Hump Day & Chill

Homicidal Tendencies 
Paul Dano 
as
The Riddler

Like many of you out there I am still reeling over The Batman. What an amazing piece of filmmaking! Unlike many of you I have not seen the film twice or even five times. Honestly Minions it's three hours long how you have found the time to do that is well beyond my comprehension. This being stated I definitely do want another go at it as I am 100% certain it will get even better on a second viewing.

While there are many things about it that rent space in my head daily, today we are going to Hump Day & Chill to Paul Dano as The Riddler. Never has there ever been a more terrifying depiction of this villain in a Batman movie. In fact his first appearance on screen in the film is straight outta a horror movie.

Did you know Matt Reeves modeled his Riddler after the infamous Zodiac Killer who terrorized CA in the 1960's? Well now you do, and it shows in how genuinely creepy Dano is in the role.

So a big Hump Day & Chill salute to Paul Dano, who haunts our collective nightmares. OK, time for me to get to that second go of The Batman...Ciao!

Pushing Daisies

Pusher
Jon Hamm

Saw this photo of Jon Hamm looking sexy as usual with a daisy and decided today that I'm gonna be a pusher, of daisies that is, especially ones in the same zip code as Jon Hamm.

"Yes" the only thing that makes this daisy special is it's getting Hammered. Seriously daisies are rather bland as flowers go.

The point of this? Daisies are a go to thing, only if they have some Hamm on the side.

Flower Power?

Current Mood

Ally
Dua Lipa

With the attack on the LGBTQ community in Florida, not to mention other places around the world my Current Mood is one of Pride.

"Yes" Minions be proud of who you are and don't let anyone make you feel otherwise.

Hey, it makes it easier when we have the likes of Dua Lipa as an ally.

Thus marching into a new week, adopt a different attitude and proudly express yourself.

Keep on keeping and remember: If you can't love yourself, how the Hell are you going to love anyone else???

Flag Wave!

Sunday Funday

The Krofft Superstar Hour

I have a tale to tell...I remember when The Bay City Rollers were big (I had their albums) and I remember when Sid and Marty Krofft shows ruled the airwaves. Thus imagine (in a John Lennon sort of way) my nostalgia and giddy kiddie-ness when I came across this image of the BCR and some Sid and Marty Krofft characters!

Can you name all the characters in the pic with the Rollers and the show they were on? I can...role call now!


A Sleestack via Land of the Lost, H.R. Puff and Stuff & Witchiepoo from H.R. Puff and Stuff (duh) and last, but not down for the count Sigmund straight outta Sigmund and the Sea Monsters.


Giving it a name.


Sunday Funday indeed!!!

Film Buff Friday: Metropolis

Now for some Fritz Lang... 

“Metropolis” is one of those prime treasures you don’t want to miss. Colossal sets, groundbreaking special effects, and a literal cast of thousands come together so extraordinarily, that this film contains some of cinema’s most iconic images and perhaps its most astounding use of production design. There is nothing else like “Metropolis” - Jay Jacobson Jay's Classic Movie Blog

Trivia Time: Christian Bale based his character Patrick Bateman in American Psycho on a David Letterman interview featuring Tom Cruise in 1999. Bale states "Tom Cruise had this vey intense friendliness with nothing behind the eyes"

What comes out of Florida besides Meth and Serial Killers that I can boycott? Asking for a friend
