The Force is with the Democrats while The Farce leads the Republicans.

Mark Hamil paid a visit to the White House.

The surprise appearance by the man who played Luke Skywalker thrilled Star Wars geeks among the White House press corps while leaving non-fans somewhat bemused or baffled. “How many of you had ‘Mark Hamill will lead the press briefing’ on your bingo card – hands?” the actor, wearing dark suit, blue tie and sunglasses, asked reporters at the start of a media briefing. “Yeah, me neither. I just got to meet the president and he gave me these aviator glasses.” [ ... ] Hamill, who has more than 5 million followers on X, where he is a trenchant critic of Biden’s election rival Donald Trump, said he was “honoured” to be invited to meet “the most legislatively successful president in my lifetime”, and reeled off a list of Biden’s accomplishments.

Here's a vid of his appearance in the press room.

This is the latest time he has shown his support for the good guys.

The voice of Luke Skywalker is featured on an app in Ukraine which warns people of Russian drone and missile attacks.

By implication. Putin is Palpatine and Trump is an orange Darth Vader.

[emmettspeakz]

Best Starkid Character in every musical (these cannot be argued, they’re my favs)

AVPM: Voldemort 

Even before my obsession with the amazing actor boy that is Joe Walker, watching the Quirrelmort scenes, especially Voldemort’s lines, would make me laugh non-stop to the point where I would have to pause the video to laugh for a good thirty seconds before continuing to watch. 

Me and My Dick: Joey Richter

This was a bit more difficult, as none of the characters really stood out to me. But I think just freaking Joey’s whole scene in the choir room got me good.  Dick and Sally are close seconds. 

AVPS: Lupin 

I freaking LOVED Brian Holden’s portrayal of Lupin in this one. I thought it was super creative and fun and also his dynamic with Snape had me cackling. I loved the emotional depth of Sirius too, so it was hard to pick between Lupin and Sirius, but Lupin’s constant thing about how he was actually best friends with James Potter and his insecurity when the students said he can’t sing was too funny not to love. 

AVPSY: Tom Riddle

Yeah, yeah another Joe Walker one, but I seriously loved Joe Walker playing a young Voldemort in this one more than him playing actual Voldemort because he just completely embodies the role and is legit the embodiment of sunshine as this character and dances so adorably and I think playing Tom Riddle brought out his inner cuteness. 

Trail to Oregon: Craphole

Probably in the minority here, but I CAN’T STAND this musical. I loved wagon on fire, I loved the acting but I just couldn’t get with the plot at all, it just wasn’t that interesting to me. That being said, I LOVED every single line that Craphole had and Mouthface was a pretty good contender as well for my favorite character, but just everything Craphole did was so chaotic and it killed me every single time. 

Ani: Obi Wan Kenobi by the wonderful NICK FUCKING LANG

The idea of Obi Wan as a drunk making fun of the prequels? CLASSIC. ICONIC, SHOWSTOPPING, WONDERFUL, AMAZING. Nick Lang, you need to act again buddy, I loved you so much in this role, even more than Mama Umbridge or Robin from Holy Musical B@man. He’s just always drunk and dealing with so much drama he doesn’t want to have to deal with and he’s just so fucking funny man oh my god.

Holy Musical B@man: Batman

Yeah, yeah obvious answer, but c’mon, at least for this one, this was really fucking hard. I LOVED Nick Lang as Robin and Brian Holden as Superman, but the iconic scream Joe does as Batman and also just the great lines he gets like “Batman loves the circus” and “you took my hopes and dreams and mugged and shot them in an alleyway” as well as the way Joe says “mama and papa” and the live version of the lyric “bruised and black” where his voice cracks never ceases to make me laugh when I listen to it. This is currently my favorite character that Joe Walker plays, so it had to also be my favorite character from Batman, I mean seriously there’s no contest.

Starship: TAZ 100%

Lauren Lopez is a fucking gem in this one, what else do I have to say? She never breaks character or her accent (as far as I can tell) and she plays such a badass character so fucking well oh my god. I wonder how long it took her to get in and out of character ‘cause it was just SO GOOD.

Twisted: Achmed

Achmed is a tiger fucker, need I say more? Okay yeah more Joe Walker but I can’t help that he plays fucking iconic roles okay? Just absolutely amazing. His line about bathing him with your tongue was hilarious. I’m still not over it. 

Firebringer: Ducker

Yes, another Joe Walker character. But hear me out: just him harassing Jemilla got me so much. The line “Jemilla...YOU DON’T HAVE THE GUTS” c’mon, tell me that wasn’t perfectly executed! And his reactions to the duck leaving him and losing his privilege and his “duck is lord” song was iconic, okay? Enough said. 

TGWDLM: Paul

Kind of a generic answer, but this was the first Starkid musical I saw, and I’ve always been a person to love the main-main character, especially one who was so sassy with his co-workers and so brutally honest with them, even though it was clear that they were almost used to the banter and didn’t unfriend him for it. I freaking loved the little scene Jon did here with Paul and Emma about to kiss and then he got blood on his face and ran away going “BYEEEEE”. The total awkwardness is GOLD. 

Black Friday: Ethan Greene

WE WERE ROBBED. I LOVED ETHAN GREENE AND HE DESERVED TO MAKE IT TO CALIFORNIA I’M FUCKING PISSED Y’ALL. Also the bad Ethan Greene scene was fucking scary AF but I loved seeing another side of Ethan in it. Plus Robert Manion is a god damn treasure, that’s all I have to say about that. 

[charlieism]

sup it's cameron from the discord how do you rank all the starkid musicals?

Oof tricky!

1) Starship bc im in love with Bug and the music slaps! The premise of it is so sweet, and some of the characters are a little 2D but the main ones are so relatable and fun. Also youve got tootsie and megagirls standout romance, and like denise said its a musical for dreamers, which i love. also the sets and the puppet characters are amazing are you kidding me?? Oh my god!!! THE PUPPETS!!!!!!! Its so special aaaaah god

2) TGWDLM bc i just think its rly high quality and all the components of it work rly well together! i enjoy it greatly, the plot is so fun and it balances jokes and emotions so well. The characters are all A++ and its a really enjoyable watch!! Ive seen it so many times and it never gets old

3) AVPM series because its just so iconic, and i cant pick a fav out of the 3. Theyre not the highest quality musicals but theyre So enjoyable to watch and have so many amazing treasured characters lol, and theyre funny as Fuck

4) Trail to oregon bc its a v fun, hilarious musical! I love the audience participation, i love the jokes, the characters r funny and the songs r all so nice i love to sing along to them

5) black friday bc its v high quality and i do love it but its not..my favourite? I feel like maybe i just haven't had long enough to obsess over it like i have the others. Points for the amazing lighting, camerawork n music tho, that stuff was all incredible. The acting was also amazing, and it was a lot darker and emotional than the other musicals, which i can appreciate even if i set a bit of a heavy vibe for me. The characters were all very individual and interesting too!

5) Spies Are Forever bc....well i just love it, we've got that lgbt rep and its quite unique! I love the character growth we see in all the characters and i likr the historical aspect of it. the villains are very good too ;) and like. The first time i listened i wasjt too sure abt the music but now i Love it. Also its probably only musical that made me cry. (ik it's tcb but im counting it)

6) Twisted. Another very high quality musical! I can appreciate how good it is, its not my personal fav otherwise itd rank higher but its very good in a lot of aspects. It's cool to see the 'villains' pov and its very funny

7) Firebringer. V quirky lil musical, the music is good but it doesnt rly stand out to me like it does in other musicals. Love the characters n plot tho! The costumes r also v good, and the set design, and the relationships between characters.

8) holy musical b@man. its never been my fav but batman and superman are very funny characters. the songs arent all my fav but i do quite like some of em! generally imo tho the characters arent quite as likeable as the other musicals, tho i do love batman and supermans rivalry to friendship

9) me and my dick. its a little weird and the plot is... Strange but joey and dick are funny, and joey and sally r quite cute. Its not great quality but i don't mind it and some of the songs r quite good!

10) Ani. I just....dont really remember anything from ani lmao i watched it a few months ago but it didnt rly stand out at all. I know it was quite funny tho, esp jar jar binks, moff tarkin and obi wan kenobi. Also joe walker ran in a crop top once so points for that hkdnfjf

Black Panther Teaser Trailer [source]

HERO.  LEGEND.  KING.  Watch Marvel Studio's Black Panther teaser trailer now.

Cast (via Wikipedia):

Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa / Black Panther: The king of the fictional African nation of Wakanda.  Producer Kevin Feige described the character as "a bit of a prince, he may even become a bit of a king, but it's all about how this isolationist country [of Wakanda] meets the world."  Screenwriter Joe Robert Cole added that after the events of Captain America: Civil War and the death of his father, "...we’ll be able to see [T'Challa] mourning and him starting to take command as king of his own nation."  Boseman, who called T'Challa an anti-hero, said that he is "very much aware of the responsibility" and "how important his role and his position is" as the leader of Wakanda.  He worked with the same dialect coach he had during Message from the King for the film.  Boseman signed a five-film contract with Marvel.

Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger:  A Wakandan exile who seeks to overthrow T'Challa.  Corey Calliet once again served as Jordan's trainer on the film, after doing so on Creed.

Lupita Nyong'o as Nakia:  T'Challa's love interest and member of the Dora Milaje, the all-female special forces of Wakanda who serve as T'Challa's bodyguards.

Danai Gurira as Okoye: The head of the Dora Milaje.  When looking to cast Gurira, director Ryan Coogler had not seen The Walking Dead, in which Gurira portrays the popular character Michonne, and instead wanted her for the part because of her performance in Mother of George.  Gurira said that the fighting skills she learned playing Michonne complemented the skills of Okoye, but that "there's a lot of ways that they're extremely different ... Okoye is a whole 'nother thing."

Martin Freeman as Everett K. Ross:  A member of the Joint Counter Terrorism Center.

Daniel Kaluuya as W'Kabi:  A confidant to T'Challa.

Angela Bassett as Ramonda: T'Challa's mother.  Calliet also served as Bassett's trainer, working with her before she began filming and while she was on set, and helped to craft her diet.  He created high-intensity interval training circuits for Bassett focused on her lower body, as they are "the fastest and the most effective way to burn fat", which consisted of mountain climbers, jump squats, lunges, push-ups and high knees, in intervals of 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off, up to an hour at a time.

Forest Whitaker as Zuri: An elder statesman in Wakanda.  Coogler noted that Zuri was a religious and spiritual figure, and was a way to reference the spirituality within Wakanda from the comics.  He also added that Zuri "is a major tie back" to T'Chaka for T'Challa, and felt Zuri was "Black Panther's version of Obi-Wan Kenobi."

Andy Serkis as Ulysses Klaue:  A black-market arms dealer, smuggler and gangster working out of South Africa, that uses a piece of advanced Wakandan mining equipment as an arm-cannon.

Additionally, Florence Kasumba and John Kani reprise their roles as Ayo and T'Chaka respectively from Captain America: Civil War. Winston Duke is cast as M'Baku / Man-Ape, the leader of a rival Wakandan tribe, while Sterling K. Brown is cast as N'Jobu, a figure from T'Challa's past, Isaach de Bankolé is cast as the elder of one of the largest tribes in Wakanda, and Letitia Wright is cast as Shuri, T'Challa's sister and the princess of Wakanda who designs new technology for the country.  Wright described her as "an innovative spirit and an innovative mind" who "wants to take Wakanda to a new place... [and] has a great fashion sense".  Wright also felt Shuri was "vibrant" and "refreshing", and was a good role model for young black girls.  Phylicia Rashad and Atandwa Kani have been cast in undisclosed roles

Black Panther is set to be released in the United States on February 16, 2018, in IMAX.

Cannon-fodder Joe : could you at least lift with two hands, I’m doing all the work here! Pointy-ears Lindir : Oh come on Monkeigh, he’s not at all that heavy.

Who’s doing all of the work?

A : Cannon-fodder Joe B : Pointy-ears Lindir C : The planet’s low gravity D : Obi-Wan Kenobi

by Paul Batters

It’s a real thrill to be acknowledged by a fellow blogger whose work you respect and enjoy. We rarely receive that acknowledgement and to be nominated by by Zoe K at Hollywood Genes is certainly thrilling! I cannot thank you enough for your kindness, Zoe!

As Zoe pointed out in her acceptance, it’s a great deal of fun to receive the award because the questions allow for introspection that we rarely give to ourselves.  So without further ado, let’s get into the conditions for the Sunshine Blogger Award.

The Rules

Thank the person who nominated you and provide a link to their blog.

Answer the eleven questions from the blogger who nominated you.

Nominate eleven bloggers.

Create eleven new questions for your nominees to answer.

Here are my answers to Zoe’s questions:

The Questions

1). Whose biography would you want to write and why would you pick that person?

James Murray. I became fascinated by his story when I read ‘Hollywood Babylon’ as a kid (which I know is heavy with inaccuracies) but was even more fascinated after finally watching ‘The Crowd’ which is one of my favourite films and an exceptional artwork. There are myths regarding James Murray’s life that need to be cleared up and indeed there’s a lot we don’t know either. There’s something tragic about his story and so many themes to examine that I think it would be challenging and very interesting to research and find out more about the man.

2). What is a film that people would be shocked to find out you haven’t seen?

I’ve avoided many of the Marvel and DC films, particularly the most recent ones. I’m so tired of ‘over-the-top’ CGI nonsense and noise. And for the record I was a huge Marvel comic fan from the 70s onwards (and still am!). But if I had a free ticket to go, I wouldn’t nor couldn’t be bothered to see any of those films. Not judging anyone who likes them – it’s just my taste.

3). Which favorite book of yours has never been made (or made properly) into a movie? If it were, who would you cast in the lead roles?

Definitely Budd Schulberg’s book ‘What Makes Sammy Run?’ – not because it’s a favourite per se as many books I love have been made into films but because it’s a powerful book and should be made. I know and understand the stories behind why it’s never been made as a film, as it is a terrifyingly cynical view of the film industry. In terms of casting, it’s very difficult which might also explain why it was never made. But I’ll take my best shot, using actors from the classic era.

Al Mannheim: Dana Andrews Sammy Glick: Frank Sinatra Cathy ‘Kit’ Sargent: Teresa Wright Sidney Fineman: James Gleason ‘Sheik’: Anthony Quinn Laurette Harrington: Martha Hyer Carter Judd: Jeffrey Hunter Rosalie Goldblaum: Cathy O’Donnell

4). Which blog post did you spend the most time researching and/or writing and what was it about? 

It would have to be ‘Fatalism And Futility In Film Noir’. It’s over 4,000 words and I really focused on it a great deal. Of course I re-watched the films I discussed a number of times, as well as read some critical work and reviews to immerse myself in the essence of what I wanted to write. I think it came out ok!

Here’s the link: Fatalism And Futility In Film Noir

5). When and why did you start blogging?

I began in 2016 for a few reasons; I have always loved classic film and wanted to write about it. The advice that kept popping up in my face was quite simple – just DO IT. It was also an avenue to developing an idea for a book (which I am still working on) nI finally took on the challenge and whilst I have been disillusioned and disheartened at times, I’ve tried to remember why I started writing in the first place and I am starting to get my mojo back.

It’s also a desire to keep alive an appreciation of classic cinema, at a time when it is slowly being eroded away and diminished by so many factors. Researching and writing about classic cinema is also a fantastic way of learning more and I wanted that to be a key part of the reason I started blogging.

The key with writing is simple yet difficult at the same time – just WRITE. Even if they come out terrible, the process is still cathartic as well as being a learning opportunity.

6). You’re hosting a themed Halloween party. Which book or film would you use as the theme and in what ways?

It would be Roman Polanski’s film The Fearless Vampire Killers – simply because it would give everyone a chance to become a creature of the night. Everyone of course would be dressed in period piece, the party would be held in a beautiful old ballroom for everyone to dance the night away and the hired staff (suitably attired) would be on duty to provide everyone with enough food and beverages and keep them satisfied. For those who are interested, there would be viewing rooms with different classic and not so classic horror films playing – and of course the decorations would be appropriate to the evening.

7). What was the last film you saw that really blew you away and why?

The Irishman. Not only were there incredible performances from De Niro and Pacino, but there was also the reminder of why I miss Joe Pesci so much on the big screen. Ray Romano was no slouch and perfectly cast. A tour de force of a film!

8). Marry, Kiss, or Kill: Which film character would you marry, which would you share a hot, pre-code kiss with, and which would you kill like a noir anti-hero or villain(ess) with a score to settle? (And why did you pick these 3?)

Marry: Nora Charles (Myrna Loy). That is assuming Nick was deceased and she was available. (I know that sounds awful but…it is Myrna Loy after all! To spend a lifetime with such a gorgeous gal would be heaven!)

Kiss: Marian Martin (Joan Crawford). Locking lips with a hell of a sexy pre-code dame like Joan Crawford would send the temperature soaring!

Kill: Tommy Udo (Richard Widmark). He’s a sadistic, mad dog and dangerous as hell!

9). Which film character’s closet would you love to raid?

Why any character being played by Cary Grant of course!

10). Recast Star Wars using early Hollywood (silent to 1940s) actors and actresses then recast Casablanca with modern actors and actresses (1990s to today).

I’ve also placed the original players next to the recast actors and actresses.

  11). You were working in the lab, late one night, when your eyes beheld an eerie sight. What was it and what did you do?

The hour was beyond the clock, as I looked dazedly upon my work. Was it finished? Was it complete? Was what lay before me everything that I had sweated, ached and poured my heart out for? Or was there more to do?How long had I toiled and found myself lost in the seemingly infinite depths of trying to perfect my creation! Yet at every turn there were obstacles; some I had placed there, the rest beyond my control – or so I told myself. The distinction between perseverance and madness had long blurred and I could not remember the last time I had spoken to someone about the weather or sat at the table to eat. Indeed, what was finally driving me to complete my work was something I could not ascertain, even when I deigned to find some moments of peace in disturbed sleep. Even then the only reason I closed my eyes was a justification to allow myself to recover to continue my work. And so at that point, I slumped in my seat and felt my arms fall lifelessly by my side. It was enough. There was no more that I could do. Yet something compelled me to turn to my right, as if a presence was watching me. Finding myself torn between daring to look and pretending there was nothing there, I nonetheless apprehensively turned slowly towards an apparition beyond my wildest nightmares. Staring at me was a figure so grotesque that I could not scream. As I opened my mouth in silent horror, the figure did the same, as if it were mocking my terror and laughing inside at my frozen fear. Its eyes were large and dark, sunken in what appeared to be the hollows of a long dead oak, with hair hanging down bedraggled over its’ face. Its pale face was fixated on me like a predator eyeing its’ prey and as I instinctively raised my hand in some pathetic attempt to fend it off, I saw it too raise its’ fiendish arm as if ready to strike. Rising slowly out of my chair, the figure also stood and I knew that at any moment, it may rush at me and inflict violence upon me. Determined to defend myself, I saw its’ face contort into a horrific mask of contemptuous violence. My fists clenched into red knuckled balls of fury. And waited. Bracing myself for the attack to come. But then I noticed a change in my tormentor’s face, as it looked at me questioningly. I, too, found myself staring back, realising that I knew who it was and the realisation hit me like a thousand thunderbolts all at once… I touched the mirror with the tips of my fingers before turning back to my creation and hitting the ‘Publish’ button on the screen. Sleep beckoned…

Welcome back everyone to the third and final part of our look back to “The Vintage Collection” toy line.

We have covered the single packed figures and in this installment, we are going to check out the rest of the line including vehicles, multi-packs, mail-away and convention exclusives and the only creature set. There’s a ton of great stuff left to go through so let’s get started.

The line takes a slightly different turn at this point because the single figures were mostly available at all retailers minus a few exceptions. The multi-packs and vehicles seem to be the exact opposite, being mostly released as retailer exclusives through Target, K-Mart, Amazon and Toys R Us, again, minus a few exceptions.

Vehicles and Beasts

TVC saw 15 vehicle releases from all the movies except “TPM” and included one under “The Clone Wars” cartoon. All but three were retailer exclusives with the rest being divided up between Amazon (2), Toys R’ Us (5), Target (3) and K-Mart (2). Unlike the figures, there is no numbering system for the vehicles, but with only 15 releases, it’s really not hard to keep track of them. The easiest way is to look at each retailer and list their exclusives. I also included the only beast set from TVCin this section to makes things a little more organized and it’s kind of a vehicle too!

K-Mart

The Scout Walker AT-ST from “RotJ”

B-Wing Starfighter from “RotJ”

Amazon

TIE Interceptor from “TESB”

Slave 1 from “TESB”

Target

Imperial TIE Fighter from “TESB”

Land speeder from “Star Wars”

Rebel Armored Snowspeeder from “TESB”

Luke Skywalker’s Tauntaun from “TESB”

Toys R’ Us

Biggs’ Red 3 X-Wing Fighter from “Star Wars”

Imperial AT-AT from “TESB” – Also released in a variant “RotJ” package

Millennium Falcon from “TESB”

Republic Gunship from “AotC”

Y-Wing Starfighter from “RotJ”

Non Exclusives

AT-AP from “RotS”

Obi-Wan Kenobi’s Jedi Star Fighter from “RotS”

V-19 Torrent Star Fighter from “The Clone Wars”

The vehicles in TVC were just as impressive as the figures and like them were mostly re-issues. There was still an attention to small details that fit right in with this line like movie realistic control panels, realistic lighting effects, great paint apps, vehicle and movie-specific accessories and some of the bigger vehicles even came with figures included. This is something that the original Kenner line never did and is more associated with Hasbro’s G.I. Joe line.

The vehicles were a great addition to TVC, but most would carry such a high price tag, that it made it tough for collectors to shell out more money for vehicles that they already owned. The Millennium Falcon, for example, was an exact re-release of the 2008 Legacy Collection ship costing $100.00. When it was released for TVC,  it came in at a staggering $250.00!

Multi-Packs

The 14 multi-packs were split between K-Mart and Target exclusives with 14 total. The vintage Kenner line had several of these throughout its run and included characters from a specific scene or those who shared the same affiliation (rebels, imperials, etc.). Hasbro kept the same theme with these packs and only focused on the original trilogy.

The 5 sets that were sold in K-mart were actually 2-packs with three of them focused on the battle of Endor with two Ewok sets and an AT-ST crew set. One of the Ewok sets actually came with the assault catapult from the battle.

The other two sets focused on the Imperial scanning crew from “ANH”. The neat thing of these two sets is that each one contained the two figures and either the bottom or top half the crate that they carried the equipment in from the movie so you had to buy both sets to complete the scene.

The other 9 sets from Target were straight three packs that only contained figures. These sets focused on characters with similar movie affiliations, droids, heroes, villains, imperials, etc.

These are pretty straightforward sets so there’s not a lot to cover with one exception. The “Android” set comes with C-3PO, R2-D2 and…. you guessed it, Chewbacca?! Your guess is as good as mine as to how these three characters were included together in the “Android” set.

Convention Exclusives and Mail Aways

There were two straight mail away figures included in TVC and one that is kind of a mix between a mail way and store exclusive.

The first mail away figure was in 2010 and was something fans and older collector’s had been promised for over 30 years. A Rocket-Firing Boba Fett was finally offered and delivered to fans under the TVC banner. It was made in the super detailed and articulated style of the line and looked great. This really helped kick off this line in a big way showing collector’s that Hasbro was looking to give us some unique pieces.

The second mail away was Boba Fett in Prototype Armor (#61) in 2011. It was done in the style of his original all-white armor that was early in the character design for “TESB”. It’s a really cool looking figure that has been done several times since this one in The Black Series line and by Funko and Sideshow. It was even given a number in the basic figure assortment to help it fit in the line.

The third figure was really more of a store exclusive than a mail away but I included it here because it could fit in either category. The online toy retailer, Brian’s Toys, offered a Jocasta Nu figure that was only available through them. Even though it is a basic carded figure it was not given a number in the basic line. TVCshines right here by not forgetting some of the background characters from the saga that we would not normally see a super articulated figure for.

There were also three convention exclusive sets that were offered to collectors.

The first was from Celebration V in 2010 and came in the form of a 4-LOM/Zuckuss two-pack in a box set. Each figure came on its own cardback that was foil stamped and in keeping with the vintage theme, kept the error from the original Kenner cards that had their names switched.  The packaging was cool with a fold open box that revealed both carded figure behind their own window and a cardboard sleeve that slid over the box when it was closed up. Neither of these two figures was given a number in the normal basic line assortment.

The second exclusive was from SDCC 2011 and was called the “Revenge of the Jedi (Death Star Set)”. This was a 14 figure set that included two exclusives. The package is a MASSIVE circle with a graphic of the second Death Star on the front. Again, it folds open to reveal the 14 carded figure on the inside. It includes all of the 12 figures from the “Revenge of the Jedi” line in the basic assortment and 2 exclusive mini figures: Salacious Crumb (#66) and Mouse Droid (#67). These exclusives were given numbers in the basic assortment.

The third convention exclusive is the strangest of all the sets and is really only connected to TVC by one figure which is the oddest figure in the entire line. The 2012 SDCC exclusive was the “Carbonite Chamber Collector’s Pack”. This was a 7 figure set with one exclusive in a pretty elaborate package meant to mimic the carbon freezing chamber.  Six of the seven figures were carded on a new card design that Hasbro was calling “The Lost Line”, representing one character from each film.  This new card was a throwback to a design that was originally considered by Kenner in the 70”s. These six were eventually re-released in the stores with the new card.

The seventh figure in this set is the direct tie-in to TVC. Jar Jar Binks in Carbonite Block was the exclusive figure in this set and comes on a vintage style card under “TPM” heading. This is by far the strangest figure in the set but goes to show how much fun Hasbro had with this entire line. The figure was not given a number in the basic line of figures.

Whew! That does it for our rundown of The Vintage Collection from 2010-2012. I had a blast doing the research for these articles and looking at all the releases from this line. This was such a great set of figures and vehicles and if you have been following this article I hope you have enjoyed it and learned a little in the process.

The new figures are starting to hit stores as I type this so I would urge anyone who is on the fence about collecting this line to start looking now because it looks like Hasbro has got some great things in store for us this time.  Good lucking hunting!

Top 5 meu filmes favoritos

1.Star Wars Criador:George lucas Personagens: Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader, Jake Lloyd, Hayden Christensen, Hayden Christensen James Earl Jones (vos darth vader), Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ewan McGregor, Alec Guinness, R2-D2, C-3PO, Yoda,princesa leia

História

A série teve início com o simples título Star Wars, criado e dirigido por George Lucas, lançado em 25 de maio de 1977. Na época da sua estreia foi a maior bilheteria de todos os tempos, arrecadando US$ 775.398.007 milhões de dólares e ganhando sete prêmios no Óscar.

A Fox desacreditou num filme que falava sobre o espaço - na época uma loucura -, permitiu que George Lucas tivesse todos os direitos do filme. Devido o sucesso garantiu a ele dinheiro suficiente para abrir sua empresa cinematográfica: Lucasfilm. O sucesso foi tão grande, que o filme foi transformado em uma franquia e ganhou produtos derivados. Em 1978, Star Wars teve um especial de Natal para TV, o The Star Wars Holiday Special exibido pela CBS, sendo notório por ter uma grande recepção negativa e nunca ter sido exibido novamente na televisão ou lançado em DVD. George Lucas não teve envolvimento significativo na produção e demonstrou decepção com o resultado final.

Seguido pelo fiasco natalino, vieram sequências de sucesso nos cinemas: O Império Contra-Ataca lançado em 21 de maio de 1980, considerado pela crítica e público o melhor filme da série, pelo seu equilíbrio entre momentos sombrios e dramáticos. A trilogia foi fechada pelo O Retorno de Jedi lançado em 25 de maio de 1983, que apesar do sucesso comercial recebeu críticas pelo seu tom leve. Após o lançamento de O Império Contra-Ataca, Star Wars (1977) ganhou o subtitulo “Episódio IV: Uma Nova Esperança”. Isto ocorreu porque na época George Lucas tinha anunciado a “trilogia de prequela”, lançada no final dos anos 90, e a trilogia original seria os capítulos 4, 5 e 6 da saga.[6]

Na década de 80, por causa do sucesso dos ewoks entre as crianças, foram lançados os filmes para TV: Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure (1984) e sua sequência, Ewoks: The Battle for Endor (1985). Os Ewoks também ganharam uma série animada exibida entre 1985-87 na ABC assim como os droids C3PO e R2-D2 tiveram também na ABC uma série animada entre 1985-86.

2. Forrest Gump: O Contador de Histórias (BR) Direção Robert Zemeckis Forrest Gump (Forrest Gump: O Contador de Histórias (título no Brasil) ou Forrest Gump (título em Portugal)) é um filme norte-americano de 1994, dirigido por Robert Zemeckis com Tom Hanks no papel-título e baseado no romance homônimo de 1986 escrito por Winston Groom. O filme também traz no elenco Robin Wright Penn e Gary Sinise. A história atravessa várias décadas na vida do personagem central, Forrest Gump, um homem simples do Alabama que viaja ao redor do mundo, encontra figuras históricas, influencia a cultura popular e é testemunha de alguns dos eventos históricos mais notórios da segunda metade do século XX. O filme difere substancialmente do romance de Winston Groom, no qual foi baseado. As filmagens aconteceram em 1993, principalmente nos estados da Geórgia, Carolina do Norte e Carolina do Sul. O filme fez grande uso de imagens geradas por computador para incorporar o protagonista em filmagens antigas e no desenvolvimento de outras cenas. A trilha sonora do filme é composta de muitas faixas, e seu lançamento comercial vendeu 4,42 milhões de cópias. Lançado nos Estados Unidos em 6 de julho de 1994, Forrest Gump foi bem recebido pelos críticos e tornou-se o maior sucesso comercial do cinema estadunidense naquele ano, arrecadando mais de 677 milhões de dólares ao redor do mundo. Desde o lançamento do filme, várias interpretações têm sido feitas acerca do simbolismo político do protagonista. Em 1996, um restaurante temático baseado no filme foi aberto, e desde então expandiu-se com várias filiais ao redor do mundo. A cena de Forrest correndo através dos Estados Unidos é geralmente referenciada por indivíduos reais que tentam o desafio. Forrest Gump foi indicado a treze Oscars, o filme ganhou em seis categorias, incluindo Melhor Filme, Melhor Diretor (Robert Zemeckis) e Melhor Ator (Tom Hanks). Sinopse Editar Gtk-paste.svg Aviso: Este artigo ou se©ção contém revelações sobre o enredo. O filme começa com uma pena caindo aos pés de Forrest Gump, sentado numa parada de ônibus em Savannah, na Georgia. Forrest pega a pena e coloca-a dentro de um livro, e então começa a contar a história de sua vida a uma mulher sentada próxima a ele. Os ouvintes na parada de ônibus variam. Forrest mostra ter muito de sua vida ensinado por sua mãe. Forrest frequentemente repete suas frases favoritas, incluindo “A vida é como uma caixa de bombons, você nunca sabe o que vai encontrar” e “Idiota é quem faz idiotice”. Outras pessoas que têm papéis importantes na vida de Forrest são Jenny Curran, uma amiga de infância que é sexualmente abusada por seu pai; Benjamin Buford “Bubba” Blue, um jovem negro pescador de camarões que serve junto com Forrest na Guerra do Vietnã e sabe “tudo que se pode saber sobre camarões”; e o Tenente Dan Taylor, que é o comandante da unidade onde Forrest e Bubba servem; Alguns anos após o encerramento da guerra, Forrest propõe o casamento a Jenny. Ela recusa. Mais tarde aquela noite eles fariam sexo. Na manhã seguinte ela iria embora. Para compensar o vazio em seu coração, Forrest corre através dos Estados Unidos por três anos e meio. Ele é chamado de “um jardineiro de Greenbow, Alabama”, em noticiários sobre suas corridas. Forrest está esperando o ônibus porque em 30 de março de 1981, ele recebeu uma carta de Jenny que, após vê-lo na televisão, convida-o para visitá-la. Forrest mostra a carta de Jenny a uma das ouvintes, uma paciente senhora idosa que mesmo após perder seu ônibus continuava a ouvi-lo; ela conta a ele que para chegar ao endereço da carta não é necessário pegar o ônibus, uma curta caminhada basta. Ele agradece a senhora e imediatamente começa a correr. Uma vez que ele encontra Jenny e seu jovem filho, Jenny conta a ele que o garoto é chamado Forrest, assim como o pai dele. Primeiramente ele pensa que ele é filho de um outro homem chamado Forrest, mas depois ela confirma que o filho é realmente dele. Ela também conta a Forrest que está infectada com um vírus. Juntos, os três se mudam para Greenbow, onde Jenny e Forrest finalmente se casam, mas o casamento dura pouco por causa da morte de Jenny “numa manhã de sábado” segundo Forrest. Sua lápide dá a data de 22 de março de 1982 (na verdade o dia 22 de março de 1982 foi uma segunda-feira, não um sábado). É comum atribuirem sua doença ao vírus da AIDS. Contudo, nos anos 80, o vírus da AIDS já era conhecido. Na cena, Jenny explica que os médicos não sabem com que tipo de vírus ela está infectada. É mais plausível assumir que Jenny sofra de Hepatite C, a qual só passou a ser conhecida em 1989. O filme termina com Forrest levando seu filho a um ônibus escolar; com a aproximação do ônibus, o pai pega o livro que sua mãe lia para ele, e deixa cair uma pena, que havia aparecido no início do filme; então, sem perceber isso, Forrest devolve o livro à mochila do filho e pondera sobre dizer algo ao seu filho, mas decide de última hora não dizer (provavelmente diria algo sobre não dar importância se alguém zombasse dele na escola, mas deve ter lembrado que devido ao fato dele mesmo ter sido zombado na época de escola, acabou conhecendo Jenny). Então pai e filho dizem que se amam. A pena no livro de Forrest é levada pelo vento, e flutua ao céu, como no início do filme. Os ouvintes na parada de ônibus Editar Uma moça, com cerca de 30 anos, que não presta atenção em Gump e lê uma revista People enquanto ele fala sozinho. Assim que a moça sai, uma mulher (com uma criança de colo), que ouvia a história começa a puxar papo a partir do fato que Forrest menciona o atentado ao ex-governador do Alabama, George Wallace. Quando a mulher pega o seu ônibus, um senhor, gordo , e de meia-idade, continua a ouvir a história com Forrest. Quando o senhor barrigudo sai (às gargalhadas por não crer que Gump tenha fundado a empresa de camarão junto com o Tenente Dan), uma paciente senhora idosa continua a ouvir Forrest. Mesmo após perder seu ônibus continuava a ouvi-lo. Ela é a última a ouvi-lo e, emocionada com a história, é quem informa a Forrest que ele não precisa ir de ônibus até a casa de Jenny. Tom Hanks como Forrest Gump Gary Sinise como Tenente Dan Taylor Gump se encontrando com pessoas famosas Ele é um descendente de Nathan Bedford Forrest, general confederado e fundador da Ku Klux Klan. Isto pode ser considerado uma ironia pois Forrest se torna amigo de um negro chamado Bubba, que ele conhece no exército. Porém, também pode não ser irônico, uma vez que Nathan B. Forrest rapidamente se desiludiu com o que criou e rapidamente tentou se dissociar do seu passado. Ele encontra Elvis Presley quando Elvis estava na sua casa como um hóspede. Suas tentativas curiosas de dançar com um aparelho nas pernas inspiraram os famosos movimentos de quadril de Elvis. Enquanto corria para escapar de um grupo de arruaceiros, a velocidade de Forrest é notada pelo técnico Bear Bryant da University of Alabama. Forrest é recrutado pelo técnico Bryant para jogar futebol americano, que ele joga por cinco anos, na posição de retornador. Sendo assim, ele fez parte da equipe que venceu o Campeonato da NCAA em 1961. Também significa que ele jogou com Joe Namath. Jogando por Alabama, Forrest impressiona Bryant com sua velocidade, mas o incomoda com sua estupidez. As habilidades de Forrest o levam a ser escolhido à equipe das estrelas. Ele encontra o presidente John Kennedy após a equipe das estrelas do futebol americano universitário ser convidada à Casa Branca. Uma vez que era de graça, Forrest bebeu 15 garrafas de Dr Pepper. Após apertar a mão do presidente Kennedy, este pergunta como ele sentia, Gump respondeu: “Estou apertado”. Ele depois encontraria o presidente Lyndon Johnson, que o presenteia com a medalha de honra pelo resgate heroico de seus colegas soldados. Após Forrest contar a Johnson sobre seu ferimento, Johnson diz que gostaria de ver o ferimento alguma hora. Nisso, Forrest hesitantemente, mas obedientemente abaixa suas calças e mostra o ferimento em suas nádegas. Presidente Johnson vai embora, murmurando, “Caramba, filho.” Num protesto em Washington, Gump encontra Abbie Hoffman e faz um discurso que não se ouve devido a problemas técnicos (um oficial militar puxa os fios do microfone dos alto-falantes e do sistema de som). A multidão acaba por aplaudir Gump após a reação emocionada do líder do protesto ao final do discurso. De acordo com Tom Hanks, Gump diz: “Algumas vezes quando as pessoas vão ao Vietnã, elas vão pras casas de suas mamães sem suas pernas. Algumas vezes elas nem voltam para casa. Isso é muito mau. E isso é tudo o que tenho a dizer sobre esse assunto.” Finalmente, após fazer parte da equipe de tênis de mesa dos Estados Unidos, ele encontra o presidente Richard Nixon, que pergunta a Gump onde ele está hospedado, e então oferece a Forrest um hotel muito melhor, que era o complexo de escritórios e hotel de Watergate. Forrest liga para a recepção após perceber várias lanternas numa outra sala, chamando atenção ao que seria o Caso Watergate, que precipitaria a queda de Nixon. Ele encontra Dick Cavett e John Lennon no programa de entrevistas de Cavett, e suas visões da China inspiram Lennon a compor “Imagine” No DVD da edição de colecionador há mais duas cenas deletadas. Numa, Forrest joga tênis de mesa com George H. W. Bush, na época embaixador na China. Noutra, Forrest salva a marcha pelos direitos civis de Martin Luther King brincando com os cães da polícia. O barco de pesca de camarões de Forrest Gump foi o único a sobreviver a fúria total do Furacão Carmen, um furacão de categoria 4 que veio pela Louisiana em 1974. Ele, além de ser dono da indústria de pesca Bubagump, também é acionista da indústria tecnológica Apple Inc., porém ele não sabe muito bem disso, pois quando recebe a carta de Tenente Dan dizendo que fez investimentos na indústria ele diz que “ O Tenente Dan investiu em um negócio de frutas”. E quando estava correndo pelos Estados Unidos Gump serviu de inspiração para a frase de parachoque mais icónica do mundo e para a camisa com um smile e a frase have a nice day imortalizada pela banda Bon Jovi Gtk-paste.svg Aviso: Terminam aqui as revelações sobre o enredo.

Herthum Médico 3.perdido em marte Direção Ridley Scott Sinopse Gtk-paste.svg Aviso: Este artigo ou se©ção contém revelações sobre o enredo. A tripulação da missão espacial Ares III recolhem material em Acidalia Planitia no planeta Marte em Sol 18. Devido a uma forte tempestade são obrigados a abortar a missão. Na evacuação, um deles, Mark Watney, é atingido por destroços. Os outros acreditam que ele morreu e partem. A NASA informa ao público o ocorrido e seu funeral simbólico é realizado. Porém, Watney sobreviveu: um pedaço de antena e sangue seco tamparam o furo em seu traje. Medica-se e passa registrar seu cotidiano em vídeo. Mesmo sem possibilidade de sobreviver a vista, recorre a ciência. Primeiramente como botânico graduado pela Universidade de Chicago, improvisa uma estufa no interior do alojamento com fezes, solo marciano e água produzida a partir de hidrazina para o cultivo de batatas. Pensando a longo prazo, planeja alcançar a cratera Schiaparelli, distante 3.200 km onde pousará a tripulação da próxima missão, a Ares IV, dali a quatro anos. Aumenta a autonomia do rover pegando as baterias do outro rover danificado e não acionando o aquecimento interno, ao instalar um perigoso gerador termoelétrico de radioisótopos bem atrás de si. Enquanto isso, no Centro Espacial Lyndon Johnson, Mindy Park nota diferenças nas imagens vindas do local da missão no planeta e informa ao Dr. Vincent Kapoor - diretor das missões a marte. Convencido que Mark Whatley ainda está vivo, reúne-se com o administrador da NASA, Teddy Sanders, o diretor de controle de vôo da nave Hermes, Mitch Henderson e a diretora de Relações públicas, Annie Montrose. Decidem não revelar a tripulação da Hermes, contra a opinião de Henderson, para não distraí-los em sua jornada de volta a Terra. Numa tentativa de comunicar-se com a NASA, dirige-se ao local de pouso da sonda Mars Pathfinder lançada em 1997 e inativa desde então para resgata-la. Seus deslocamentos são acompanhados pelo controle da missão e Kapoor percebe a intenção de Watney. Dirige-se a sede do Laboratório de Propulsão a jato para examinar uma réplica da sonda. Em Sol 109 Watney retorna ao alojamento e consegue reativar a Pathfinder. Por meio da câmera da sonda estabelece uma comunicação rudimentar com a réplica do Laboratório utilizado-se do sistema hexadecimal. A partir daí obtém instruções de hackear o rover para este conectar-se a Pathfinder e esta com a NASA. A comunicação é estabelecida e fica aborrecido ao saber que a tripulação da Hermes não foi informada que ainda vive. Enquanto isso, ouve a contragosto a música disco dos pertences da comandante da missão Melissa Lewis. O planejamento parece que irá dar certo: a comida durará até a próxima missão de suprimentos. Porém em Sol 134 um compartimento do alojamento sofre uma infiltração e a plantação é totalmente destruída. A NASA diminui ao máximo o prazo para o envio da missão de suprimentos ignorando até as inspeções de segurança. O lançamento da sonda, no entanto, falhou. A agência espacial chinesa CNSA oferece ajuda disponibilizado seu foguete Tayang Shen. Enquanto isso, um especialista em Astrodinâmica do Laboratório de propulsão, Rich Purnell, elabora uma trajetória para a Hermes retornar a Marte mais rapidamente com combustível e suprimentos do foguete chinês em Sol 561. Apesar de achar o plano viável, Teddy Sanders o rejeita priorizando a segurança do retorno da Ares III. O plano é enviado anonimamente a tripulação da Hermes, que concorda por unanimidade, e altera suas coordenadas a revelia da NASA. Esta acaba cedendo. Sete meses depois, em Sol 461, Watney deixa o alojamento a bordo do rover em direção a cratera Schiaparelli. Chega em Sol 538 onde está instalada o VAM, o veículo de ascenção a Marte. Seguindo as instruções da NASA de tornar o VAM o mais leve possível, livra-se de todo o peso prescindível, inclusive do bico e das janelas, cobrindo-a apenas com lona. Em Sol 561 ele decola do planeta para a interceptação com a Hermes. De volta a terra, Watney torna-se instrutor da NASA para aspirantes a astronautas. A missão Ares V é lançada.

De Volta Para o Futuro Direção Robert Zemeckis Enredo Editar Marty McFly é um adolescente vivendo com uma família sem vida e sem ambição na cidade de Hill Valley, Califórnia. Seu pai, George McFly, é constantemente intimidado por seu supervisor de trabalho, Biff Tannen, e sua mãe infeliz, Lorraine Baines McFly, está acima do peso e tem um problema com bebida. Os irmãos de Marty, Dave e Linda, vivem ainda na casa dos pais trabalhando em subempregos. Almejando alcançar seu sonho de tornar-se um astro de rock, Marty e sua banda fazem um teste para tocarem em uma festa da escola, no qual acabam sendo rejeitados. Apesar do revés, a namorada de Marty, Jennifer Parker, o encoraja a não desistir de seus objetivos e acreditar em seu futuro. No jantar daquela noite, Lorraine conta à família como ela e George se apaixonaram quando seu pai o atropelou na rua. Ficheiro:McFly House.jpg A casa usada como residência dos McFly na trilogia Back to the Future. Na madrugada do dia 25 de outubro de 1985, Marty encontra seu amigo, o cientista Dr. Emmett Brown, no Twin Pines Mall às 1:15 a pedido do Doutor. Lá, ele revela ao rapaz um DeLorean DMC-12 modificado para tornar-se uma máquina do tempo; o deslocamento temporal do veículo, que é acionado quando a máquina atinge 88 milhas por hora de velocidade, é providenciado por um aparato chamado “Capacitor de Fluxo”, que exige 1,21 Gigawatt providenciados por fissão nuclear. Para conseguir o plutônio que abastece o reator, o Doutor enganou terroristas líbios que queriam que ele construísse uma bomba nuclear. Após um teste com seu cachorro, Dr. Brown se prepara para viajar para o futuro, quando os líbios aparecem e matam o cientista a tiros de metralhadora. Indefeso, Marty tenta escapar no DeLorean, porém, durante a fuga, acaba alcançando a velocidade de 88 milhas por hora e é transportado para 5 de novembro de 1955, uma data que o Doutor havia programado nos instrumentos de navegação do DeLorean como um exemplo. Sem força, o carro eventualmente se desliga sozinho e Marty agora encontra-se preso em 1955. Ao explorar a Hill Valley daquela década, Marty acidentalmente encontra seu pai, George, como um adolescente que é intimidado por Biff. Quando George está prestes a ser atropelado pelo carro do pai de Lorraine, Marty o empurra salvando-o e recebendo o impacto em seu lugar. Como resultado, a jovem Lorraine fica apaixonada por ele e não por George. Marty fica perturbado pelos flertes dela e parte da residência dos Baines para encontrar o jovem Doutor Brown de 1955. O rapaz eventualmente convence o incrédulo Emmett de que ele é realmente um viajante do tempo e pede sua ajuda para voltar a 1985. O Doutor explica que a única fonte de energia capaz de gerar 1,21 Gigawatts é um raio. Marty então mostra a ele um panfleto que ele havia recebido no dia anterior na praça do relógio da Torre sobre um raio que havia atingido a Torre do Relógio da cidade, desativando-o desde então. O panfleto indicava que um raio iria atingir o relógio da corte judicial de Hill Valey no sábado seguinte às 22h04min. Com esta informação, o Doutor cria um plano para fazer a energia do raio ser direcionada para o Capacitor de Fluxo do DeLorean. Todavia, os dois observam uma complicação ao ver a imagem dos irmãos de Marty desaparecendo em uma foto: Marty impediu que seus pais se encontrassem e comprometeu a existência dele e de sua família. Durante toda a semana seguinte, Marty tenta consertar o paradoxo temporal e salvar seu futuro com seus pais, porém ele só consegue que o interesse de Lorraine por ele vá gradativamente aumentando. Para poder fazer os dois se apaixonarem, Marty planeja fazer George “resgatar” Lorraine dos avanços sexuais encenados por ele na noite do baile “Encantamento do Fundo-do-Mar”. Entretanto, o plano não corre exatamente como o planejado, já que Marty é interrompido por um embriagado Biff que inesperadamente surge, tirando Marty do carro e abusando de Lorraine. George aparece como planejado para resgatá-la de Marty, porém acaba encontrado Biff. Apesar das ameaças de Biff, George abandona sua costumeira submissão e o enfrenta pela primeira vez, lhe dando um forte soco no rosto, deixando-o inconsciente. Lorraine e George vão para o baile onde eles se beijam pela primeira vez, assegurando a existência de Marty e seus irmãos. Com seu futuro salvo, Marty chega na cena do antecipado raio na torre do relógio onde o Doutor está fazendo os preparativos finais. Marty tenta avisá-lo sobre seu assassinato em 1985 com uma carta, porém o Doutor a rasga sem ler, com medo de alterar o futuro. Um enorme galho de árvore acidentalmente desconecta o arranjo de fios do Doutor para capturar a energia do raio, porém os dois consertam as conexões a tempo de enviar Marty e o DeLorean de volta para 1985. Apesar de Marty chegar tarde demais para impedir que o Doutor fosse baleado, o Doutor revela que ele juntou os pedaços da carta, descobrindo sobre seu iminente assassinato. Assim sendo, muniu-se previamente com um colete à prova de balas. O Doutor deixa Marty em sua casa e vai para o futuro. Marty acorda na manhã seguinte para descobrir que sua família melhorou significativamente e está mais feliz. Seus irmãos estão em bons empregos, Lorraine é magra e jovial, e um autoconfiante George é um autor de ficção científica de sucesso. Mais notavelmente, George e Lorraine tem uma relação íntima que eles nunca tiveram, enquanto Biff se tornou dono de uma oficina, além de agora ser submisso a George. No momento que Marty reencontra Jennifer, o Doutor aparece, insistindo para que eles o acompanhem no futuro para resolver um problema com seus filhos. Com o Doutor no volante, Marty e Jennifer entram no melhorado DeLorean, agora um carro voador, e vão para o futuro.
