3 and 37 for ask game if you please :)

(rubs hands together gleefully) you asked about movies. this is my moment. Hold on to your hats, it’s Tentacledwizard Rant Hour.

3 films I could watch for the rest of my life and not get bored of:

FACE/OFF, dir. John Woo. 1997, rated R for faces being taken off, killing and murder, John Travolta licking his fake daughter’s face, pretty much everything you can think of that’s R-rated. Starring Nicolas Cage and John Travolta.

 So, I was told I shouldn’t watch this movie because it was “boring” and “terrible.” ok, dad. sure. It proved to be neither! As soon as I finished it I wanted to rewatch it just to observe the nuances in Nick Cage’s acting. And John Travolta’s, but Cage is who I’m really here for. He plays this unhinged, flamboyant villain, then does a complete 180 (body swap, sorta) and plays a straight-laced FBI man PREVIOUSLY played by John Travolta (who, you guessed it, now plays the flamboyant villain).

The acting. The ACTING augh I could analyze it for hours. I’m not even good at analyzing facial expressions and stuff (it is the tism) but the acting skill in this movie made me even more of a Nicolas Cage fan. The sheer range of emotions that wash over his face during a fight scene in a prison. god DAAAAMN. He plays two men in one movie- one who’s just batshit insane and reveling in it, and another who feels like he’s become the former in more ways than just physical.  

 FBI Man finds himself melting into this persona he’s playing, and he feels perversely drawn towards the villain’s lifestyle. He’s wearing the face of the guy who killed his child, and he’s starting to enjoy it. Meanwhile John Travolta walks around wearing the face and mannerisms of a straight-laced FBI man, and his ascent to power is scary to watch. It’s (rolls around on floor screaming) it’s so good. I haven’t seen A LOT of movies so if you asked me this question in a couple months, my answers here would probably change. However, Face/Off is not moving off this list. 

There’s even a funky little evil man who stole scenes from Cage himself. He plays the villain’s brother, Pollux (name sounds like Sollux, and he  points out the inherent eroticism of salmon in documentaries). Something about his line delivery has made me deeply obsessed with him. He and his brother are messed up and evil but they care about each other almost codependently. It’s fascinating to me. Also for some reason the scene where Nick Cage talks about his first date with his wife makes me cry. One second I’m thinking about the scientific inaccuracies inherent in the movie’s plot, and the next I’m looking at Cage’s sad face through a layer of saline. Curse you, sentimentality.

So, yeah, Face/Off is incredibly good. Certainly not perfect, but super fun. Also this is the 90s and all the stunts are entirely practical, which is super sick. The two golden guns are iconic and almost certainly inspired Jake English’s strife specibus, lmao. And… Nick Cage! Yeah I think that’s enough Face/Off thoughts I can put here before this becomes an entire longpost. (checks Face/Off google results) HOLD ON NOW there’s going to be a Face/Off 2? Or is this just a rumor? Woah. I will have to google this.

National Treasure, dir. John Turteltaub. 2004. Rated PG-13 for guns and a mildly suggestive scene because of course they had to put a blonde lady in a mildly suggestive scene, and British people. Stars Nicolas Cage, Justin Bartha, and Diane Kruger. 

Yeah ok at this point this is like my default movie. Should I be ashamed for enjoying this? Nuh uh. Life is too short to be ashamed for enjoying a silly action movie. Im killing cringe culture with two golden guns. In other news I have seen this movie eight times, and talked about it to anyone who’d listen. Here is a full review of it that I wrote. When I missed out on a trip to Washington DC, I watched this to really immerse myself in the setting. When my mom and I wanted to watch a film, I put this on and she said “phallus” every time the Washington Monument was onscreen because she’s fun like that. When my best friend whom I love dearly came over, the first thing I did was put on National Treasure. It’s kept me grounded and also gives me a good chuckle at some of the goofier scenes. This movie is a…

It’s a…

The joke is low-hanging fruit, but yeah, it’s a national treasure. This is admittedly Cage at his most mainstream. He’s an action movie hero guy, but in a PG-13 movie made by Disney. When asked about a possible National Treasure 3 in interviews, Cage seems kinda annoyed. I mean hey, I would be too. His acting in this film doesn’t seem like something he’s personally interested in, although he does a good job. However, I think his character’s parallels with Nick Cage’s real life are pretty interesting, especially because the director knew Cage since highschool. More on that later.

Where Face/Off’s selling point was “Nick Cage and John Travolta swap faces,” this one’s is “Nicolas Cage steals the Declaration of Independence.” And then a bunch of other stuff happens, but that one sequence is the best in the entire movie. The parallels and differences between two teams’ methods of stealing the Declaration really got to me. After that, there’s a bunch of adventuring… making leaps in logic… puzzles… what’s not to love! :D I will say that the main character is somewhat casually misogynistic in this film, which makes me grimace every time. He does learn his lesson in the second movie (though he remains pretty static, which frustrates me because there was an OBVIOUS CHANCE for character growth there… hmm maybe I will review nat treasure 2 sometime).

Something I forgot to mention in my full review is that Jon Voight and Harvey Keitel are in this movie, which is quite the slay. However, this means that I ended up thinking of Jon Voight as a Good Guy the next movie I saw him in (Mission Impossible). Uh. so apparently Jon Voight plays a lot of villains. As for Harvey Keitel, he plays an FBI Man. (looks at “Harvey Keitel movies” page) OH SHIT he’s in THAT MANY iconic movies?? That’s awesome. He’s a cool guy!

Ok, let me talk about Jon Turteltaub. So Nick Cage and Jon Turteltaub went to the same high school, and they both wanted the lead role in Our Town. (Trust me on this, I’ve read like three Nicolas Cage biographies.) Turteltaub got the lead role, whereas Cage got the role of Constable Warren. According to this interview, Turteltaub never let him live it down. Ouch. So after that, Cage couldn’t stand Our Town. and then after THAT, Jon Turteltaub went on to direct the National Treasure movies. Guess who stars in National Treasure! Yeah, that’s an anecdote that is just really funny to me. They also collaborated on Sorcerer's Apprentice, which I have yet to see. Nick Cage plays a sorcerer, hells yeah. Now according to Turteltaub, “there’s a lot more Nic in [the sorcerer] than in [the main character of National Treasure].” Yup, that’s pretty much what I thought. (shakes head) Nick Cage movies, amirite? If you really want a lot more National Treasure thoughts, check out my review! Yeah ok that’s enough shilling for myself, ha ha. This is a cool movie and you can watch it whenever, with whoever. Probably. P.S. everyone is at their most autistic swag in this movie. But especially Riley Poole, played by Justin Bartha. I adore him. 

3. Anger Management dir. Peter Segal. 2003. Somehow rated PG-13 despite the constant sex jokes. Starring Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson.

Ha ha, PSYCHE. i absolutely hate this movie

3. Employee of the Month dir. Greg Coolidge. 2006. Rated PG-13 for retail working and reference to Vince Downey [Dax Shepard] seducing women in various places around a Costco. Stars Dane Cook, Jessica Simpson, and Dax Shepard.

I really like this movie. What more can I say? It’s a low-budget rom-com from 2006, and the director did not need to go that hard with the gay subtext. But he did! And I am forever grateful. (checks time) it’s getting kind of late, so let me direct you to my super hype review that I wrote a while ago. The reason I wouldn’t get bored of watching this movie is the sometimes batshit, beautiful turns the plot takes. Bam, this rom-com is now randomly a sports movie for a few minutes. Now Vince and his sidekick Jorge are breaking into the main character’s house to make him late for work. I don’t really know how to explain, I just love that kind of thing in a movie. It’s unpredictable and fun in kind of a stupid way. 

Also, Jorge and Vince are the emotional core of the movie. Their relationship is messy, but it’s even more sweet and heartfelt than the actual main romance of the story. It’s the romantic B-plot. If Employee of the Month were an Alternian movie, Karkat would go into a huge rant about its portrayal of moirallegiance through Vinzce and… Jorgay (lmao). Pretty similar to what I did in my previous review. If you realllyyyy wanna read a scene-by-scene breakdown of their relationship, check that one out! Actually that one is just me having emotions about them. “OMG THEY HUGGED.” u kno. that sort of thing lmao. @creatcher made some fanart of them kissing yey :D

So, yes, Vince and Jorge are amazing, and Jorge is especially amazing. Can’t wait to see Napoleon Dynamite (his actor plays Pedro in that one). There’s a lot to be said about the character Efren Ramirez plays here, but I doubt I have the expertise to really do a critical analysis. also this is still a low-budget romcom about retail workers. OH yeah also the plot is really funny- the romance turns out to have very little by way of stakes, so it’s actually Zack (played by Dane Cook) competing against Vince for employee of the month. That’s the core conflict of the movie. Well, one of them. They’re literally jousting in a costco like “two gay old sailors” (Vince’s words, not mine). This movie portrayed homestuck quadrants before they were even a thing (refer to a shipping chart @cgtg and i did for more clarity). Employee of the Month is unexpectedly great. Obviously none of the movies on my list are perfect- this one includes some racism/ableism from Vince, and I already mentioned the National Treasure misogyny- but they have a lot of redeeming qualities. And i mean a LOT.  they also all have a short guy for me to be obsessed with. So that’s the three movies I picked, and why I’ll never get bored of them. Hmm. I guess it depends on how many times I watch them!

Share a secret: 

 Hmmmm ok this is a tough one. uuuh… ok here goes: My darkest secret is that my crush looks exactly like John Egbert. There’s a real person in real life who looks like John Egbert. One cannot fathom the amount of horror this entails. They even have the same taste in movies. The same SHOES. That’s your secret for the day, tune in for more at 10!

Yep, I wrote a lot of stuff for this ask. It was fun, though. I enjoy ranting about movies. Thanks for the qs!

Pink House and the Grand Tetons

The story behind the pink. "While John’s wife, Bartha was in the hospital, John wanted to do something special to commemorate her homecoming. He knew that she had wanted to repaint the house, and due to a small mix-up, chose the salmon pink color. When Bartha came home, she despised the color but so loved the sentiment behind it, that it was never changed." John Moulton passes away at 103 and in 1991 the family moved out and the property was transferred to Grand Tetons NP.

Archivists and archival themes in the National Treasure franchise

Occasionally, archives are shown in popular culture, whether in film or other media. This is because, as Jeff O'Neal put it, "Hollywood loves a library" because the "combination of ambiance, seclusion, hidden knowledge, and the sheer beauty of shelves upon shelves of books" make libraries a fantastic setting for films. Hollywood does not portray the debate within the archival field or any nuances. There is a lot of the confusion between libraries and archives in the Star Wars franchise. To start this, let me begin with the National Treasure franchise.

Reprinted from my Wading Through the Cultural Stacks WordPress blog on July 28, 2020.

In the 2004 movie, the first of the franchise, two would-be thieves do research in the Library of Congress and try to find "a way to break into the National Archives so they can steal a priceless historical document." While there are parts of this movie which make some cringe (understandably), like historical inaccuracies and bad preservation practices, some say that "anything that...puts butts in the seats at the National Archives is alright by me."

Diane Kruger (as Dr. Abigail Chase, the archivist), Nicolas Cage (as Benjamin Franklin Gates, treasure hunter), and Justin Bartha (as Riley Poole, a computer expert) look at the Declaration of Independence, courtesy of the Peel Archives blog.

In the film, Chase is an archivist working at the National Archives and is accidentally kidnapped when he "steals the Declaration of Independence" leading to wacky and historically inaccurate adventures. As some archivists make clear, she is not typically "archivisty" or "librarianistic" but instead is "all Channel suites and evening dresses," meaning that while she "wears attractive clothing she manages to avoid the sexed up male-fantasy version of the librarian/archivist." She isn't "your wilting-flower variety information professional." Instead, she is "full of feistiness and one liners throughout ridiculous and dangerous events" but does, jokes the archivists, "lose points for allowing Cage to use the Declaration as a bullet shield." Another review by a fellow archivist, Kyle Neill, adds that "Chase comes to embrace the adventure, although she, like any good archivist, remains fiercely protective of the Declaration document" and that the team is "ultimately successful, locating the treasure deep underground in Manhattan." At the end of the film, as Neill writes, Chase isn't drawn to "the gold jewelry, statues, or other artifacts found in the huge underground cavern." Rather, she is fascinated by "what she identifies as scrolls from the lost Library of Alexandria."

However, as Catherine Lucy, Technical Services Manager/Archivist at Fontbonne University wrote in Solo, the quarterly newsletter of the Lone Arrangers chapter, depictions like the one in National Treasure end up reinforcing "stereotypes that surround the profession," especially of archivists. The film that followed, National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007), is worse, having Nicolas Cage return as a treasure hunter, hoping to solve the "mystery behind Abraham Lincoln's assassination with missing pages from his killer's, John Wilkes Booth, diary," with his father (played by Jon Voight) assisting him. And of course, Chase, still working at NARA, assists him. They have some sort of fight behind Mount Rushmore, discovering a secret indigenous city of gold. That's where the movie becomes silly and worthless. Sure, it grossed a lot of money, but that doesn't mean that it is a good film. In fact, the movie critics gave it awful reviews. For instance, Peter Bradshaw, in The Guardian, writes that although the film is sometimes entertaining it is "mostly pretty tired, with worryingly semi-serious conspiracy theory stuff" while Roger Ebert notes the strange plot holes, saying that there is no plausibility or logic in the film. Ebert notes how the movie has the same National Archivist and only praise it for its "completely unbelievable special effects." Ebert similarly criticized the 2004 film, calling it so silly that "the Monty Python version could use the same screenplay, line for line."

Beyond this, Lucy mentions two articles which review mentions of archives in popular culture: Tania Aldred, Gordon Burr, and Eun Park's "Crossing a Librarian with a Historian: The Image of Reel Archivists" in 2008 and Arlene Schmuland's "The Archival Image in Fiction: An Analysis and Annotated Bibliography" in 1999. The first of these articles talk about National Treasure, notes the librarian character in The Mummy, while noting films like In the Name of the Father and Citizen Kane (considering the character is an archivist). [1] They also reviewed The Mask of Dimitrios (1944), Carlton-Browne of the F.O. (1959), Agnes of God (1986), Treasure (1990), Secret Nation (1992), Just Cause (1995), Ridicule (1996), The Avengers (1998), Blade (1998), John Carpenter’s Vampires (1998), 8mm (1999), Erin Brockovich (2000), Bartleby (2001), Possession (2002), Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones (2002), and The Time Machine (2002). Looking at a sample set of 21 films, they found 14 male archivists and 7 female archivists, with almost half of the female characters wearing buns. Almost half of the characters were only cameos, which is unfortunate. They found that reel archivists are "physically and behaviourally following...established stereotypes," and are not used interchangeably as "librarians in the films." This article attempts to fulfill the call by the writers for further study:

Future research, including an expansion of the current study to increase the sample film size, is clearly necessary in order to solidify the results we have discovered. As well, the study, or related studies, should be expanded to include other forms of popular culture such as television programs, movies, and advertising; an exploration of the positive or negative portrayal of reel archivists; the amount of technology reel archivists are portrayed as utilizing; an examination of the archives represented in films; and a comparison of archival characters in books-to-film with their counterpart literary sources...The current study benefits the archival profession by providing a solid base for archivists to begin examining their portrayal in the media...the influence of the media means that its vision or perception is imparted to the public on a regular basis, and thus ultimately shapes how the archival profession is viewed, either positively or negatively. By examining how the public perceives them, and how they are being portrayed, archivists can gain a better understanding of themselves and their perceived place within society, identify areas of longer-term concern, and thus work toward strengthening that position.

The second article looks at 128 novels, noting how perceptions of librarians are shaped by films like The Music Man, and looking at various novels. [2] Schumland notes that, simplistically, archives are "not only repositories for the source documents of history, but for history itself" which many authors and filmmakers have not recognized. She also notes that the fact that documents or information is stolen from archives "implies that archival holdings have value" although not every author follows this advice, with archivists as custodians of paper and "representatives of history." As such, records are either seen as history, secrets, or garbage in fictional writings, although many fictional archives "represent more than just collections of papers," having the potential to reveal the truth, represent history, and provide information. However, stereotypes are often useful tools for authors, acting as a shorthand for character description. Furthermore, male archivists are often in supervisory roles while female archivists are not, with archivists generally middle-aged to elderly.

Clint Eastwood in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (Sergio Leone, 1966)

Cast: Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach, Lee Van Cleef, Also Giuffrè, Luigi Pistilli, Rada Rassimov, Claudio Scarchilli, John Bartha. Screenplay: Agenore Incrocci, Furio Scarpelli, Luciano Vincenzoni, Sergio Leone. Cinematography: Tonino Delli Colli. Production design: Carlo Simi. Film editing: Eugenio Alabisi, Nino Baragli. Music: Ennio Morricone. 

Clint Eastwood's Man With No Name* may be the movies' most famous picaro, the roguish hero who wanders through an often hostile landscape, surviving by his wits -- and in this case, his skill as a gunman. The picaro's heart is generally in the right place even if he doesn't mind breaking a few laws to get his way. In the first two films of Sergio Leone's "Dollars Trilogy," A Fistful of Dollars (1964) and For a Few Dollars More (1965), he is a loner, but in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly he has picked up an unlikely (and untrustworthy) sidekick in Tuco (Eli Wallach), with whom he is working a scam: Tuco has a price on his head, which our hero collects by bringing Tuco in to justice, and then splits with Tuco after rescuing him from a hanging. Tuco is a more vicious Sancho Panza to No Name's more capable Don Quixote. Leone himself once admitted his debt to the picaresque tradition, and The Good.... was filmed in Spain, where the tradition began with Lazarillo de Tormes in 1557 and produced its most influential analog in Don Quixote.  But who, in the mid-1960s, when Leone was making movies derided as "spaghetti Westerns," would have anticipated such analysis or the veneration those films receive today? Half a century ago, when Leone's trilogy was being released, critics were raving about films like A Man for All Seasons (Fred Zinnemann, 1966), Doctor Zhivago (David Lean, 1965), and Becket (Peter Glenville, 1964): "prestige" movies on high-toned subjects that have dated badly, while Leone's movies still get enthusiastic viewings. The Good.... is overlong, especially in its latest restoration, which runs for 177 minutes, and there's some confusion in integrating the Civil War's New Mexico Campaign scenes with the story of the titular triad. But there are few scenes in movies more dazzling than Tuco's dash through the cemetery and the subsequent three-way standoff. Lee Van Cleef is a suitably scary Bad guy; Eastwood demonstrates the growth as an actor that would continue as his career soared; Wallach gives one of his best performances: and the contribution of Ennio Morricone is breathtaking. Raw and unpolished as The Good, the Bad and the Ugly at times is, it remains memorable filmmaking, while the films more celebrated in its day are mostly forgettable. *Actually, he picks up a name in each of Leone's "Dollars Trilogy" films: In A Fistful of Dollars he is called "Joe," which is a generic name for an americano. In For a Few Dollars More he is known as Monco, the Italian word for "one-armed," in reference to his tendency to use his left hand while keeping his gun hand under his poncho. And in the third film he is dubbed "Blondie" by Tuco. (The color of Eastwood's hair seems to me like a minor characteristic, but "Tall Guy Who Squints and Smokes Cheroots" would have been a mouthful.)

Cannibal Ferox- 1981

Review: This movie was not well written, well acted, and it's not scary. The real horror is in the morals of the people that made the movie. When I want to watch a horror movie, I want to watch people fake die, and be entertained. I don't want to watch real animals, be actually tortured and killed.

This is one of those movies that's not trying to tell a good story, or make a statement about something, it's made with the pure intention of trying to gross out, and be the goriest thing you've ever seen.

Their is no substance to this movie. The story is dumb, the characters are shallow, and purposefully written to make the audience hate them so we cheer along as they get killed.

It was made with the sole intention to drive people into the theater from pure curiosity to see how gross it could get. The tag line for the movie was even "The Most Violent Film Ever Made".

The whole movie was built around how gory it could get, and then the effects of the gore were cheap and obviously fake. They didn't even color the blood of one of the people right in one of the more graphic scenes. It was lazy.

Don't waste your time watching this movie, I'm judging myself for finishing it.

3.5/10

Another 'Late to the Party' moment with the final part of this trilogy.

After the slight disappointment I had with Part Two, I wasn't expecting much from this movie... but I was surprised.

It was better than I thought it'd be.
