This month (exact date unknown, I believe) marks the 200th anniversary of the near-fatal grizzly mauling of mountain man Hugh Glass during the Rocky Mountain Fur Company's 1822-23 expedition. I made a paper figure set of the company years back that you can download and print:
Glass was stripped of his equipment & left for dead by the two companions who were supposed to wait with him until he died; he survived despite terrible wounds and trekked 200 miles to the nearest outpost. After recuperating, he set off to hunt down the two men who doomed him.
He found, and forgave, the teen Bridges (possibly a misnamed 18/19-year-old Jim Bridger), and then found Fitzgerald, who had joined the army. Told by Fitzgerald's officer that if he killed Fitz he would be killed himself, Glass let Fitz off with a warning: Leave the army, and you're dead.
Glass's survival yarn has been made into a movie twice: as the relatively recent Leo movie THE REVENANT, and back in the 70s as MAN IN THE WILDERNESS, with Richard Harris in the role.

Ideas for future episodes of “Epic Rap Battles of History”:
1) The Snow White Battle Royale (Brothers Grimm Snow White vs. Disney Snow White vs. OUAT Snow White/Mary Margaret Blanchard vs. Weiss Schnee from RWBY vs. Fables/Telltale Snow White)
2) Wednesday Addams vs. Sabrina Spellman (theme: the “weird” girls who were beloved sitcom characters that later received a dark reboot)
3) Yuri Gagarin vs. Neil Armstrong (theme: the ‘nauts who left their mark on history)
4) Marlon Brando vs. Humphrey Bogart (theme: two actors who are considered to be the greatest)
5) Benedict Arnold vs. Judas Iscariot (theme: two of the most infamous traitors in world history)
6) Hugh Glass vs. Bear Grylls (theme: legendary frontiersman against a TV show survivalist. Both also have a connection to bears)
7) Joseph McCarthy vs. Abigail Williams (theme: individuals whose legacies are tied to two of the most infamous witch hunts in American history)

I find it absolutely hilarious that after playing the popularised sexy man “James Bond” for what feels like a millennium, Daniel Craig has only now reached tumblr sexy man status by playing a funky southern gay detective with a hubby that bakes sour bread. If this is not the most on brand tumblr thing I don’t know what is

Everyone complaining about amogus in glass onion clearly seems to forget that during covid they along with the world were obsessed with it. This movie is set during the pandemic and shows us exactly how the rich and powerful showed no regard for it (birdie Jay throwing a massive party, miles inviting his friends over to his private island) while benoit had a mental breakdown from being locked inside for so long and his husband hugh grant is stress baking.

REVIEW: The Revenant - A Novel of Revenge (2002)
A Book by Michael Punke I’d imagine that a lot of my readers have watched the film that swept the 2016 Academy Awards – The Revenant. I will now shock everyone to point out that I have NOT watched the movie for some reason or another, but that may change soon. To prepare, I decided to check out the book that the film was based on, and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. The…
