Tales from Physical Media: I own a copy of "Captive State" It came out a few years ago (2019), from the director of the first of the new "Planet of the Apes" movies, and that Marky Mark remake of "The Gambler". It had a fairly big name cast (the lead was Ashton Sanders fresh from "Moonlight", the ever wonderful John Goodman; the ever reliable Vera Farmiga; a pre-fame and very much pre-conviction, star on the rise Jonathan Majors, and smaller parts for Colson Baker and James Ransone, as well as Alan Ruck and Kevin Dunn) and was an interesting enough quirk and take on an alien invasion premise. And you can't get it on DVD. Like, now I understand (yeah, Jonathan Majors, yikes) but like even before that entire shitshow: you just couldn't. Bigger bombs and weirder flops/forgotten misfires were everywhere on DVD and found their audience. But here, this? Nope, not a peep, and now even harder. I had to import a copy from Italy. Just an odd little quirk.

Pierre Boulle (1912-1994)
Het is ook alweer dertig jaar geleden dat de Franse auteur Pierre Boulle (foto YouTube) is overleden. Zijn naam zegt u hoogstwaarschijnlijk niets, maar hij is wel de auteur van twee enorme blockbusters: “De brug over de rivier Kwai” en “De apenplaneet”… Continue reading Pierre Boulle (1912-1994)

𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐍𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐊𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐢𝐝𝐬 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
The Viscount and Viscountess Bridgerton had four children. It is a simple fact that everyone knows. Eldest son Edmund is the heir to the viscountcy, and a bit of a pompous bastard, although the heir’s birth was entirely legitimate. He married Miss Juliet Knight, the sister of the Baron Knight. Now there, reader, is a whiff of bastardy around the now Mrs. Bridgerton���s firstborn son, Mr. Edward Knight-Bridgerton. Meanwhile, second son Miles is a rake, for lack of a better term. Mr. M. Bridgerton is not known to be a reprobate, but he does break hearts and gets his own heart broken on multiple occasions. But like many a good rake, he eventually marries. This Bridgerton rake married, of all people, a baker named Grace Hill with no ties to the ton whatsoever. Eldest daughter and third child Charlotte is known for her friendly disposition and matchmaker tendencies. Although, Miss C. Bridgerton is not as adept a matchmaker as her cousin, Lady Caroline Findlay-Wyatt. Of course, reader, Miss C. Bridgerton has become Lady Crofton, with her marriage to Viscount Crofton, Rupert Townshend. Youngest daughter and child Mary is known for her contrary personality, although rumor has that the youngest of Viscount Bridgerton’s children is much less contrary in private. Miss M. Bridgerton made quite the scandalous match for marriage with private detective Mr. Arthur Townshend. Yes, Mr. Townshend is the cousin of Viscount Crofton, but Mr. Townshend is much more scandalous than Viscount Crofton has ever been.

Born in 1815, Edmund is named after his late paternal grandfather. His middle names are after his father and one of Anthony’s favorite uncle, Uncle George Rokesby. He also goes by a variety of nicknames, ranging from Ed to Eddie to Ned to Neddy to Mund. He generally prefers to stick to Edmund, at least with those outside the family. 
Edmund has always been described as Anthony’s miniature, at least in terms of physical appearance. They look exactly alike, from the facial structure to the hair to the eyes to the build. Edmund and his father have always looked alike. There’s subtle bits of Kate in Edmund’s appearance, but he overwhelmingly looks like Anthony.
Edmund’s godparents are Benedict and Edwina. 
Edmund is, perhaps, the most sensible of all the Bridgerton grandchildren. It’s often said that Edmund has never made a rash decision in his life. It’s not exactly true, as Edmund does occasionally make rash decisions. However, Edmund predominantly thinks through problems before acting.
Most of Edmund’s reckless actions often occur when Oliver Crane is around. There’s something about the other boy that just makes Edmund act impulsively. As they grow older, this effect lessens and it really peaks in their teenage years when they’re at school together. 
In addition, Edmund is very protective of his siblings and cousins. It doesn’t matter that they can take care of themselves. They’re his family and he’s going to protect them. After all, Edmund is in line to be the next viscount and that’s a role that expects him to be able to take care of people and be relied on by them. 
In the spring of 1843, Edmund met the Honorable Miss Juliet Knight, a supposed widow with a young son. At first, everyone in the Bridgerton family believes that Juliet is exactly who she says she is. Everyone expected Edmund to pick a completely respectable lady. And on the surface, Juliet is that… but underneath, she’s actually a whole lot of unrespectable as an unwed mother. Her late father had put into motion the plot to cover up the boy’s bastardy, but there was only so long that secrets could be held. However, Edmund proposed to Juliet and they were married in the fall of 1843. He was twenty-eight, Juliet was twenty-six, and Juliet’s son was seven. 
Shortly after their marriage, Edmund adopted Juliet’s son, Teddy. He knows that the Bridgerton name will provide a boost in respectability and well, a bastard son has much higher prospects than a bastard daughter. 
Edmund and Juliet have two children together, a son and a daughter. Their daughter, Clara Katharine Anne Bridgerton, was born in 1845. Their son, Andrew Edmund Anthony Bridgerton, was born in 1848. Andrew becomes the heir presumptive to the Bridgerton viscountcy as the firstborn biological son born to Edmund, as the Bridgerton heir. Thus, the birth order is Teddy, Clara, and Andrew. 
Modern ‘verse!Edmund is an environmental lawyer, just like his mother. He also joins the family law firm, Bridgerton, Rokesby, & Co. 
In the modern ‘verse, Edmund meets primary school teacher Juliet Knight when he’s asked to drop off and pick up his little cousins, Ant, Ben, and Colin, from school.

Born in 1817, Miles’s middle names are after his paternal uncle, Benedict, and his maternal aunt, Edwina.
Like his brother, Miles’s appearance is predominantly Bridgerton. He has chestnut brown hair and his facial structure is pretty close to the Bridgertons too. The biggest difference is that Miles has his mother’s eyes. He’s also the exact same height as his brother, Edmund, and his father.
Miles’s godparents are Colin and Daphne. 
Miles is the most dramatic of the Kanthony kids and he has a reputation as a somewhat wild child. He’s known for falling “in love” with women at the drop of a hat. It’s not a rakish attitude, which it easily could have been, as Miles never attempts to ruin any of the young women he crushes on and he only engages in scandalous behavior with widows. 
Miles is extremely close with his cousin, David Basset. They’re the same age and really bonded while at school together. Once they reached the age to attend social events, it was rare to see just one of them. They even gained the nickname “Miles and David” or “David and Miles” from family members. 
Miles falls in love with and marries a baker named Grace Hill. And for someone known for falling into romances quickly, Miles takes a surprisingly long time to realize that he’s fallen in love with Grace. And despite the scandal that arises because of the difference in social classes, Miles and Grace married in September of 1844. He was twenty-seven and she was twenty-five. 
After his marriage to Grace, Miles takes advantage of his math skills and works on keeping track of Grace’s bakery’s books and growing a nest egg of investments for retirement and for increasing the bakery’s acclaim. 
Miles and Grace have four children together, two sons and two daughters. Their first child, a son named Alfred Noah “Alfie” Bridgerton, is born in 1846. Two years later in 1848, Felix Anthony Bridgerton was born. Two years after Felix, in 1850, Lily Katharine Bridgerton was born. Five years after Lily, in 1855, Elizabeth Grace “Eliza” Bridgerton was born.  
In the modern ‘verse, Miles works as a computer scientist and software developer, putting his math skills to use. Like his Uncle Gregory, math comes very easily to Miles. 
In the modern ‘verse, Miles meets baker Grace Hill when she’s hired by his mother to provide desserts for a gala that Kate’s hosting.

Born in 1822, Charlotte’s middle name is in honor of her mother. In the modern ‘verse, her full name is Charlotte Kathani Bridgerton. She occasionally goes by Lottie, but never Charlie as that’s her cousin. 
Charlotte looks more like Kate than Anthony, but she also has the Bridgerton chestnut hair. Like her mother, Charlotte is on the taller side of average, standing at 5’7”. 
Charlotte’s godparents are Simon and Francesca.
Charlotte adores Anthony. As a toddler, she thought he hung the moon and stars. As she grows older, he becomes a blueprint for how men should treat her. In some ways, their relationship mirrors Anthony’s relationship with his own father. 
Charlotte is known for being incredibly stubborn. She rarely does anything that she doesn’t want to. She just managed to inherit both Kate’s and Anthony’s stubborn nature. Her stubbornness also led to the reputation of being a bit of a terror. She holds people outside the family to high standards, which has led to a lot of scrapes and trouble. 
Charlotte is very friendly and loves to make friends. In her debutante year, she managed to befriend almost all of her fellow debutantes. This continues throughout her years on the marriage mart and even, to a lesser extent, after. She also becomes a bit of a matchmaker thanks to this. She’s not as successful as her cousin, Caroline, but Charlotte can take credit for introducing her sister to her husband and for introducing her cousin, Thomas, to his wife. 
Charlotte spends six seasons on the marriage mart before she meets and marries her husband. Similarly to her Aunt Daphne, many of the eligible men of the ton consider Charlotte to be more of a friend than anything else. There were only three somewhat serious suitors, but she wasn’t interested in marrying any of them. One was a pompous ass and the other two, despite being good kissers, didn’t inspire Charlotte to marriage.
During the 1846 social season, Charlotte meets Rupert Townshend, the Viscount Crofton. The new Viscount Crofton, who is in his first season since discovering that he was the heir to a viscountcy. Charlotte was immediately fascinated by Rupert, the son of a schoolteacher and a seamstress. Despite Rupert’s scandalous origins and some other issues, he and Charlotte fell in love. They married in October of 1846, at the church near Aubrey Hall. She was twenty-four and he was twenty-seven. 
Charlotte and Rupert had two sons together. Their elder son, Lewis Anthony Rupert Townshend, was born in 1848. Their younger son, Albert Elias Joshua Townshend was born six years later, in 1854.
In the modern ‘verse, Charlotte works as an audiologist. She meets environmental engineer Rupert Townshend at a pub.

Born in 1830, Mary is named after both of her grandmothers. Her first name is after Grandmother Mary, while her middle name is after Grandmama Violet.
Mary is often described as her mother’s miniature. While all three of siblings lean a tad more towards the Bridgerton looks, Mary’s appearance is all Sheffield-Sharma. At 5’7½”, Mary is slightly taller than her big sister, Charlotte. 
Mary’s godparents are Gregory and Eloise, much to Hyacinth’s displeasure. 
Mary was very much an unexpected, and welcome, surprise. Due to the age gap between her and her three siblings, Mary isn’t very close to them until they’re older. She’s also a little spoiled by her older siblings too.
At the age of six, Mary spends three months begging Kate and Anthony for a puppy. She’d seen the miniatures of and heard the stories about Newton that she fell in love with the idea of a dog. So, for Mary’s seventh birthday, Kate and Anthony gave in. They got a corgi puppy, which Mary named Rosie. Mary adored that dog. 
Out of all her cousins, Mary is closest to Janet Stirling. They’re the same age and they’ve always gotten along. Mary and Janet are best friends. Mary’s other best friend is Lady Lilliana Steele. Lady Lilliana ends up in a relationship with Mary’s cousin, George St. Clair. Mary is not impressed and threatens George with bodily harm if he ever hurts Lilliana. 
Unlike her big sister, Mary struggles to make friends amongst the debutantes. She’s the introvert amongst the Kanthony kids, preferring to spend time with a small group of friends that she actually likes and finds their opinions interesting.
In 1851, Mary finds herself falling for her brother-in-law’s cousin, Arthur Townshend. He’s a private detective and Mary finds her getting involved in his investigation as it involves gaining information from members of the ton. She married Arthur in December 1851. She was twenty-one and he was twenty-five.  
Mary and Arthur had two daughters together. Their eldest daughter, Rose Katharine Townshend, was born in 1855. Eighteen months later in 1856, their daughter, Diana Marie Townshend, was born. 
In the modern ‘verse, Mary works as a lawyer, just like her parents and oldest brother. That’s how she gets to know private detective Arthur Townshend better. After all, Arthur is still her brother-in-law, Rupert’s cousin.

Road To The Kingdom - Prelude and Contagion Comics
This post will focus on two short comics that were published around the first reboot film, Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes.
The first is a prelude comic with a story that the writers (Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver) and director (Rupert Wyatt) always had in their minds for the film but had to be cut for time (they mention this in the DVD commentary and in interviews). Knowing how passionate they were about this piece of backstory for Caesar's origin, I'm very glad it was given life in this comic. It expands on the capture of Caesar's mother and her time in the GEN-SYS labs, scenes that are featured briefly in the opening of the film. 
Tumblr media
Director Wyatt and the writers have all said they thought it was important to show this backstory of Caesar's parents to demonstrate that, even prior to the drug that enhanced him as an unborn baby, his parents were above average apes. The comic shows a group of poachers following a troop of chimps, intent on capturing them to sell to laboratories for testing. Alpha, Caesar's father, is more intelligent than a regular chimpanzee, demonstrated in how he outsmarts the humans to keep his apes safe. He even lures them into a trap in order to kill several of them. 
Likewise Caesar's mother, Bright Eyes... who is named Bright Eyes in the comic for her rare blue eyes which doesn't make sense since she was named that in the lab for the changed eyes Will's drug gives her and also she doesn't even have blue eyes in the opening scene of the movie but that's just bad continuity, I guess... Anyway, Bright Eyes is shown to be exceedingly compassionate to her troop, ensuring no one gets left behind as they flee the poachers and fiercely defending Alpha. Though it is very brief, it is nice to see the united front of Alpha and Bright Eyes that make up Caesar. Human drugs may have given him true intelligence, but Caesar's determination, loyalty, and compassion all came from his parents.
Tumblr media
The rest of the comic arc shows Bright Eyes' time in the lab prior to giving birth. We see her intelligence grow to the point that she is able to escape from the lab on her own and return when she realizes she's far from her jungle home. There's a story of another lab ape named Burke who gets smart but decides to hide it, so he's retired to a sanctuary as a failed experiment and starts to plan his own escape. It's interesting to see the progression of the drug and its effect on the apes but the best part is getting to know Bright Eyes a bit better than her brief time in the film. 
Tumblr media
Shifting to Contagion, it is even shorter than the prelude comic as it was a one-shot set between Rise and Dawn. The focus of the comic is Ellie, the human in Dawn who is the love interest of Malcolm and the nurse who heals Cornelia. Her backstory is briefly mentioned in the movie but it is fleshed out here. We're shown the death of her daughter, Sarah, during the Simian Flu outbreak and her time with the CDC trying to find a vaccine. She ends up escaping the destruction of her lab with the help of a test chimp and the two go their separate ways (which makes me think an interesting story in this universe would be a human and an intelligent ape who actually successfully survive together but I guess that's what fanfics are for). Though very fast paced, that is the nature of a short one-shot comic. It does probably set the feeling of losing your daughter as the world falls apart around you, all happening in a very quick blur. Her time spent with the test apes and her rescue by the chimp Betty show her gentle nature that will have her seeking peace with Caesar's apes in the coming film. 
Though these comics are short compared to the longer arcs that will be featured later, I like these stories for their background on two female characters, Bright Eyes and Ellie. While the original films had Zira as a main lead character, the female characters in the reboot series definitely suffer from being primarily love interests to the lead characters and not having much to do in the films. So it is nice to let Ellie and Bright Eyes have comic book expansions of their characters. Both of these stories have been hard to find in the past, as the prelude was online promotion for Rise that seems to be gone from the Net and Contagion was a San Diego Comic Con 2014 exclusive. However, they can now be found in the Planet of the Apes comic omnibus entitled After The Fall.
