Happy Birthday, Peter O'Toole
Posted on 08.02.07 by Widge @ 9:01 pm

There are so many performances from Peter that we love. It's hard to choose one. I had originally considered something from My Favorite Year, but unable to find anything online for it I went with the film that's my #1 favorite when it comes to badass dialogue: The Lion in Winter. O'Toole at the top of his game, plus Katharine Hepburn, Anthony Hopkins and the screen debut of Timothy Dalton. Here's a little bit of just about everybody:

And a great O'Toole moment comes after the break...

Happy Birthday, Dom DeLuise

You know, I tried to find a nice, long clip to summarize why we love you, Dom. But, honestly, I think this bit says it all.

Warning: Clown Week
Posted on 08.01.07 by Widge @ 6:44 am

That's right, folks. The clown shenanigans we previously hinted to might just be here, because August 1-7 is officially Clown Week. No, really, check it out.

Just remember, clowns can be scary, scary things. Please take note of the following instructional video.

Wait, sorry, that's the wrong one. The real instructional video's after the break.

Happy Birthday, Lynda Carter

Ah, Lynda. Not only are you beautiful, not only can you deflect bullets and fly an invisible plane, but you can also sing and dodge Muppets.

Sigh. What a gal.

And...oh, all right, it's after the break.

Happy Birthday, Terence Stamp

Thanks for General Zod, first of all. I mean, we are all geeks here. So. You knew that was coming.

I'm one of five people on the planet who liked Superman 2 better than the original. Just because I loved the idea of a three on one Kryptonian throwdown. And Stamp is the guy who sold it.

Of course, he's done plenty beyond that. My favorite in recent memory is Steven Soderbergh's little seen The Limey. I couldn't find the bit online where he gets kicked out of a place and stomped a bit, then has them say hello to his very little friend (which I loved), but after the break is another bit that's almost as good. Sorry for the subtitles.
