The Wild Bunch (1969) newspaper ad. "A hurricane of crunching hell and fury!"

[chicken-shenanigans]

Seit Ewigkeit wilde Kerle Fan. Kann mich nicht an die Bücher erinnern, hab die Serie nie gesehen, liebe die Filme (1-3 ist superior).

Heute Nacht erfahren, dass es ein aktives Fandom auf Deutsch und Englisch gibt.

Muss gleich mal schauen was ich da alles so verpasst habe...

Warum auch immer Leon in der Übersetzung Kevin heißt 😭

Similar scenes, with interesting parallels and differences, from The Wild Bunch (1969), directed and co-written by Sam Peckinpah Heat (1995), directed and written by Michael Mann

In Sight & Sound's 2012 poll, Mann listed The Wild Bunch as one of the greatest films of all time, saying: "No other picture captures the poignancy of 'the last of', a fin de siècle sense of the West, of ageing, of the pathos of twilight."

IN MEMORIAM: GORDON T. DAWSON

I guess one of the unfortunate side effects of being in showbiz for 30 years is that, nowadays, it seems like there's a steady drip, drip, drip of people I've worked with and respect passing away.

Today it was Gordon T. Dawson's turn.

So moment of silence please while I tip one out for an old gunslinger.

Gordon T. Dawson Dead: ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’ & ‘Rockford Files’ Writer Was 84 – Deadline

Gordon Dawson freelanced DS9's "Shakaar" which is, appropriately, a stealth Western. He was a little bit of the old west that survived into the 21st century. A cowboy in the best way. An earthy stoic with a poetic soul. It was an honor to work with him.

The man collaborated with Sam Peckipah. That makes him a legend even if he hadn't written 9 Rockford Files and 30 Walker: Texas Ranger eps. Combine those things. Step back. Stand in awe.

He also gave the DS9 staff one of the most flattering compliments ever. It's day two of the "Shakaar" break. After a long day one, hammering at the structure, he came back for day two. He looked up at the board and said...

"When you folks get home at night, you must pour blood out of your boots." Cowboy to English translation: "Wow, you guys work HARD." One of the nicest things anyone's ever said to me. One of the finest gentlemen I've ever had the pleasure of breaking story with.

Rest in Peace, Gordon T. Dawson. Ride on past that sunset and straight up to heaven.

15 Years [Digimon Tamers Backstory]

This is a story I started many years ago. Technically it is an anthology, about the Wild Bunch and what they did between their project being defunded and the beginning of Digimon Tamers. And I finished the story - and now I am going to upload the 15 one shots week by week. :)

15 Years

Fandom: Digimon Tamers Characters: The Wild Bunch Genre: Slice of Life

The Wild Bunch project loses funding in 1986. Its members will not be confronted with the Digimon again until the year of 2001.
