[hotvintagepoll]

Alice Howell (Distilled Love, Cinderella Cinders, His Wooden Leg-acy)— Total chaos. Combines inherent dignity with absolutely no grasp of social customs or normality. Accidentally spreads mayhem wherever she goes. Slapstick hijinks out the wazoo. 10/10 no notes

Bernard Cribbins (Two Way Stretch, The Railway Children)—Though he eventually aged into a Dignified and Beloved Veteran, a Salt of the Earth Type If You'd Like,, unfortunately (for him, heehee) in his younger years Bernard Cribbins was a pure scrungle wastrel. Not hot enough to be any proper leads yet still sent from heaven as little guys with googly eyeballs, Cribbins deserves a slot in this competition.

This is round 1 of the contest. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. If you're confused on what a scrungle is, or any of the rules of the contest, click here.

Jegulus Batman au

So last week I wrote post about how Bruce and Harley are Regulus and Pandora variants and now I can't stop thinking about Jegulus Batman au

Regulus as Bruce Wayne, but more like Battinson!Bruce instead of comics!Bruce. In the day time he is Regulus Black, awkward rich orphan who looks like he wants to kill himself everytime he steps outside. By night time he becomes Batman, a mask vigilante, who fights criminals of Godric's Hollow, the most corrupt city in all of England. It's his way to repay for his parents' sin, part of Hollow's corruption. His only help is a family butler, Kreacher, who really wishes Regulus finished the med school instead of running around in bat suit

James as the Cat, a professional thief with a heart of gold whom Regulus keep failing to catch. He won't admit it but there were few times when he let James escape. Mostly because James often steal from people that deserve it but also because he loves the thrill of a chase. Overtime the two of them start working together on few cases and slowly fall in love

Pandora as Harley Quinn, once a young psychologist turn a henchwoman of Regulus's biggest villain, Tom Riddle, turn an anti-hero who help Regulus, James and their allies fight evil. Her biggest strength is psychoanalyzing her enemy and getting inside their heads. She and Reg went to med school together before he dropped out, years later while working together she conected the dots and realised that this grumpy bat and that grumpy boy from med school are the same person. Arguably Reg best friend

Lily as Poison Ivy, an ecoterrorist with a power to control plants and Pandora girlfriend. Regulus often lets her and Pandora escape as they most attack factories that pollute the environment

Sirius is both Dick, Jason and Kate. Regulus older brother that after a death of their parents abdicated from a role of a Black family heir and started a life for himself outside of Hollow. He came back to Hollow after seeing Batman on the news an immediately recognising his little brother. Was killed by Tom Riddle, but resurrected but whoever is Al Ghul in this au, I haven't decided yet. He return to Hollow as Red Hood, mad at Reg for "replacing" him and not killind Riddle. It took a while but eventually they startes working together again because at the end of the day they are family

Emmeline as Red Robin, Sirius "replacement", a smart girl that figured out Regulus secret identity and girlbossed her way into becoming his new sidekick (not my joke)

Remus as both Barbara and Renee, the only good cop in an all of Hollow. Later he ends up resigning from the force and starts working for Regulus but hacking into city cameras and becoming his eyes and ears

Mary as Spoiler, daughter of a minor villain name Cluemaster. He was a terrible father so Mary decided to help Batman take him down. Now a member of the batfamily, Emmeline's girlfriend and Regulus's biggest bully (affectionately)

Barty as the Riddler, arguably the smartest man in all of Hollow who loves creating chaos and asking people riddles. Luckly for Regulus Barty is also an attention whore that needs everyone to know that he is the smartest person in the room so he often leaves clues for Regulus to follow

Evan as Penguin, the biggest kingpin, started out as a son of a poor housemaid and climp his way into becoming the most powerful mobster in all of Hollow. For some reason Barty is the only person he really trust in this world (he has a massive crush on him)

Dorcas as Scarecrow, a scientist fascinated by fear and the only person in the world with enough brain power to keep up with both Pandora and Barty

Marlene as Firefly, purely because I think Marlene deserves a flamethrower

Peter as Two-face, Reg's best friend turn enemy with half of his face burned

And Narcissa and Alice as Green Arrow and Black Canary

Harry as Helena and Luna as Lucy

Also Xeno as Rick Flag because I love both of them so much <3

Buster Keaton Disregards Birthday to Finish Film

Buster Keaton spent his birthday working before the camera in the closing scenes of his fourth two-reel comedy, "Neighbors". Buster is serious in his occupation of making people laugh, and a long October day in California was coming to a close before the nimble comedian remembered that it was the occasion of his twenty-fifth anniversary, but he refused to doff his makeup and comedy clothes until the last scene was "shot".

That evening, however, Buster was the guest of honor at a birthday party given by his parents, Joseph and Myra Keaton, in their residence in the Hollywood picture colony. The elder Keatons and Buster made up the famous knockabout comedy team of the Three Keatons in vaudeville.

At Buster's birthday party the entire personnel of his studios, from Lou Anger, business manager for Joseph M. Schenck, down to the office boy, Luke McGluke, was present. Other guests were Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, the Metro stars, Viola Dana and Alice Lake; Shirley Mason, Miss Dana's sister; Lew Cody and Bernard Durning.

merry Christmas Bernard! ❤️

I hope you’re a lot less stressed than you were. I know you now have next Christmas to think about, but I hope to see you at the party tonight!

💜, alice

Merry Christmas, Alice!

I’ll see you at the party as soon as I figured out where Curtis has fallen asleep at.

Oh, but don’t forget to get some of Judy’s hot chocolate while you’re there! It usually goes fast, so get it while you can.

Yours, Bernard

There are all my drawings for “I Draw Disney” art marathon on VK.

It was my first time to participate in such event, and it proved to be quite fun, coming up with ideas for each assignment, following chosen main theme, and trying to not repeat sources and characters, so I had to turn on creativity to finish the challenge.

I have had a few unused ideas up my sleeve, so I may bring them to paper sometime too.

Passing the Polygraph - Books of Collections

It’s been quite a time that I’ve been obscurely dissatisfied with ordinary photographic monographs. I suppose I shouldn’t complain: I’ve written texts for dozens of them, usually as an introduction before the pictures, and usually found much to like in the pictures concerned. No doubt the good ones still keep coming; the great ones, too, and probably at the same very slow rate as ever. But I’m…

Henry Ford famously believed himself and other men like JP Morgan to be reincarnated Pharaohs. A reminder that no matter what you accumulate or achieve in life the only thing you do here that carries any weight whatsoever is the impact you make on others and let others make on you. If there is a metric by which we can measure the success of a life lived, I can’t think of a better one.

[catnippackets]

I want to watch more weirdcore movies, does anyone have any recommendations for me that are sort of in the same vein as:

Paperhouse (1988, dir. Bernard Rose)

Dave Made A Maze (2017, dir. Bill Watterson)

House (1977, dir. Nobuhiko Obayashi)

Vivarium (2019, dir. Lorcan Finnegan)

Alice (1988, dir. Jan Švankmajer)

We're All Going to the World's Fair (2012, dir. Jane Schoenbrun)

Suspiria (1977, dir. Dario Argento)

just sort of weird...maybe scary...kinda dreamy unsettling...you know how it is

Lackadaisy ocs!!

(This is mostly just word vomit.. So feel free to take a look at the characters and go on with your day without reading through my disorganized rambling)

I'm happy to present these funny felines to which I have been working on for a good while now... Their individual stories are still in the works as I am extremely indecisive and can't seem to settle on anything with them..😭That being said, I don't have proper intros for either of them, BUT I do have a couple updated designs here for you!

First of all, here is miss Alice O'Malley! Her character is a bit difficult, and because of that I have had a hard time designing her in a way that properly portrays her personality. That being said I will most likely adjust her design more in the future as she has already been through... A lot. Her design cat-wise is mostly based off of the Turkish Agora cat breed.

Now this is Mr. Arthur Bernard!! Although he didn't take as much time as Alice, that doesn't mean I like him any less! (Though.. I do believe there is still room for improvement with him as well)

Thank you!

[antigonick]

Hi!! Would you happen to have any recs for good retellings of Greek myths? A lot of books I've seen recommended are usually not up to the mark and I trust your taste!

In terms of contemporary fiction retellings, I don't have much to offer; the few I've picked up were always a let-down, and some older ones too (I goddamn hated Mary Renault's). I do have some favourites in poetry or in older books, but they're usually fairly transformative; and I like picking up different translations of the same ancient texts (especially with plays); they offer a new eye on the text every time, and it's usually a more interesting eye than what's huh... going on with the chain-making of Greek retellings going on these days. What I'm interested in is seeing the same story being spun differently again and again. Oh, okay, there are two that I'm excited to pick up though I haven't: Ali Smith's Girl Meets Boy and Chigozie Oboma's An Orchestra of Minorities; but I can't say anything on them yet. Anyway, a short list of options! Alice Oswald, Memorial Rainer Maria Rilke, Sonnets to Orpheus Anne Carson, Bakkhai (verging on adaptation translation) Anne Carson, Antigonick Anne Carson, Autobiography of Red Anne Carson and Rosanna Bruno, The Trojan Women Jean Anouilh, Antigone Jean Giraudoux, The Trojan War Won't Happen Jean Giraudoux, Electra Sarah Kane, Phaedra's Love Jean Racine, Phèdre Jean Paul Sartre, The Flies Bernard Shaw, Pygmalion Seamus Heaney, The Spirit Level C. S. Lewis, 'Till We Have Faces Christa Wolf, Cassandra Louise Glück, Meadowlands Louise Glück, Averno Gregory Orr, Orpheus and Eurydice: a Lyric Sequence

I hope you enjoy these!
