Louis Ferron (1942-2005)

Mijn volgende boek(je) is “De gehuurde hand”, een novelle die Louis Ferron schreef in 1994 t.g.v. het vijftigjarige jubileum van uitgeverij De Bezige Bij. Het is Ferrons ode aan de Franse film noir, aan acteurs als Jean Gabin en Alain Delon, maar bovenal aan de grootmeester van het genre, de regisseur Jean-Pierre Melville (foto: Louis Ferron in 1981 door Hans van…

Genuinely one of my favorite details in MASH is how every character manages to display their unique identity through clothes, despite the uniform. They've all got a couple personal garments of civilian clothing mixed in with their preferred ways of modifying their fatigues, and that's so cool.

Hawkeye wears his undershirt untucked and his overshirt unbuttoned, plus he removed his epaulettes (Trapper is more or less the same). Radar has his overshirt unbuttoned but still tucks in his undershirt, and he wears that iconic hat that's definitely not standard regulation. Henry has his fishing gear or college sweater, and only pulls out the proper uniform shirt and hat if big brass are coming to camp. Frank and Charles both button and tuck in their shirts, but Frank usually wears his hat while Charles does not. Potter buttons his shirt, but never tucks it in. Margaret starts out dressing pretty uniform standard, but by the later seasons she usually replaces her shirt with a sweater or sweatshirt of some kind. Klinger, of course, has a variety of iconic fits.

BJ is definitely the most dramatic example, and it feels very intentional that by the later seasons the only part of his uniform he wears are the pants. He's got his iconic pink henley, plus an army shirt he made into a vest or a pair of red suspenders. He never even wears combat boots, it's converse all the way for him! To top it all off, he's got overlong hair and a goofy mustache; that man is showing disrespect for army regulations in every aspect of his physical appearance. It's very similar to Klinger, in my opinion; except BJ skipped right past the veneer of trying to prove he's crazy to "this is what I want to wear and I won't let this fuckass institution police how I'll present myself"

There's just so much character in how all of them choose to express themselves, despite living in a situation intent on stripping them of their individual humanity! I could do individual character analysis for all of their outfits, even though they're supposedly wearing the same thing.

Still haven’t listened to that finale bc I got scared and now I think it would be a little funny if the mutuals saw me freaking out a week later. Also take some Glennry I’m doing for a trade that was supposed to be quick and easy but then it possessed my body

I'm starting to think that I've slept on the brilliance behind Oogie's design, and now that I think about it, his design is so simple yet effective.

For one, there's the aspect that he's supposed to be the boogeyman, which when you think about it, doesn't have a set in stone appearance.

Other aspects/forces do, for example Death: which is usually depicted as a skeleton under a cloak with a scythe. And that design can be played around with.

Going back to his design, sure there’s no set in stone appearance for a boogeyman, but there's just one trait that is quite common: the sack to put children into.

Another thing is that there's one boogeyman type creature called the Bugbear, which comes from the word "bugge" which means "a frightening thing". The word "bugge" basically makes up the word bug which is of course another word for insects.

And Oogie is this exact combination of the two.

Plus, bugs/insects are generally a thing that some people feel disgusted by. Heck some people have phobias of bugs/insects, arachnids and snakes.

So by combining the two, it not only creates a simple yet uneasy design, but it finally gives the boogeyman a a type of face.

In fact, I'd say that out of the other designs we've seen for a boogeyman in media, Oogie's is by far the most popular.

So when you think about it, Henry Selick and Tim Burton created not just another iconic character, but also a worthwhile recognizable face for a boogeyman/a personification of fear.

Props to them.

Bunch o' guilty children and they haven't even done anything yet?

[saints-who-never-existed]

Y'know what, another shout-out to Henry Fuckin' Collins is required.

Even after the Orren-related unpleasantness and even as he's preparing for such an incredibly dangerous task, he's still firm, authoritative, and confident in instructing those around him on what to do throughout.

I don't know, I just think that's very brave and sexy of him...
