ermmm wowland spoiwers

bonus these r cute:

^ I LOVE THESE SPRITES SO MACH the dodge especially

fun fact: i get all his guns confused all the time so when i drew my 'airhead' animation i mistakenly made him 1-hand the rifle(?) or is it a shotgun?

"food", "food", "...", "food :)"

KJY - "Roland was a character whose eyes were fixed behind in many ways. When he first ran into Salvador, he anxiously kept looking backward and left himself open for a surprise attack. But, there was one time in the past where Roland could look ahead, and the encounter with Angelica is what I think brought change to Roland’s life. With Angelica gone now, he’s regressed to watching behind and reminiscing about the past. To Roland, Angelica is an angel that brought much pain as well as much happiness to him. Overcome with the grief of losing his angel, Roland wanders until he meets another angel: Angela is the source of Roland’s suffering, but at the same time, she gives him a reason to keep on living by any means. I remember the artists at Mili explaining to us as they worked on the song that ‘Gone Angels’ expresses Roland’s determination to kill that angel with his own hands and leave nothing behind."

^^^^^^ that makes me feel so many things

also you know, i only just now realized roland comments on all the groups of characters at the top of their pages <*bad eyes*

some stuff he says:

"Charles’ Office. A band of myself and the eleven Fixers who followed my lead, despite all my shortcomings… Being in the northern part of the City meant many of us had pretty extravagant outfits. I remember laughing at the way Astolfo dressed, too. We were together for quite a long time, and it felt like our company would last forever, but here we are now, going our separate ways. This wasn’t an unexpected outcome, though. I’d wonder if they’re alive and well from time to time, and it was good to see Olivier at the very least. I sometimes miss those simpler times when I could just focus on the now and live in the moment."

(about pierre & jack) "A restaurant aged 11 years in the streets of District 23; although it’s not super popular or anything, it has quite a few regulars. Its specialty is meat-based foods, and the main dish is Pierre’s signature thick meat pies. I’ve never tried one myself, but according to its patrons… the abundance and juiciness of the meat make for a fantastic meal. Now here’s the funny bit: some people don’t seem to know what the pie is made of. Well, Pierre, the head chef of the establishment, isn’t the type to babble out for things no one asked. Besides, we’re talking about District 23… the streets of flavor, y’know? Whatever methods or ingredients were used to make the food… most of those folks don’t pay any attention. They’d rather be taking another bite out of their tasty grub if they have the time to ask questions." (hmmm...)

(about the 8 o'clock circus) "...Perhaps that circus could be the place to restore your smile, forgotten in the hum of everyday life. I’d like to see a performance myself if I ever get the chance." (?? roland you saw what oswald did though......well if he wants to see the circus he can go see the circus <3 love & peace)

(about the smiling faces) "...The Smiling Faces apparently enjoy flaking human flesh into thin fillets to eat… They’re definitely far from the only ones known for cannibalism, but you’ve got to admit, their flesh fillet is something to behold. It’s uncanny how they can make the fillet so thin that you can see through it. Not like… I want to ever eat it." (HMM!? WHY DID U PAUSE)

(about liu association) "...That’s why most Fixers try not to get attached to each other; too many couples end up losing their significant others sooner or later. But, once you feel the warmth of someone precious, you can’t easily let them go. I sometimes wonder what the right thing to do is, if you lose someone who naturally became a huge part of your life." ( D: )

(about liu again) "I must wonder how it feels to be able to cherish something. To make choices for one purpose and even forfeit everything else in order to protect what’s precious. To restrain yourself from grieving for the deaths of the few to save the many who live on; to risk all you have for the sake of your loved one. I suppose it’s not the most unusual feeling. Everyone vaguely senses it, but no one bothers to delve into it. How could one name it… Love? Sympathy? I don’t think it will ever be possible to define this with a single word. A simple word wouldn’t do it justice, either. Nevertheless, it is a matter worth considering time after time."

(about distorted yan) "It sounds like there are beings comparable to gods in the City, such as the Prescripts. I think I’ve seen ‘em a few times myself… although they’re not memories I want to revisit..." (hmm...?)

91 Quotes I Enjoyed From 2020

Below are my favorite quotes from 2020. Though most occurred throughout the year, some took place before but were encountered during.

1) “You don’t have to be new to make new.” - Rick Rubin

2) “He put the beat on and go to sleep then wake up with a verse.” - The Lox

3) “Every opinion is bad.” - Blink-155

4)

(via Twitter)

5) “At the start of every disaster movie, there’s a scientist being ignored.”

6) “Be brave enough to suck at something new.”

7) “Comedy is the only job you can have where you can use everything you know” - Robin Williams via Dave Chappelle

8) “What’s the worst swear word where you live?” - Josiah Hughes

9) “Cookies are a really great way to get everybody to like you for a short period of time” - YSAC

10) “The worst dancer at a wedding is the one who’s not dancing.” - John Mulaney

11) “I never saw the end of the tunnel. I only saw myself running out of one." - Kobe Bryant

12) "A good movie begins as you're walking out of the theater" - Ethan Hawke

13) “When I was young and starting in cinema, there was a saying that I carved deep into my heart which is, 'The most personal is the most creative.’ That quote was from our great Martin Scorsese.” - Bong Joon-ho

14) “Run to the rescue with love, and peace will follow” - River Phoenix via Joaquin Phoenix

15) “Thank you -- I will drink until next morning.” - Bong Joon-ho

16) “Men will bury their emotions for decades and then take it all out on children tubing while they drive the boat.” - @krauter_

17) “They help you with the dumb face stuff, but they don’t tell you how to fix it” - Adam (Nate’s friend), on having older sisters

18) “We all had our connections, but it’s not the details themselves that matter, it’s the feeling behind them. There are a million coming-of-age tales. Lady Bird’s secret sauce is how deeply its creator gave a shit. The older I get, the less I care about anything but the sense of a filmmaker’s personal connection to the material. It doesn’t matter what it’s about, what genre it is, or whether it’s genre at all. I only really care that it feels like something the filmmaker had to tell me, and that it was that filmmaker in particular who had to tell it. It has to answer the ‘why are you telling me this’ question, and not just why are you telling me, but why are you telling me.

Lady Bird is a movie that feels like only Greta Gerwig could’ve made. And it’s only because it’s so specific to her that it can be so meaningful to so many people.” - Vince Mancini

19) "I have cast some lonely votes, fought some lonely fights, mounted some lonely campaigns. But I do not feel lonely now.” - Bernie Sanders

20) “Ever hear a Beatles song you haven’t heard before?”

21) “Drinking is an emotional thing. It joggles you out of the standardism of everyday life, out of everything being the same. It yanks you out of your body and your mind and throws you against the wall. I have the feeling that drinking is a form of suicide where you're allowed to return to life and begin all over the next day. It's like killing yourself, and then you're reborn. I guess I've lived about ten or fifteen thousand lives now.” - Charles Bukowski

22) “You shouldn’t have to hear a band to know if they’re good or not” - Josiah Hughes

23) “I was raised by OGs.  Some of you were raised by IG.  I understand.” - Ice-T

* * *

[Here is where I note the line of demarcation that was the COVID-19 pandemic hitting the US, pushed forward by Tom Hanks’ announcement, the NBA and NCAA shutting down, and, then, the nation itself.]

* * *

24) “There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen.” - Vladimir Lenin

25) "Taken together, this is a massive failure in leadership that stems from a massive defect in character. Trump is such a habitual liar that he is incapable of being honest, even when being honest would serve his interests. He is so impulsive, shortsighted, and undisciplined that he is unable to plan or even think beyond the moment. He is such a divisive and polarizing figure that he long ago lost the ability to unite the nation under any circumstances and for any cause. And he is so narcissistic and unreflective that he is completely incapable of learning from his mistakes. The president’s disordered personality makes him as ill-equipped to deal with a crisis as any president has ever been. With few exceptions, what Trump has said is not just useless; it is downright injurious." - Peter Wehner

26) "Epidemics have a way of revealing underlying truths about the societies they impact." - Anne Applebaum

27) “A funny thing about quarantining is hearing your partner in full work mode for the first time. Like, I’m married to a ‘let’s circle back’ guy — who knew?” - Laura Norkin

28) 

(Jojo Rabbit)

29) “The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. - Deadwood: The Movie

30) “All bleeding stops eventually.” - Deadwood: The Movie

31) “Our Father, which art in heaven… / Let him fucking stay there” - Deadwood: The Movie

32) “It’s like a power outage, but we still have power” - Ryen Russillo, on the pandemic

33) “Whenever Sox baseball returns, it’ll be weird to not have Farmer on the call any more. The relationship between a fan and longtime announcer is always built in the little moments. One afternoon, he’s the soundtrack as you clean the garage. On another night, he’s your bookmark for the game as you stand in line for churros or walk down the ramps at Sox Park to try for better seats in the 100 level. A voice like Farmer’s becomes so familiar that you only really notice when it’s no longer there.” - Kevin Kaduk, on the passing of Ed Farmer

34) 

(via Twitter)

35) “In my songs, I try to look through someone else’s eyes, and I want to give the audience a feeling more than a message” - John Prine

36) “Observe everything. Admire nothing.” - Generation Kill

38) "Whenever they speak Michael Jordan, they should speak Scottie Pippen." - Michael Jordan

39) "Fiction is a bridge to the truth that journalism can't reach." - Hunter S. Thompson

40) “Airlines sending me “we’re in this together” emails. When my suitcase was 52 pounds I was on my own.” - Mike Dentale

41) “Sometimes you can be the worst source of your own story” - Ryen Russillo

42) “Family is not necessarily blood, but instead who you would bleed for.”

43)

(via Twitter)

44) "This is the deal that Jordan made, knowingly or unknowingly — that he would trade everything he had for everything he wanted. And then, when he won all those things, he found that he had nothing but that.” - David Roth

45) “I’m brand loyal, but the brand doesn’t matter” - Caitie Miller, on why she doesn’t like generic peanut butter

46) “NOBODY shitposts Gene Hackman!!” - Mark Dehlinger

47) “When a man concludes that any stick is good enough to beat his foe with—that is when he picks up a boomerang.” - G.K. Chesterton

48) “You can be appalled forever, but shocked only once.” - Jeff Weiss, on early Eminem

49) “Whether I’m pessimistic or optimistic, the fight’s the same” - David Simon

50) “Freedom can never be completely won, but it can be lost.” - Bernard Simon

51) “Racism in America is like dust in the air. It seems invisible — even if you’re choking on it — until you let the sun in. Then you see it’s everywhere. As long as we keep shining that light, we have a chance of cleaning it wherever it lands.” -Kareem Abdul Jabbar

52) “In a racist society, it is not enough to be non-racist -- we must be anti-racist.” - Angela Davis

53) “Start as close to the end as possible” - Kurt Vonnegut, on creative writing

54) “You can’t stay woke all the time — that’s insomnia.” - Dr. Cornel West

Consumer Guide / No.98 / American television, film and stage actress, Bernadette Quigley with Mark Watkins.

MW : What’s new?

BQ : Currently, work is sparse as most of my businesses have been shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic. No films or television shows are being shot in NYC at this moment in time and most of my side businesses are on pause as well. This season’s gardening work didn’t happen at all (because NYC had not yet deemed gardening an essential service).

Thankfully, I have a few coaching (acting) clients I work with often and I had one job before this pandemic hit that I’m still working on - a press and radio campaign for Irish singer-songwriter Ultan Conlon’s beautiful new record, ‘There’s a Waltz’. It’s been gratifying to see reviewers agreeing with me that it’s Ultan’s finest record thus far!

MW : Tell me about your role in Law & Order...

BQ : Well, I had four Law & Order roles, actually. Two are on Law & Order: SVU and two are on the mothership Law & Order.

My first big role on SVU was of a victim, Jean Weston, on the season finale of their 2nd season, many moons ago. This character was a mother and wife from Oregon whose husband and son got stabbed to death by a serial killer – played by Richard Thompson.

I’ll never forget this role for many reasons but primarily it was a job where I discovered I could cry on cue. The director and producers decided they wanted to end the episode with a huge close up of my character, breaking down in the gallery in the courtroom. One of the producers shouted out, “Bernadette…can you cry on cue!?” I meekly replied, “Sure.” Next thing I hear was…”rolling….” and “ACTION”… I looked up, terrified I wouldn’t be able to summon up tears but imagined the hell my character went through and looked deeply into Chris Meloni’s eyes and …phew!...started to cry!

The Law & Order franchise has been a godsend for many actors. Not just financially, which it has and still is but for me, the experience I gained working on those shows led to a lot more television and film work over the years, so I’m forever grateful to creator/producer, Dick Wolf.

MW : What are your own views on law & order? Anything you’d like to see relaxed or tightened up on?

BQ : Feels very naïve and idealistic to say this, but I’d love to see major, police reform. Police brutality is despicable and out of control, especially in Black communities. 

I believe we’re beginning to see the power of the Black Lives Matter movement resulting in some of these police officers losing their jobs and sometimes being arrested themselves for their unspeakable acts of violence, but I imagine we, as a nation, need to keep the pressure on. The police brutality simply has to stop. There has to be more consequences for those senseless deaths. There has to be better training, etc...

I’d also love to see major gun control in this country. I would love to see guns banned. Period. But that’s highly unrealistic as this country tragically has a major addiction to their gun culture. Perhaps someday we’ll have some common-sense gun control again such as background checks, and high-capacity magazine and semi-automatic assault weapon bans.

MW : What was it like working with Kenneth Branagh?

BQ : I suggested Kenneth’s play “Public Enemy” to the Irish Arts Center’s Artistic Director at the time, Nye Heron, and was emailing and talking with Kenneth’s assistant quite a lot before setting up a meeting with Kenneth and Nye.

I was flying high that I helped to secure the rights to his play. Kenneth then came to our first read-through, and he came back to see a preview or two. He was an absolute prince, kind, intelligent, caring, witty.

However, this success was so bittersweet because my dad died right before we opened the play, a performance I had dedicated to him before he died (because my dad loved Jimmy Cagney, and the main character of the play was obsessed with Cagney). The play got great reviews and we ran for five months. It was so difficult for me to fully appreciate the success of this show as I was mourning the most devastating loss of my life.

MW : Which "shelved" film appearance of yours should have seen the light of day?

BQ : There’s a provocative film I am in about a racial experiment that is under the radar called, “The Suspect” (2014), which stars Mekhi Phifer, Sterling K. Brown and William Sadler.

By the way, I am currently in three indie films that I’m psyched for the world to see: I play a lead role in “Darcy” which is available (worldwide) to stream on Herflix.com; “The Garden Left Behind” has just landed international distribution, so stay tuned for the release date! And finally, I have an interesting supporting role in a film called “Tahara” which had its world premiere at Slamdance in January and is slated for more film festivals.

MW : What makes a good film/TV critic? Can you name any?

BQ : One that doesn’t give the plot, or too much dialogue away. I often don’t read reviews of films, or television shows, I want to watch because I love going in – not being influenced by another’s opinion. But sometimes, I’ll read reviews afterwards to learn more about the evolution of a film or TV show. I often find myself agreeing with A.O.Scott’s (NY Times) film reviews.

MW : How do you usually prepare for an acting role, and has a character ever taken you over?

BQ : The first thing I do is read the script several times and see what the words are telling me about the character, and how other characters view that person. If it’s a period piece, I research the era or history surrounding the event in the play, or screenplay. Eventually, I forget my research, learn my words and hopefully let the character inhabit me emotionally, physically and psychologically, spiritually etc…and try my best to be fully present with the other actors I’m working with moment-to-moment. Every project is different.

Yes, there were times, I found it difficult to shut off the pain of a character after some performances. Two that come to mind are two intensely emotional theatre roles I performed at the Repertory of St. Louis, Elizabeth Proctor in “The Crucible”, and Agnes in “Bug”.

MW : Is performing on film different to TV as an acting discipline?

BQ : I think it all depends on the style of the film, or television show. With a TV show like Law & Order, it’s formulaic and heightened realism (acting style) and so one makes sure one knows every single word, and hits one’s marks, and if it calls for emoting then one must emote! Some films I’ve done are grittier-kitchen-sink realism. A very minimalistic style of acting.

MW : Has your song-writer husband ever penned a song for you?

BQ : Yes, many….Don (Rosler) primarily writes for and with other artists – on the John Margolis: Christine’s Refrigerator CD, there’s many tunes that speak to many moments within the course of our lives: the title track (altho’ the name was changed), “Scrap of Hope” (a pep talk to me when I was stuck at a temp job I hated), “Here’s Something You Don’t See Every Day” (a wedding reverie that literally started in Don’s mind when I fell asleep on his shoulder), and he wrote an exquisite lyric for Bobby McFerrin’s Grammy-nominated record VOCAbuLarieS, a song called “Brief Eternity”… where his words infuse my love for gardening: “Working in the garden has you... ...Breathing in the bloom and then you View the sunset view to move you Close to truly understanding Life and death but nothing ending Voices living on”…..

MW : Tell me about some of your favourite music...

BQ : My music tastes are pretty eclectic – besides all the indie artists I’ve done publicity for, I love so many styles of music from classical to folk to country but here’s some of my fave artists: Tom Waits, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Pink, Beyonce, Billie Holiday, Ani DiFranco, Ibeyi, Sinead O’Connor, Prince, Bjork, Leonard Cohen, Kacey Musgraves, K.D. Lang, Laura Mvula, Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Billy Bragg, and Randy Newman, among many others.

MW : You enjoy gardening. How is yours designed and tended to?

BQ : I don’t have my very own garden. I live in NYC and dream of having a country house with a garden of my own one day!

This is the reason I started a side business of urban gardening. My dad was an extraordinary gardener and after he died, I started tending to my mother’s flower gardens. Then I found myself volunteering at a neighborhood garden and that led to me working in other people’s gardens. Primarily small back gardens and some rooftop or balcony gardens.

I specialize in flowers, shrubs and trees and love planting lots of perennials (flowers and plants) with annuals so there’s lots of varying blossoms of different heights and textures, throughout spring, summer and fall. 

When possible, if space allows, I also love incorporating foot paths, rock walls, or other elements in gardens – art/birdbaths/benches/statues that might be a sweet focal point but primarily I love the combinations of plants, trees, shrubs and flowers to be the focal points.

MW : Recommend five flowers...that every good garden should have!

BQ : Daffodils - one of the first signs of spring! Muscari (aka grape hyacinths) – the color (blue) is gorgeous, as is the scent. Climbing roses – the beauty and romantic history of roses. Anemone Robustissima (late blooming perennial flower). Lady Ferns (okay not a flower, but I’m a fern freak and I love ferns of all kinds!, but Lady ferns in particular are stunning when they sit beside most flowers or surround trees).

MW : How opinionated are you on current events? Would you like to be more, or less opinionated?

BQ : I’m extremely opinionated on current events but find it difficult to find ways to communicate my thoughts without screaming angrily from the rooftops and then of course not being heard. There are those that say we have an obligation to try to talk sense into people whose viewpoints are much more extreme than one’s own (either extreme conservative or extreme liberal). 

I’m very liberal but am more pragmatic when it comes to progress, not perfection, so I’m very happy to enthusiastically vote for someone like Joe Biden or in 2016, Hillary Clinton, but I honestly don’t know how to reach people whose minds are already made up – people who either continue to justify their support for the current racist/narcissist/sexist/pathological liar-in-chief, or that justify their “protest” vote by falsely equivocating both candidates as “the same” or “the lesser of two evils”.

So yeah, I offend people at times because yes, I’m judgmental when it comes to politics and I most definitely believe in the power of protests, but believe just as strongly in the collective power of one’s vote and it drives me insane when others don’t show up and vote for local elections, and national ones.

I find I do hold back on Facebook, not because I’m afraid to voice my opinions but because it becomes too much of a time suck for me.

MW : What character traits frustrate you?

BQ : Impatience (in myself). Aggression (in myself and others).

MW : What’s the kindest thing another person has done for you?

BQ : I find this question so complex to answer. There are so many inexplicable moments in my life, where I’ve been blown away by many seemingly small gestures or kind words from strangers. And professionally, I’ve been truly blessed to work with some top-notch directors that gave me the gift of encouraging me to fully trust my artistic instincts.

When I was a child, my parents were not the type of people who conveyed their love in typically demonstrative ways, in ways that I honestly craved, so on the rare occasions when either one of them did utter something like “We’re proud of you”, or “I love you”, I was very moved by them going past their own comfort zones to express that kind of sentiment!

I’ve had many personal and professional challenges in my life and many of my siblings have been there for me over the years in ways I can’t really articulate without choking up. I also think having the courage to face one’s disagreements and past hurt, which comes with the territory of most friendships and relationships, is an act of kindness that I most value. Those I feel closest to have stuck it through with me by navigating through some painful, complex and messy misunderstandings. I’ll never forget those acts of kindness and generosity.

MW : What have you lost, growing older... and gained?

BQ : My mom died in January, and as I mentioned, my dad died many years ago. Sometimes I feel the depths of that loss – the fact that I don’t have my parents to share the ups and downs of the events of the rest of my life. Of course, I do have them close to my heart and their spirits live on….but damn I miss them! I’ve definitely gained a profound appreciation for them and their influence on me in countless ways.

On a professional level, as an older actress, unfortunately it’s easy to become invisible but I’m not ready to disappear and am joining the fight against ageism! I’m drawn to stories and filmmakers that include women and men of all ages, genders and ethnicities.

Perhaps if enough roles are not forthcoming in the next number of years, I’ll venture into writing and directing at some point.

MW : Where can we find out more / keep in touch?

BQ : Thanks so much, here’s a few links…!

Now Available on my blog: The Complete Sanders Sides Spotify Playlist Breakdown

I purposely ordered these songs in the way they appear. And if you can play it off shuffle, I would encourage you to do so. Placing songs from the Q&A at the beginning and the songs with which I chose to end each playlist were not placed where they were accidentally by any means. But there is a method to my madness. I realise that many of you don’t have Premium and will only be able to play them on shuffle.

Some songs on these playlists just spoke to me, others I had to think about before adding. After each Blurb explaining the playlist, I’ve added links to them, so you don’t have to hunt them down. Hope you enjoy listening to them because they were fun to make.

-Kt💗

[You can either click here to be taken to the page or keep reading below the cut]

Thomas - Most of the songs appearing on his playlist are songs that Thomas has covered. Some of the songs also appear on the Sides playlists. They are his Sides Afterall, so it only makes sense that they share some songs. {Link}

Orange Colored Sky {Nat King Cole} – Thomas has stated this to be one of his favourite songs. It had to be the first song.

Snow In Venice {Elizaveta} – Thomas’s cover of this song has got to be one of my favourites so it seemed only right.

Fly Me To The Moon {Frank Sinatra} – He covered it.

Love Like You (End Credits) {Rebecca Sugar} – It’s SU!

My Dragon Pal and Me {Cast of Galavant} – King Richard sometimes reminds me of Thomas. This song in particular.

Freeze Your Brain {Original World Premier Cast} – HE WAS JD IN HEATHERS: THE MUSICAL (the Orlando Production)

Waving Through A Window {Ben Platt} – He covered it.

We Are The Crystal Gems (Full Theme Song) {ZachCallison}

Welcome to the Black Parade {My Chemical Romance} – He covered it.

Guns and Ships {Original Broadway Cast}

Feels Like Summer {panama Wedding}

It’s Over Isn’t It {Deedee Madno Hall} – This has got to be another favourite song he’s covered.

Sick Muse {Metric}

Bubble Gum {Brigitte Bardot} – j’avais besoin d’ajouter une chanson en français.

Colors {Honest Men}

I Found You {Fraser Murray}

Here Comes A Thought {Estelle} – HOW ARE THOMAS’S SU COVERS SO GOOD?

Seventeen {Original World Premier Cast} – I think he and Nicole are better. But here’s the original.

Anything Vine Can Do, YouTube Can Do Better {Jon Cozart} – Thomas actually sings in this one, so …

Let’s Face It I’m Cute {11 Acorn Lane} – Thomas is cute.

Seasons Of Love {Original Broadway Cast}

Here {Alessia Cara} – the social anxiety and introversion he talks about.

Bueberry Hill {Louis Armstrong}

YouTube Culture {Jon Cozart}

Little Game {Benny}

Absolutely Smitten {dodie}

Dead Disco {Metric}

What A Wonderful World {Louis Armstrong}

Goodnight My Friend {Cast of Galavant}

Logan - This was the most difficult playlist for me to compile. Anxiety’s was easy because I stuck to a few artists and Patton and Morality each had a specific tone I was following. But I am least confident in this playlist. Anyway, most of the songs in this playlist relate to Logan more in their titles than in their tone. I tried to have mostly jazz and hip-hop genres, but I’m not sure I was very successful in that. In short, his songs mostly relate to his struggles to empathise and understand emotion. {Link}

Comfortably Numb {Pink Floyd} – Logan used this song to describe how he was feeling in the Q&A.

Immortals {Fall Out Boy} – this is a song from Logan’s favourite Disney film.

Achilles Last Stand {Led Zeppelin} – Mythology, literature, etc.

White & Nerdy {“Weird Al” Yankovic} – Logan’s a big ol’ nerd. And we love him for it.

The Meaning of Life {Monty Python} – Seems like something Logan would ponder.

What Am I Feeling {Cast of Galavant} – He doesn’t understand emotions.

Somethin’ Stupid {Frank Sinatra} – title more than meaning.

Another Brick In The Wall {Pink Floyd} – “Don’t Need No” is a double negative and I feel like that would bug him and I’d assume that’s why he’d want this kids to be educated.

Guns and Ships {Original Broadway Cast} – Logan can rap.

Blow Us All Away {Original Broadway Cast} – Ibid.

Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien {Édith Piaf} – Nah, he doesn’t regret anything *cough* infinitesimal *cough* Nothing.

You Oughta Know {Alanis Morisette}

I Wish I Knew Better {Owen Danoff}

Jamais seule {Loane} – Never alone. Not when he has books.

All of Me {Billie Holiday}

Education {Pearl Jam}

Word Crimes {“Weird Al” Yankovic}

Emotions {Evence} – no lyrics, because songs without lyrics are more confusing … like emotions.

I Don’t Like You {Cast of Galavant} – How he feels about Roman … probably.

Hit The Road Jack {Ray Charles} – again probably directed at Roman or Patton

Dance Off {Macklemore & Ryan Lewis}

Almost Like Being In Love {Nat King Cole} – ALMOST

Bohemian Rhapsody {Queen}

As Good As It Gets {Cast of Galavant} – he’s a realist

Galaxy Song {Monty Python} – That ending though.

Patton - Patton’s playlist was fun. I wanted it to be both parental (hence songs like “Que Sera Sera”) but also childish (hence the songs from kids shows and Disney films). I wanted it to play off the duality of Patton both being the parental side yet also being the most innocent/naïve of the group as well. I wanted his playlist to be very fun and playful. As such, I didn’t pay too much attention to the genre of the songs, I just wanted to be sure they were upbeat. {Link}

I Am The Walrus {The Beatles} – Patton used this song to describe how he was feeling in the Q&A.

Campfire Song Song {Spongebob Squarepants} – He pretty much just listens to it on repeat.

Winnie the Pooh {Disney Studio Chorus}

The Bare Necessities {Phil Harris and Bruce Reitherman}

He Mele No Lilo {Mark Keali’I Ho’omalu and Kamehameha Schools Children’s Chorus}

Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride {Mark Keali’I Ho’omalu and Kamehameha Schools Children’s Chorus}

Steven Universe Theme Song {Giant Woman}

Pennies From Heaven {Louis Prima}

A Spoonful or Sugar {Julie Andrews}

Fly Me To The Moon {Frank Sinatra}

Beauty {Original Cast of Starship}

Pays to Bean Animal {Team StarKid}

La vie en rose {Édith Piaf} – I feel like the English version of this song is much more sombre than the French one and that’s why I put the French version on Patton’s playlist

Stadium Love {Metric}

Simple Song {The Shins}

You Make Me Feel So Young {Frank Sinatra}

Dream A Little Dream Of Me {Eliza Fitzgerald}

Angel Dance {Robert Plant}

Ironic {Alanis Morisette} – Because, the only ironic thing about this song is that the lyrics have nothing to do with irony. Reminds me of Patton’s use of “adultery.”

Je Ne Sais Pas {Joyce Jonathan} – Literally, the titles is I Don’t Know, and if that ain’t Patton.

1234 {Feist} – Almost put this on Logan’s playlist. But Feist counts “1234,56, 9 and 10” where did 7 and 8 go? Because of that, I felt this song was better suited to Patton.

The Moss {Cosmo Sheldrake} – this would work for Roman too, but I imagine it more as a parent telling a story than a knight living the story.

Ramble On {Led Zeppelin}

Feels Like Summer {Panama Wedding}

Que Sera, Sera {Sly & The Family Stone} – Because this song is so parental and I’m a sucker for Heathers. Syd Straw’s version is my favourite, but it’s not available here, so I went for the version at the end of the film.

Roman - Disney, you guys, Disney. So, Roman’s playlist had to be both filled with Disney and be as theatrical as he is. His playlist comprises of songs from the Disney Princess lineup (not necessarily a song sung by the princess) in chronological order as well as show tunes. Roman is Thomas’s fanciful Sides, so it seemed only natural to include soundtracks from musicals (whether film, television, or stage) as well as to includes songs focusing on the self and one’s dreams. {Link}

All I Do Is Win {DJ Khaled} – Roman used this song to describe how he was feeling in the Q&A.

Halo {Beyoncé} – His favourite “band”

Some Day My Prince Will Come {Adriana Caselotti}

A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes {Ilene Woods}

An Unusual Prince/Once Upon A Dream {Mary Costa}

Part Of Your World {Jodi Benson}

Beauty And The Beast {Angela Lansbury}

One Jump Ahead {Brad Kane}

Colors Of The Wind {Judy Kuhn}

I’ll Make a Man Out of You {Donny Osmund}

Almost There {Anika Noni Rose}

I See the Light {Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi}

Touch The Sky {Julie Fowlis}

Love Is an Open Door {Kristen Bell and Santino Fontana}

How Far I’ll Go {Auli’i Cravalho}

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious {Julie Andrews}

Freeze Your Brain {Original World Premier Cast}

My Shot {Original Broadway Cast}

For Forever {Ben Platt}

I’m Too Sexy {Right Said Fred} – OK, but like seriously. This is such a Roman song.

Ma Pomme {Maurice Chevalier} – mostly for this line “J'suis plus heureux qu'un roi”

Dreams {The Cranberries}

My Way {Frank Sinatra} – C’mon

Orange Colored Sky {Nat King Cole}

Virgil - The songs on this playlist are in the emo, rock, and punk genres for the most part. I also think this playlist has the least variety of artist, the reason for this being when one is in an emotional state, one is more likely to listen to familiar songs. Songs the person is used to and songs that comfort them. As such, Anxiety’s playlist changes between a few repeated artists. {Link}

I’m Not Okay (I Promise) {My Chemical Romance} – Anxiety used this song to describe how he was feeling in the Q&A.

Taking Over Me {Evanescence} – This is a song from his favourite band.

Don’t Threaten Me With A Good Time {Panic! At The Disco} – It’s full of angst. What else can I say?

Stressed Out {Twenty One Pilots} – He is anxiety personified after all.

Don’t Let Me Get Me {Pink}

Basket Case {Green Day}  

Paranoid {Black Sabbath}

Dazed and Confused {Led Zeppelin}

Fallen Leaves {Billy Talent}

Call Me When You’re Sober {Evanescence}

Welcome To The Black Parade {MCR} - He/Thomas sang this song on snapchat. So, I had to.

Heavydirtysoul {TOP}

Bring Me To Life {Evanescence}

Welcome To My Life {Simple Plan}

This Is Gospel {Panic! At The Disco}

Gimme Sympathy {Metric}  – He wants to be understood by the other Sides. He wants sympathy.

Goner {TOP}

Red Flag {Billy Talent}

Teenagers {MCR}

Haunted {Evanescence}

Just Like a Pill {Pink}

I Write Sins Not Tragedies {Panic! At The Disco}

Devil In A Midnight Mass {Billy Talent}

Help I’m Alive {Metric}

Good Riddance {Green Day} – it felt only appropriate to end his playlist with a song with such title.

expanded definitions:

  All of the following should be able to pass the Turing test,  and should be/have been (at the minimum in their original forms) products of human or alien intelligence.  "Standard" definitions of intelligence apply.

 androids (A) - robots in humanoid form, these can be mechanical and/or organic (_Do androids Dream of Electric Sheep_).

 computer systems (C) - these range in size and type from a fair sized mini computer (_Ariel_) to an planetary

     computer (_Colossus_) to a galactic network with one  single mind (_Speaker for the Dead_).

 humans in computerized/program/digitized form (H) - these tend to be copies of people which only exist in computerized form - such as the hacker in (_Neuromancer_) and folks of City Memory in (_Eon_).

 non-mechanical, human created intelligences (N) - beings  which have been (in most cases) genetically altered or are biological (_Blood Music_).  NOT forced evolution 

 other intelligences (O) - beings which are difficult to categorize: anything Berserker, tanks, books, planets,  planets (Asimov's Gaia), satellites, etc.  Where (O) is used, the particular form has also been named when known.

 programs (P) - able to move independently from one computer system to another, usually created by a program(mer) _The Adolescence or P1_).

 robots (R) - constitute functional and specialized beings which are mobile and are not (S) or (P).  Anything between vaguely humanoid (Dr. Who's Cybermen) and computers on wheels (R2D2) can be considered robots of the 'functional'  robot class.  'Specialized' robots are those which are geared/optimized to performing one job - they can look like  either androids (The Terminator) or functional robots (Val's  from _Pirates of the Thunder_).

 ships/computer systems (S) - essentially an (A) which is only mobile in the form of a (star) ship (_Pirates of the Thunder_). However, there are cases where the (S) is essentially a well programmed (R) which is only mobile as stated (_The Number of the Beast_).

 cyborgs/mechanical humans (Y) - strictly speaking these are not  AI. The definition here is that the (Y) is either (1) a human  brain in control of a computer system/star ship (_The Ship Who Sang_) where at the very least the person's brain has  been modified to contain computerized parts (_The Rapture Effect?_) (Did you ever wish that you could have a math co-processor?). (Y)'s are NOT (for the purpose of this  list) organic beings whose natural body parts have beenreplaced by mechanical ones (ie. Luke Skywalker after his forearm was severed, or bionic people). unsure/no idea (?) - just what it says, so someone PLEASE read  it and tell me what type is is and whether it belongs here. 

evolved AI being (e) - usually begin as man-made devices hich then develop intelligence on their own (_Valentina_).

The 1977 film Saturday Night Fever was a smash hit. Based on a 1995 New York Magazine article, Nik Cohn’s “Tribal Rites of a Saturday Night” (which Cohn admitted years later to be fictional), the film propelled John Travolta into stardom, and became the best-selling dance-centered movie of all time until 2010’s Black Swan.

Directed by John Badham with a screenplay by Norman Wexler, and music by the Bee Gees (one of the best-selling soundtracks of all time), it’s not difficult to understand the well-deserved success of the movie. The Bee Gees were commissioned by producer Robert Stigwood to write songs for the film. Not terribly well known at the time, the group created some of the songs during a single weekend, and gathered some songs they’d already written to add to the mix. “Stayin’ Alive” had already been written, and was one of the first songs ready to be used in the film. “Stayin’ Alive” will undoubtedly be forever associated with the movie, in no small part thanks to the movie’s stunning opening sequence.

 The stage musical of Saturday Night Fever, with a book by Nan Knighton in collaboration with Arlene Phillips, Paul Nicholas, and Robert Stigwood, and music by the Bee Gees, opened in London in 1998, and on Broadway the following year. It is now playing at Chatham, NY’s Mac-Haydn Theatre, directed by John Saunders.

The show opens with “Stayin’ Alive,” too, and in this production, the number falls flat. While James Kinney usually does a superb job choreographing the excellent dancers who grace the Mac-Haydn’s round stage, in this attempt to recreate the busy thoroughfare (86th Street in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn), the chorus walks across the stage and back in “X” formation, bumping into each other (intentionally or accidentally, I couldn’t tell), and the effect is merely one of too many people crammed in too small a space. (Happily, Kinney more than redeems himself later.)

 As Tony Manero, the role originated by Travolta on screen, Daniel Velasquez is very attractive and gifted with a lovely singing voice. Unfortunately, when he is speaking, he frequently sounded as if he were doing a John Travolta impression down to the cadence, and the effect is disruptive; we don’t know where Tony is. It pulls us out of the play. By the end, though, I was gratified that he had stopped impersonating and became his own Tony, Brooklyn accent intact.

 What is terrific about this production are the scenes in the disco club 2001 Odyssey. Lighting designer Andrew Gmoser, scenic designer Kevin Gleason, sound designer Ethan Carleton, choreographer Kinney, and director Saunders have collaborated to transform the entire theater into an authentic disco complete with mirrored disco ball. The lighting design was so successful that it felt as if the audience were right in the club, amid flashing lights and nimble, gyrating dancers.

 I’ve written before about my personal distaste for mic’ing actors, especially in a small theater, but the mics, at least in the particular way they were used in this show, created a serious problem that was impossible to overlook. Early in the show, Tony has an undressing sequence in which he faces a mirror, preening and dancing. The headset part of the mic is usually visible to the audience because of its placement on the actor’s head and face. The body pack transmitter that goes with it is hidden under the actor’s costume. When Mr. Velasquez stripped down to his tight black briefs, his body pack transmitter, roughly the size of two stacked decks of cards, was an abundantly visible protrusion beneath his briefs at the approximate area of his coccyx. At this point Mr. Velasquez was heartily bumping, grinding, and shimmying. To my mind, there was no justification for the placement of that body pack. I felt badly for the actor. The sequence had me cringing, and was at once embarrassing and silly.

 From that point on, I couldn’t help but notice the body packs bulging through most of the cast’s costumes. This was certainly no fault of costume designer Angela Carstensten, who did a fine job clothing the cast. Disco-era clothing is sleek and body-hugging, and I wish that someone either did away with the body packs or devised a better way to disguise them. Certainly, if one was to be placed in Mr. Velasquez’s briefs, he should not have had to strip down to them.

 The production boasts a fine group of actors, singers, and dancers, including Kate Zulauf (Stephanie Mangano), Gabe Belyeu (Monty), belter extraordinaire Aneesa Folds (Candy), and Sophia Tsougros (Annette). As Tony’s parents Frank and Flo, Pat Wemitt and Erin Spears Ledford were well cast, except that Miss Ledford looked far too young to be Tony’s mother, a problem that can easily be fixed with makeup.

My biggest complaint about the stage version of Saturday Night Fever is not about the Mac-Haydn production, but about the script itself. It completely lacks the pathos that was so abundant in the film. That the actors sing the songs from the film disrupts characterization. It is not a film that adapts well to the stage.

It is however, entertaining, and the audience members left the theater delighted. I heard many people exclaim that they had great fun watching the show. If you can go without any expectation that Saturday Night Fever meets the standards of the movie, you’ll find lots to enjoy.

Saturday Night Fever runs July 6-23, 2017, at the Mac-Haydn Theatre, 1925 NY Route 203 in Chatham, NY. Book by Nan Knighton in collaboration with Arlene Phillips, Paul Nicholas, and Robert Stigwood. Music by the Bee Gees (Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb.) Directed by John Saunders; Lighting designer Andrew Gmoser; scenic designer Kevin Gleason; sound designer Ethan Carleton; choreographer James Kinney; costume designer Angela Carstensten. CAST: Daniel Velasquez (Tony Manero), Kate Zulauf (Stephanie Mangano), Gabe Belyeu (Monty), Aneesa Folds (Candy), Sophia Tsougros (Annette), Pat Wemitt (Frank Manero), Erin Spears Ledford (Flo Manero), Dan Macke (Bobby), Sam Pickart (Gus), Ross Flores (Double-J), Alex Carr (Joey), Quinn Corcoran (Frank Manero, Jr.), Laura Michele Erle (Pauline), Lauren Wrigley (Linda Manero), Dakota Dutcher (salesman/Jay/Joseph Cursa), Bryce McAllister (Stephanie’s Dance Partner/Cesar Rodriguez), Stephen C. Kallas (Gabriel), Connor Hubbard (Chester Brinson), Megan Hasse (Stayin’ Alive Girl/Shirley Charles), Catherine Skojec (Doreen/Elizabeth Cursa), Katie Skawski (Girl), Michelle Carter (Waitress), Kelly Gabrielle Murphy (Connie), and Steffany Pratt (Maria Huerta).

REVIEW: “Saturday Night Fever” at the Mac-Haydn by Roseann Cane The 1977 film Saturday Night Fever was a smash hit.
