It occurred to me that the finest way to deal with people who think Dark Shadows is srs bzs or HEAVY DRAMA!!1one need to be shown a screencap of the Copyright Dan Curtis shot and have it explained why exactly that is one of the finest examples of irony to date.

The good news is that The Diary of a Murder probably has a publisher - probably, mind you - for Easter next year. Meanwhile, it's still online for you to enjoy at 
http://www.victorianlondon.org/diary/index.htm

Other possible projects include some magazine articles on Victorian London and, erm, I think that's it ... currently thinking about Victorians and faeries ... if anything comes of it, I'll let you know.

Ugh. It came out a bit trashy in my point of view. I tried to use silverleaf on it and I'm planning on sanding it down and just going with spray paint. The camra phone pics dont help.

You Are A:

Neutral Good Human Wizard (4th Level)


Ability Scores:
Strength- 11
Dexterity- 11
Constitution- 17
Intelligence- 17
Wisdom- 15
Charisma- 12

Alignment:
Neutral Good- A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment because it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.

Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Class:
Wizards- Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells, everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar- a small, magical, animal companion that serves her. With a high Intelligence, wizards are capable of casting very high levels of spells.

Ok, this one of those things that I find WTF-worthy. Everyone knows about the letter a little girl called Virgina wrote to a newspaper asking if there was a Santa and everyone loves how that letter "changed the world".

WHY THE HELL DON'T WE TALK ABOUT Samantha Smith AND HOW HER LETTER ENDED THE COLD WAR?

Here's the basics of the story. Remember the 170's and 80's? Remember how the Russians were the devil incarnate? Samantha Smith changed all that. By writing a letter. To the then Soviet leader Yuri Andropov.

Dear Mr. Andropov,

My name is Samantha Smith. I am ten years old. Congratulations on your new job. I have been worrying about Russia and the United States getting into a nuclear war. Are you going to vote to have a war or not? If you aren't please tell me how you are going to help to not have a war. This question you do not have to answer, but I would like to know why you want to conquer the world or at least our country. God made the world for us to live together in peace and not to fight.

Sincerely,
"Samantha Smith"

He wrote back.

Dear Samantha,

I received your letter, which is like many others that have reached me recently from your country and from other countries around the world.

It seems to me – I can tell by your letter – that you are a courageous and honest girl, resembling Becky, the friend of Tom Sawyer in the famous book of your compatriot Mark Twain. This book is well known and loved in our country by all boys and girls.

You write that you are anxious about whether there will be a nuclear war between our two countries. And you ask are we doing anything so that war will not break out.

Your question is the most important of those that every thinking man can pose. I will reply to you seriously and honestly.

Yes, Samantha, we in the Soviet Union are trying to do everything so that there will not be war on Earth. This is what every Soviet man wants. This is what the great founder of our state, Vladimir Lenin, taught us.

Soviet people well know what a terrible thing war is. Forty-two years ago, Nazi Germany, which strove for supremacy over the whole world, attacked our country, burned and destroyed many thousands of our towns and villages, killed millions of Soviet men, women and children.

In that war, which ended with our victory, we were in alliance with the United States: together we fought for the liberation of many people from the Nazi invaders. I hope that you know about this from your history lessons in school. And today we want very much to live in peace, to trade and cooperate with all our neighbors on this earth—with those far away and those near by. And certainly with such a great country as the United States of America.

In America and in our country there are nuclear weapons—terrible weapons that can kill millions of people in an instant. But we do not want them to be ever used. That's precisely why the Soviet Union solemnly declared throughout the entire world that never–never–will it use nuclear weapons first against any country. In general we propose to discontinue further production of them and to proceed to the abolition of all the stockpiles on Earth.

It seems to me that this is a sufficient answer to your second question: 'Why do you want to wage war against the whole world or at least the United States?' We want nothing of the kind. No one in our country– neither workers, peasants, writers nor doctors, neither grown-ups nor children, nor members of the government–want either a big or 'little' war.

We want peace—there is something that we are occupied with: growing wheat, building and inventing, writing books and flying into space. We want peace for ourselves and for all peoples of the planet. For our children and for you, Samantha.

I invite you, if your parents will let you, to come to our country, the best time being this summer. You will find out about our country, meet with your contemporaries, visit an international children's camp – 'Artek' – on the sea. And see for yourself: in the Soviet Union, everyone is for peace and friendship among peoples.

Thank you for your letter. I wish you all the best in your young life.

"Y. Andropov"

She took him up on the offer and went to Russia. When she got back she looked right at a TV camera and said "Their just like us!" and bam... the Cold War began to crack. Rocky became friends with the guy with the Flat Top, we started drinking vodka together... All because a little girl wrote a letter to an actual person.

So here's part one of the Otto Octavius Mega Icon Dump.

Whats in this opening refrain? Cartoon and Video Game Icons. 85 of them, these are the RAW, untouched / non-corrected versions. A bit later this morning, I'll post the corrected / edited versions.

| | | |
The rest are behind the Cut

Ok guys, I've been on a bit of an Icon making bender the last week or so, that I really need to justify and explain. We all know my PSP skills stink and my learning curve with the software is going to take freaking forever, but I am now capable of  some minor "clean up" and restoration work. WEEE! Over the next few days I'll be dumping the icons to my Journal (and maybe here) and I do have to warn you... I've fallen off the wagon so so say and I'm back on the drug known as COMIC BOOK.

Particularly my focus has been Otto Octavius of Spiderman the comics. Just to prove to the folks at The Master Planner's Lair that while I am seriously biased AGAINST the cartoons and video games and yes, even the movies, I'll not begrudge the fans of those bastard sons of the Spiderman comics their enjoyment.

So the first couple dumps will be for the cartoons, video games and movie. I have over a thousand icons made so far and plan on categorizing them with each dump over the next few weeks to reduce OMG and aid in indexing.

I have done some clean up, when possible, on the screen shots that were provided. Sharpening focus and correcting color fading mostly. I'm debating wither or not I should separate the "corrected" icons from the untouched. Lemme know if I should separate the untouched and the retouched icons.

((Note: I have also done some Lost Boys Reign of Frogs comic book icons, back when the failtastic By-Post Role-Play I was involved with was going on. Should you wish it, I can post them. Even though they are all untouched and I did NO clean up work on them))

MONSTER KID OF THE YEAR

ELIOT BRODSKY




In an industry town where monsters are just part of a day's work, Eliot Brodsky's Monsterpalooza convention in Burbank reminded everyone in the creative arts just how magical, talented and cool it is to be a Monster Kid, especially in Hollywood.  Everyone was a fan that weekend, giving the horror genre an infusion of West Coast energy that's still being felt a year later.. And the fact that it was called "Monsterpalooza'' somehow made it all the more special. For capturing the spirit of imagination that brought everyone to Hollywood in the first place, Eliot Brodsky's tireless work on his gathering of gods and monsters earns him the award as Monster Kid of 2009.



THE MONSTER KID HALL OF FAME

The six latest inductees are:




The late Bill Lemon and Ray Meyers (above with his Godzilla), the sculptors of the original Aurora monster models who made us all, yes, the makers of monsters.




Dennis Druktenis, editor and publisher of Scary Monsters Magazine (The only REAL Monster magazine), who has chronicled, in a very real way, the complete street-level history of the horror craze. Like few others, dennis gets what it is all about.




Robert 'Bob' Carter, better known as Sammy Terry, kept Indianapolis and the Midwest awash in monsters and laughter.  He still prowls today, a true monster original.




The ultimate 1950s science fiction fan, Bill Warren worked with Forrest J Ackerman and produced one of the genre's essential works, the mammoth Keep Watching the Skies, a film by film chronicle of every sci-fi move of the 1950s.  An irascible online presence, Warren is one of the original Monster Kids.


His Cinefantastique kicked monster magazines into a new level of sophistication and depth unmatched even today. Along the way he gave a new generation of writers a testing ground. Tortured and dead too young at 51, we remember always Frederick S. Clarke.


And there you have it! Check out the rondoaward.com website for the latest, and thank you for all the support.
All should be aware that virtually all fan and creativity nominees received substantial support, even if not
listed above. Thanx for everyone's great work this year. Long live Rondo!

Vila Wolf's Tomb of the Werewolf Review

Ok, to be fair I need to say that I've only seen this movie five times. The first four viewings came in 2004, the very day I was able to get my eager little hands on it in a Blockbuster Rental. It's now 2010. A couple weeks ago while I was cleaning out my "stacks" of unsorted papers I came across my original review of it. Part of me went "Oh yeah, THAT movie" while the side of me loyal to Naschy could not believe I gave it such a harsh review. It was in my early days of Naschymania, before I was fluent in the subtext Naschy wrote and acted in. I bought a copy on Amazon, determined to give it a fair shake.... Those of you who have me on facebook already know where this is going. Oh Molina, ... I cry WITH you. I know it was always your dream to work in Hollywood and I beg your forgiveness for what they did to you and to your signature character.

I also need to tell you all that I can find very few screen-shots of the cast. As in, Other than Bathory and Daninsky, there are none. The Most Holy Naschy Site has production stills, but they all focus on Naschy and have red borders.


Oh Dear God... is that a monkey?


Kub is the gnome who lives in my pocket. My occasional Alter-Ego if it were. He ran out of room but would like to say the only reason he rated the movie so high was because he's afraid I'd cut him off from booze, damn alcoholic gnome.

Opening Scene: Holy shit... I don't know what the casting director was on, but he failed utterly. So far we've met Elisabeth Bathory, nameless victim and The Devil. Bathory goes back an forth for a minute trying to decide if she should keep this girl for herself or sacrifice her to her Master. Devil shows up. Clearly annoyed with Bathory and alters his "gift of eternal youth and beauty" to say she must now bathe in human blood. The only thing of any note is the fact that they ditched the Devil appearing and vanishing in flashes of fire and brimstone. They went with the much more Lore-Correct flashes of white light. (Lucifer being the Morning Star after all) I feel like I am watching someone's home movie attempt to make a movie.( Friends Saver )
