Roles Christopher Walken almost played

Walken was reportedly considered for the role of Willy Wonka along with several other goofballs, including Nicolas Cage, Jim Carrey,  Bill Murray, and Robin Williams. Tim Burton also proposed the role to his friend and frequent collaborator, Johnny Depp, who jumped on the role.  Before settling on the distinctly younger-looking Depp, Pirates producers considered Walken for Jack Sparrow. With Walken in the role, we imagine Sparrow wouldn't have been as much of a sex symbol - though still just as loopy and ambiguously villainous. Walken would have have brought a real edge, added some genuine menace to this character.

collage by Lady Aislinn

Walken war für die zweite Besetzung von Han Solo im „Krieg der Sterne/Star Wars“ vorgesehen (die Rolle bekam dann bekanntlich Harrison Ford).�� Ebenso wurde er für die Ryan O`Neal-Rolle in "Love Story" getestet: "Ich glaube, es ist gut, dass ich die Rolle nicht bekommen habe. Wenn ich den Job angenommen und keine gute Figur gemacht hätte, wäre das das Ende meiner Karriere gewesen. Es ist schon gut so, wie alles gekommen ist." (CW, 2004) Auch wurde er in Betracht gezogen für die Rolle des Jack Sparrow in "Fluch der Karibik", die schließlich Johnny Depp ergatterte... und die des Willy Wonka in "Charlie und die Schokoladenfabrik", die ebenfalls Depp bekam. Bevor George Clooney in "From Dusk Till Dawn" engagiert wurde,  waren u.a. John Travolta, Steve Buscemi und Christopher Walken für die Rolle des Seth Gecko im Gespräch. Keiner der Kandidaten hatte Zeit. "Not Starring" Later, 2014, Walken played a Captain (Hook) in Peter Pan Live

10 Favorite 2000′s horror movies

.....I dont like the horror of the 2000′s.Like I maintain that the 40′s was the worst era for horror ,but the 2000′s for me are pretty close.That said there are some I really like 

I Sell the Dead(2008)

The death row confessions of a graverobber....And his run ins with the supernatural .This film is just fun ,with great performances from Domonic Monaghan,Larry Fessenden,Ron Perlman and Angus Scrimm

Red Eye(2005)

OK a few films on this list I imagine people will argue arent horror movies,this being one of them......The premise of this film is pure horror to me,a woman is on a plane next to a psychopath who is threatening to have her dad killed unless she does what he wants.This film makes you feel trapped ,and Cillian Murphy is utterly terrifying .This is also my favorite Wes Craven movie 

Coraline(2009)

A young girl visits a better version of her own world .....The only requirement is she will have to have buttons sewen onto her eyes .This film is legit horrifying with two headed taffy monsters,a guy made of rats ,and the Beldam who I feel  should be up there with other family movie nightmare fuel villains like the Wicked Witch ,Chernabog,or the Child Catcher 

28 Days Later(2002)

The film focuses on four survivors  of a virus that turns people into zombie like rage monsters.So I kind of avoided this movie for a while ,but I finally saw it last year.....And it’s praised for a reason .I am not the biggest fan of the genre shift near the end but all the acting is fantastic.

The Descent (2005)

A group of women go cave exploring and find an underground race of cannibal monsters .Contender for most nerve wracking film on this list ,this film is claustrophobic ,full of subtlety  and the monsters are legit scary 

Willard(2003)

My favorite film on this list and one of my favorite films period .A rather awkward man befriends an army of rats .This is Crispin Glovers movie  ,he is excelent in this movie ,as is R Lee Ermy as the villainous boss.I also think it’s a remake that is superior to the original 

Repo!The Gentic Opera(2008)

This Rock Opera is about a future where organ failure is rampant,surgery is a fashion statement ,and if you dont make your payments  the Repo Man comes to reclaim your organs.And in this world we have a father with a secret,his sick daughter ,a singer ,three monstrous heirs ,and the richest man in the world who is dying but  has one last act of spite in him that connects all these players .This movie is love it or hate it .....I love it  .The songs are fantastic,the performances especially by Anthony Head ,Paul Sorvino,Bill Moseley,and Sarah Brightman are great ,and I love the films look.I understand the hate ,as this film is very gorey,many of the characters are reprehensible and it’s all around an ugly world ,but I think thats the point .This film will either draw you in or repell you ,and thats OK .This is a movie where I get the praise but also get the backlash 

Shaun of the Dead(2004)

During an outbreak of Zombies,a young man decides to gather up his loved ones and take refuge in a pub .I think most people view this purely as a comedy  but heres the thing:The horror in this movie is played straight ,the humor comes purely from the characters and their reaction to the events .This film not only delivers laughs but has legit heartwarming and even heartbreaking moments.

Murder Party(2007)

A man is invited to  a Halloween party,which turn out to be a set up by some art students who plan on killing him for an art piece .So everyone is an idiot in this movie and I love it  .Usuallly idiocy in horror is annoying but it works for the very dark humor of this movie 

Monster House(2006)

Another animated film ,this time with motion capture (Probabbly the best motion capture movie I have seen) .In this one a house seems to take on a life of it’s own and start eating people .This is a legit scary movie  ,for not only the Monster House itself but Steve Buscemi’s performance as the old man  who owns the house

Weekend Top Ten #481

Top Ten Pixar Villains

Those rascals and rapscallions at Pixar are famous for twisting our emotions, aren’t they? Perverse masters at making us cry with sadness or joy, often at the same time (I’m looking at you, Inside Out, with your yellow and blue marbles). Oh yes, they’ll stick the knife in and give it a good old yank, like John Travolta teaches his daughter to do in Face/Off when he’s not really John Travolta and it’s a bit icky but then she stabs him at the end of the film so it’s alright really.

Where was I?

Oh yeah. Pixar, renowned for turning grown men into blubbering messes, mostly because an adult character was convinced to part with old toys he no longer plays with. But I’d argue that one thing they’ve done less well than their parent studio (that’s Disney) is crafting iconic baddies. I mean, we all know the Disney Villains; they’re so iconic and successful as pop culture icons that there’s an entire trilogy of movies based on what would happen if a bunch of them had kids (apparently they’d sing a lot). Pixar baddies though? Hmmm, maybe not quite so iconic. I can’t see someone making a live action prequel movie about Chef Skinner.

But that’s not to say they’re not great; in fact, rather than going down the route of snarling, moustache-twirling villainy, Pixar actually does a great job in creating antagonists instead. Sometimes they’re misunderstood; sometimes they’re not the person you thought they were! Quite often some kind of redemption is offered, and the villains are very, very rarely dropped off something tall. A lot of them aren’t even defeated, so to speak! A good deal of nuance and shade goes into a Pixar villain, and if they haven’t made as many all-time-great iconic ne’er-do-wells, it does seem as if their approach is starting to rub off on Disney mothership (the likes of Frozen II and Moana either don’t have, or at least subvert, the notion of all-powerful bad guys).

So what do we have? Well, hopefully, we’ve got a list of really cool villains from Pixar movies. most of them are presented as the film’s “big bad”, although there are a couple of lesser baddies. And I think we do see the pattern emerging, of more mundane levels of villainy; the selfish and greedy and damaged. It makes for great characterisation and some beautiful storytelling; some complex and pitiable characters. And, yes, a few absolute bastards too. Let’s tut disapprovingly.

Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear (Ned Beatty, Toy Story 3, 2010): a superb performance from Beatty as a seemingly nice, jovial old bear who’s really a manipulative, power-hungry, gaslighting bully. Realistically portrayed as damaged and bitter, he has a tragic backstory that feels real, and a sense of pain and loss that feels earned in this universe. Questions the nature of everything the movies are about, and is a genuine threat in more ways than one. Plus he literally leaves them all to die in the furnace!

Syndrome (Jason Lee, The Incredibles, 2004): Buddy Pine’s backstory is one of belittlement and rejection, so his switch to villainy is as well explored as many a comic book bad guy. But he’s interesting partly in what his character says about Mr. Incredible – in a way justifying the criticisms of superheroes, as Mr. I does ignore the admittedly-annoying Buddy rather than mentoring or respecting him – but also because he prefigures notions of toxic masculinity about a decade or so before they became, well, a threat to global democracy.

Al (Wayne Knight, Toy Story 2, 1999): Like how Lots-o can be seen as a dark examination of toy life (all toys are replaceable, kids don’t really love you, etc), Al also shows us another dark facet of toy-dom: namely the life of a “collectable”. Toys, in this world, want to be played with, preferably by children, so a big ol’ man-child who stores them in boxes or puts them on display is not ideal. It’s an inversion of what a toy is for; an object of joy reduced to a commodity. Is it entertainment versus art? Who can say? Also, he’s really just a massive jerk and a huge slob, so we feel no pity for him once he gets his comeuppance at the end of the film.

Sid Phillips (Erik von Detten, Toy Story, 1995): man, they nailed the Toy Story villains, didn’t they? Maybe there’s even more to come! But right out of the gate, Sid was a classic. An utter sadist in a skull t-shirt, torturing toys for kicks; adults can see the traits of a genuine sociopath (some serial killers start by torturing animals, remember!), and he’s portrayed like a character in a horror movie. Seriously, in 1995, Sid’s room was legitimately disturbing. I’m not sure what moral lessons his actions teach us, but just as a pure article of terror, he’s supreme.

Hopper (Kevin Spacey, A Bug’s Life, 1998): it feels a bit weird, if I’m honest, to celebrate a Spacey performance. But as a character, Hopper is excellent, one of the best things about the generally-overlooked-but-still-a-bit-lesser-Pixar Bug’s Life. Riffing on biker gangs, Hopper’s locust swarm in, revving their wings. Hopper’s a classic tough guy thug, dominating through violence and threat; a creature with a small amount of power determined to hold onto it, and ultimately eaten by a terrifying bird. Just don’t look at the cast list.

Ernesto de la Cruz (Benjamin Bratt, Coco, 2017): after the horror of Sid and the thuggery of Hopper, de la Cruz is a different, more insidious villain. He’s a thief and a betrayer who exploited and murdered his best friend, condemning him not just to death but to a forgotten obsolescence in the afterlife. He’s a perfect example of the gaslighting, friendly-seeming bad guy, more in the mould of Lots-o, but with the world on his side and a sweet guitar. Genuinely hissable.

Stinky Pete (Kelsey Grammar, Toy Story 2, 1999): what, more Toy Story? Well, yeah. Don’t blame me, blame Pixar. And so Stinky Pete; a far more relatable and understandable villain, one driven to desperation through a lifetime of rejection and broken promises. Unlike the Machiavellian, power-hungry Lots-o, Pete just wants everyone to retire quietly together; he can’t accept the risks of freedom and only becomes sneaky and, indeed, violent after all else fails. But he does kinda get a happy ending, even if he doesn’t realise it; this is a villain who I feel could eventually be redeemed.

Randall Boggs (Steve Buscemi, Monsters, Inc., 2001): Waternoose is the real baddy in Monsters, Inc., of course; a conniving capitalist who’s prepared to sacrifice the world’s children to keep his monopoly. But it’s Randy who sticks in the mind; his selfish, vain lackey, a monster with a huge chip on his shoulder. His design – lizard-like, snake-ish, with a huge mouth and invisibility – is seriously disturbing. Hearing Buscemi’s voice come from that form – an aggravated teacher, a furious accountant – adds something special, something darkly hilarious.

Evelyn Deavor (Catherine Keener, Incredibles 2, 2018): visually and conceptually, The Screenslaver (great name) is pretty cool, but when it’s revealed that the Big Bad is really under-appreciated tech genius Evelyn, that’s a great twist. A smart woman propping up her schmoozing brother, her criticisms of the heroes – like Buddy Pine’s – have resonance, although she’s learning the wrong lessons from tragedy. Her relationship with Elastigirl, from friendship to enmity, is very well-written and performed, and her belligerence at the end is a nice touch, denying the heroes of any catharsis from her capture.

Shelby Forthright (Fred Willard, WALL-E, 2008): I was originally going to feature the autopilot, but then I figured, if you can get Fred Willard in your list… and really, who’s the big villain here? It’s us, right? We killed the Earth. But Willard’s smiling, happy CEO is there, encouraging his customers to buy, promising them safety and security, promising them a repaired world… but really he’s shovelling them off the planet, secretly commanding the computer to take humanity far away and never look back. It’s a devious, horrible plan, giving the people unending luxury, making them want for nothing, turning them into fab, soporific blobs, basically because that’s easier than the alternative. It’s a horrible indictment of humanity (also: he’s the CEO of a company, but also – it looks like – that makes him rule the world? Creepy). So, yeah, the autopilot might be a baddun, but it’s the man in charge who’s the real villain of the piece, even hundreds of years later.

Sadly no room for John Lasseter, who may not have tried to enslave humanity or torture children, but still managed to be a huge jerk and a phenomenal disappointment.

- psycho (1960; one of two hitchcock films on this list. do not be mistaken - this is due to hitchcock having some sort of homophobic fixation that we as gay people are entitled to turn into art.)

- the haunting (1963)

- cruising (1980; everyone should see it at least once.)

- nightmare on elm street 2: freddys revenge (1985; this is THE gay cult horror film. period.)

- fright night (1985)

- the lost boys (1987)

- nightbreed (1990)

- interview with the vampire (1994)

- jennifer’s body (2009)

- all cheerleaders die (2013; this movie is straight up ridiculous watch it.)

i would like to note i absolutely interpret the exorcist as a gay themed horror and WILL write an entire essay defending this position but i did not include it due to some of the subtext being dependent on having read the novel.

gay (male) drama:

- rope (1948)

- the boys in the band (1970; this is hands down the best gay film ever made. bold but true statement.)

- parting glances (1986; yes the steve buscemi one)

- consenting adults (1985; if you only ever watch one classic made-for-tv gay film, watch this one. i believe prayers for bobby is also made-for-tv with sigourney weaver.)

- maurice (1987)

- longtime companion (1990)

- my own private idaho (1991)

- philadelphia (1993)

- wilde (1997)

- in & out (1997; my favorite gay romcom ever.)

- but i’m a cheerleader (1999)

- big eden (2000)

- latter days (2003; i should note this is one leans heavy towards dramedy over romcom but it’s very silly and low budget which affects the tone a lot shall we say lol.)

- DEBS (2004)

- itty bitty titty committee (2007)

- i love you phillip morris (2009)

lesbian movies

- the children’s hour (1961)

“In the HBO series Boardwalk Empire, a politically connected mastermind named Nucky Thompson (played by Steve Buscemi) runs 1920s Atlantic City with an iron fist. In reality, Atlantic City was the fiefdom of Enoch "Nucky" Johnson, a Republican party boss who held uncontested control from 1911 to 1941. In 1912, Nucky's beloved wife, Mabel, died, and Johnson -- who previously never touched booze -- became a dedicated drinker

“In 1927, Johnson joined the cabal of East Coast organized-crime bootleggers known as the Combine, which was led by such notorious figures as Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano. Johnson became the mastermind of a network of vice industries and publicly flouted the laws of Prohibition.

“In 1941, Johnson was convicted on charges of tax evasion and was sentenced to 10 years in a federal penitentiary. The city went into decline for years, until gambling was legalized in 1976. The Miss America contest left the city in 2004. To many, Atlantic City is now best known as the site for the boardgame Monopoly, first sold by Charles Darrow in 1933.”

Adam Richard Sandler (born September 9, 1966) is an American actor, comedian, and filmmaker. After becoming a Saturday Night Live cast member, he went on to star in many Hollywood films, which have combined to earn more than $2 billion at the box office.[2][3]

Sandler is best known for his comedic roles including Billy Madison (1995), Happy Gilmore (1996), The Waterboy (1998), The Wedding Singer (1998), Big Daddy (1999), Mr. Deeds (2002), 50 First Dates (2004), The Longest Yard (2005), Click (2006), Grown Ups (2010), Just Go with It (2011), Grown Ups 2 (2013), Blended (2014) and Murder Mystery (2019). He also voices Dracula in the Hotel Transylvania franchise (2012–present).

Some of Sandler's films, such as Jack and Jill (2011), have been widely panned, and Sandler is the holder of three Golden Raspberry Awards and 11 Raspberry Award nominations, more than any other actor but Sylvester Stallone. Conversely, he has earned praise for his dramatic performances in films such as Punch-Drunk Love (2002), Spanglish (2004), Reign Over Me (2007), Funny People (2009), The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected) (2017), and Uncut Gems (2019).[4]

Sandler was born in Brooklyn, New York, on September 9, 1966,[5] to Judith "Judy" (née Levine), a nursery school teacher, and Stanley Sandler, an electrical engineer.[5] His family is Jewish and descends from Russian Jewish immigrants on both sides.[6][7][8] Sandler grew up in Manchester, New Hampshire, after moving there at the age of six.[9] He attended Manchester Central High School. As a teen, Sandler was in BBYO, a Jewish youth group. Sandler graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in 1988.[10]

Early in his career, in 1987, Sandler played Theo Huxtable's friend, Smitty, in The Cosby Show and the Stud Boy or Trivia Delinquent in the MTV game show Remote Control. After his film debut Going Overboard in 1989, Sandler performed in comedy clubs, having first taken the stage at his brother's urging when he was 17. He was discovered by comedian Dennis Miller, who caught Sandler's act in Los Angeles and recommended him to Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels. Sandler was hired as a writer for SNL in 1990 and became a featured player the following year, making a name for himself by performing amusing original songs on the show, including "The Thanksgiving Song" and "The Chanukah Song".[11] Sandler told Conan O'Brien on The Tonight Show that NBC fired him and Chris Farley from the show in 1995, and played this up in his return to the show as a host in 2019.[12][13]

In 1993, Adam Sandler appeared in the film Coneheads with Chris Farley, David Spade, Dan Aykroyd, Phil Hartman, and Jane Curtin. In 1994, he co-starred in Airheads with Brendan Fraser and Steve Buscemi. He starred in Billy Madison (1995) playing a grown man repeating grades 1–12 to earn back his father's respect and the right to inherit his father's multimillion-dollar hotel empire. The film was successful at the box office despite negative reviews. He followed this film with Bulletproof (1996), and the financially successful comedies Happy Gilmore (1996) and The Wedding Singer (1998). He was initially cast in the bachelor party–themed comedy/thriller Very Bad Things (1998) but had to back out due to his involvement in The Waterboy (1998), one of his first hits.

Although his earliest films did not receive favorable critical attention, he started to receive more positive reviews, beginning with Punch-Drunk Love in 2002. Roger Ebert's review of Punch-Drunk Love concluded that Sandler had been wasted in earlier films with poorly written scripts and characters with no development.[14] Sandler has moved outside the genre of slapstick comedy to take on more serious roles, such as the aforementioned Punch-Drunk Love, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe, and Mike Binder's Reign Over Me (2007), a drama about a man who loses his entire family during the September 11 attacks, and then struggles to rekindle a friendship with his old college roommate (Don Cheadle).

He starred alongside friend Kevin James in the film I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007), and headlined You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008). The latter film was written by Sandler, Judd Apatow, and Robert Smigel, and directed by Dennis Dugan.
