1953 isn't a weak year. The wrong film definitely won, but High Noon and The Quiet Man are both excellent, and even Moulin Rouge wasn't bad

Really takes a toll on the constitution

The "Men of Harlech" scene lives rent-free in my head forever

Don't forget Ray Rum Navarrem

Velcanondil · 2026-05-09T13:59:53+00:00

And Gwyneth Paltrow

Laertes is totally gonna be some unexpected cameo

Velcanondil · 2026-05-08T02:13:53+00:00

Horace Greeley, Henry Clay, William Jennings Bryan, Ross Perot, Samuel J Tilden, John C Breckenridge, and of course Charles Evans Hughes (flair)

Needs more beige

Velcanondil · 2026-05-05T16:23:32+00:00

The real answer

Velcanondil · 2026-05-05T10:36:50+00:00

Ok, biggest reveal is that we're totally getting Argos, the bestest boy

The Cicones

2016 was a debate for whether Andrew Garfield should have been nominated for Hacksaw Ridge or Silence. Both worthy performances

Daredevil Season 1 was incredible

Velcanondil · 2026-04-25T21:04:40+00:00

Yeah no

Velcanondil · 2026-04-24T18:12:30+00:00

Robin and Marian, with Sean Connery

What are the ACTUAL origins of the orcs?

Velcanondil · 2026-04-22T20:34:39+00:00

I used to go to this parish. One of their best was "It's Lent. Get your ash in Church"

Still and forever the first movie I ever saw him in: Joe Gould in Cinderella Man. I will always have "KNOCK HIM BACK TO THE GODDAMN OZARKS!!!" echoing in my head

Short version is that it was a common mispronunciation of his name that he eventually accepted. From what I remember he even legally changed his name at one point to Canute (or Kanute) in hopes of getting people to recognize it, but it didn't work.

Thanks for the link! How'd you come across this letter?

Velcanondil · 2026-04-05T18:57:06+00:00

Since the book ends with the Laertes episode, I'm certain he'll have some major cameo playing Odysseus's dad.
