[edit] History

Maybe some history of the intersection? Supposedly the Roberts Drive In was there in the 50's & early 60's. --evrik (talk) 03:19, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Quibble

I think it was featured on the local LA broadcast of Dr. Demento's show much more often than the syndicated version... AnonMoos (talk) 16:20, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Versions

I'd just like to be assured that it is absolutely certain that the version of the song used in The Forbiden Zone is the same as the original Figueroa version. Especially the lyrics. When I saw the Forbidden Zone I knew that this song existed, but I thought "these lyrics can't be right." Does anyone have an original recording, plus a knowledge of the movie, that can set me at ease? 76.173.47.146 (talk) 08:02, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
