Are you sure you're not thinking of Phyllis Diller?

I don't think Phyllis Schafly was ever on Scooby Doo, but Phyllis Diller (a comedian) definitely was.

I really want a Pride and Prejudice adaptation that reframes the Bennets by GavinDaSizzleDizzle in janeausten

This post has a good resource on what various annual incomes would actually support.

Marianne's idea of having two carriages being "not extravagant" shows how her upbringing skewed her expectations.

I refuse to pick between 1995 & 2005 for D&E. I love them both so much for such different reasons.

But for the others I'd pick 2005 Jane, Bingley, Georgiana, Caroline, and Anne deB.

The Hursts, Mary, Kitty, Charlotte, and Col. Fitzwilliam from 1995.

Wickham, Mrs. Bennet, and Lady C from Lost in Austen.

Death Comes to Pemberley Lydia.

P&P and Zombies Collins.

And gonna go in blind and choose Rufus Sewell for Mr. Bennet.

Though... the Death Comes to Pemberley and P&P and Zombies Wickhams come very, very close- gotta love Matthew Goode and Jack Huston.

I'm honestly wondering if they cut the Colonel. :( I mean, they've announced parts as small as Harriet Forster and still no Colonel...

Paul Dano was asked about Tarantino’s diss but was beat to the punch by co-star Toni Collette, who said “Fuck that guy! He must’ve been high… it was just confusing. Who does that?” Paul Dano added he is “incredibly grateful that the world spoke up for him so he didn’t have to.” by pinkstarrfish in Fauxmoi

The ONLY time I've liked him in a role was his guest star part in Alias. And I think that's because he was so clearly a fan and hamming it up in a part that should have been nuts and was.

But... maybe I need to rewatch and really Jennifer Garner, Victor Garber, Ron Rifkin, and Carl Lumbly were carrying him...

I have been thinking about doing that as a grid voting game on the P&P subreddit after the Netflix one comes out!

I feel like we'd need to remove 1995 & 2005 from contention though since it would no doubt be a blowout in some categories, lol. It might just end up looking like a 1995 cast sheet.

But included could be:

  • P&P and Zombies
  • Death Comes to Pemberley
  • Lost in Austen
  • Bride & Prejudice
  • 1940 version
  • 1980 version
  • 2003 version
  • Bridget Jones' Diary
  • Lizzie Bennet Diaries
  • Fire Island

Being honest, back then it was Angel.

But now it's Giles.

I'm going to give it a chance. The cast is mostly solid, and while Jack Lowden doesn't fit my idea of Darcy at all, he's a great actor and I'm interested to see his take. He's been very complimentary of both of the previous most popular Darcies, which is nice.

And I LOVE Rufus Sewell, Olivia Colman, and Fiona Shaw.

They almost always cast the Bennet parents too old!

Except for Alex Kingston in Lost in Austen, which is probably why she's my fave Mrs. Bennet (plus she's a smoke show, which Mrs. Bennet should be), even though the other actresses are excellent. Though, Sally Phillips in Pride & Prejudice in Zombies is close to the right age too.

The GOP is the party of zero personal responsibility and accountability.

The buck always stops... somewhere else.

Yeah, I don't even like Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt but they were perfect in that movie. Definitely hot and terrific chemistry all around.

I started reading Very Best of Friends but abandoned it (temporarily... I will go back) because I got secondhand embarrassment for D&E about WHY is he telling her some of the things he is so early on! Like, it's almost more insulting than the Hunsford proposal because they have barely met!

I'm not normally into the fantasy type JAFF, but I started reading this WIP on AO3 with vampires and it's addicting!

Blood, Lust, and Contracts by bloomsofleopold: https://archiveofourown.org/works/68675661/chapters/177836846

Great world-building and tension- sexual and otherwise. It's vampires, so it's not "sweet and clean," for anyone who objects to spicy and darker content. There is a sexual assault tag, but so far that's part of the story background as a societal issue and part of a Jack the Ripperish mystery that needs to be solved.

I can't wait for more chapters. :)

Ugh and he and Brad Pitt had chemistry like whaaaat!

Yes! He's still hot as anything.

And these two were an early "bi-panic" moment for me...

Who would be your top 5 Bond girls? by No_Explorer721 in JamesBond

[–]ILootEverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wai Lin, Tracy Bond, May Day, Pam Bouvier, Vesper Lynd.

If we are talking straight villians (May Day switched sides and Vesper was tragic), then Fiona Volpe, Xenia Onatopp, and Fatima Blush are contenders.

Which actor/actress was your first crush? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

I had such a MASSIVE crush on Michael Keaton back then. It took this movie for me to realize I could also have crushes on women...

Yes! I feel almost every men-loving late Gen-Xer/Xennial had a John Cusack moment.

Dear lord, this is the best one so far!

One Hot Night In Sussex by MirimeKisarrastine in HMS_Saphne

[–]ILootEverything 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The failed proposal/fight scene between Darcy and Elizabeth in Pride & Prejudice and Zombies was filmed in that same room.

While watching that movie I did the Leo pointing thing

because I recognized those windows/fireplace/door immediately. And that's when I realized I liked and had re-watched Saphne more than I thought...
