When Cael Carzfinker, blade maiden of the ninth rank (etc., etc.) comes to the castle of Evil Wizard Mazurin to rescue a captive prince, the outcome is.... magical.

Why, it's the dark woods outside an evil castle, can't you tell? MUSIC AMB SPOOKY NIGHT WOODS SOUND WOLF HOWL IN THE DISTANCE SOUND HOOVES ON DIRT UNDER CAEL [sigh] Typical. AMALAN What? CAEL I could write a ballad already. AMALAN Oh, no. No, no, no - that's not your job. CAEL Shh. I'm composing. [muttering to self] AMALAN [whispered] [sigh] Typical. CAEL Evil castle looms ahead.... Hmm... Nighttime, need to rest my head-- AMALAN You can't rhyme head with ahead. CAEL It rhymes, doesn't it? AMALAN [exasperated sigh] CAEL [vague threat] I'm getting another sword.

[excited] Do you see what I have here, my smelly little homunculi? GIGLI But master--! MAZURIN [tsks] I've turned this drop of water into an equal measure of dust. GIGLI [flat] Why? MAZURIN It's a vital transmutation. A change like this could make a great deal of difference! GIGLI To a thirsty cockroach? MAZURIN No no, you have to see how, yes, on a tiny scale, this could be a negligible change-- GIGLI [sigh] Sir? MAZURIN --But if you do this a million times at once, with a million drops of water, you could cause an entire lake to suddenly turn to dust, ruining agriculture. And then, with a simple reverse, water from dust! GIGLI Good. Lovely. Can I report now? It's kind of urgent. SOUND FIDDLING ABOUT WITH BOTTLES, ETC. MAZURIN [still distracted] Uh - what? Yes, of course, go ahead. GIGLI Are you listening? SOUND BOTTLE SET DOWN MAZURIN [distant] Of course. GIGLI [exasperated] Oh! SOUND BOTTLE SMASHES ON FLOOR MAZURIN What? Why did you--? GIGLI Listening now? MAZURIN [annoyed] Yes, get on with it! GIGLI Someone is approaching the castle! MAZURIN [losing interest] Oh, well - set up the defenses. GIGLI It's an Amazon! MAZURIN [mildly interested] Oh, that's different. [shrug] Still, the defenses... GIGLI The moat monster is in labor. MAZURIN I thought it laid eggs. GIGLI Well, not after you did one of your little experiments on it. And it's not best pleased about it. MAZURIN Oh. GIGLI And the man-eating vines--? MAZURIN What? I didn't do-- They're not giving birth, are they? GIGLI Think it through? MAZURIN What? GIGLI Man-eating vines? Amazon warrior? MAZURIN [realizing slowly] Oh? Oh! GIGLI [sigh] MUSIC SOUND HOOFBEATS ON WOOD AMALAN Cael, I don't like this. CAEL You mean the way nothing at all tried to stop us from strolling right up to the front door of the evil wizard's castle? AMALAN [sarcastic] No, I meant the two-headed gargoyles - they're so passe'. Of course that's what I mean! There must be a trap-- CAEL I'll keep my eyes peeled. AMALAN Me too. CAEL You haven't any eyes. AMALAN Don't nitpick. SOUND HOOFBEATS STOP SOUND TAPPING OF FINGERS ON THE POMMEL CAEL [musing] No reception committee. No moat monster.... The gargoyles?

MAZURIN Tell them we don't want any. GIGLI [almost here] The Amazon? MAZURIN Oh, yes. She got through the defenses--? Oh, yes of course. GIGLI What are you going to do? MAZURIN Oh, the usual. GIGLI [sigh, down] Send me to find out what she wants? MAZURIN Good idea. Let me know what she says. MUSIC SOUND POUNDING ON DOOR AMALAN If it's abandoned, that would explain the lack of defenses. CAEL The high council doesn't send a questor to an empty castle. AMALAN They might not know. CAEL Yes. [sarcastic] Why don't you just go and point that out-- GIGLI [yelling from off, above] Hail, warrior! CAEL Hmm. Manners. [up] Who hails me? GIGLI I represent Mazurin, wizard of the crooked path, mage of the 8th tier, sorcerer-- AMALAN [muttered] Yeah, but can he dance? CAEL [side of mouth] Shh. [up] I have come to face your wizard. Open the gate. GIGLI What is your charge? Mazurin is an exceedingly busy mage. AMALAN Crooking tiers? CAEL [tiny sigh] I am Cael Carzfinker, Blade maiden of the 9th rank, slayer of 3 gorgons, and participant in the slaughter of the great red armadillo of Murcie-- AMALAN With a minor in [shudder] songwriting... CAEL --and I am charged by the high council of her most royal majesty Luria the balladeer-- AMALAN [muttered] Ballbuster. CAEL [trying not to react] --to find and recover the missing Prince Tupin of Vagon, with an eye toward marriage. GIGLI And my boss is supposed to care - why? CAEL The scryes say the prince is here - a captive in durance vile under the thumb of this "boss" of yours. AMALAN Excessive. CAEL And thus have I come to reclaim him. GIGLI Oh! Right. Hold on, I'll tell the wizard. CAEL Where'd he go? AMALAN Ducked behind one of those excrescences. CAEL I didn't see any of those. AMALAN [exasperated] The gargoyles. CAEL So we wait for the wizard to speak. SOUND DRUMMING OF FINGERS AMALAN Oh, you're not-- CAEL "Green and crooked, small and beady"... [searching for a rhyme] beady? Beeeee-dy. AMALAN Eyes are beady. He was more... seedy. CAEL Ah! "--Small and seedy, his locks were lank and eyes were beady". AMALAN [sigh] MUSIC SOUND SCRITCHING OF A PEN SOUND SLAPPING FEET RUN UP GIGLI [slightly puffed, laughing his ass off] Sire! She's here for him! SOUND DOINK AS OF FINGER SNAPPED AGAINST SOMETHING GLASS MAZURIN Him? Oh, well. That's simple then - I'll just un-glaze him, and-- GIGLI You can't just hand him over! MAZURIN Why not? Then she'll go away. Problem solved. GIGLI [exasperated sigh] Tradition? Ring a bell? MAZURIN Tradition? Oh, you're not going to say I have to fight to the death over a trifle like-- GIGLI No! But you're supposed to make her do tasks to earn him, so she'll spread word of your cunning and deviousness. [muttered] And so she'll keep him once she gets him. MAZURIN Oh. I'm far too busy to come up with some silly tasks. What does tradition say? GIGLI I'll make you up some note cards. Want me to let her in? MAZURIN An... Amazon? Don't they sleep in barns or something? GIGLI I certainly wouldn't want to be the one to suggest it to her. I'll find her and tell her you will speak to her at dinner. MAZURIN I will? GIGLI Tradition. MAZURIN [pouting] Fine. Tell her, then come back and find me some [vague] ... robes. MUSIC GIGLI [off] ...This way, and the wizard will be with you shortly. SOUND BOOTED FEET ENTER ECHOEY HALL AMALAN Roomy. CAEL Kind of dusty, isn't it? AMALAN Hard to keep help in an evil castle. CAEL [agreeing] Hmm. SOUND POOF! MAZURIN [booming voice] Dusty? Humph! SOUND POOF! SOUND WATER DRIPPING ALL OVER. AMALAN [doubtful] Impressive? MAZURIN [muttered] Oh, drat. CAEL [wiping her face] Well, that's new. SOUND SPLAT OF WATER SHAKEN OFF MAZURIN [trying to save face "I meant to do that"] It's... something I've been working on. AMALAN You could use it, back home. CAEL Shh. AMALAN You could finally get your quarters clean. CAEL Shh! MAZURIN What? CAEL Nothing. [declaring] Mighty Wizard, I have come to recover the most noble prince Tupin and bring him home to wed. This is my quest. [snarls] Do not stand in my way. MAZURIN Oh, of course not. AMALAN What? GIGLI [hissed] Master! MAZURIN Huh? Oh right - as long as-- um, you-- GIGLI [whispered prompting] Can overcome my challenges three. MAZURIN --Can overcome three challenges. GIGLI [muttered] Close enough. CAEL Of course. Name your challenges. MAZURIN [taken completely aback] Oh! Well-- GIGLI [whispered] You forgot the cards? [stepping forward] My great master will issue you each challenge at the break of dawn on three successive days. Then you will have until sunset on the same day to complete each one. CAEL Morning? Why not start now? AMALAN Tradition. GIGLI Tradition, milady. CAEL Fine. What now? GIGLI Dinner? CAEL Hmm. How about showing me the prince, so I know I'm not wasting my time? MUSIC SOUND RINGING OF CRYSTAL AMALAN Well, it's a guy. CAEL He's... glass? MAZURIN Much less irritating that way. GIGLI [jumping in] For the great wizard finds the company of mere mortals a burden - he turns them into glass to show his mighty contempt. AMALAN That's a lot of contempt. CAEL It's rather a lot of prince. Ok, oh great wizard - let's just get this straight right up front. When I beat your challenges, you'll turn him back to normal before letting me take him, right? MAZURIN That goes without saying-- GIGLI After the first challenge, he will be returned to flesh. After the second, he will awaken, the third, you may take him. CAEL Good, I don't want to have to cart around a giant glass statue - must weigh a ton. And it would be rather unfortunate if I dropped him. MAZURIN Not really. AMALAN Nice. CAEL You said something about dinner? MUSIC SOUND DINING GIGLI More port, sire? MAZURIN [dismissive] Yes, yes. Now um, if you can picture this fork as an oncoming enemy-- SOUND CLINK OF FORK - clink clink clink MAZURIN Then the napkin - I mean the entrapment grass, remember - would of course slow him-- GIGLI Your port. MAZURIN Over there, beside the battlefield. GIGLI [exasperated sigh] SOUND CUP SET DOWN. MAZURIN Where was I, oh yes, slow him-- SOUND CLINKS GET MUFFLED, THEN SLOW MAZURIN --and eventually stop him. SOUND MUFFLED CLATTER AS FORK IS WRAPPED UP IN NAPKIN CAEL [interested] Clever. MAZURIN Really? CAEL Immobilizing an enemy makes him an easy target. So you put your strength into archers, to pick off the enemy soldiers stuck in the fields like-- AMALAN Garden gnomes? CAEL --like so many topiary. Hmm. Not bad at all. I could even write a song about that. AMALAN Oh, please don't - he'll turn you to glass. CAEL Shut up. MAZURIN I didn't say anything. CAEL Not you-- [sigh] I have this curse-- AMALAN I am not cursed. CAEL --of a sword. It talks to me. MAZURIN Do you often hear weapons talk? AMALAN [snickers] CAEL No, really. Here-- SOUND UNSHEATHES SWORD CAEL Say something. [beat] [apologetic] Great, now she's pissed at me. [muttered] Don't make me look bad. [up] When she's in the sheath, I'm the only one who can hear her. GIGLI Your sword is a girl? Isn't that somehow counter-intuitive? AMALAN Big words from a goblin, bub. CAEL [heavy sigh] See? MUSIC SOUND WALKING INTO SMALLER CHAMBER GIGLI Sleep tight! SOUND DOOR CLOSES CAEL I can't believe you would embarrass me that way! AMALAN Embarrass you? Who called who cursed? CAEL No, I said you were "my curse", not that you were accursed. AMALAN Oh. That's different. CAEL How's that damn wizard gonna have any respect for me now? AMALAN Who cares? He's old. And evil. CAEL He's not that old. AMALAN And evil. CAEL [shrug] That's his job. MUSIC SOUND DOOR SHUTS, TIPTOEING SLAPPY FEET MAZURIN [roaring] Gigli? GIGLI Gurk! [deep breath, then bright] Yes, master? MAZURIN What did you think you were doing, insulting an Amazon like that? GIGLI I -- I didn't-- MAZURIN You called her a lummox! GIGLI She was... playing you, sire! I was only defending your-- MAZURIN What? Playing what? GIGLI Playing games. You know no one ever actually listens to you when you rant on about one of your inventions, and there she is [squeaky] "oh how clever! You're so smart!" [normal] blech! And you-- MAZURIN [wounded] Of course people listen to me-- GIGLI I don't. MAZURIN [huffy] You're just a familiar. GIGLI [muttered] Don't remind me. [up] Sire, what I meant is she's trying to soften you up, get you to like her, so the tests will be easier. MAZURIN What's wrong with that? GIGLI [sigh] You have a reputation to uphold, my mighty lord. MAZURIN Oh, I really don't-- GIGLI --and if it gets out that you're a pushover, every Tom, Dick and Harry will be at your doorstep, looking to get something from you. MAZURIN [gasp of panic] GIGLI And when will you ever get anything done? MUSIC SOUND PACING IN THE ECHOEY DINING HALL AMALAN So wizards don't wake up as early as warriors. So what? CAEL It's dawn. He said dawn. AMALAN Barely. Sit. CAEL Nah. I'm hyped. I'm ready for something really difficult. A good fight. SOUND POOF! MAZURIN The challenge is-- CAEL [eager] Yes? MAZURIN Now, if you think the challenge is too hard, you can back out and go away, you know. AMALAN Ri-i-ight. CAEL Not gonna happen. MAZURIN I am not adverse to leaving someone alive to spread word of my cruelty and -- and--. GIGLI [hissed] Cunning! MAZURIN And cunning. CAEL And? MAZURIN And...? [thinks] and... meanness? CAEL [sigh] And the challenge? MAZURIN Right. You must ... empty my entire moat into a single tankard. AMALAN [eyeroll] Oh, jeez. CAEL [skeptical] Are you sure? MAZURIN Sure? SOUND SORTING THROUGH CARDS, STOPS MAZURIN Um... yes. That's the first challenge. AMALAN You wanna tell him, or should I? CAEL Ok, here's the deal. I could go out into the yard, smack a big hole in the bottom of a tankard and then cupful by cupful pour slimy moat water into the now bottomless tankard until there's nothing left in your pond but silt, dying fish and a pissed off moat monster. MAZURIN Oh. [whispered] Would that work? SOUND FLIPPING PAGES GIGLI Uh-- Yeah. CAEL Or I could-- MAZURIN [whispered] I can go on to another one. GIGLI [whispered] Nah. You can't switch horses in midstream. CAEL Is everything all right? MAZURIN [up] Just a moment! AMALAN Ka-ching! CAEL What? AMALAN You aced it - he might demand you actually go through with it, but he seems surprisingly reasonable for an evil wizard. CAEL I still don't think he's all that evil. AMALAN He turns people to glass and makes grass that grabs you. CAEL And I bring in archers to kill the immobilized troops-- MAZURIN All right. We've got this settled. AMALAN He lets his familiar be part of the decision process? CAEL I talk to a sword. [up] Yes, oh mighty wizard? MAZURIN Well. [ahem] Rather than have to restock my pond-- AMALAN Boo-yah! MAZURIN --we're going to take it as read that you completed the first task, and start fresh in the morning. CAEL What do we do for the rest of the day? MAZURIN [at a loss] uh... well... [doubtful] You could... come and see my workshop? AMALAN Spare me. CAEL That would be fascinating. AMALAN No really, spare me! CAEL While we're there, you can turn the prince back to flesh. MAZURIN Oh, right. Of course. AMALAN Couldn't you leave me with the blasted goblin? At least he can hold a conversation. CAEL Shut up. MAZURIN What? Oh, right, the sword. Did I mention that I've figured out how to turn water to dust, and vice versa? Mostly only a drop at a time, just yet, mind you - since it's very hard to control in large quantities - oh, well, except for last night-- CAEL Oh, is that what that was--? MAZURIN --but I was -uh- trying to make an impression. MUSIC CAEL [singing, but a bit shaky] the mighty warrior calms her rage goes into the castle dark and drear wond'ring what sort of wicked mage might be he that liv-ed here and whether she would see another day! SOUND LIGHT BUT ENTHUSIASTIC APPLAUSE MAZURIN [admiring] You wrote that just last night? CAEL I - I couldn't sleep. It's not finished. MUSIC MAZURIN I work on very small amounts at a time - no need, really, to enchant huge things. Saves space and lord knows, who wants seven tons of aspic just lying around? MAZ and CAEL [CHUCKLE] GIGLI [exasperated] On that culinary note - Master, do you plan to dine here in the workshop? MAZURIN Dine? But it's hardly even dark out-- Oh! Well. CAEL No wonder you keep lighting candles. MAZURIN I didn't even notice, I was so caught up-- GIGLI Din-ner? MAZURIN Of course. Of course. Shall we? CAEL [stretching] I hadn't even thought about it, but I am famished. GIGLI And your sword? CAEL don't be silly. Swords don't eat. She's been awfully quiet, though. AMALAN I have been trying to ignore you. You're acting like a scullery maid who got smiled at by a lord. CAEL What? AMALAN And it will get you into trouble- this mage is the enemy. He's enchanting you. MAZURIN Something wrong? CAEL No. [thinking] Nothing. MUSIC GIGLI Sleep well. Challenge at dawn. All that. SOUND DOOR SHUTS CAEL Check me for magic. AMALAN Why? CAEL You're the one who said he's enchanting me. AMALAN I meant he's charming you - not like a CHARM charm, just by being a smooth talker. CAEL So you don't really suspect a spell? AMALAN I don't see anything out of the ordinary. CAEL Whew. That's a relief. MUSIC SOUND BANGING ON THE DOOR GIGLI Rise and shine! It's dawn. SOUND DOOR OPENS SLOWLY GIGLI Hello? Hmm. SOUND FLAPPY STEPS INTO THE ROOM GIGLI Must already be down there... [mischievous] We-e-e-ell. SOUND PAWING THROUGH HER THINGS GIGLI Figures an Amazon wouldn't have anything interesting in the way of undies. Lace would ride up something fierce. What's this? SOUND PARCHMENT UNROLLS GIGLI [reading] "The great and mighty Queen Luria" blah blah blah "doth decree" Oh doth she? Blah blah blah. "That prince Tupin should be returned safely to her royal residence in order to be joined in marriage and alignment with her oldest daughter [ with feeling] princess Cael!" [tsks, then truly rueful] Boss ain't gonna like this. MUSIC MAZURIN The test for today-- [muttered] where is that idiot goblin anyway? [up] Is for you to clean out the stables of my thirty terribly ferocious horses. CAEL OK. But this one's going to be easy too. AMALAN Unless they've been eating fermented oats - remember that one time at bard camp? MAZURIN Oh? CAEL Course. I've spent my entire life around the royal stables. Horses like me. MAZURIN Oh, I suppose we could just call it even and I could show you a few more-- CAEL Nonsense. MAZURIN Nonsense? CAEL Silly! First - I might as well prove I can do something to earn my keep. And second, if it's such a test, I can't imagine the poor horses having to live there without it being cleaned. Which way? MAZURIN Oh, um, I'll take you there. SOUND FOOTSTEPS PROGRESSING THROUGH HALLWAYS CAEL That would be lovely. Oh, is there anything in the tests that says I can't ask someone for help? MAZURIN I'm not sure - Gigli would know, but-- CAEL Well, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. MAZURIN But there's only really one, well, person, you could call on to help, and Gigli isn't fond of any kind of animals-- CAEL Oh, he's not who I was thinking of. MAZURIN What, who, then? CAEL Nuh-uh. Not until you decide if I can - don't want to give it away. MAZURIN [enjoying the byplay] Shall I guess? CAEL Nope, just decide, then I'll tell you. MAZURIN All right. Yes. You can ask someone, but I can't constrain them into helping you. CAEL [laughs] Fine. You wanna help? MAZURIN Me? CAEL I'll do all the heavy lifting, but I thought maybe once the bulk is gone, there's plenty of dust in a good old hayloft... MAZURIN Oh! [laughs himself] Oh, yes! AMALAN [disgusted] Oh, gods. MUSIC GIGLI No, no, no, no, NO! She wasn't supposed to have any help at all - how could you have missed that part? MAZURIN You weren't there to cue me, so you can't complain. What do you think of my beard? GIGLI Your beard? Why? MAZURIN I've trimmed it down a bit - I think it's rather dashing. GIGLI [disgusted] Dashing? MAZURIN Makes me look a bit of a rakehell. Do you think I should wear the green or the black robe? I like green better myself, but black is so very... oh... manly-- [hums tunelessly to himself.] GIGLI Oh, you moron! [sigh] She's supposed to marry the prince. MAZURIN [hum cuts out with a gasp] wh-wh-whatever do you mean? [Blustering, trying to laugh] What? Ha-ha-ha. [losing momentum, starting to wind down] What did you think I was ... doing? GIGLI I really hate to burst your bubble, especially since you actually eat and bathe right now, but I saw it in her gear. She has to get the prince back and marry him. MAZURIN She has to-- GIGLI Said "Princess Cael" big as life. MAZURIN Oh. MUSIC SOUND CAEL GETTING DRESSED AMALAN Lucky for you, you were in the barn when he doused it. No one likes a smelly Amazon. CAEL Do you remember if I packed my teal chemise? AMALAN Isn't that the one you only wear for state occasions? CAEL Um, yes... AMALAN The one you say rides too tight through the chest and you hate to wear except that it brings out your eyes? CAEL [overly casual] Yes. Did I pack it? AMALAN I distinctly recall the words [mimicking] "phooey, when I go to do battle, who's looking at my... eyes?" CAEL Drat. AMALAN How can you stand him? He's so dull! CAEL Dull? What do you mean? AMALAN I mean what could possibly be more completely boring than turning dust to water - oh, yes. Turning locusts to aspic. That was much more boring. CAEL It was not. It's important magic. He's very clever. AMALAN Clever like a fox. No wait that's wrong... right... anyway, forget it. I means he's deliberately being disarming, CAEL Speaking of disarming... SOUND BUCKLE BEING UNBUCKLED, SWORD LEFT BEHIND AMALAN What are you doing? CAEL Just what you asked me to do - Sparing you.

TUPIN Aren't you a little underdressed? CAEL I - who? [whispered] Who is that? GIGLI You don't recognize him? CAEL Oh, the prince! Greetings, your highness. So pleased to see you upright - or at least sitting down. MAZURIN Have a seat, milady? CAEL Thank you so much, kind sir. TUPIN I don't have to stand. I'm royalty. CAEL What? TUPIN That crack about me not getting up when you came in - it's not like you're my mom or anything. Princes don't have to stand. GIGLI [whispered] Please let me leave, boss. I'm gonna kill him. CAEL I didn't mean anything-- MAZURIN [whispered] Go, then. GIGLI As you command. SOUND QUICK SLAPPY STEPS, DOOR TUPIN Well, you sounded very critical. I don't put up with that from anybody. Not even other royalty. MUSIC SOUND DOOR OPENS AMALAN Who's there? GIGLI Where is it...? SOUND SLAPPY FEET, SWORD SLID OUT OF SHEATH AMALAN Unhand me! GIGLI Hey, just wanted to ask you a couple of questions - as if I know what to do with a sword... Well, there is this prince... [nasty chuckle] AMALAN Prince Tupin? GIGLI Yeah. What a prize. AMALAN That bad? Is he - of course! He's awake, isn't he? GIGLI Unfortunately. AMALAN Oh, man, and I'm missing it. GIGLI If she doesn't clock him by the end of the evening, I'm no familiar. AMALAN Nah. She's under strict orders. GIGLI Yeah, I know. AMALAN You know.... what? GIGLI Oh, I was scouting for my master, and found the parchment in her things. He was really disappointed, you know. AMALAN Disappointed? Your master? Why? GIGLI That your princess will be marrying the prince. AMALAN Big whoop. She has to marry someone. Besides, it's years off. GIGLI Yeah, but he-- Nothing. AMALAN He what? GIGLI It's kind of amazing, really. Never seen my boss like this before - you know, picking out clothes by more than smell. And then finding out she's spoken for. AMALAN He's interested in the princess? That's kind of creepy. GIGLI Why? He may be a wizard, but he is a man. AMALAN Perv.

AMALAN Huh? Have you even seen the princess? GIGLI [halting] Your... lady warrior? AMALAN Oh, heck no. The princess Cael is-- Oh! You thought my boss was the princess? Gads! Half the girls in the country are named Cael, for the great queen who led her people out of darkness and taught them to fight? GIGLI Oh? Oh! I've got to tell him! SOUND SLAPPY FEET AMALAN Wait! You mean your master is really-- I thought he was just softening her up. GIGLI [snorts] He wouldn't know how to begin. Short of turning her to aspic... MUSIC CAEL With the extra horses, I can him get there and make it back in about two weeks. MAZURIN [a bit negative] Back? CAEL Yes. MAZURIN [grumpy] Why? CAEL [a bit deflated] To... return the horses? MAZURIN Oh, of course. [lying badly] I may not be here. I have a big trip coming up. But Gigli can see that you have a place to sleep... CAEL [backing off] Or I could always send someone with them. SOUND DOOR SLAMS OPEN, SLAPPY FEET RUN IN GIGLI Sire! There has been a grave error! MAZURIN [sharp] What? GIGLI It's entirely my fault, I admit - wait, what happened to the prince? CAEL He fell asleep. I think he ate too much. GIGLI [chuckles] I'll bet. Good one, sire. MAZURIN What is your news, mannikin? GIGLI Ah, yes. Um, can you come over here, maybe? CAEL I can... leave. GIGLI No! [urging] Master? MAZURIN Just spit it out. GIGLI [whispered] She's not the one.

MAZURIN But he saw-- GIGLI Princess Cael is marrying him. CAEL Yeah. She's my cousin. It's all arranged for her eighteenth birthday. Hey, if they ask, can I tell them you'll turn him back to glass until then? MAZURIN Not you? CAEL No. [thankful and sarcastic] I'm not worthy of one such as him. Besides, he's years younger than me. MAZURIN Then you can marry anyone you want? CAEL Once I successfully complete my quest. That's kind of why I took it. MAZURIN [horrible anticipation] Did you - have someone in mind? CAEL [suddenly shy] No. Why? MAZURIN Nothing. Just-- GIGLI This is disgusting. Just kiss her. CAEL But there's a third test--? MAZURIN Oh, yes... GIGLI [eye roll] The third test was too see if you could listen to the wizard and not fall asleep - boom, you win. Kiss her. MAZURIN [excited] Can we do that? GIGLI The whole test thing was mostly because I was really, really bored. ...And tradition. CAEL We should hold off the kissing until I complete my quest. There's always the chance the prince will get lost in the forest on the way back. GIGLI Now there's an idea... MAZURIN Perhaps an escort would be helpful? Hmm? CAEL ...and a cart. Then he could sleep the entire trip! GIGLI Poor princess. CAEL She throws things. I think they're actually well matched. MAZURIN [giddy] Well, perhaps a toast? CAEL And then you can finish telling me about your research into the relationship between the angle of sunlight and the movements of pond slime.

„Waarom wordt de staat Israël erbij gesleept als er een gesprek wordt gevoerd over Iran?”, vraagt verslaggever Wierd Duk zich af in een nieuwe aflevering van de podcast Het Land van Wierd Duk. Op1-presentatoren stelden het Israëlische ‘apartheidsregime' (hun woorden) gelijk aan de moorddadige theocratie Iran. Duk: ,,Dat dit mogelijk is, en dat zoveel mensen deze vergelijking rechtvaardigen, is echt schokkend.” Verder in de podcast: overheid en organisaties als Sire spreken de burgers steeds vaker toe als kleuters. Nu weer in een anti-polarisatie campagne. Duk: ,,Hier zie je de gevolgen van de psychologisering van de samenleving: „Mensen moeten per se worden beschermd tegen als kwetsend ervaren situaties.” En: in Oekraïne gaat het niet alleen om een strijd tussen democratie en dictatuur, maar vooral ook woedt er een oorlog om grondstoffen. Duk: ,,Oekraïne beschikt over enorme voorraden aan grondstoffen die essentieel zijn voor de westerse transitie naar duurzame energie. Met name in de Donbas. Zowel het Westen als Rusland wil de toegang daartoe veilig stellen.” En: hoe een noodlottig auto-ongeluk de aandacht vestigt op onveilige N-wegen. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Edgar Allan Poe's shaved muse. First Time you saw the movie? Plot: TOP 51. It's partly responsible for the creation of the PG-13 rating.Truth be told, it's Steven Spielberg who is really responsible for the introduction of the PG-13 rating. Both Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, which he directed, and Gremlins, which he executive produced, were rated PG upon their release, and subsequently criticized for not being kid-appropriate. To avoid being slapped with an R rating in the future, Spielberg suggested that the MPAA add a rating between PG and R. On August 10, 1984, Red Dawn became the first movie to be released with the new PG-13 rating. 2. Howie Mandel is the voice of Gizmo.It was the suggestion of voice actor Frank Welker, who voiced Stripe in Gremlins (and Fred on Scooby-Doo before that), that Howie Mandel be hired for the role. Phoebe Cates was a controversial casting choice.Given her sweet demeanor as Kate, it's hard to imagine that not everyone was on board with casting Cates. But her infamous topless scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High gave the studio pause about putting her in the lead. Kingston Falls and Hill Valley are one and the same.If the fictional town of Kingston Falls in Gremlins looks familiar, that's because it was filmed on the same set used for the town of Hill Valley in Back to the Future, which wasreleased a year later. At one point, Gizmo and Stripe were supposed to be the same creature.It was also at Spielberg's suggestion that Gizmo's role in the film grew. Originally, it's the cute little Mogwai pet himself who transforms into Stripe the Gremlin. But Spielberg knew that audiences would want to see as much of Gizmo as possible, so he withdrew the idea so that they would appear as totally separate characters. **TRIPLE LINDY AWARD** **REVIEW AND RATING**Trey 3Chris 1.5Stephen 2.5Tucker 2 TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 Saving Private Ryan3 Ghostbusters4 Sandlot5 Color out of space Chris:1. sandlots2.

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! This is the one where the Sire, the original vampire who is the ancestor to every other vampire, is neglected and escapes from his cell. I really enjoyed this one because I was a big fan of the added lore, as usual, especially since it remains inconclusive. And of course, the Baron is back! Delightful!Thank you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode.

Edgar Allan Poe's shaved muse. First Time you saw the movie? Plot: TOP 5The plot is loosely inspired by Jordan Belfort.If you don't remember, Jordan Belfort was the primary inspiration for The Wolf of Wall Street, and has been a standard for a few different films since. Giovanni Ribis plays a college dropout in this film.The director is a college graduate from the same school that Ribisi's character dropped out of, Queens College. In the scene outside Greg's house they couldn't move the car.They couldn't move the car because they didn't have the keys. Ben Affleck had been sitting in the car earlier listening to music, before the scene was shot, and had accidentally taken the keys with him when he left. The chips in Ribis's casino were made by American Standard Molding. This is the same company that makes a lot of sets for home games and casinos. A few of the actors have starred in other films together. Giovanni Ribisi has starred with Scott Caan in Gone In Sixty Second and with Vin Diesel in Saving Private Ryan. **TRIPLE LINDY AWARD** **REVIEW AND RATING**Trey 1Chris 4StephenTucker 1 TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 Saving Private Ryan3 Ghostbusters4 Sandlot5 Color out of space Chris:1. sandlots2.

Edgar Allan Poe's shaved muse. No awards, but garnered high praise when it came out. First Time you saw the movie? Plot:In AD 932, King Arthur and his squire, Patsy, travel Britain searching for men to join the Knights of the Round Table. Along the way, Arthur debates whether swallows could carry coconuts, passes through a town infected with the Black Death, recounts receiving Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake to two anarcho-syndicalist peasants, defeats the Black Knight and observes an impromptu witch trial. He recruits Sir Bedevere the Wise, Sir Lancelot the Brave, Sir Galahad the Pure, and Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-as-Sir-Lancelot, along with their squires and Robin's minstrels. Arthur leads the knights to Camelot, but, after a musical number, changes his mind, deeming it "a silly place". As they turn away, God appears and orders Arthur to find the Holy Grail. Arthur and his knights arrive at a castle occupied by French soldiers, who claim to have the Grail and taunt the Britons, driving them back with a barrage of barnyard animals. Bedevere concocts a plan to sneak in using a Trojan Rabbit, but no one hides inside it, and the Britons are forced to flee when it is flung back at them. Arthur decides the knights should go their separate ways to search for the Grail.A modern-day historian filming a documentary on the Arthurian legends is killed by an unknown knight on horseback, triggering a police investigation. Arthur and Bedevere are given directions by an old man and attempt to satisfy the strange requests of the dreaded Knights Who Say "Ni!" Sir Robin avoids a fight with a Three-Headed Knight by running away while the heads are arguing amongst themselves. Sir Galahad is led by a grail-shaped beacon to Castle Anthrax, which is occupied exclusively by young women, who wish to be punished for misleading him, but he is unwillingly "rescued" by Lancelot. Lancelot receives an arrow-shot note from Swamp Castle. Believing the note is from a lady being forced to marry against her will, he storms the castle and slaughters several members of the wedding party, only to discover the note is from an effeminate prince. Arthur and his knights regroup and are joined by three new knights, as well as Brother Maynard and his monk brethren. They meet Tim the Enchanter, who directs them to a cave where the location of the Grail is said to be written. The entrance to the cave is guarded by the Rabbit of Caerbannog. Underestimating it, the knights attack, but the Rabbit easily kills Bors, Gawain and Ector. Arthur uses the "Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch", provided by Brother Maynard, to destroy the creature. Inside the cave, they find an inscription from Joseph of Arimathea, directing them to Castle Aarrgh. An animated cave monster devours Brother Maynard, but Arthur and the knights escape after the animator unexpectedly suffers a fatal heart attack. The knights approach the Bridge of Death, where the bridge-keeper demands they answer three questions in order to pass or else be cast into the Gorge of Eternal Peril. Lancelot easily answers simple questions and crosses. Robin is defeated by an unexpectedly difficult question, and Galahad fails an easy one; both are magically flung into the gorge. When Arthur asks for clarification on an obscure question about swallows, the bridge-keeper cannot answer and is himself thrown into the gorge. Arthur and Bedevere cannot find Lancelot, unaware that he has been arrested by police investigating the historian's death. The pair reach Castle Aarrgh, but find it occupied by the French soldiers. After being repelled by showers of manure, they summon an army of knights and prepare to assault the castle. As the army charges, the police arrive, arrest Arthur and Bedevere for the murder of the historian and break the camera, ending the film. TOP 51: Done on an incredibly small budget, the Pythons found funding from an unlikely sources—rock bands. Groups like Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, and Pink Floyd helped get the money up for the production, with a portion of the funds coming from the Floyd's album “The Dark Side of the Moon.” This is a trend that would continue later with The Life of Brian, when a large portion of the funding came from former Beatle George Harrison. When Harrison was asked why he funded the film, he responded “Because I wanted to see it.” 2: The film also represents the directorial debuts of both Terry Jones and Terry Gilliam, who decided that anyone named Terry got to direct the Pythons' first film. Attempting to co-direct at the same time led to conflicts, so the Terrys split up the responsibilities with Jones handling the actors while Gilliam worked on the cinematography. They'd go on to direct the remaining Python films together and Jones would additionally direct Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, while Gilliam's lengthy directorial career would include such artistic classics as The Fisher King, Brazil, Time Bandits, Twelve Monkeys, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, and more. 3: The vicious Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog had parts of its fur dyed red to represent the blood of the knights that it spilt with its large, pointy teeth. Unfortunately, the dye used wouldn't wash out afterwards and the rabbit's owner was furious. 4: By the time the Pythons actually got around to doing the credits, they'd run out of money. As a result, the credits were very simple and Palin decided to spice them up a bit by adding the Swedish subtitles and llama references. When the film was shown for the first time at Cannes, firemen rushed in at the end of the credits to evacuate the audience due to a bomb scare. The crowd didn't leave at first because they thought it was part of the show. 5: n part due to the low budget, Chapman and Cleese did all their own stunts for the Black Knight scene. The two used heavy swords and some acrobatics for added realism. Connie Booth had brought her and Cleese's young daughter to the filming, who during the fight turned to her mum and said “Daddy doesn't like that man, does he?” **TRIPLE LINDY AWARD** **REVIEW AND RATING**TreyChrisStephen 1.5Tucker 3 TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 Saving Private Ryan3 Ghostbusters4 Sandlot5 Color out of space Chris:1. sandlots2.

The film won five of these, including Best Cinematography, Best Sound, Best Sound Effects Editing, Best Film Editing, and Best Director for Spielberg, his second win in that category. After the film lost the Best Picture award to Shakespeare in Love, many film pundits criticized the Academy's decision not to award the film with the Best Picture Oscar and has continued to be considered as one of the biggest snubs in the ceremony's history. The film also won the Golden Globes for Best Motion Picture – Drama and Director, the BAFTA Award for Special Effects and Sound, the Directors Guild of America Award, a Grammy Award for Best Film Soundtrack, the Producers Guild of America Golden Laurel Award, and the Saturn Award for Best Action, Adventure, or Thriller Film. Saving Piivate Ryan comes in at #71 of AFI's First Time you saw the movie? Plot: An elderly veteran visits the Normandy Cemetery with his family. At a specific grave, he is overcome with emotion and begins to recall his time as a soldier. On the morning of June 6, 1944, the U.S. Army lands at Omaha Beach as part of the Normandy invasion. Captain John H. Miller leads his command, Company C, 2nd Ranger Battalion in a breakout from the beach. The staff at the United States Department of War learns that James Francis Ryan of the 101st Airborne Division is missing and presumed to be the last survivor of four brothers who are all in the military. General George C. Marshall orders Ryan to be found and sent home so that his family will not lose all its sons. Miller is ordered to lead a detachment in finding Ryan. As they arrive in the contested town of Neuville between German defenders and the 101st Airborne, Caparzo is killed by a German sniper. Miller and his men find a paratrooper named Ryan but he is not the one for whom they are searching, and they are directed to a rally point where James Francis Ryan's unit should be. Miller learns that Ryan is defending a key bridge in the town of Ramelle. En route, Miller decides against the judgment of his soldiers to neutralize a German machine gun nest, which results in Wade's death. A surviving German soldier is spared by the intervention of Upham, the detachment's interpreter, who is unused to the horrors of combat. Miller blindfolds the soldier, who has been nicknamed "Steamboat Willie", and orders him to surrender to the next Allied patrol. When Reiben threatens to desert, Miller defuses the situation by calmly telling a story that reveals his civilian background as a teacher and baseball coach, of which he has not previously spoken, and which has been the subject of much speculation among his men and a pool of about $300. Upon arriving in Ramelle, Miller's detachment makes contact with Ryan and informs him of his brothers' deaths. Though deeply upset, Ryan refuses to abandon his post defending the town's bridge, and the town soon comes under siege by attacking Germans. Miller assumes command as the only officer present. He and his unit fight alongside the 101st, but the German armor advantage takes a toll on the Americans. Jackson, Mellish and Horvath are killed along with most of the paratroopers as the Americans retreat across the town's bridge. During the final assault on the bridge, Steamboat Willie reappears and shoots Miller as he attempts to blow the bridge with pre-placed explosives, but before the German force can capture it American P-51 Mustang fighter planes and Sherman tanks arrive and halt their advance. Upham confronts Steamboat Willie, who attempts to talk Upham into letting him go again; Upham instead shoots and kills him. The mortally wounded Miller tells Ryan to "earn this" before dying, referring to the sacrifices others have made so that Ryan can have a postwar life. Returning to the present, Ryan is revealed to be the elderly veteran and the grave to be Miller's. Ryan expresses gratitude for the sacrifices made by Miller and his men, says he hopes he "earned it", and salutes the grave. TOP 51: The plot was loosely inspired by the true story of the Niland brothersScreenwriter Robert Rodat was initially inspired to write Saving Private Ryan when he saw a monument to the four sons of Agnes Allison, who were all killed in the American Civil War. However, when the premise got into the hands of producer Mark Gordon and eventually director Steven Spielberg, inspiration came from the true story of the Niland brothers. They were four brothers fighting in World War II.Two of them died and two survived. However, it was initially thought that only one of them survived, as the other one was missing and presumed dead. He turned out to be a prisoner of war in a Japanese internment camp. 2: Steven Spielberg would've released the movie with an NC-17 ratingWhile he was making Saving Private Ryan, Steven Spielberg feared that the movie's brutal violence would lead the MPAA to assign it an NC-17 rating. Big Hollywood studios usually strive to avoid NC-17 ratings like the Bubonic Plague, and make whatever cuts are necessary to change the rating, because they're box office poison. Some theaters won't show them and the ones that will show them can only admit audience members over a certain age. But Spielberg was so happy with Saving Private Ryan that if it had come back from the MPAA with an NC-17 rating, he still would've released it. 3: The gunfire sound effects are authenticTo acquire the right sound effects for the guns used in the movie, Saving Private Ryan's sound team went to a live machine gun firing range near Atlanta that was owned by a weapons manufacturer. There, they sourced all of the period-specific weaponry that was being used in the movie, that they needed to find the sounds for, and they just started firing them at the shooting range. 4: Saving Private Ryan is the last non-digitally edited Best Film Editing winnerPretty much every movie in the last 20 years has been digitally edited because digital editing – while losing some of the soul of the filmmaking process – is a lot cheaper, easier, and more secure than the old “cutting room” method. Saving Private Ryan was the last movie to be edited using non-digital technology to win the Academy Award for Best Film Editing. Every subsequent winner of the Oscar for editing has been edited digitally. And digital isn't going away any time soon, so Saving Private Ryan will probably hold onto the distinction of last non-digitally edited Best Film Editing winner indefinitely. 5: The D-Day landings sequence cost $11 millionSaving Private Ryan's opening D-Day landings scene took up a hefty chunk of the film's $70 million budget, costing $11 million to pull off. Steven Spielberg decided chose not to storyboard the sequence at all, instead letting the action tell him where to point the camera (he elected to use a handheld camera for the scene) on the days of shooting. The producers recruited 40 barrels of fake blood and more than 1,000 extras for the scene. Between 20 and 30 of these extras were amputees who could be fitted with prosthetic limbs for the sole purpose of being blown off in explosions. **TRIPLE LINDY AWARD** - Dude on top of the tank at the end who didn't move, and got blown up.

Plot: After Columbia University parapsychology professors Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, and Egon Spengler experience their first encounter with a ghost at the New York Public Library, the university dean dismisses the credibility of their paranormal-focused research and fires them. The trio responds by establishing "Ghostbusters", a paranormal investigation and elimination service operating out of a disused firehouse. They develop high-tech nuclear-powered equipment to capture and contain ghosts, although business is initially slow. After a paranormal encounter in her apartment, cellist Dana Barrett calls the Ghostbusters. She recounts witnessing a demonic dog-like creature in her refrigerator utter a single word: "Zuul". Ray and Egon research Zuul and details of Dana's building while Peter inspects her apartment and unsuccessfully attempts to seduce her. The Ghostbusters are hired to remove a gluttonous ghost, Slimer, from the Sedgewick Hotel. Having failed to properly test their equipment, Egon warns the group that crossing the energy streams of their proton pack weapons could cause a catastrophic explosion. They capture the ghost and deposit it in an ecto-containment unit under the firehouse. Supernatural activity rapidly increases across the city and the Ghostbusters become famous; they hire a fourth member, Winston Zeddemore, to cope with the growing demand. Suspicious of the Ghostbusters, Environmental Protection Agency inspector Walter Peck asks to evaluate their equipment but Peter rebuffs him. Egon warns that the containment unit is nearing capacity and supernatural energy is surging across the city. Peter meets with Dana and informs her Zuul was a demigod worshipped as a servant to "Gozer the Gozerian", a shapeshifting god of destruction. Upon returning home, she is possessed by Zuul; a similar entity possesses her neighbor, Louis Tully. Peter arrives and finds the possessed Dana/Zuul claiming to be "the Gatekeeper". Louis is brought to Egon by police officers and claims he is "Vinz Clortho, the Keymaster". The Ghostbusters agree to keep the pair separated. Peck returns with law enforcement and city workers to have the Ghostbusters arrested and their containment unit deactivated, causing an explosion that releases the captured ghosts. Louis/Vinz escapes in the confusion and makes his way to the apartment building to join Dana/Zuul. In jail, Ray and Egon reveal Ivo Shandor, leader of a Gozer-worshipping cult, designed Dana's building to function as an antenna to attract and concentrate spiritual energy to summon Gozer and bring about the apocalypse. Faced with supernatural chaos across the city, the Ghostbusters convince the mayor to release them. The Ghostbusters travel to the apartment building roof as Dana/Zuul and Louis/Vinz open the gate between dimensions and transform into demonic dogs. Gozer appears as a woman and attacks the Ghostbusters then disappears when they attempt to retaliate. Her disembodied voice demands the Ghostbusters "choose the form of the destructor". Ray inadvertently recalls a beloved corporate mascot from his childhood, and Gozer reappears as a gigantic Stay Puft Marshmallow Man that begins destroying the city. Against his earlier advice, Egon instructs the team to cross their proton energy streams at the dimensional gate. The resulting explosion destroys Gozer's avatar, banishing it back to its dimension, and closes the gateway. The Ghostbusters rescue Dana and Louis from the wreckage and are welcomed on the street as heroes. TOP 5Before the Ghostbusters become established in New York City, they release a commercial to advertise their services. The three original members — Peter Venkman (Bill Murrey), Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd), and Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) — appear on television, with the number 555-2368. During the film's theatrical release in 1984, Ivan Reritman ran that very same commercial, which allowed people to call in. Callers would hear a pre-recorded message from Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd, who announced that they were unable to answer as they were busy busting ghosts! The number received 1,000 calls every hour, 24 hours a day, for several weeks! Sadly, the line is no longer operational, so if you're being troubled by strange noises in the middle of the night, or you're experiencing feelings of dread in your basement or attic, we don't know what to tell you!“Ghostbusters” is such an iconic title — so much so, that many fans still haven't noticed that, following the opening scene in the New York Public Library in the original 1984 film, the title that appears on the screen is actually two words and not one, reading “Ghost Busters”! Before the filmmakers settled on the now iconic title, Dan Aykroyd originally considered the title “Ghost Smashers”, while “Ghostbreakers” was also an option. The sign outside the Ghostbusters fire station in New York even had variations of these titles during production. “Ghostbusters” wasn't available because of Filmation's Ghostbusters (1975), an unrelated TV series (there's also a 1986 cartoon). In the end, Columbia Pictures obtained the rights, while The Real Ghostbusters (1986 — 1991) was so named to distinguish it from the Filmation version.Despite becoming one of the most iconic characters in the entire Ghostbusters franchise, Slimer is never actually name-dropped in either of the two movies, Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II (1989). However, he was referred to as “Onionhead” by the crew of the original film. The “ugly little spud” wasn't actually named “Slimer” until the animated show, The Real Ghostbusters, in which he's part of the team. It's this that inspired his more friendly cameo in Ghostbusters II, in which he offers Louis Tully (Rick Moranis) a ride in a town car. Slimer isn't the only ghost in the original movie who isn't referred to by the name we now know him by Gozer's two minions, Vinz Clortho/the keymaster and Zuul/the gatekeeper are never referred to as "terror dogs", despite the hellhounds now being synonymous with the name.As well as being called “Onionhead” by the crew members of the original 1984 film, Slimer also went by another name — “The Ghost of John Belushi”, something Dan Aykroyd started. Aykroyd has since confirmed that Slimer was heavily inspired by the late John Belushi. For starters, the green spook's hankering for food was based on Belushi's cafeteria scene in National Lampoon's Animal House (1978). The role of Peter Venkman was originally written for the actor, however, he passed away while Aykroyd was working on the script in early 1984. While there are no direct references to the actor in the film, there are plenty throughout IDW's Ghostbusters comic book series, some of which even feature Belushi's character, “Joliet” Jake Blues, from The Blues Brothers (1980), which also stars Dan Aykroyd as Elwood Blues.Once the Ghostbusters cross the streams, the rift between the two dimensions causes the Marshmallow Man to explode, raining down marshmallow on the unsuspecting New Yorkers below. But getting that amount of actual marshmallows to dump on the film's extras was implausible. Instead, Edlund's team collected 500-gallon batches of shaving cream to substitute for the remnants of Mr. Stay-Puft. William Atherton, who played EPA villain Walter Peck, was skeptical about having such a large amount of heavy cream dropped on him, so they tested the idea on a stuntman using only 75 pounds, and it knocked him to the ground. The stuntman was okay, and another smaller batch was collected to dump on Atherton for the final take in the film. **TRIPLE LINDY AWARD** **REVIEW AND RATING**TreyChrisStephen .5Tucker .5 TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 T23 Ghostbuster4 Sandlot5 Color out of space Chris:1. sandlots2.

Wonder who recorded it and how old they were. "Superbeast" - Humphrey, Zombie, Charlie Clouser 3:40 3rd single, released June 3, 1999Sounds like all Zombie songs; heavy and abrassive. Very 90's/2000's sound. The video is hilarious. "Dragula" - Humphrey, Zombie 3:42 Lead Single from the Album, Released Aug 24, 1998Gerat song, catchy riff, I will always associate this song with The Matrix. The audio clip "superstition, fear and jealousy" heard at the beginning of the song is a sample of dialogue from the 1960 horror film The City of the Dead (also known as Horror Hotel), and is spoken by Christopher Lee "Living Dead Girl" - Humphrey, Zombie 3:21 Second Single released Feb 16, 1999I didn't realize I knew this song, never knew the name of it. Again, all sound similar. Heavy and gritty. "Perversion 99" - Humphrey, Zombie 1:43This is a different song, def not what I expected. Just an instramental break. Sounds like commercial music or elevator music. It sounds VERY much like some phone hold music. "Demonoid Phenomenon" - Humphrey, Zombie 4:11Again, very heavy, but still catchy. Good video; it's a lot of filmed concert footage, and tons of topless girls. though, they were blurred. So much kenetic, chaotic energy. I can imagine they put on a good live show. "Spookshow Baby" - Humphrey, Zombie 3:38This one isn't as chaotic and messy as the other tracks. It's a good calm down track after the previous one. "How to Make a Monster" - Humphrey, Zombie 1:38This has a totally different sound. It's not as industrial. Almost punk-ish. But back to the chaos and energy. Sounds like it was recorded live or in a tin can. Weird sound. "Meet the Creeper" - Humphrey, Zombie 3:13Back to the Zombie sound; heavy, industrial, dark. "The Ballad of Resurrection Joe and Rosa Whore" - Humphrey, Zombie 3:55I like the intro, build up. It's not as metal/heavy as the others. There it is. "What Lurks on Channel X?" - Humphrey, Zombie 2:29I mean... It's kinda more of the same. I know he's saying different words in each song, but they mostly sound the same. "Return of the Phantom Stranger" - Humphrey, Zombie 4:32Obviously Zombie is into classic horror, and the organ opening of this song pays to that. This is more bareable since it's not so chaotic; but still heavy and dark. This guy lives in spooky season all year round, it seems. "The Beginning of the End" Humphrey, Zombie 1:52This seems to be just noise. No lyrics or anything. Interesting closer. **TRIPLE LINDY AWARD** **REVIEW AND RATING** Chris 1.5Stephen 3Trey TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 T23 Sandlot4 Color out of space5 Mail order brides Chris:1. sandlots2.

Teepee giver to the great Cornholio. THIS DON'T HAVE ANY AWARDS. I'VE TRIED TO WATCH IT. MY RATING SCORE 5/5 BEERS. First Time you saw the movie? Plot:In the late 19th century, the demonic troll Trantor transforms children into wooden dolls to feast upon their energy in Briarville, Missouri. The townsfolk capture him and seal him under an oak tree, with Phineas Worrell, one of the village elders and an ancestor of Ernest P. Worrell, establishing the seal. Trantor vengefully places a curse on the Worrell family, stating that he can only be released on the night before Halloween by a Worrell. As part of the curse, every generation of Worrells will get "dumber and dumber and dumber", until the dumbest member of the family is foolish enough to release him from his earthly prison. One hundred years later, Ernest, a sanitation worker, helps a few of his middle school friends, Kenny Binder, Elizabeth and Joey, construct a treehouse in the same tree that unknowingly contains the dormant creature, after the mayor's sons demolished their own cardboard haunted house. When Old Lady Hackmore discovers this, she angrily leaves. Following her, Ernest learns the story of Trantor and idiotically reports it to the kids. Inadvertently, Ernest releases the troll. Joey is walking home from the treehouse when he hears something rustling through the trees. Joey slowly walks and slips down in a muddy hole. Trantor grabs Joey's wrist and turns him into a wooden doll. Ernest finds Kenny's dad, Sheriff Cliff Binder, and explains the situation but Binder does not believe him. After none of the townsfolk will assist Ernest because of the upcoming Halloween party, he mounts a one-man (and one-dog) defense operation in preparation for Trantor's appearance. Meanwhile, Trantor captures a boy on a skateboard as his second victim. Tom and Bobby Tulip, hoping to exploit Ernest, sell him various fake troll traps, but one backfires on the mayor's sons and Ernest loses his job. Ernest, Kenny and Elizabeth return to Hackmore, where they learn that only "the heart of a child, and a mother's care" can defeat the troll. Later that night, Trantor claims Elizabeth as his third victim as he sneaks into her house while she is resting on her bed. While Kenny and his friend Gregg are walking, Trantor uses Elizabeth's voice to lure Kenny away, then takes Gregg as a fourth victim. Despite parents being upset at their missing children, Mayor Murdock and Sheriff Binder still proceed with a Halloween party at the school, believing the missing children will be there. Trantor appears there and takes the mayor's oldest son as his fifth and final wooden doll. In the ensuing fight between Trantor and Ernest, Trantor turns Ernest's dog Rimshot into a wooden doll before being repelled by soft-serve ice cream on Ernest's hands. Kenny realizes that "mother's care" refers to milk and rallies a troll-fighting team to destroy them. Back at the treehouse, Trantor successfully summons his army of trolls while Ernest unsuccessfully tries to stop them. The townspeople show up, only for the trolls to overwhelm and beat them up. Kenny and his friends arrive and begin destroying the trolls with milk. During the fight, Trantor escapes beneath the tree where he summons the powers of the underworld, making him invincible, especially to milk. Enraged, Kenny unsuccessfully tries to destroy Trantor, who also turns Kenny into a doll. With the other townsfolk now backing him up and telling him to douse Trantor in milk, Ernest realizes that milk weakened the troll children, while unconditional love ("the heart of a child") would weaken Trantor himself. He takes Trantor and dances with him while the mob watches, overloading him with love, and finally kisses his snot-ridden nose, causing Trantor to explode. With Trantor's destruction, Ernest is proclaimed a hero. All of the wooden dolls are restored, including those from the early 19th century, and life returns to normal. Sheriff Binder apologizes to his son for doubting him and Ernest. Ernest is happy that his dog is also back to normal. TOP 5The pizzas seen being thrown at the bullies who try to attack the kids' tree house are re-used props from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze (1991). Both movies had the same prop master, Doug White.The Chiodo Brothers are credited with special effects for this film, who also made Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). Look for trolls in the finale that resemble Klowns, as well as the same spinning death effect. The Chiodos actually didn't save any of the original Klown molds. Though they may have used some ears molds. John Cherry's troll designs just happened to look a lot like the Klowns. In the opening credits (specifically around the 00:01:16 mark), there is a quick flash of a random man. He is Robert Hill, Jr., one of the grips. His son was in the film as a child extra.In the original script for "Ernest Scared Stupid", the villain wasn't a troll, it was actually a haunted statue. The original script had a lot of the flavor of "Scared Stupid" though. But there were no trolls; there was one statue that came to life - it was some terrible person who came back from the dead. John Cherry and Coke Sams went to Disney with that script. They both felt that it was the best thing they've ever written and that they knew what Disney wanted. But, Disney read it and their exact response was, "What were you guys smoking when you wrote this?" They added, "We want a haunted tree house." So John and Coke dismembered anything they could salvage from the original "Scared Stupid" script and cranked it into the next one.Creature effects creator Charles Chiodo designed "Trantor" the troll using fourteen motors to operate various facial features. His teeth were fabricated from dental acrylic, his skin was "baked foam," and each eyebrow hair was inserted individually. The trolls were designed with two noses that dripped synthetic mucus, concocted from methyl cellulose, personal lubricant, and an unnamed "vegetable agent" that caused it to spoil quickly.

Aujourd'hui, amis des mots, on parle d'un mot étonnant : sire, cet ancien titre honorifique, synonyme de majesté. Il est issu du latin senior... Vous me direz "Senior, c'est un mot qui existe encore en français actuel !" On parle sans cesse des seniors, c'est vrai. Et vous allez voir qu'il a eu une riche hérédité, ce senior latin !

Teepee giver to the great Cornholio.Fantasporto 1990NomineeInternational Fantasy Film AwardBest FilmMichael HerzLloyd KaufmanTOP 5 Facts because this is a "toxic" dumpster fire there alot more facts then five this time The scene where the seeing eye dog gets shot received the most complaints by Troma up to that time.The fast food robber who has his arm ripped off actually only had one arm. In the scene one can see that his right arm is a prosthetic, as he never moves or uses this arm until Toxie rips it off.Patrick Kilpatrick who played Leroy (the face-painted criminal at the Mexican restaurant) quit the film after having to point a shotgun at a baby.A deleted scene, which is available on the DVD, shows Toxie throwing a Peanut Butter and Drano sandwich, smacking the face of Sara's next door neighbor. Playing Sara's next door neighbor is Mitch Cohen without his Toxic Avenger make-up.It took four hours to get Mitch Cohen into the Toxic Avenger costume. While wearing it, he could only eat through a straw.While shooting in Shinbone Alley, a homeless man stole a prop gun from one of the trailers and threatened the crew.The seeing eye dog that was shot had been trained to glide across the floor on command and its "guts" were spaghetti covered in gray paint.The spinning newspapers were simply newspapers placed on a spinning cheese rack.Web: https://theguysreview.simplecast.com/ EM: theguysreviewpod@gmail.com IG: @TheGuysReviewPod TW: @The_GuysReview - Twitter DM group FB: https://facebook.com/TheGuysReviewPod/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYKXJhq9LbQ2VfR4K33kT9Q Please, Subscribe, rate and review us wherever you get your podcasts from!!
