I remember seeing this Little Rascals short on television as a kid. It's really funny, but incredibly, OH MY GOD, racist, even for the time when I was watching it. Nevertheless, today, I feel like it deserves to be seen because it represents the most memorable performance of John Lester Johnson, as "THE WILD MAN OF BORNEO".

Johnson had been a boxer who actually beat Jack Dempsey (then an unknown) in the first integrated boxing event in 1917, although some of the papers of the time refused to acknowledge Johnson's win. He went on to a career in Hollywood, where he played a series of characters, mostly with names like "Butler" and "Nubian Slave". Racism kept John Lester Johnson from doing much decent acting work, and it would be tragic if a reaction against racism meant that the little bit of decent acting work he was permitted, and, in my opinion, a sly and nuanced comic performance, were to be lost to history.</div>

When someone dies at 96, it's not that unexpected, yet some people have been around so long they seem like they should be immortal. These clips , shich span more than 50 years, should give you an idea of how broad and and varied Don Pardo's career was. This is all stuff I found on you tube, yet a lot of it is video that I actually watched years ago, back when it was live TV. The editing style is rough and ugly.

<blockquote>"A little song, a little dance, a little seltzer in the pants."</blockquote>
A classic scene about laughter and death. I think this is the kind of tribute he would have appreciated. To be honest, I hated many of Robin Williams' movies, yet I am deeply saddened by the loss of this deeply humane artist whose persona was too big for any human role, especially in these circumstances.

This was released to theaters in the year my father was born, but in the sixties, I managed to watch every single episode on New York's channel 11. Forget Kurosawa. Forget Joseph Campbell. <i>This</i> was the real inspiration for <i>Star Wars</i>!<br />
<br />
The Star of <i>Flash Gordon</i> was Clarence Linden "Buster" Crabbe, a handsome and likable actor who first became famous as an Olympic athlete. In 1932, he took the gold medal for freestyle swimming.
I remember that in the 70s, in the New York market, Buster Crabbe appeared in a frequently-recurring commercial where he hawked some kind of exercise equipment. I couldn't find that on YouTube, but I found these:<br />

The fiftieth anniversary of the sixties is well underway. Starting, I suppose, with last year's 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights march on Washington and then the Kennedy Assasination, followed by the Beatles on Ed Sullivan, and the signing of important civil rights legislation by Lyndon Johnson in early 1964. As these events are observed, we're starting to get a real-time demonstration of just how fast events followed one another during those days.<br><br>
This week was the anniversary of the opening of the 1964 New York World's Fair, which was certainly a big deal at the time, though I was six at the time. The symbol of the fair was the Unisphere. You saw it everywhere back then, a huge stainless steel globe. It's still <a href="http://tinyurl.com/n532ws5">there</a>, in Corona Park, in the borough of Queens. It was restored in the early nineties. Not long ago it was used as a location for an episode of Law and Order Criminal intent, and the scene of a murder.<br><br>

Following a London West End run in December 2007, a sold-out limited engagement at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in March 2008, and an eight-week run on Broadway, director Rupert Goold's stage production of Macbeth was filmed for television at the end of 2009 with Patrick Stewart in his Tony-nominated performance as the ambitious general, and Tony-nominated Kate Fleetwood as his scheming wife. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaZlBei1gHpkqEwaRcRmNZmKOZhdq839s_entZPiCXIgUkWhiQV1EM8F3CXLSeSgNP4B2_T3c0HcxJ6wNYJJHlCxkDOVYnaoNyenzBWrIKW4gZ8H3VcpKgED3IhIkvsVD8OGDHajOGWiYK/s1600/macbeth_patrick_stewart_2_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaZlBei1gHpkqEwaRcRmNZmKOZhdq839s_entZPiCXIgUkWhiQV1EM8F3CXLSeSgNP4B2_T3c0HcxJ6wNYJJHlCxkDOVYnaoNyenzBWrIKW4gZ8H3VcpKgED3IhIkvsVD8OGDHajOGWiYK/s640/macbeth_patrick_stewart_2_2.jpg" /></a></div>FelixRayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08237688233280082133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870588519303250969.post-45195091583499274962014-04-22T15:42:00.000-07:002014-04-22T15:50:25.693-07:00Catie Wayne on Anyhoo: Can You Butt-Chug Powdered Alcohol? <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/OT7RnA6OLBE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
<br />
Can someone love Catie Wayne TOO MUCH? Ask anyone who knows me. The answer, clearly, is "YES", but fuck it. Some things are worth being the fool.<br />
<br />
I may love Catie on this channel (she's got six now) most of all. It's fast paced, it's structured, it's funny, and it's not cute like WGB, which I also love, but I love this more. You watch a bunch of WGBs in a row, it feels like she's doing a shitick, but Catie on Anyhoo is just good material done right. This is so perfect that I can't stop watching it.<br />
<br />
It may be neglected with all the attention given to her other channels, with the big rollout of Fandom Beat tied to a Brony Convention, and the popularity of <i>Weird Gross, and Beautiful</i>. Also, this isn't exclusively her channel, so finding the videos with Catie on them may be a chore for her fans.<br />
<br />
I think this is more scripted than her "Weird, Gross, and Beautiful" animal vlogs, and if it's not her that's writing it, it's someone who knows how to write for her. Next time I get to ask her a question, it'll probably be about how these are written. I was apprehensive about Catie signing with a network. You hear horror stories, and I hope she got lawyered up, but it seems she's definitely making the most of it. She's far more prolific. Now it seems like she's putting out MORE than a video a day. Compared to the surprising stuff she that was doing last year, there's something raw and intimate that's lost in these polished professional videos, but there's plenty that's gained. She's still the same girl, she'll be able to draw on that powerful personal connection later, and she's left behind a wealth of material in anewhoppeee. Like the early Boxxy, like the old hairstyle, people say they "miss" the homemade Catie, but she's still right there in youtube where she's always been. Catie's learning how to be professional now, and as she would say, she's NAILING IT! Three years from now she'll be 25, which is still really young, and she'll be doing something completely different, with completely different hair. People need to stop wish she was still doing the last thing, and wait for the next wonderful surprise.<br />
<br />
Regarding her recent hair change. The previous hairstyle was great, it was distinctive, it was a signature look, I'm glad it made the T shirts, but o god she looks so CUTE now!<br />

The cutest girl on the internet is also one of the smartest. Except that she's a <i>woman</i>, derp.<BR><BR>
Sure, her liquid brown eyes and ever-changing face make my heart hurt from time to time, but that just proves I've got a heart. The main reason why I'm obsessed with Catie Wayne is because <i>I'm obsessed with the internet!</i> I don't know of a better internet story, and it's still unfolding. It was the saddest story I'd ever heard, but now it's a happy story, because of Catie. Once upon a time, I wanted to help her, and i would have done anything to be her hero, but she became my hero, and that worked out a whole lot better all around, except then she became <i>my heroin.</i><br />
<br />
Back in the bad old days of 2010, somebody wrote in Boxxy's youtube comments: "I go to school with this girl, and believe it or not, in real life, she's incredibly mellow". And though back then, "Boxxy" was just a sad beguiling mystery (I may not have even known her name) it struck me as something someone wouldn't make up. Now that I sort of know Catie Wayne, the two words that describe her best to me are <i>"Quiet authority.</i>" She never reacts, she always acts... at the right time and in the right way. There's nothing about her I admire more. Everybody on the whole fucking internet is a compulsive reactor.<br />
<br />
Anybody who really wants to understand this statement need only take a close look at "Catie Reacts to You Tubers React to Boxxy" which was released a year ago yesterday. In terms of her career on youtube, this is her most important video on the anewhopeee channel.
It was Catie's big break, but it wasn't just handed to her. It was the perfect example of "luck is what happens when preparedness meets opportunity." And a big part of that was recognizing the opportunity when the Fine Brothers released YouTubers React to Boxxy.<br />
<br />
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/kWfugpo1viw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /><br />
As a fan of Catie, the "Youtubers React to Boxxy" video really pissed me off. Let's face it, for most people, early Boxxy is difficult content, and most of these youtubers didn't know what they were looking at, and some of them chose to mock here lest they appear unclever. It was another adult fan of Catie, @rxcd, who summed it up perfectly for me: "It made you want to punch some people". He didn't mention any names, but I would have mentioned Tay Zonday and Shane Dawson.
Tay Zonday's remark about "Sexual attractiveness minus quality content" wasn't offensive to me because he didn't like Boxxy. To be honest, I didn't like Boxxy the first time I saw her, but the way he talked about sexual attractiveness, almost as if it was part of a conscious formula, was not only dismissive, it was stupid. People had dismissed Boxxy's magic as being mere sex before, but this was a girl in a shapeless black T-shirt, being shot from the neck up. I'm not saying that she wasn't sexually attractive, but if she was, as modest as she was, it was for reasons having <u>everything</u> to do with <i>quality content</i>. <br />
<br />
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/pA_ntCd4ESA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />
<br />
I posted an essay in my BOXXOLOGY blog about how the YOUTUBERS REACT series was a prime example of the mediocre crap that is destroying YouTube. Luckily, no one ever read that blog, because YOUTUBERS REACT was about to get better.<br /><br />
That was me... REACTING.<br />
<br />
The title may have been "Catte Reacts", but Catie didn't react... she <i>acted</i>. She didn't worry about petty nonsense. She knew what she wanted, and getting mad at Shane Dawson wasn't going to help her get it. She'd been preparing for two years. Her first videos, after coming out of hiding, had always been charming, but they had been occasionally awkward, but she'd started making a video a week, and she'd gotten really comfortable with the camera, even her mistakes were gorgeous, in April 2013, preparedness met opportunity, and she had seen the opportunity right away.<br
<br />

<br />
<br />
Catie aimed this video straight at the Fine Brothers, and their huge audience, and it flew like an arrow. She knew that her video would show up in the related videos for the Fine Brothers video, which would get millions of views right away. And she knew she would be noticed. The irrefutable evidence that Catie made this video with the Fine Brothers in mind is the fact that in postproduction, she bleeped out the word "FUCK" out of her rant at the end. She's never bleeped out anything on the anewhopeee channel before or since, but she did it here... because that's what the Fine Brothers do.
She knew exactly what she was doing throughout. She wore lipstick, but little or no eye makeup, so people wouldn't mistake her for Boxxy. Instead of responding to the insults, Catie kept it light. She laughed off a few of the insults, and talked over or simply edited out the rest, which was a classy way to handle it. In one stroke, she made half of the celebrities on YouTube look like fools-- not by calling them fools, which is what I would have done, but by being classier, and by being the one who knew what she was talking about. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is <i>quiet authority.
</i><br /><br />
In depth, on video, for the first time. For everyone who was curious, that was like catnip. It had been two years, and she hadn't much talked about it on video. I'd assumed she didn't want to talk about it, but she was just waiting for the right time, when it would do her the most good. Stuff like this, you can never tell whether Catie is being so very smart out of decision or intuition. Is it a plan or instinct? She's still a beguiling mystery to me, but it isn't sad anymore.
<br /><br />
Not being dummies, the Fine Brothers started putting her in videos, withing a few months.<br />
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/uTZYY_9O0U0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
<br />
And now it's been a year, and now she makes videos as a full time job. Catie's work with Animalist and other channels is bringing polish and professionalism to her work, and I love that, but I look forward to the day when she will grace us once again with some personal work. It's going to happen. She doesn't stand still.<br><br>
I made the following video in December, expressly because I wanted to put my admiration for this one master stroke in perspective, by naming it number one epic Catie event of the year. I was a little tired by the time I got tol the end. I don't think I really succeeded in explaining how brilliant this was. maybe by writing this blogpost, I finally nailed it, which is what Catie would say.<br />

Another entertaining superhero parody,starring Patrick Warburton, who shows himself here to be a better actor than I ever gave him credit for. The live action "Tick" was a followup to a successful animated adaption of an indie comic book. Sadly, the show only lasted for nine episodes, less than half a season. Happily, all nine episodes are on YouTube
From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tick_%282001_TV_series%29">Wikipedia:</a>
<br />
<blockquote>
<b>The Tick is an American sitcom based on the character Tick from the comic book of the same name. It aired on Fox in late 2001 and was produced by Columbia TriStar Television. With a pilot airing on November 8, the series ran nine episodes on broadcast television. It was released to DVD in 2003.

Starring Patrick Warburton as the Tick, David Burke as Arthur, Nestor Carbonell as Bat Manuel, Liz Vassey as Captain Liberty

Dr. Walter Freeman (1895-1972) created the psycho-surgery technique known as the "trans-orbital lobotomy", going in under the eyeball, instead of through the front of the skull. This made lobotomies relatively safe and about as non-invasive as brain surgery could be. Doctor Freeman then went about the business of promoting lobotomy as a medical solution to a whole range of emotional, behavioral and social problems-- with tragic results.<br />

<br />
I saw this documentary 25 years ago, and, at the time, I was quite moved.
<br />
From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_surrogate">Wikipedia:</a>
<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<b> A sexual surrogate, sometimes called a surrogate partner, is a member of a sex therapy team consisting of client(s), supervising therapist, and surrogate. Some couples attend sexual surrogacy sessions together, while some people (either single or in a couple) attend them alone. The surrogate engages in education and often intimate physical contact and/or sexual activity with clients to achieve a therapeutic goal. Masters and Johnson introduced the practice in their textbook on Human Sexual Inadequacy, published in 1970.</b></blockquote>

<br />
In 1985, Maureen Sullivan was a Sex Surrogate. She allowed filmmaker Kirby Dick to record every aspect of the thearpy of two patients, who were given therapy free of charge in exchange for their consent.
From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Practices:_The_Story_of_a_Sex_Surrogate">The Wikipedia article about the film.</a>
<br />
<blockquote>
<b>Private Practices focuses on sex surrogate Maureen Sullivan and two of her clients. Kipper, a 25-year-old college student, has had little sexual experience with women and seeks help overcoming his shyness. John, a 45-year-old divorcee, believes that his sexual inadequacies are preventing him from finding a new partner. Sullivan works with these men in an attempt to improve their body image, relationship skills, and sexual satisfaction.
The film also shows how these patients interact with their friends, family members, and therapists. Many scenes focus on Sullivan, who discusses her history as a surrogate and describes her own relationship difficulties. In one scene, she and her brother confront their father about his abusive behavior and unwillingness to accept Maureen's career choice.
</b></blockquote>

<br />
There's a lot in here about Maureen's own relationship issues, and she comes across as almost as wounded and vulnerable as her painfully awkward clients. For Maureen, this seems to have been a trust issue, as if she couldn't ask her clients to make their intimate relationship issues open to public scrutiny without making herself equally vulnerable.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhypHopvQnKZbjkrK1IcIyYuW42X-hBeJLN3JaJ_ik27fmdem_pGlb_CzjnFRC3FUDzHVk37orMFamX5tIvmvGw36FdzCUTSH_9ymNSj0REVp4O_JIdltYAvsTe_X86olJIWrwBC-fwHQQ_/s1600/snapshot25.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhypHopvQnKZbjkrK1IcIyYuW42X-hBeJLN3JaJ_ik27fmdem_pGlb_CzjnFRC3FUDzHVk37orMFamX5tIvmvGw36FdzCUTSH_9ymNSj0REVp4O_JIdltYAvsTe_X86olJIWrwBC-fwHQQ_/s400/snapshot25.png" /></a> <br />
<br />
This is the only version of this film that I could find online find without a pay wall or a membership wall, and it's been cut extensively, about 15 minutes shorter than the other versions, but the nudity and scenes of intimate sexuality that I remember from the late 80s seem to be largely intact. However it's the emotional intensity of the participants that make this film worth watching, and worth remembering.

I've been reading about this concert film for years, especially the performance by James Brown, and now its on YouTube! Interrnet, you've done it again!<br />
<br />
Hosted by Jan and Dean, featuring everything from teen pp idols to garage bands to the greatest live acts in history, it's the perfect mix of show business professionalism and raw rock and roll energy.
This video is owned by the mouldering corpse of Dick Clark, so I'd recommend <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloadhelper/">downloading this</a> before somebody takes it down.<br />

From
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T.A.M.I._Show">Wikipedia:</a><br />
<blockquote>
<b>T.A.M.I. Show is a 1964 concert film released by American International Pictures. It includes performances by numerous popular rock and roll and R&B musicians from the United States and England. The concert was held at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on October 28 and 29, 1964. Free tickets were distributed to local high school students. The acronym "T.A.M.I." was used inconsistently in the show's publicity to mean both "Teenage Awards Music International" and "Teen Age Music International".
The best footage from each of the two concert dates was edited into the film, which was released on December 29, 1964. Jan and Dean emceed the event and performed its theme song, "Here They Come (From All Over the World)" written by Los Angeles composers P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. Jack Nitzsche was the show's music director.
The film was shot by director Steve Binder and his crew from The Steve Allen Show, using a precursor to High Definition television called "Electronovision" invented by the self-taught "electronics whiz," Bill Sargent. The film was the second of a handful of productions that used the system.[1] By capturing more than 800 lines of resolution at 25 frame/s, the video could be converted to film via kinescope recording with sufficiently enhanced resolution to allow big-screen enlargement. It is considered one of the seminal events in the pioneering of music films, and more importantly, the later concept of music videos.</b></blockquote>
Performers:
The Barbarians,
The Beach Boys,

Marvin Gaye (with backing vocals by The Blossoms),Gerry & the Pacemakers,
Lesley Gore,
Jan and Dean,
Billy J. Kramer and The Dakotas,
Smokey Robinson and The Miracles,

and The Supremes.<br />
<br />
I'm still taking it in, but my favorite part so far is seeing the Barbarians perform "Hey Little Bird", featuring a terrific performance by their legendary one-handed drummer, Victor "Moulty" Moulton .<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Moulty became a sort of a cult figure after the autobiographical single
"Moulty" was rereleased on the classic "Nuggets" compilation in 1972. With good natured innocence, Moulty talks about overcoming adversity after "my accident". (According to wikipedia, he lost his hand in an explosion when he was 14.)<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/25x3aIWs76E" width="420"></iframe>
I first heard "Moulty" in
the 1980s, and ever since then , I've felt a real affection for this
young man, and to finally get to see his joy in playing the drums is a

Moulton kept bringing the Barbarians back with new lineups during the seventies ande nineties, without much success, but I like to thing he continued to have a great time. I thin I may have found him on Google, running a carpet cleaning service in Massachusetts. <br />
<br />
Hope he found that real girl, the one who really loves him. But either way, I'm sure he don't need no pity!<br />

A reunion/finale of <i>Homicide: Life Of the Streets</i>, one of the greatest cop shows of all time.

Unconscious, he is rushed to the hospital. In a montage sequence, each of the detectives who used to work for him during the show's 7-year run learns of the shooting and rushes to the squad room. While some of the detectives are still working Homicide, most have either quit the force, retired, or transferred to other departments. Particular attention is paid to Frank Pembleton, who is now working as a college professor, and Mike Giardello, who has quit the FBI and is now working as a uniformed officer.</b></blockquote>
