I made a video about the largely forgotten Graham Chapman movie Yellowbeard. Written by Graham Chapman, Peter Cook and Bernard McKenner. Staring: Graham Chapman, Peter Cook, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Cheech & Chong, Marty Feldman, Kenneth Mars, Spike Milligan and more. But is it any good? (SPOILERS: It's better than most people tell you it is)

Bambi (1942) dir. David Hand, James Algar, Samuel Armstrong, Graham Heid, Bill Roberts, Paul Satterfield, Norman Wright. 7.4/10
I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this movie.
Everyone's cute. I love animated animals. The skunk's reaction to being called Flower is sooo adorable. Him falling in love is also adorable. I do like the painted look of the forest and meadow. Bambi's kids are adorable.
No one told me that Bambi was a prince. Bambi's mom got wifed up by a baddie.
Imagine love being this easy. I feel like Bambi walked so that the Lion King could run.
Why do we always orphan the animal protag? My god, this is one of those movies where I'm either feeling great or terrible.

'For three decades Searchlight Pictures has consistently stood firm as an awards season and box-office powerhouse, punching through with titles including The Full Monty, Black Swan, Slumdog Millionaire, Twelve Years A Slave, The Shape Of Water, Nomadland and The Banshees Of Inisherin. Initially established in 1994 as Fox Searchlight Pictures, a specialty production and distribution division of 20th Century Fox, the company has stayed true to its path of supporting independent, often edgy, filmmaking voices that can also find favour with audiences, as exemplified by the trio of hot titles in play this awards season: Poor Things, All Of Us Strangers and Rye Lane.
What is less known is the pivotal role that its lean UK operation has played in driving the creation of these and other titles on the Searchlight slate. “I think some people still don’t realise we’re here, and how bespoke we are,” says Katie Goodson-Thomas, executive vice president, head of film production and development and the founding member of Searchlight’s UK team. “There’s an assumption that everything is somehow just coming out of the US.”
Smooth operation
The UK office has been running since 2013, with UK projects previously overseen from Los Angeles. “The Full Monty was the film that made them realise the UK could be a foothold,” reflects Goodson-Thomas. The Bafta- and Oscar-winning 1997 comedy was backed by Film4 at development stage, but the UK funder opted out for production, with Searchlight fully financing at a $3m budget and later grossing more than $250m worldwide. Searchlight’s further notable UK forays included backing Bernardo Bertolucci’s Stealing Beauty, produced by Jeremy Thomas’s Recorded Picture Company, and Never Let Me Go. The company distributed Sexy Beast (2000), Bend It Like Beckham (2002), The Last King Of Scotland (2006) and Slumdog Millionaire (2008).
Goodson-Thomas, a former producer, initially joined to work across both Searchlight and private equity fund Ingenious Media, which had struck a co-financing deal in 2011, and was tasked with searching the UK for new investment projects. “For the first year, I didn’t even have an assistant,” she recalls. But Goodson-Thomas fought to get the UK noticed. After two years she was moved into the now shuttered 20th Century Fox Soho Square office, to work solely for Searchlight.
“Partly that was because I had been a British producer before, so I was more proactive than they were used to,” she says. “Suddenly we had a slate, and there were loads of films about to go. Also, the industry here over the past decade has continued to get stronger and stronger, and they could see there was commercial potential.”...
The London office’s production and development squad now totals a small but mighty four, headed up by Goodson-Thomas, who along with her US counterpart DanTram Nguyen has joint oversight of film development and production on both sides of the Atlantic; they report into Searchlight’s US-based co-presidents Matthew Greenfield and David Greenbaum. “We both run everything, and we have each other, but I tend to oversee the UK [and European] productions in a more hands-on way, and she tends to oversee the US ones,” she says.
In the UK, Goodson-Thomas works alongside Pete Spencer, director of development and production, who came to Searchlight in 2017 from Big Talk Pictures and oversees the day-to-day running of the London office. They are supported by two assistants, Florence Darlington and Tara Williams, who are across development and talent outreach.
Rounding out the team are legal and business affairs and marketing and distribution, bringing the total Searchlight UK workforce to around 15, most of whom are based in Disney’s corporate HQ in Hammersmith, west London. The production and development team, however, stayed behind in Soho, moving into a comfy fifth-floor base in London’s media heart, after Fox’s Soho Square office was closed in the wake of the Disney acquisition...
Being embedded in the UK industry allows Goodson-Thomas and her team to keep close ties with the public funders, BBC Film, Film4 and the BFI, and UK-based producers, tracking projects and talent and looking for the right opportunities for Searchlight to come on board at the development stage, as a co-producer and/or as a financier and executive producer. Film4 in particular is a regular partner — Poor Things was co-financed with Film4 and All Of Us Strangers was developed by Film4 and financed by Searchlight — but it also works with the BFI and BBC Film, as it did on Rye Lane, which the three partners co-financed.
They also have longstanding ties with some of the UK’s leading independent producers. Goodson-Thomas started her career at Graham Broadbent and Damian Jones’ Dragon Pictures, collaborating with the producers again on All Of Us Strangers and Rye Lane through Broadbent’s Blueprint Pictures and Jones’ DJ Films respectively...
All Of Us Strangers is nominated for six Baftas, including outstanding British film of the year and best director. At time of writing it had passed $3.5m (£2.8m) at the UK-Ireland box office after 10 days on release. The Searchlight team had been tracking the project for some years, with Film4 developing an adaptation of Taichi Yamada’s 1987 novel Strangers with Goodson-Thomas’s former employer Broadbent and Blueprint. When Andrew Haigh boarded as director, it became a no-brainer for Searchlight.
“Andrew is the perfect example of the type of filmmaker we want to work with, but it had to be the right project,” she says. “We like to bring those auteur voices to a wider audience.”...'

Will Graham in Hannibal NBC, is Brian Fullers desire to write Clarice without saying her name. All of her plot and connections to Hannibal Brian Fuller gave to Will, with a few exceptions where her quotes are given sparingly to Alana Bloom and Chiyo. Clarice is a spread thinly through the series as finely as melted butter in rye bread.

Genshin Inspired Recipes #8 Raiden Shogun: Sugar Pie
Hello, every birdie. Today we are going to make a recipe that I have made a bunch of times, but each time it is so different. Because I can experiment with the crust and have the inside taste good. But before we talk about the recipe, we have to talk about the character that inspired it. The Electro Archon (which is a god in the game) Raiden Shogun (rye-den sho-gun).
The Raiden Shogun goes by multiple different names. Some of her other names that she goes by are Makito, Ei, and others. To avoid spoilers for those who want to play this game, that is all I am going to say about it here.
Ei was one of the most accessible characters in this challenge for a funny reason. She says that her favorite food is any type of dessert because she can replace her teeth. This is funny because she is thousands of years old. Makes you wonder, how many times she and other Archons have replaced their teeth.
Okay, now that you understand the character, let’s make the Sugar Pie.
The crust for this pie was very very different. We were given these Bon-bon-like cookies. And they were good by themselves, but they were extremely messy. So my parents asked me if I could find a way to use them in a recipe.
I thought about it and came up with this sugar pie recipe. I basically used the principles of a graham cracker crust for this pie crust.
I crushed the cookies and melted a little bit of butter so that they could form in the pan.
For the pie itself you are going to need:
Milk
Sugar
Cornstarch
Vanilla
Salt
Butter
Cinnamon
The recipe and the measurements will be in the description down below. Feel free to check it out.
Preheat your oven to 400F. Put together your pie crust, whatever type you prefer. Bake it for about 10 minutes or until the cookies are not crumbly anymore. Don’t panic if it still looks mushy because of the butter. It will harden as you get it out. Don’t be like me and think you need to leave it in for a little bit longer. It will be hard to get out of the pan. And in the future, you will get a huge workout.
After your pie crust is out and cooling you can start on the filling.
Before putting a saucepan on the heat you are going to add your milk, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and salt, and you are going to whisk to combine. Until the cornstarch is dissolved. Trust me, you don’t want to heat this part up unless you want caramel.
Once it is all combined you are going to move to your saucepan and cook over medium to low heat for about 10 minutes, or until the mixture starts to bubble and thickens.
You want to whisk continuously throughout this process so that you don’t burn your filling. Nobody likes burnt vanilla pudding.
Add the butter to the filling until it has melted and allow the mixture to boil for another 1 minute or 2.
Add the filling to the pie crust.
Reduce your oven temp to 350F.
Place the baking sheet that has the pie pan in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the edge of the pie is gently bubbling.
Once it is done in the oven, carefully let it cool on a wire rack for about 1 hour. Then refrigerate it and let it completely cool.
There are so many ways that you make doctor this recipe and make it your own. Me, I knew that the crust was going to be sweet so I made sure to try and balance the sweetness. And I think it turned out really well.
Thankfully my baking audience is very understanding of me. They know that I want their honest opinions. And they will tell me if something is not good. They told me that this pie was really good and well-balanced. Not too sweet and not too bitter.
I hope that you like this recipe. Feel free to check it out for yourselves. See you in the next recipe.

Omen III: The Final Conflict (1981) dir. Graham Baker. 7.2/10
I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. i wouldn't rewatch this movie.
Omg i didn't even realize this was Sam Neill from Jurassic Park.
It would be freaking crazy for an ambassador to kill themselves like that.
All throughout Damien's monologue about Christ, I'm like, what is the point of the anti-Christ? Also, it's so rude to just call him the anti-christ?
Here we go again, trying to make cute dogs seem scary. Aww, this fox. Takes me back to Auntie Mame.
How was the disciples of the watch formed? and how did Damien gather them? So, why was Damien naked on the floor like that? I don't understand how we got Barbara to do that. If we can control people, why don't we just take over the world like that? What kinda lack of free will.
I still think we killed him too easily.

On June 28th 1685 Richard Rumbold, an English Cromwellian soldier was executed in Edinburgh.
Rumbold was accused in 1683 of being the main instigator of a plot to kill King Charles II and his brother James, Duke of York, in an attempt to assassinate the royal couple as they passed by Rye House, on their return from Newmarket Races, it became known as The Rye House Plot.
Historians still debate each other on the actual plot but most agree Rumbold was a minor character in a very widespread plot, involving many leading Republican members of the British aristocracy. In fact, some historians believe the plot was fabricated by King Charles in order to execute his opponents in the Whig party, which he did, and although some were no doubt guilty of conspiring, several innocent men were put to death. This was mainly part of English history, hence few of us here will know a great deal about it, so I will get to the Scottish part.
When the conspiracy was discovered Rumbold fled initially to Holland, home of many exiled opponents of the Stuarts. In 1685, after the death of Charles a further plot was hatched among the émigrés to dislodge King James VII/II, his Catholic successor, from the throne. This was to take the form of a two-pronged attack on the British Isles: the first on Scotland under the leadership of Archibald Campbell, 9th Earl of Argyll (who shall crop up again in a post in couple of days) and the second on the west of England under The Duke of Monmouth.
Rumbold accompanied Argyll to Scotland, and was made a colonel in the small army. But the whole enterprise, badly mismanaged, fell apart. Argyll and Rumbold were both captured. Rumbold was executed in either the June 26th or 28th, there are differing accounts.
The following is an account of his execution…..
In a cart, bareheaded, and heavily manacled,he was conveyed from the Water Gate to the Castle, escorted by Graham’s City Guard, with drums beating, and on the 28th of June he was hanged, drawn, and quartered, at the Cross, where his heart was torn from his breast, an exhibited, dripping and reeking, by the executioner, on the point of a plug-bayonet, while he exclaimed, “Behold the heart of Richard Rumbold, a bloody English traitor and murderer!”
Afterwards his head, was placed on the West Port, then sent to London on the 4th of August, while his quarters were gibbeted in the four principal cities in Scotland.
I will follow this post with Argyll’s execution which happened two days later.
You can find the condemned mans last speech on the link below, although he didn’t finish it, complaining that the drum beats (were) “so disingenuous as to interrupt a dying man.”https://www.bartleby.com/268/3/15.html
