The Nerdy 5: Tim the Nerd's Favorite Movies

The first movie I recall seeing in theaters was ET: The Extra-Terrestrial with my Grandma in 1982. I can imagine this trip was done so that my parents could take my sister to the doctor or something along those lines. To say this movie had a huge impact on me is an understatement. Even though I wasn’t even in kindergarten yet, this movie showed me a world of make believe on the big screen come…

Stumbled upon this 1977 experimental film version of the Rime of the Ancient Mariner that incorporates Gustav Doré's illustrations of the poem and is narrated by Orson Welles. It's described as “a long opium dream" (which is what Coleridge would have wanted) and boy is it fantastic.

for my beloved followers interested in mormon polygamy name discourse, i have compiled and presented a list of the children of four different 19th century mormon polygamist men, ranging from 30 to 66 children. I included middle names when I could find them and the children are listed in chronological order of their birth.

Brigham Young:

Elizabeth, Vilate, Joseph Angell, Brigham Jr., Mary Ann, Emma Alice, Luna Caroline, John Willard, Brigham Heber, Edward Partridge, Oscar Brigham, Hyrum, Joseph, Moroni, Mary Eliza, Ella Elizabeth, Alva, Alma, Fanny Decker, Emily Augusta, Marinda Hyde, Clarissa Maria, Jeanette Richards, Zina Presendia, Evelyn Louisa, Hyrum Smith, Caroline Partridge, Ernest Irving, Nabby Howe, Willard, Eudora Lovina, Mahonri Moriancumer, Emmeline Amanda, Shamira, Alfales, Brigham Morris, Phoebe Louisa, Jedediah Grant, Arta DeChrista, Joseph Don Carlos, Louisa Wells, Susa Amelia, Lorenzo Dow, Miriam, Albert Jeddie, Feramorz Little, Alonzo, Josephine, Clarissa Hamilton, Charlotte Tallula, Ruth, Phineas Howe, Lura, Daniel Wells, Rhoda Mabel, Adella, and Fanny van Cott

Heber Kimball: 

Judith Marvin, William Henry, Helen Mar, Roswell Heber, Heber Parley, David Patten, Adelbert, Charles Spaulding, Henry, Brigham Willard, Sarah Helen, David, Margaret Jane, Abraham Alonzo, Isaac, Solomon Farnham, Samuel Chase, David Orson, Prescinda Celestia, Murray Gould, David Heber, Joseph Smith, Augusta, Cornelia Christine, John Heber, William Gheen, Susannah, Samuel Heber, Joseph Smith, Harriet, Newel Whitney, Willard Heber, Jacob Reese, Jonathan Golden, Horace Heber, Rosalia, Albert Heber, Lydia Holmes, Jedediah Heber, Hyrum Heber, Enoch Heber, Peter, Daniel Heber, Ann Spaulding, Sarah Maria, Jeremiah Heber, Mary Melvina, Andrew, Alice Ann, Eliza, James Heber, Joshua Heber, Washington, Mary Margaret, Moroni Heber, Sarah Gheen, Joshua Heber, Eugene, Wilford Alfonzo, Franklin Heber, Lorenzo Heber, Abbie Sarah

Parley Pratt:

Parley Parker Jr., Nathan, Olivia Thankful, Susan, Moroni Llewellyn, Alma, Helaman, Nephi, Julia Houston, Belinda Marden, Cornelia, Agatha, Abinadi, Lucy, Ether, Mormon, Mosiah, Malona, Lehi Lee, Henriette, Marian, Omner, Teancum, Mary Wood, Moroni Walker, Phoebe Soper, Isabella Eleanor, Sarah Elizabeth, Evelyn, Mathoni

also who had the best name taste and who had the worst

#i dont know whether parley pratt nerfing literally every single one of his sons except nathan with a terrible name or heber kimball naming #almost all of his sons after himself is worse. lol #HK didn't have as many just batshit insane names but he was also terminally uncreative and had the most repeat names between siblings #including TWO sets of living siblings with the same exact full name which is demonic #i would argue that Joseph F. Smith probably had the best taste in names. he was a generation younger so i guess they settled down a bit

Since I've been re-listening to the classic fairy tale radio show Let's Pretend, I've been thinking of Arthur Anderson. He was a mainstay character actor on Let's Pretend throughout most of its long run, from age 14 until age 32. But he was probably the cast member with the most notable career beyond radio.

Most famously, he was the original voice of the Lucky Charms cereal mascot Lucky the Leprechaun. He voiced Lucky in commercials from the 1960s through the early '90s, and to the end of his life, people would ask him to sing his musical catchphrase, "They're magically delicious!" I'm sure he was still the voice actor in the very first Lucky Charms commercials I vaguely remember seeing as a toddler. But that wasn't sum total of his non-radio career.

As a teenager, he played the slave boy Lucius in Orson Welles' famous 1937 production of Julius Caesar. He was the real-life equivalent of Zac Efron's character Richard Samuels in Me and Orson Welles, although that movie is heavily fictionalized. He was already a regular on Let's Pretend when that production took place – I don't suppose Me and Orson Welles shows Zac Efron performing in a fairy tale radio show, but if not, it should have.

Later, he played small roles in films like Midnight Cowboy, Green Card, and I'm Not Rappaport, and on various TV shows too.

In his old age, he was the second voice actor for Eustace Bagge in Courage the Cowardly Dog.

He also wrote two non-fiction books: Let's Pretend and the Golden Age of Radio, and his autobiography, An Actor's Odyssey: Orson Welles to Lucky the Leprechaun.

He lived a good long life, eventually dying in 2016 at age 93.

While I don't have a complete list of his Let's Pretend roles, these are all his roles in the episodes I've heard:

*The title character, Bud, in The Youth Who Learned to Shiver and Shake (the only episode I know of where he played the lead)

*The Giant in Jack and the Beanstalk

*The Witch Doctor in The Little Mermaid (they gender-bent the Sea Witch to add another male role to the story)

*Falada the horse in The Goose Girl

*Alan-a-Dale in Robin Hood

*The Bumblebee King in Thumbelina

*The Crow in The Snow Queen

*The Blacksmith Elf in The Night Before Christmas

*The greedy man George Brown in the show's other Christmas special, The House of the World

*The Prime Minister in The Brave Little Tailor

*The Chamberlain in The Chinese Nightingale

*The King's Counselor in Drakestail

*Sir Ector in King Arthur

*The Emperor in Princess Moonbeam (the show's adaptation of the Japanese story The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter)

*The Witch's servant Jacques in Jorinda and Joringel

*The mean innkeeper Mr. Schwarz in The Elves and the Shoemaker

*The mean innkeeper Mr. Crafty in The Donkey, the Table, and the Stick

*Thomas, one of the two heroic brothers, in Bluebeard

*The rat-turned-coachman in Cinderella

*The wise old man (and a talking parrot) in Why the Sea is Salt

*The father kings in Sleeping Beauty and The Six Swans

*The Witch's guard dog in Hansel & Gretel (just barking)

The next time I want to listen to a marathon of Let's Pretend episodes – as I sometimes do – I just might have to make some Lucky Charms ice cream or Lucky Charms marshmallow treats to go with it, in honor of Arthur Anderson.

Watching Star Wars as an Avenger must be funny because you've got:

Oscar Isaac as Moon Knight and Poe Dameron

Natalie Portman as Jane Foster and Padme Amidala

Paul Bettany as Dryden Vos and Vision/Jarvis

Lupita Nyong'o as Nakia and Maz Kanata

Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury and Mace Windu

Mads Mikkelsen as Galen Erso and Kaecillus

Ben Mendelsohn as Talos, Keller, and Orson Krennic

Ming-Na Wen as Melinda May and Fennec Shand

Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian and Aaron Davis

Andy Serkis as Snoke and Ulysses Klaue

Forest Whitaker as Saw Gerrera and Zuri

Hannah John-Kamen as a minor role in Force Awakens and as Ava Starr

Benicio del Toro as DJ and the Collector

Richard Armitage as a Naboo pilot and Hydra assassin

Jon Favreau as Rio Durant, Pre Vizsla, Paz Vizsla, and Happy Hogan

Stellan Skarsgard as a future character and Erik Selvig

Richard E Grant in the First Order and Classic Loki

Cailey Fleming as young Rey and young Sylvie

Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano and Claire Temple

Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra and a future character

Not all of them are obvious, but sometimes just hearing a voice or seeing a background character makes me wonder where I once saw someone, so I included minor characters and voice acting. But do they ever just turn on a movie and are like, "Hey, she kind of looks like the Cavalry, right?"

Fowler was the second publisher of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass in 1856. The Wikipedia page for LoG doesn't list Fowler's name next to the 1856 edition for some reason but mentions it on the page for Fowler, but miscredits him as publishing the original not the second there. Here's a quote about it:

"Walt Whitman's interest in phrenology led him on 16 July 1849 to the Phrenological Cabinet of Fowlers and Wells in New York City's Clinton Hall, where he sat for a phrenological examination. The Fowler brothers from Cohocton, New York, were practitioners of the science of mind which held that mental faculties are indicated by the skull's conformation and can be analyzed and improved. The Phrenological Depot established by O.S. and L.N. Fowler in 1842 offered casts of skulls, phrenological busts, and books, as well as phrenological examinations. With the admission of their brother-in-law, Samuel R. Wells, in 1844 the firm was restyled Fowlers and Wells. 

Whitman's examination was made by Lorenzo Fowler, a skilled practitioner, and the written analysis, followed by a listing of faculties with their sizes, made a strong impression upon the subject. It was a perceptive reading that appraised Whitman as strong in "animal will" with large Amativeness, Self-Esteem, and Individuality. Whitman quoted from the analysis and published it several times. Phrenological themes and language appeared in his poetry. 

In 1855 Fowlers and Wells advertised Leaves of Grass as for sale at their new Phrenological Depot at 308 Broadway. With the departure from the firm of Orson S. Fowler, occupied now with the octagonal house he had built in Fishkill, New York, and with his writings on phrenological subjects, the firm became Fowler and Wells. Its London agent, William Horsell, would play a part in establishing Whitman's English reputation. In October 1855 the American Phrenological Journal, published by Fowler and Wells, carried Whitman's unsigned review of Leaves of Grass. By November, Whitman became a staff writer for another Fowler and Wells periodical, Life Illustrated, his contributions including the series "New York Dissected." 

The expanded second edition of Leaves of Grass was published anonymously by Fowler and Wells in August 1856. Stamped in gold on the spine of each volume appeared, without authorization, Emerson's words, "I Greet You at the Beginning of a Great Career." 

The book's unfavorable reception led the firm to withdraw their support of and relationship with the poet who, in turn, became disenchanted with the phrenologist-publishers. As for the Fowler brothers, through lectures, publications, and phrenological examinations during the decades that followed, each continued to popularize the belief that self-knowledge through phrenological analysis could lead to self-improvement. This they did without reference to Walt Whitman, the poet they had once perceptively analyzed and published without an imprimatur."

Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2023) Review

If there is anyone who can say the word “f***ing” so eloquently it is Jason Statham. It’s like Samuel L. Jackson’s signature “motherf***er” line - it just works!

Plot: Elite spy Orson Fortune must track down and stop the sale of a deadly new weapons technology wielded by billionaire arms broker Greg Simmonds. Reluctantly teamed up with some of the world's best operatives, Fortune and his crew recruit Hollywood's biggest movie star, Danny Francesco, to help them on their globe-trotting mission to save the world.

Yet again our dear fellow British filmmaker Guy Ritchie attempts to kickstart another spy espionage franchise, and once again it seems his attempt is faltered, in this case with Operation Fortune suffering a year long delay of its release due to its distribution company going into administration, as well as the little fact of that little war between Russia and Ukraine making it kind of awkward to release a movie where Ukrainians are the bad guys. I mean, how was Guy Ritchie supposed to predict that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was gonna happen?? It was so unexpected. It wasn’t as if this conflict was going on since 2014 or anything. Regardless, we finally see the release of this film, to which I myself am really happy about, as personally I really do enjoy Guy Ritchie’s movies. From his stylish direction to an almost poetically Shakespearian way he manages to write swear words as if they were song lyrics; his movies have always been really enjoyable. So now another spy espionage with Jason Statham in the lead? Why the heck now, let’s gooo!

Immediately what I can say I really admired about Operation Fortune is that it doesn’t set out to be another massive action blockbuster on the level of those Fast & Furious flicks or even the more recent James Bond outings. Instead it happily exists on a much more smaller scale, and much better for it. Here in the UK this film bypassed cinemas and went for a straight to streaming release via Prime Video, and that works for the movie’s benefit as this is the kind of simple easy-watch entertainment one can relax to on a weekend evening, with some good laughs, a decent amount of action thrills and a very likeable game cast. My dear fiancée even observed that she found this movie to be absolutely “delightful”. I get what she means - this crime caper really breezes through its content with Guy Ritchie’s trademark sharp wit in the dialogue, and all the talent involved seem to all be having an utterly splendid time.

Jason Statham is always a safe bet when it comes to having an action star in your movie. He’s charming, elegant, yet got that enough brutishness to make him feel like the one in control of the room. And his passive delivery of lines make for some very amusing moments. Aubrey Plaza is as sarcastic as ever, and Cary Elwes has such a deep yet wonderful sounding voice. Like this man could read me an audiobook any day of the week - just saying! Hugh Grant is highly entertaining as the eccentric billionaire, and shows that the recent partnership between him and Guy Ritchie working together is so far a solid 100% success. 

Overall Operation Fortune is very much for the fans of Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham. If you like them then this is a safe bet of an entertaining if forgettable watch, but at the end of the day Ruse de Guerre works as a wonderful light popcorn flick.

Overall score: 6/10

Ensayo - ℙ𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕔𝕖 𝕠𝕗 𝕗𝕠𝕩𝕖𝕤

El príncipe de los zorros es una película de 1949 de aventura y romance dirigida por Henry King y protagonizada por Tyrone Power y Orson Welles. Basada en la novela homónima de Samuel Scheraberger. La historia está ambientada en el siglo XVI, durante el renacimiento italiano. La trama de la película gira en torno a un aventurero y mercenario llamado Andrea Orsini, el cual es visto por primera vez con uniéndose al príncipe Cesare Borgia, en su conquista de Florencia. Un hombre astuto y valiente, Orsini se encuentra rápidamente en una situación en la cual debe equilibrar su lealtad a la familia Borgia con su creciente atracción por Camilla, la bella hija del gobernador florentino, la cual es interpretada por Wanda Hendrix. Orsini y Camilla tienen una relación tensa y complicada ya que ella representa a la ciudad que Borgia quiere conquistar, lo que la pone en una situación un tanto difícil, por otro lado Orsini también se encuentra luchando por el amor que le tiene a Camilla con deber hacia Borgia, lo que lo lleva a tomar decisiones difíciles que pondrán en riesgo su vida y la de Camilla. A medida que avanza la trama de la película, Orsini debe decidir si permanecer leal a la familia Borgia o trabajar con Camilla y la ciudad de Florencia para derrocarlos. Sin duda, esta es una historia donde las luchas de poder, la lealtad y el amor chocan, con elementos y referencias históricas que recrean el renacimiento italiano en un escenario increíble. Recomiendo esta película para los amantes del cine histórico, viejo y romántico.

Pd: vuelvo a dar crédito a la producción de casting por escoger a Handa Wendrix (que no sabía quien era hasta que la busqué) porque es bellísima 10/10, y si escogí la película porque soy fan de las películas VIEJAS.
