Akihiro Miwa’s Moro’s scene on the final film from the How Princess Mononoke Was Born (1998) document clip I shared yesterday. I saw in tags many of you had not heard this.
Akihiro Miwa (1935) is a famous singer and a drag queen, who also voiced Witch of The Waste. He also survived Nagasaki’s atomic bombing, being 10 years old when the bomb dropped.
I'm sorry but it will never not be baffling to me when new game with Woman Character comes out and the anti-woke bros all act like the developers made her super ugly as part if the secret woke conspiracy to destroy femininity and then you look at a picture of her and she just looks like Regular Hot Woman but like she doesn't look like a blow-up doll which I guess is where we draw the line
THE MARCHIONESS | CASTLEVANIA: NOCTURNE
The Lincoln Assassination is really just wild if you think about it for a moment. The younger brother of one of the most famous actors in the country- himself a famous actor and heartthrob in his own right- killed the President in a theatre and yelled “Sic semper tyrannis,” a line often associated with Brutus, a character that his brother had famously played.
Like, imagine if Liam Hemsworth killed the Prime Minister of Australia at a red carpet movie premiere or something and yelled “I went for the head,” and Chris had to leave the Avengers press tour to tell everyone, “I swear I had nothing to do with this.” Imagine how weird that would be.
#cant wait for liam to snap
Yeah, but it gets way weirder, y'all.
(Prepare yourselves because Lincoln lore is kinda my jam.)
John Wilkes Booth is the more (in)famous brother now, but back then his older brother, Edwin, was America’s (& Europe’s) darling.
They were from the famous Booth acting family, who were essentially the Barrymore’s of the mid-1800s. Classically trained, truly gifted kinda people.
The whole family, save John, was pro-Union. They were from Maryland FFS. There was no reason for John to be Confederate at all, but I digress.
John was known as a notorious scene stealer who pulled focus in everything he did, but audiences found him so charming that people kept hiring him anyway. He even starred in a few plays with his brother.
Edwin wasn’t just good at acting, though. He was good at life, too. Think Chris Evans levels of goodness.
Once, while standing at a train station, he saw a small child fall off the platform & on to the tracks. He immediately leapt into action! Risking his own life by jumping in front of an oncoming train, & heroically saved the little boy just in the nick of time, returning him to his hysterical mother to great applause.
That boy? ABRAHAM LINCOLN’S SON, ROBERT.
Yeah. That’s right. The brother of Lincoln’s assassin saved his son years before the crime took place. Small fucking world, right?? & He didn’t even know it was them until he received a letter of thanks a few months later.
Just a stand up fucking dude all the way around.
Now, in the aftermath of said crime, Edwin felt a great & terrible shame over his brother’s actions and actually retired from the stage & public life altogether, moving to London & becoming destitute in the process.
He felt their family no longer deserved the love & praise Americans had always poured over them when one of their own had betrayed the nation in such a terrible way.
Eventually though, a grief-striken people cried out for his return. Thousands of letters poured in from both here & abroad, begging the man to return to acting & bring joy back to us. Even Mrs. Lincoln wrote him & granted him and the family forgiveness. (Her own kin had been Confederates, to her great embarrassment, so she understood how he felt.)
After a few years, Edwin Booth did indeed return to the stage to great acclaim. He continued acting until a stroke a few years before his death in 1893 & even founded the Boone Theater in Manhattan, which was quite popular until it was destroyed by a fire.
He is still considered by many theater historians to be the greatest American Shakespearean actor of all time.
Edwin Booth. American actor. American hero.
fact checked this and it’s true but it’s So Much my brain just keeps rejecting it
don't vampire bites guarantee turning into a ghoul or vampire in hellsing? do true vampires sleep? so many questions I do NOT gaf about have some yuri babes!!!!!!!!
Putting these on the shelf above my bed so they can heckle me while I have sex
“Bend over? More like I wish it was over! ahahahaha”
“She wants you to pull her hair? I’ve been pulling my hair out this whole time! ahahahaha”
“Wow that guy’s really hard… Hard to watch! ahahaha”
"You're cuming? Well I'm going. Ahahhahaha"
"She's getting laid and I'm getting laid to rest... these two are boring me to death ahahahaha!!"
I would be pretty mad if I made a movie that, undoubtedly, was a global box office smash that had no lasting widespread cultural impact vis à vis Avatar by James Cameron. It’s honestly fascinating how a movie that made billions is completely unquotable, lacking in iconic moments or stimulus. If you make a lightsaber sound with your mouth, ppl will recognize it even if they haven’t necessarily seen Star Wars. You can say “I can do this all day.” there’s a decent chance ppl will know you’re quoting Chris Evan’s Captain America. You can hum the Jurassic Park theme song and ppl might him along with you (depending on how good you can hum). Avatar is the perfect storm of nothing recognizable besides the unique look of the Na’avi (is that how you spell it? I’m not looking it up.)
avengers 4
“Yea that bitch ass nigga Thanos sneaked me a couple times but imma see that nigga on the block tho…watch. Streets ain’t safe. Green light on that nigga…”
This the hulk & his new persona he created after he convince his momma to transfer him to a new school where nobody know Thanos folded him like origami.
So now he gotta show out and act up in the cafeteria even tho his knees trembling and his heart pumping that project kool aid double time
His soul drops to his booty hole cause he saw the chick he used to roast in 4th period Latin also transferred & she was front row when his shit got slid.
She make eye contact and he knows she knows that the boy Thanos slid his shit eight ways from Sunday but he’s come too far now with all the shit talkin with this new persona he tryin to impress on niggas so he nonchalants her and keeps up with the greasy talk till he hears,
“Hulk? Is that you?”
He turns, slow, guts doing the macarena. Feeling the strands of his new persona of a playbwoi nigga that stays fresh but also got them hands on deckington unraveling at an unprecedented rate.
But who is it that he sees? Someone…..vaguely…familiar….. oh it’s the chapped lipped, always ashy & never shaped up dude from ap geometry. Hulk was always ji cool with lil dude & in turn he helped him get that C and pass. But wasn’t slim absent the day Thanos was passing them paws out like a usher does the tithes & offering plate after a fire sermon?
Don’t matter now. Executive decision time. Reckless talk hour is over and it’s time to bring the ruckus. So Hulk does what any frontin ass nigga would do after he got ran out his hood by Lethal Hands Thanos….two piece the frailest, daintiest, linguini armed, bird chested ass nigga from AP geometry in order to re establish dominance and let niggas know he with the shits.
Now AP geometry slumped up and everybody sideeye staring at hulk like why you puttin paws on the disabled kid? The nigga got asthma and ashy knees n shit
News spreads fast. This is the cellphone/social media era after all. But see Hulk done forgot this cause to add insult to injury his momma confiscated his cracked up 5s for fighting when he was supposed to be learning + he messed up his last good school uniform.
It starts small.
Whole school knows before lunch. New persona’s armor getting all chinked up by everyone from people that slang opinions for attention to sjws to just the average niggaroes. But then it starts to ricochet, school to school. Block to block.
Ebony Maw:”Aye……aye foolio…..ain’t this your lil cousin Theodore getting mopped up?”
Thanos: “
“Oh you ain’t learn that lesson the first time my g?”
I feel like murderers would be more respected in society if they murdered large mutated mega ants and not people. Room for thought for future murderers.
You laugh, but that’s the plot of hunter x hunter
