rumpo MADNESS: so what's the name of the instrumental from "Requiem"? The one they used in the Two Towers trailer?
sambluestone3383: the artist is Clint Mansell and the Kronos Quartet, but it's sometimes under Lord of the Rings, or Two Towers trailer, or Requiem for a Dream remix
sambluestone3383: it's around 6 min 30 sec
rumpo MADNESS: coolies
rumpo MADNESS: and got it! Whee!
rumpo MADNESS: it'll be a nice contrast to the John Denver and the Muppets I am now listening to
sambluestone3383: hahaha
rumpo MADNESS: *sniff* I love you Rowlf, but we must fight to the death.
rumpo MADNESS: ORCS!
sambluestone3383: Wait'll you actually see Requiem. OOH! That is SO going on our short list for movie night
sambluestone3383: the three of us.
sambluestone3383: yes
rumpo MADNESS: fair enough
sambluestone3383: then the visual will be man-eating fridges and Jennifer Connelly fucking a double dildo to the pleasure of the voiceover guy for "Navy: Accelerate your life" and the fight scene in "They Live"
rumpo MADNESS: LOL
rumpo MADNESS: David Keith?
sambluestone3383: yep!
sambluestone3383: No, no!
sambluestone3383: Keith David!
rumpo MADNESS: shit
sambluestone3383: David Keith is a whole other actor!
rumpo MADNESS: I knew I'd get it wrong
sambluestone3383: A real dude too
rumpo MADNESS: you don't say
sambluestone3383: yep! He was the Dad in Daredevil, a total B-movie actor. Looks like his head is made of fist
rumpo MADNESS: LOL

Seriously, though, that remix of the "Requiem for a Dream" theme used in the LOTR: TTT trailer is one of the most asskicking pieces of music I've ever heard. I *so* want to have a swordfight in a clocktower during a thunderstorm to that music.

















Many thanks to Mikey and a polite shout-out to Kevin.



Finally, I have no words for this. No words at all.

I've got one word for that link: "Neutered!"

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

It's like his bush is so thick and matted down so as to give him a hairy, strapless thong.

Speaking of which, did you click to enlarge the image? You could see his ass too.

Oh god Hank put something on. Even those stupid little pants you wear in "Astonishing" would be okay.
That second one is a keeper.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Me in the frilly shirt, eh? That was me working my inner Hugh Laurie as Sir Andrew Aguecheek in TWELFTH NIGHT.

[cavenessity.livejournal.com]

Nice posters. Consider me inspired ;)

Man, if I had to be stuck on a desert island with only one movie soundtrack (or any CD for that matter) to listen to, it'd be the soundtrack to Requiem for a Dream (and if they let me sneak in another CD, the second one would be Mind: TPI by Skinny Puppy ;p). I would certainly not kick the Kronos Quartet out of bed for eating crackers.

Lord, I'd hate to see what horrors I'll have spurned on!

Did you see THE FOUNTAIN? I think it's his/their masterpiece. Or at least, so far. That movie and PAN'S LABYRINTH are my two favorite movies all year, and both have soundtracks that are not only awesome, but so deeply intertwined with the films themselves.

And yes, I too adore the Requiem for a soundtrack. Throw in the 6-minute LOTR full-blown orchestral version of the theme at the very end, and I am done, girl.

And once again my words belong to the ages. At least I was sober. Which reminds me, there IS a bottle of Bacardi in the freezer down the hall from my cubicle. Why that is so, I may never know.

Hey, where did everybody go?

Keith David does do some good VA, I've only seen one ep of Gargoyles but he was great in that and there was of course him voicing Despero on Justice League which was also quite great, his VA was one of the two highlights of the episode (the other of course being Kilowog). He and David Keith need to fight.

*SAVES EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE MOTIVATIONAL POSTERS*

I'm so posting these. AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I'd actually like you to tell us where and when each picture was taken, and what the story was behind them.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

The first and last were when I was tending bar at my grandmother's birthday party at our home back in November. I decided that would be an ideal time to bust out my Hugh Hefner jacket that I bought with Bloo in Chicago (she was disappointed that the clerks who said, "Oh, getting the Hefner jacket, eh?" didn't look at the name on my credit card so I could have told them my blood relation... I don't make it a point to just bring it up to people).

The second one is from the Rude Mechanicals' production of TWELFTH NIGHT, wherein I worked my inner Hugh Laurie and played the dream role of Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Check out the website for more pictures of young, young me.

The third and fifth are from my final college show wherein I played the title role in TARTUFFE. In case you don't know, Tartuffe is about a con artist who's swindled his way into a wealthy household posing as a holy man. Full photo gallery can be found here!

Funny story about the second one of me on the table? In that scene, the wife is trying to seduce me while her husband hides under the table, therefore to expose me as the fraud that I am. So I lift up my frock, exposing my pale, pale legs, and throw her on the table as I prepare to hump the living daylights out of her, which is when her husband bursts out.

Well, this one night, when the photographer was there, we were doing the scene as usual when the table broke. One of the legs, specifically, snapping from under us. But we just plow ahead as the photographer takes the pics. So my face there is a mixture of my horror at being discovered and trying to supress laughter.

As for the centipedes one, that's the photo I use for my headshots. And I presume you know where the joke comes from, yes?

Finally, the "may contain nuts" one was one I took after I was at the gym, sweatty and rumpled, and I realized that I could pull off a pretty mean Jack Nicholson picture. It's so bittersweet to think that that was the very picture of me that Bloo kept in her wallet to show her friends. Or at least, that was her stated intention. Only fitting, as the picture of carried around of her for the longest time was just of her butt.

[kali921.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm still using them, though. >_>

Are you, indeed, a blood relation of Mr. Hefner? I thought that was all a pipe dream...

This is not to say, of course, that you aren't more Hugh Hefner than Hugh Hefner.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

I had not told you about that yet? I don't make it a point to bring it up to people unless they ask first, but by now I thought it was pretty well common knowledge. He's my father's cousin. I actually have a story about the time I met him too, at the Mansion, no less.

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

umm.. did you not see the link the naked BEAST?

ok, his giblets are gone.. but still.

its naked Hank, Annie.

Awesome

[marred82.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you found use for some of the taglines I gave you. Perfect picture for the "may contain nuts". I applaud you.

Re: Awesome

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

I dunno, I kinda think it woulda worked for the Tartuffe-on-the-table pic too.

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

Heffie: this movie has David Keith?

Danny: yeah, but it doesnt have Keith David.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Exactly what was going through my head during the conversation I had with Kevin last night.

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

awesome.
