LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE NATION... WE HAVE LOST THE POLL TOURNAMENT BUT THAT'S OKAY. anyway, now that the ship tournament is over, i'm sharing some art i drew of these two <3 i'll reblog the final post once the reveal happens, but yeah! thanks to everyone who voted for my goobers and put up with me being a little annoying about the whole thing, haha <3

anyway! here are the bastards themselves. left is iliris (he/him), right is twice (he/they/it). the vaguely goth cowboy and the cannibal cultist have fallen for each other! whatever will they do? (so much violence. that's what.)

#Multi's Artwork #lightning strikes twice #oc shipping #really funny that since i submitted them to the poll #i have fully registered that iliris is a toxic motherfucker #but that's ok

FNF prez Eddie Muller responds to film noir fan questions fielded by the Foundation's Director of Communications Anne Hockens. In this episode, we discuss Lightning Strikes Twice, Woman on the Run, Darwyn Cooke’s comic book adaptations of Richard Stark’s Parker novels, which classic film noirs should be remade, Eddie’s novel The Distance and more. We wind up the show with a discussion of the notorious psychological thriller Who Killed Teddy Bear. On the cat front, we get a rare visit from Tizzy the traveling cat.

The dialogue of LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE was nuanced, subtle, wicked, I wonder what male author has also sustained that continuous level of repartee? At the amusement park towards the finale of WOMAN ON THE RUN, the life-size Laughing Sally made me think it was San Francisco - am I mistaken?

Any news of a restoration/screening/Noir Alley showing/home release for CANON CITY (1948)? Morse

Eddie has expressed his affinity for comic books in the past, have either of you read the Darwyn Cooke adaptations of Richard Stark’s Parker books?

Nathanael from New Braunfels, Texas

Would Film Noir have existed if World War II had not?

John

Are there any classical Film Noir movies that might be worth a redo along the lines of NIGHTMARE ALLEY, with the chance of going back to original source material without the production code limitations?

Carlton, Atlanta, Georgia

In WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS Scalise keeps administrating what appears to be a nasal spray, but from my memory of Le Chiffre in James Bond isn’t it likelier that it is Benzedrine he’s inhaling?

Eric

One of my more favorite movies of recent vintage is EMILY THE CRIMINAL.  What do both of you think about the film?  

John - Brooklyn, N.Y.

I recently watched David Lynch's brilliant LOST HIGHWAY for the first time in several years and for the first time the very noir elements really stuck out for me. Is there another neo-noir with such strong sci-fi elements?

Joe on Long Island

My first question is for Eddie.  Do you consider Alfred Hitchcock’s SPELLBOUND and THE PARADINE CASE – both starring your favorite actor, Gregory Peck – to be good representatives of noir films?  

Anne, since you are a big fan of the Golden Era of Radio, were you a fan of the Alan Ladd radio series, BOX 13, and do you think it qualifies as a noir?  

Loren, Chicago

Re THE DISTANCE. Couldn't find any definition for "Swansy hollow punch". Could you elaborate? Did you make up the fighters' names or are they real names pulled from the past Was this your first book-length effort? If not, what was?

Jay and Connie, Ann Arbor, MI

Give Jay Ninjago little electrical scars on his face. Why? They are scars from when his birth mother last kissed him before having to hide him and run away from whoever was chasing them. :)

#why did they scar? she was really stressed and emotional at the time #lightning never strikes twice and she never kissed him ever again :) #i literally did the drawing so fast #just kidding it took 50 minutes #ninjago #lego ninjago #art #fanart #digital art #Ninjago jay #Ninjago Jay’s mother #cry I command it
