The Rise Of The Leylandii
How #leylandii conquered the country 'gardenhistory
Leylandii an evergreen coniferous tree of very fast rapid growth In 1911 at Leighton Hall, Christopher’s nephew, Captain Naylor, after picking up a cone from a Monterey cypress growing fifty yards from a Nootka, noticed that two of the resultant seedlings were markedly different from the rest. The difference from the 1888 seedlings was that the Monterey was the female parent. The seedlings were…

Lisa Frankenstein Filming Locations
“It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another.” ― Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
As promised, here are some of the filming locations for Lisa Frankenstein. As I just saw Kathryn Newton at Spooky Empire in Orlando this past weekend, I decided to stalk filming locations for some of her cooler movies. Or you can just watch the video I made, which covers all the locations but it goes into much less detail:
youtube
I found most of the locations on my own, but then received a location list from a person on the film's production team which confirmed the ones I'd already found and gave me the ones I was missing. Big thank you to that person!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
***Spoilers below***
We'll start with Lisa's home which is located at 2552 Cypress Lawn Dr, Marrero, LA 70072. The shed in the back yard for the tanning booth is really part of the property, & can just be seen from the street (circled in red in second image).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now, if you go there, remember, THIS IS PRIVATE PROPERTY. Perfectly fine to admire it from the street, but do not trespass, do not knock on the door, do not ask for a tour, & do not ask if Lisa is home. Please. Now, if the folks living there say 'Hey' & invite you in when they see you in the street taking selfies with the house, that's another thing entirely - but otherwise, low profile it.
Although they filmed a little bit inside the real house, at least for the scenes where Creature first arrives, most of the house interiors were filmed on a sound stage which I know thanks to Zelda Williams posting this photo:
Tumblr media
And that sound stage is The University of New Orleans Nims Center Studio located at 800 - 824 Distributors Row in New Orleans. I know this because of this picture from a behind the scenes video showing the entire cast & crew taking a group photo with two distinct architectural features circled. The next image is a Google street view of the same location with those features also circled.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Per the locations list, the party house Lisa & Taffy go to early in the film is located at 12565 Patterson Rd, New Orleans, LA 70131, which I've confirmed via location detail on Google maps:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And the high school is Belle Chase high school at 8346 LA-23, Belle Chase, LA 70037, which I've also confirmed via architectural detail:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The exteriors for Bachelor's Grove Cemetery & the woods around it, the wooded paths, & the bench scenes all take place in Brechtel Park, which is located in the Algiers neighborhood of New Orleans.
The park offers roads for driving scenes as well as thick woodland with vines & dense ground cover for the cemetery set - which, sadly, was entirely fake. Below is the exact location of Bachelor's Grove.
Tumblr media
Bachelor's Grove is located at GPS coordinates 29.9100534 -90.0124431. The easiest way to get there is to take an asphalt sidewalk that you'll find about 100 feet to the right of the entrance. That sidewalk will take you around the north edge of the park and then turn left (south) where you will look for the 2nd marked trail. Follow that trailfor about 50 feet and you'll find a second marked tree, which I call the Twisted Tree, and you're in Bachelor's Grove.
Tumblr media
Moving along, the scene at 1:17:37 in the film where Creature goes to retrieve Janet's (Lisa's step-mom's) car and kills the mean old man who is harassing the kid who can't start a lawn mower, was filmed at the south dead end of Dede Street in Marrero, LA at GPS 29.855776, -90.093451.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rather pleased with myself for finding that one - not easy.
Creature then returns to just outside Bachelor's Grove, which again was filmed in Brechtel Park, with precise location circled in the third image.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lisa & Taffy arrive there & Lisa psychs herself up to go into the cemetery to kill Creature at GPS 29.906104, -90.009096
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is still in Brechtel Park, they just moved the cars about 30 feet to the west & spun the camera around - the dead giveaways are those posts along the road & the two small hills in the background.
Lisa then runs down a wide, woodland path.
Tumblr media
This photo of one of Brechtel Park's wide, wooded paths is the same path, located at GPS 29.908912, -90.011958.
Tumblr media
And here's that spot circled below:
Tumblr media
When Dale, Lisa's dad (played by Joe Chrest, who also plays the Wheeler's dad on Stranger Things), & Taffy visit Lisa's grave at the end, they are standing in the southern section of Carrollton Cemetery in New Orleans, at GPS 29.947097, -90.121813.
The reason they used this location is because Carrollton is one of the few New Orleans cemeteries that has a large section where all the graves are below ground, as this movie is supposed to be taking place near Chicago.
As for how I know they used this specific location, I have a wine bottle shaped tombstone to thank for that. In the below image, we see that odd tombstone from the front.
Tumblr media
And here we see it from the back, as I wasn't able to get a clear image of it from the same perspective of the above image:
Tumblr media
Also rather proud of that find.
And the final scene on the bench is also in Brechtel Park at the location circled on the map, GPS 29.909290, -90.010784.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So the only significant filming location I can't find is Michael's red brick colonial, but whatever. Found Michael's house, too!
Tumblr media
Anyway, here's to hoping we all find that special someone who was reanimated just for us. 🦇🖤🦇

Honestly I’m not sure The Murderbot Diaries are a great basis for a streaming show, since so much of what I love is Murderbot’s narrative voice, but lately I have been spending just an absurd amount of time thinking of my dream cast, and so far what I have is:
Arada - Sandra Oh (this is my most powerful idea; Murderbot says she has a very expressive face)
Mensah - Viola Davis (yes I know she has better things to do with her time)
Pin-Lee - Madeleine Sami (since Our Flag Means Death and Deadloch I am kind of obsessed with her)
Volescu - William Jackson Harper (look, anyone who’s seen The Good Place is ready for him to play a nervous academic again)
Overse - Tawny Cypress (she’s great in Yellowjackets)
And characters we meet in later books:
Indah - Rachel House (Mary Read from Our Flag Means Death and the henchwoman in Thor: Ragnorak; if you’ve seen Hunt for the Wilderpeople you know she’s both funny and terrifying as a law enforcement bureaucrat)
Tiago - Stanley Tucci
And my most unhinged idea, but for the voice of ART: Bowen Yang

Panic! in Four Minutes — VoicePlay music videos
All singers are performers, but VoicePlay have definitely earned their moniker as the theater kids of the a cappella world. When they decided to create a medley of PatD songs, they wanted their own accompanying videos to have a bit of the same short-film aesthetic as the band's original videos. What ensued was a mid-summer location shoot, a kidnapping scenario straight out of a heist film, and even a dramatic cliffhanger.
youtube
Details:
title: Panic! in Four Minutes, part 1
original songs / performers: all songs by Panic! At the Disco — "Victorious"; "I Write Sins Not Tragedies"; "Emperor's New Clothes"; "Miss Jackson", feat. Lolo; "The Ballad of Mona Lisa"
written by: all songs by Brendon Urie in collaboration — "Victorious" with Mike Viola, Morgan "White Sea" Kibby, Jake Sinclair, Alexander DeLeon, Rivers Cuomo, & CJ Baran; "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" with Ryan Ross & Spencer Smith; "Emperor's New Clothes" with Jake Sinclair, Lauren "Lolo" Pritchard, Sam Hollander, & Dan Wilson; "Miss Jackson" with Dallon Weekes, Lauren "Lolo" Pritchard, Jake Sinclair, Amir Jerome Salem, & Alex Goose; "The Ballad of Mona Lisa" with Spencer Smith, Butch Walker, & John Feldmann
arranged by: Layne Stein & Earl Elkins, Jr.
release date: 13 July 2018
My favorite bits:
the rhythm section's crisp beginning
that incredible chord from the end of the "Victorious" intro section doubling as a frightened scream
Earl's focused tone on that falling chromatic line
everyone slumping in their seats during the first transition
Eli's defiant rock grit on "Emperor's New Clothes"
slipping that key change into ♫ "anywa-ay-ay" ♫
adding chair and chain sounds to Layne's already impressive percussion (and using the latter as a radio edit)
J.None's lovely falling run on ♫ "rationality" ♫
such beautiful harmonies on "Ballad of Mona Lisa"
Geoff's subharmonic drop on ♫ "believe" ♫
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media

youtube
Details:
title: Panic! in Four Minutes, part 2
original songs / performers: all songs by Panic! At the Disco — "This Is Gospel"; "High Hopes"; "Say Amen (Saturday Night)"
written by: all songs by Brendon Urie in collaboration — "This Is Gospel" with Dallon Weekes & Jake Sinclair; "High Hopes" with Jake Sinclair, Jenny Owen Youngs, Lauren "Lolo" Pritchard, Sam Hollander, William Lobban-Bean, Jonas Jeberg, Taylor Parks, & Ilsey Juber; "Say Amen (Saturday Night)" with Jake Sinclair, Sam Hollander, Lauren "Lolo" Pritchard, Imad Royal, Nathan Abshire, Suzy Shinn, Tom Peyton, Tobias Wincorn, & The Budos Band
arranged by: Layne Stein & Earl Elkins, Jr.
release date: 20 July 2018
My favorite bits:
the panicked (ha!) heartbeat sounds
Layne's gentle timbre on the opening of "This Is Gospel"
everyone jerking against their chains as Earl belts out ♫ "let me GOOO" ♫
the soft bell chords under Eli's lead section
Geoff rounding out the low end as Eli sings ♫ "all tied up" ♫
Layne putting his increasing frustration into the percussion through rhythmic breathing
Earl mouthing "What the fu–?!" when Geoff haphazardly tosses the key so far out of his reach
that blazingly high ♫ "SaturDAAAAY" ♫ from J.None
all the others cringing away from the bomb as much as they can when the timer nears the end and Geoff takes a wild guess at which wire to cut
finishing on pure octaves for that last ♫ "vic-tor-i-ous" ♫

Trivia:
These videos were filmed at an abandoned sawmill previously owned by the Wilson Cypress Co. in Palatka, FL. According to the guys' various anecdotes, the place didn't smell great, and there were some wasps flying around. The things they endure for their art.
The original PaTD videos for three of the songs included in this medley — "Say Amen", "This Is Gospel", and "Emperor's New Clothes" — contain a continuous story known as the Devil's Key trilogy. It stands to reason that the key around Geoff's neck is a reference to that.
One eagle-eyed viewer spotted another bit of PatD inspiration in the visuals for these videos.
Tumblr media
J.None has said that the B5 wail in "Say Amen (Saturday Night)" is the highest note he's ever hit. Considering that he's a natural baritone, and now sings bass with the SeaChanters, that's darn impressive.
Similarly, Geoff's E1 at the end of "Ballad of Mona Lisa" was his lowest recorded note at the time. (He has, of course, surpassed that by half an octave in the years since then.)
Makeup artist Dana Bracewell from Makeup and Creative Arts provided the fake dirt and injuries. (No singers were actually harmed in the making of this video.)
The cover art was designed by VP's longtime friend and collaborator Rek Dunn.
The guys demonstrated the opening tape pull for production assistants Rek and Hayley in the trailer where they got gussied up. Hayley ended up doing it in the video.
instagram
The Facebook upload of "Part 1" racked up two million views in a day and a half, six million in less than a week, 10 million before the end of the month, and 15 million in just over three weeks. After six years, it's sitting just under 30 million.
It also nudged them over 600,000 followers on Facebook.
A fan brought the first video to Brendon Urie's attention on Twitter, and he passed it along to his fans, which certainly didn't hurt.
Tumblr media
A few fan artists were inspired to capture the guys' predicament, and speculate about the aftermath.

VoicePlay's video for "Billie Eilish in 3 Minutes", released a little over a year later, is a prequel to this story, showing how they ended up in so much danger.
Some fans have embraced a headcanon that the video for "Queen in 5 Minutes" is the next episode in this story, and that Earl ends up in the hospital because Geoff cut the wrong wire and failed to stop the explosion.
The unified video was originally only available to Patreon patrons, but it was uploaded to VoicePlay's TikTok account after five years.
During a break in filming, Eli's shared a story about a mishap that occured while he was playing Fortnite.
instagram
They also used their break time to practice a little stunt work.
instagram
They even created a suitably dramatic trailer for this two-parter.
instagram
A single-track audio version was later included on VoicePlay's "Citrus" album, which compiled most of the songs they recorded from 2017-19. Because the individual songs had already been made available digitally, that album is exclusively a physical item that can only be purchased at live shows or through their website.

A Dream of Death
William Butler Yeats
I dreamed that one had died in a strange place
Near no accustomed hand;
And they had nailed the boards above her face,
The peasants of that land,
Wondering to lay her in that solitude,
And raised above her mound
A cross they had made out of two bits of Wood
And planted Cypress round;
And left her to the indifferent stars above
Until I carved these Words:
She was more beautiful than thy first love,
But now lies under boards.
