Happy birthday to irresistibly trashy glamour icon Mamie Van Doren (née Joan Lucille Olander, 6 February 1931)! The wanton platinum-haired and bullet bra’d bad girl of 1950s and 60s exploitation movies (whose filmography includes titles like Sex Kittens Go to College (1960), The Blonde from Buenos Aires (1961), The Navy vs The Night Monster (1966) and Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women (1968)) turns 93 today! Like her contemporary Jayne Mansfield, Van Doren was ostensibly groomed to “compete” with Marilyn Monroe, but her screen persona was markedly different. Her allure is hard to define. As a dramatic actress, Van Doren is merely competent. Unlike anarchic comedic creation Mansfield, she’s not particularly funny. And yet Van Doren is mesmerizing to watch. Her je ne sais quoi and brazen charisma scalds the screen. I’d argue Van Doren’s greatest performances are in The Girl in the Black Stockings (1957), Vice Raid (1959) and juvenile delinquent flick Girls Town (1959) (although I really need to revisit High School Confidential (1958) - not seen that one since I was a teenager!). The biggest mistake in Van Doren’s career: when John Waters approached her to portray Velma von Tussle in Hairspray (1988), she turned him down – and not very graciously, either (according to Waters, “she said that she deserved better than Divine.” To her credit, Van Doren admits she’s always regretted her decision. Fascinating as that casting would have been, I’m glad Velma went to Deborah Harry because she slays in it). Van Doren is also the authoress of scurrilous and lurid autobiographies My Naughty, Naughty Life (1964) and Playing the Field (1987). As anyone who follows Van Doren on social media knows, she’s still a gloriously unfiltered ultra vixen with no fucks left to give who routinely posts scantily clad peekaboo selfies (and gets in trouble with Meta’s prudish censors). A true “filth elder”! I treasure Mamie Van Doren as the Jayne Mansfield who lived to see old age.

Are there any new villians or characters that you are obsessed with?

Hmm, new villains... /: I've mostly been re watching stuff lately, but I do have a list of villains I don't really talk about but really want to!

Here it is! ^^ Bolded ones are the ones I'm REALLY REALLY into XD

Stuntman Mike, Death Proof

Look at him !! I could get lost in writing about a nasty creep like him. I want him to kiss me but I also wanna smack him; I dunno XD

Agent Eddie Zane, Man of the House

He's Bo-age Brian Van Volt (Literally the same year) and his character is a sneaky scoundrel who pretends to be the protagonists friend so he can get close to his daughter (And he calls her doll)- need I say more?? No, I don't think I do. Damnn.

Steve Abnesti, Spiderhead

Not gonna lie, I wanna write some really dark stuff for Steve.

Eleanor, Do Revenge

David Harris/Unknown, The Stepfather 2009

I love this movie so so much!! It always makes me want peanut butter toast, which is a little weird if you've seen the movie. David, though, oooffffff. He's so AWFUL. And he's got this shit under control, and his energy is so soulless, but ohhh boy, when he finally loses it?? I'm so obsessed. This is honestly one of my favourite movies and his character is played perfectly.

Suzie Marie Toller, wild things

MEAN GENIUS. MEAN GENIUS. MEAN GENIUS-

Rusty Nail, Joyride

LakePlacid3!Reba, Lake Placid

Gary Sitterson, Cabin in the Woods

I don't know, there's just something cute about him XD He's not full villain, but I'm very very intrigued.

Helene, Tony, and Becky Le Domas, Ready or Not

Chef Slowick, The Menu

He's so sad, I just wanna give him a cuddle and encourage him to cook at a soup kitchen. He's the kinda character where you just wanna be his favourite person- the only person not expendable to him (Including himself!!).

Chase McKinney, Now You See Me 2

Detective Wayne Bailey/Kirsch, Scream 6

Warwick, Graveyard Shift

Another one I could write some really dark stuff for... :D :D :D Sorry, haha XDD

Alexis Butler and Val, We Summon the Darkness

They're so crazy. I wanna be friends (Or more) with them so badly XD I just love any crazy women in horror movies- we need more crazy women in horror movies. I just love watching them to be gross and terrible, theirs something cathartic about it.

Pearl, X + Pearl

Pelle, Midsommar

Norman Bates, Psycho

Brenda Bates, Urban Legend

Another crazy lady. Rebecca Gayheart just did so amazing as Brenda, and she's so much fun, and just... yeah. I love funny Slashers.

Mulgarath, Spiderwick

Have you heard his voice? Its Nick Nolte.

... Count Olaf... Series of Unfortunate Events

Look, leave me be. He's just so GROSS. I love gross, irredeemable villains that you know the writers really just went 'I am going to make this character so unlikeable'. Truly top tier.

Capricorn, Cockerell and Flatnose, Inkheart

I always thought Cockerell especially was pretty XD Kinda Otis B Driftwood-Style.

Dag, Barnyard

I MEAN?? Ugh. I'm sorry. I know he's a coyote. But he's such a bastard and I love it. He's been a favourite of mine since I was a kid!

Lady Van Tassel and the Hessian, Sleepy Hollow

I know one person especially will be happy to see the Hessian on here- XD

Velma Von Tussle, Hairspray

She's so mean... Agh. Haha XD I wanna write that Wilbur scene in the joke shop with reader in his place XD

The Colonal, Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron

Verosika Mayday, Crimson and Paimon, Helluva Boss

Nathanial Demerest, Wishmaster

The Trapper, Dead By Daylight

T.G. McCabe, S.W.A.T 2003

Little greedy coward that he is... I so wanna write for him XD

Please, anyone, if you're interested in any of these guys please tell me about it!

[frauleinfunf]

hal and alice run a local dance broadcast therefore they really should write them like corny collins and velma von tussle

Dream Animated Movie Musical Tournament Round 3 Match 7

Hairspray

Why this deserves to be an animated movie musical: it deserves a remake not just because good story but because it's currently almost as far from the 2007 movie musical as that was from the original John Waters movie and animation would help set it apart plus just play into the atmosphere of the movie (as I've seen multiple reactors reacting to the 2007 Hairspray movie on YouTube call Tracy Turnblad a modern (sure 60s but relative to, like, medieval times and shit that's still modern) Disney Princess and it fits)

Notes/dream-casting: Tracy would probably end up being an unknown I just don't want her to do what some previous ones have had happen to them and barely have a career afterwards, as for some other roles my little self-indulgent crushing heart can't help but see Skylar Astin as Link (and a movie like this esp. an animated one is something he could do in addition to the more seasons we want SHMT to be picked up for without much schedule shifting #savesohelpmetodd) and I feel like Ariana Grande would make a much better Amber Von Tussle than she did a Penny in the live version (and maybe it's just the Gleek in me but Jane Lynch as Velma anyone esp. when it's animated so her looks/age wouldn't matter). I just don't know what to do about Edna in animation, what gender do you cast or do you just keep the tribute up in a different way by casting an actual drag queen to voice-act the part. Also does anyone have any ideas for the other roles that aren't from Glee, I don't want to make this one big reunion-cast

Tuck Everlasting

Why this deserves to be an animated movie musical: beautiful story, the nostalgia cycle's gotten to the point where it could be relevant, maybe this could even lead to a revival on Broadway and commenters on previous posts of matches where it's competed have all sorts of beautiful ideas

Notes/dream-casting: For style I think a lot of people who've voted in this tournament have really cool ideas for how things could look and for casting my mind has no freaking idea once I remember some of the characters' ages as I don't really know what ages one can still be believable voicing a kid while an adult even though that's a common thing in cartoons
