Trespassers Will Be Eaten

Happy 50th Anniversary, Jaws! 🦈

In light of the film’s anniversary yesterday, I just remembered that I created fan-made more than a decade ago (when the film was only 35 years old), yet never posted for whatever reason.

For context: a prequel to Jaws was conceptualize to involve expand upon Quint’s experiences about serving on the USS Indianapolis, yet never made in favor of ‘Jaws 2.’

I always thought there was potential in that concept, which could also lure Spielberg back to the director’s chair. (If you look at the credit texts, I clearly gave a lot of thought to the cast and crew of this fake film.)

Behold my speculative poster to ‘Jaws 5,’ which Spielberg and Carl Gottlieb made to erase the stench of ‘Jaws: The Revenge.’

Given that Duchovny might be finest recognized for taking part in heroic conspiracy theorist Fox Mulder in the X-Files franchise, it’s ironic that he’s releasing “Layin’ on the Tracks” in the midst of an period of Facebook-disseminated pretend information and normal tin-hat hysteria. Of course, in Mulder’s case, a lot of his conspiracy theorizing was confirmed true — the fictional FBI particular agent was on the fitting aspect of fictional historical past. But it’s attention-grabbing to think about which aspect of precise historical past Mulder would be on in 2020.

“I have thought about it, just because it’s an obvious thing to want to think about, especially for me who played that character. It is odd, because I’d be sitting here going, ‘So Mulder’s, basically, he’d be like a QAnon?’ And that bothers me!” Duchovny chuckles. “And I like to think that it’s not true, because as you say, Mulder was onto something true. And the QAnon people would say the same thing, right? They’d say they were onto something true. So it’s a little weird, a weird thing to think about. It’s certainly of a different time, and certainly conspiracies have always made for good movies and television, because they’re dramatic and they have bad guys.”

A perfect syllogism:

Mulder was onto something true-

QAnon were not  onto something true -

So Mulder is not with QAnon-

I’ve definitely given this a thought or two given the state of affairs in 2021.

For those playing at home, this is how Alan Alda met his wife Arlene in 1956 — they’ve been married for more than half a century.

They are the gold standard of celebrity marriages.

One Second of Every Episode of the West Wing

Whenever I think of any of the iconic moments from The West Wing, it’s always tangibly connected to Thomas Del Ruth’s gorgeous, shadowy cinematography. As with any compilation I’ve made, it started with befuddlement from a YouTube search that ‘One Second from Every Episode of the West Wing’ didn’t yield results. During the making of this video, it became clear why: 155 episodes of a single television series is A LOT of content to trawl!

I opted to take a different tack than most 'One Second of Every of BLANK show' videos, which is dictated by out of context noises and dialogue, instead choosing to go in the direction of Andy Kelly's Twin Peaks montage from 2018 where he set scenes from the series to an atmospheric Angelo Badalamenti score. Simple yet elegant. And perfectly appropriate for this beautiful show, too.

If you don’t see your favorite shot in there, please know I made every effort to include all the iconic dramatic and comedic scenes. When I assembled this video, it originated with a shot list with four or five alternates from any given episode. There were some painful cuts to reach the final shot compilation that I made. A big thank you is due for the women who run ‘thefinestmuffinsandbagels’ Tumblr site, whose page I constantly used as a reference throughout this project.

Your site was invaluable in sourcing which clip belonged to which episode and provided inspiration when I was stumped otherwise. Without you, I would have been a lonely, stir crazy man scouring my Complete Series Box Set looking for clips. Thank to Hrishi Hirway for keeping the spirit of the West Wing alive!

Let's flip the Senate. Register. Donate. Vote.

[bittylildragon]

I know people are being shown right now that voting does not fix everything, so some people might be feeling despair and wondering why we even bother to vote. Often the Democrats we vote in are still imperfect. But that does not make voting less important. We must still vote, and then we must HOLD THOSE DEMOCRATS ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR CONSTITUENTS. Both political actions are important!! An crappy Democrat in office leaves much to be desired but is still miles better than a Republican, so we must ensure that Republicans do not win.

Hello Tumbler friends! If you have GIFs of Jim Hopper throwing Alexei/Smirnoff the car keys from S3E06, please direct them to my way. I’ve rewatched that scene like three times and I suddenly need those GIFs in my life now...

I give him 30 seconds before he comes knocking on that door, right back into our arms, with a new sense of humility.

Jim… I, uh, believe he has started the car.
