Archiving my artistic influences thread from twitter, continued. I liked this exercise, for all the usual narcissistic reasons, but also bc by juxtaposing all these artists that have affected me, I see where they connect to each other as well as myself. - Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 -

Quand deux actifs se retrouvent dans le même lit, cela pourrait créer de grosses frustrations. Sauf peut-être quand ces deux hommes ont une énorme envie de satisfaire leur partenaire.
Just thought I'd share these posters, since I never really post anything here. Anyways I became obsessed with WHF the game is so so good and funny with a great story!!!
So in the 80's there were a few Python adjacent projects ,this was Graham Chapmans, a parody of pirate films and its brimming with comedy talent :Written by Chapman and Peter Cook,music by John Morris and a cast including Chapman,Cook,Eric Idle ,John Cleese,Madeline Khan ,MArty Feldman ,Peter Boyle ,Kenneth Mars,Cheech & Chong .....and legendary actor JAMES MASON!!! Now this film should be comedy classic......Why have I barely heard of it though?.....
In this 1983 film After 20 years in prision Captain Yellowbeard (Graham Chapman) is forced to team up with his son Dan (MArtin Hewitt) who has the map to his buried treasure tatooed on his head
OK this film starts off on a good note ,like I said the cast is amazing and most of them are pretty great :Madeline Khan gets som laughs as Yellowbeards wife ,Eric Idle is solid as a secret serviceman ,Peter Boyle is a good antagonistic pirate and its fun to see him and Marty Feldman as a duo(Also this is Marty
Feldmans final role ,as he died during production) ,John Cleese as a blind informant is pretty funny ,and by GOD Peter Cook is the funniest thing in this movie as this old aristocrat /surrogate father to Dan ,he barely has to move but the way he carries himself makes him so funny.I also was pleasently surprised by Graham Chapman,I thought id find him iritating but watching the film reminded me "Oh yeah Chapman was a legit great and underrated comedic actor " and he really sells this unpleasent ,insane monstrus pirate ,hes pretty good here .Honestly I was laughing for a good half hour......Then the rest of the film just SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKS
I dunno what happens but this went from a pretyy funny movie to garbage as soon as the heroes are forced to join a naval vessel captained by James Mason,(In perhaps his worst performance ,I love James Mason,one of my fave actors ,but he does not look like he wants to be in the film and he isnt even allowed to be funny )Thats also when Yellowbeard kind of dips out of the movie for a bit ,and for movie called Yellowbeard he isnt in it alot .Now to be fair maybe they thought too much Yellowbeard would be exhausting but unfortunately our other lead is Dan who is .....Dull as dishwater.They dont do anything with the fact Dans a thinker or anything substantial with the father son bond .I also think the film suffers from having too many antagonists when Peter Boyle was enough ,and one of the villains is Tommy Chong who.....Is just so miscast as a baddie (Cheech Marin as his assistant however is brillaint ).Theres a love story that comes out of the blue and goes nowhere.My other very big complaint is.....Theres like 10 r*pe jokes ,like more then I expected and they are uncomfortable
Overall,the first half hour works .......But then it keeps going and it doesnt work
Heyo, I'm new as hell to Tumblr but I have been writing on Wattpad for years. Decided I might as well post on here considering how much I read here. If this post is weirdly formatted I'm sorry, I'm trying!

Dutch Elm Disease
Valencia Robin
When Danny Johnson's big brother was killed in Vietnam,
Danny ran around the block five times. I counted. Ran
as if when he stopped his brother would be back in their driveway
washing his car. But nobody knew anything about time travel
back then, Star Trek hadn't even come out, Lieutenant Uhura
still on Broadway doing Blues for Mr. Charlie. And even if Danny
did understand the space-time continuum, his parents
weren't having it, his mother on the porch yelling
his name, his father tackling him on the front lawn, all us kids,
the whole block standing there on pause. Which didn't exist
either. No fast forward, no reverse. We weren't even Black
yet. Was Milwaukee even Milwaukee? Is the Lincoln Park Bridge
still there, do boys like Danny still climb over the rail,
hug their bony knees to their narrow chests and plop into the river
as if there's no way his parents could lose two children?
Which is all I know about Vietnam, that and the way the sun hung
in the faded sky as Danny ran around and around
and held the air hostage, that and the way the thick August air
ignored the leaves of all our doomed elm trees
and let itself be held hostage. The streets were like ghosts
when they cut down those trees.

I started looking up an old Comedy Zone lineup this week because I was writing a biography of Andy Zaltzman and wanted to see who'd done that with him, and then I fell down a small rabbit hole, and now I've accidentally taken screenshots of the Comedy Zone blurb in every Edinburgh program for the 24 years it ran (1991-2014 - I think, 1991 was definitely the first and I couldn't find references to it in later programs) and then made a list in text of all the lineups by year. I've done things like this before and usually there is at least some sort of point to it, but in this case it really is just autism, I saw a chance to make a list and I took it. It's not for any larger thing. But it might be kind of fun to look at?
The Comedy Zone was a thing where Avalon picked a few of its new people and had them perform as a mixed bill in the middle of the night throughout the Edinburgh Festival. As far as I can tell it was very frequently people who had not done a solo Edinburgh show before that year, but would do their first one the following year, so they were about that level of new.
I find it slightly interesting that I've heard of at least one person in all those bills, two or three in most of them. All four in 2000, 2009, 2011, and 2007. The 2007 thing I know in further detail from John Robins' Chortle blogs that chronicled his Comedy Zone experience from that year. Blogs that I highly recommend reading (archives exist from July and from August) - to anyone who shares my weird interest in Edinburgh Festival comedy history with a specific focus on the 00s, or to anyone who thinks John Robins is too intense now, and you would like some perspective on how much farther it used to go.
Anyway, I'm quite sure the number of people I've heard of in that list of Comedy Zone performers is disproportionate, compared to if you took a Fringe program from any of those years, made a list of all the comedians in it who had never done a full solo Edinburgh show before that year, and then took four random people from that list. The fact that Avalon could consistently pick which new people were most likely to go on to be famous (at least, famous enough for me to have heard of them, as a person in Canada in 2024), even though none of them were famous when they were first picked, is a sign that Avalon is a really really good judge of talent, and/or that there is truth in the conspiracy that Avalon secretly runs all of television. Possibly a bit of both. (My favourite example of that theory is this video, where they say at the beginning "Reds were made up mostly of Avalon acts" - no one in that video was particularly famous when it was filmed but there is a notable discrepancy now in the levels of fame from one team to the other).
The list is kind of interesting to read as a timeline of when people really kicked off their comedy careers, so it might be worth opening the link below for that. But really, I just made a pointless list of names for no reason and wanted to do something with it so I've stuck it here.
1991: Simon Munnery (as Alan Parker), Stewart Lee, Mark Lamarr, Chris & George
1992: Brenda Gilhooly (as Gayle Tuesday), Harry Hill, Al Murray, Andre Vincent
