Wise words from Nas

[atomicwinnerdreamland]

I love "Matching hats and tax fraud?!"/ the Florida Hat ad for so many reasons (Austin, Louie threatening Gov, THE HAT, etc), but this has to be my fav part:

Gov: The IRS wants to know if this is legally an advertisement.

Louisiana: Legally you gon' hang up the phone. How 'bout that?

Florida: *happy smile* You guys got me matching hats AND tax fraud? You know me so well!

Gov trying to make money off of a happy celebration instead of genuinely being happy is so sad (and accurate ngl), but at least Flo was still happy at the mention of tax fraud lmao. Loui being angry at Gov for not properly being happy for Flo tho is just ✨très belle✨

On a side note, I wonder what Cal and Loui did to convince New York and Texas to be a part of this. Whatever they did, they probably went above and beyond in their persuasion skills lol

Ryan Destiny x New York Fashion Week (2023)

[heaven-is-in-your-arms-series]

I've watched 13 episodes of Beyond Destiny and my experience so far has been...

Prang aka Bunga is so pretty 😍

Ohh, nice background music, reminds me of an Indian melody.

Catch that train Bunga!!!

Oh, they're really going to fall in love straight away? That's not very interesting...but ok, I guess.

Oh, the second lead is Punjan and his character is immediately more interesting than the milquetoast male lead. 🙃

I won't say they aren't cute but I just don't find this romance very compelling at all.

Love a lady with a sharp sense of fashion and a bold lip.

My Prang Punjan bias remains intact (sorry Jes)

They look so good together 😊

Hello amnesia plot, my old friend.

I feel like the drama could be an interesting one where it examines how first loves often don't work out and we watch the couples end up in different relationships after a period of growth but I know that is not going to happen. (Sigh)

She is so glamorous. She could do better than the male lead (sorry Jes, it's not your fault but I am never going to trust a Tawan 😆) but as she wants him she should have him.

Wait, why are they going back to Bunga's home village, that was the source of all the initial trouble, how is it now suddenly safe? ����

Bunga in episode 11 of 17

"I remember everything now, nothing will come between us again."

Me, side eyeing the remaining 6 episodes - that seems a little optimistic girl 🤣

See! It wasn't safe!

Nooooooo, (wail of rage) I knew it, I hoped, HOPED to be wrong but we are getting a faked disability plot....

I feel like I'm going to finish this drama and immediately write angry fix it fan fic. 😅

It has potential but I was hoping for more. I don't mind the usual Lakorn tropes if they do it in an interesting way but it doesn't seem like that's going to happen at this point..four episodes left though 🤞🏻😅

Tolerance Project  Extra John Williams  A Fans Tribuite

Introduction

Today the 28th June marks the end of one of my favourite composers film careers to mark the occasion I have decided to release an updated blog that was  first published last year with a load of new material,

At the age of 90 and according to Google the man who composed over 600 pieces of music for film TV and classical works has announced his desire to retire from the film world. His final film he will write music for will be the  5th and final entry in the Indiana Jones Franchise. Indiana Jones And The Dial of Destiny to watch a trailer for the film click here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQfMbSe7F2g&list=PL17vqAEJv6CXTpRdOfQdpiOim4ammXiwX&index=11

John Towner Williams (born February 8, 1932 is an American composer, conductor and pianist. In a career that has spanned seven decades, he has composed some of the most popular, recognizable and critically acclaimed film scores in cinematic history. Williams has won 25 Grammy Awards, seven British Academy Film Awards, five Academy Awards and four Golden Globe Awards. With 52 Academy Award nominations, he is the second most-nominated individual, after Walt Disney. His compositions are considered the epitome of film music and he is considered among the greatest composers in the history of cinema.

Also this article from the french Lemonade website tells us how John Williams composers unforgetable soundtracks https://www.lemonde.fr/en/culture/video/2023/06/25/how-john-williams-composes-unforgettable-soundtracks-from-star-wars-to-harry-potter_6037212_30.html 

Also the AV club lists his top 20 soundtracks of all time  https://www.avclub.com/john-williams-greatest-film-scores-ranked-1850567897

Williams has composed for many critically acclaimed and popular movies, including the Star Wars saga, Jaws, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Superman, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, the first two Home Alone films, the Indiana Jones films, the first two Jurassic Park films, Schindler’s List, and the first three Harry Potter films. Williams has also composed numerous classical concertos and other works for orchestral ensembles and solo instruments.

Speaking as a personal fan of John Williams I was first introduced to his work when I bought a double CD version of his music for the first star wars film for my birthday. I loved it but it took me a while to get the other soundtrack in the series. I didn’t get round to buying Empire and Return of the Jedi till the special edition Soundtrack releases in 1997.

I loved those as well and I have since bought all of the Star Wars Soundtracks that John Williams worked on.

Williams like John Barry before him had a magical talent for making the music come alive in my head to create scenes and adventures that I never saw on the cinema screen.

The music become the star of the film itself John Williams did this in many of his great film scores 2 of the best examples being Jaws and Close Encounters of the Third Kind both of these films were directored by Steven Speilberg Both John and Steven explained how they made music the star in both of these films in a recent interview you can see it by clicking on this link https://boingboing.net/2023/03/10/steven-spielberg-and-john-williams-on-how-music-became-an-actor-in-jaws-and-close-encounters.html

His excellent score for the first Indiana Jones film the Raiders of the lost ark also had the same effect on me and because of that its always been a film I have enjoyed re- watching seeing it several times over the years.

Williams music has also helped me to enjoy films that I don’t really like these include his scores for both Superman the movie and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial being a good example.

His music also opened up the doorways to other worlds like his work on the Harry Potter films I never read the books and wasnt really interested in going to see the movies till I was persuaded to by a good friend and thanks to her I saw Harry Potters first two adventures on the big screen John Williams main theme for Harry Potter was magical no pun intended.

John Williams The Tolerance Project connection

When we decided to make the Tolerance film in 1999 we decided the best way to approach the film would be through the medium of a dramatic comedy this we would do through a series of film spoofs the first one was the most obvious was Star Wars if you talked to any child of my generation who grew up in the 80s Star wars was the big one with its space battles Special effects and that music by John Williams for the Tolerance film we used the blockbuster main theme to tell our story

Jaws is a 1975 American thriller film directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the 1974 novel by Peter Benchley.It stars Roy Scheider as police chief Martin Brody who, with the help of a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a professional shark hunter (Robert Shaw), hunts a man-eating great white shark that is attacking beachgoers at a summer resort town.

Jaws was the prototypical summer blockbuster, regarded as a watershed moment in motion picture history, and it won several awards for its music and editing. It was the highest-grossing film until the release of Star Wars in 1977

We used the Famous Jaws theme called Main title/First Victim which runs to just 22 seconds,is used twice in the Tolerance film.

 First when Robert played by David Smith on his way to a job interview norrowly avoids being run over  He is saved by a passer-by, played by Dan McTiernan, who was also our first Assistant Director. When Robert is about to be run over you can hear the Jaws theme for the first time. You hear it again when Robert meets the infamous Mr Grosenberg.
