot of modern flicks with only one or two.

            I liked the Tyrone Power version, as well as Alain Delon and Frank Langella.

              Speaking of Zorro, does anyone have any info on when the Disney version (Guy Williams) season (3)
              will be released? I have the first two complete seasons for a while and no season 3 in sight yet.

              When it's shown on tv, they only go as far as the final episode of season (2), then start back to episode 1
              season (1) thought this was strange.
