So apparently there is a SNL sketch parodying one of my favorite movies,20000Leagues Under the SEa,with Kelsey Grammer as James Mason/Captain Nemo,Phil Hartman as Kirk Douglas/Ned Land,Mike Myers as Paul Lukas /Professor Arronaux and Rob Schneider as Peter Lorre/Consiel with the premise being Nemo is getting frustrated explaining a LEague is a unit of distance not depth.....This sounds funny so I looked itnto it and apparently the sktech is partially lost media.Like half the sketch does exist ,andI was able to see it ,but the set up is gone .So as a huge fan of that film,I am bummed

A Runaway Reef
THE YEAR 1866 was marked by a bizarre development, an unexplained and downright inexplicable phenomenon that surely no one has forgotten. Without getting into those rumors that upset civilians in the seaports and deranged the public mind even far inland, it must be said that professional seamen were especially alarmed. Traders, shipowners, captains of vessels, skippers, and master mariners from Europe and America, naval officers from every country, and at their heels the various national governments on these two continents, were all extremely disturbed by the business. In essence, over a period of time several ships had encountered "an enormous thing" at sea, a long spindle-shaped object, sometimes giving off a phosphorescent glow, infinitely bigger and faster than any whale. The relevant data on this apparition, as recorded in various logbooks, agreed pretty closely as to the structure of the object or creature in question, its unprecedented speed of movement, its startling locomotive power, and the unique vitality with which it seemed to be gifted. If it was a cetacean, it exceeded in bulk any whale previously classified by science. No naturalist, neither Cuvier nor Lacepede, neither Professor Dumeril nor Professor de Quatrefages, would have accepted the existence of such a monster sight unseen-specifically, unseen by their own scientific eyes. Striking an average of observations taken at different times-rejecting those timid estimates that gave the object a length of 200 feet, and ignoring those exaggerated views that saw it as a mile wide and three long - you could still assert that this phenomenal creature greatly exceeded the dimensions of anything then known to ichthyologists, if it existed at all. Now then, it did exist, this was an undeniable fact; and since the human mind dotes on objects of wonder, you can understand the worldwide excitement caused by this unearthly apparition. As for relegating it to the realm of fiction, that charge had to be dropped. In essence, on July 20, 1866, the steamer Governor Higginson, from the Calcutta & Burnach Steam Navigation Co., encountered this moving mass five miles off the eastern shores of Australia. Captain Baker at first thought he was in the presence of an unknown reef; he was even about to fix its exact position when two waterspouts shot out of this inexplicable object and sprang hissing into the air some 150 feet. So, unless this reef was subject to the intermittent eruptions of a geyser, the Governor Higginson had fair and honest dealings with some aquatic mammal, until then unknown, that could spurt from its blowholes waterspouts mixed with air and steam. Similar events were likewise observed in Pacific seas, on July 23 of the same year, by the Christopher Columbus from the West India & Pacific Steam Navigation Co. Consequently, this extraordinary cetacean could transfer itself from one locality to another with startling swiftness, since within an interval of just three days, the Governor Higginson and the Christopher Columbus had observed it at two positions on the charts separated by a distance of more than 700 nautical leagues. Fifteen days later and 2,000 leagues farther, the Helvetia from the Compagnie Nationale and the Shannon from the Royal Mail line, running on opposite tacks in that part of the Atlantic lying between the United States and Europe, respectively signaled each other that the monster had been sighted in latitude 42 degrees 15' north and longitude 60 degrees 35' west of the meridian of Greenwich. From their simultaneous observations, they were able to estimate the mammal's minimum length at more than 350 English feet;* this was because both the Shannon and the Helvetia were of smaller dimensions, although each measured 100 meters stem to stern. Now then, the biggest whales, those rorqual whales that frequent the waterways of the Aleutian Islands, have never exceeded a length of 56 meters - if they reach even that. *Author's Note: About 106 meters. An English foot is only 30.4 centimeters. One after another, reports arrived that would profoundly affect public opinion: new observations taken by the transatlantic liner Pereire, the Inman line's Etna running afoul of the monster, an official report drawn up by officers on the French frigate Normandy, dead-earnest reckonings obtained by the general staff of Commodore Fitz-James aboard the Lord Clyde. In lighthearted countries, people joked about this phenomenon, but such serious, practical countries as England, America, and Germany were deeply concerned. In every big city the monster was the latest rage; they sang about it in the coffee houses, they ridiculed it in the newspapers, they dramatized it in the theaters. The tabloids found it a fine opportunity for hatching all sorts of hoaxes. In those newspapers short of copy, you saw the reappearance of every gigantic imaginary creature, from "Moby Dick," that dreadful white whale from the High Arctic regions, to the stupendous kraken whose tentacles could entwine a 500-ton craft and drag it into the ocean depths. They even reprinted reports from ancient times: the views of Aristotle and Pliny accepting the existence of such monsters, then the Norwegian stories of Bishop Pontoppidan, the narratives of Paul Egede, and finally the reports of Captain Harrington-whose good faith is above suspicion - in which he claims he saw, while aboard the Castilian in 1857, one of those enormous serpents that, until then, had frequented only the seas of France's old extremist newspaper, The Constitutionalist. An interminable debate then broke out between believers and skeptics in the scholarly societies and scientific journals. The "monster question" inflamed all minds. During this memorable campaign, journalists making a profession of science battled with those making a profession of wit, spilling waves of ink and some of them even two or three drops of blood, since they went from sea serpents to the most offensive personal remarks. For six months the war seesawed. With inexhaustible zest, the popular press took potshots at feature articles from the Geographic Institute of Brazil, the Royal Academy of Science in Berlin, the British Association, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., at discussions in The Indian Archipelago, in Cosmos published by Father Moigno, in Petermann's Mittheilungen,* and at scientific chronicles in the great French and foreign newspapers. When the monster's detractors cited a saying by the botanist Linnaeus that "nature doesn't make leaps," witty writers in the popular periodicals parodied it, maintaining in essence that "nature doesn't make lunatics," and ordering their contemporaries never to give the lie to nature by believing in krakens, sea serpents, "Moby Dicks," and other all-out efforts from drunken seamen. Finally, in a much-feared satirical journal, an article by its most popular columnist finished off the monster for good, spurning it in the style of Hippolytus repulsing the amorous advances of his stepmother Phaedra, and giving the creature its quietus amid a universal burst of laughter. Wit had defeated science. *German: "Bulletin." Ed. During the first months of the year 1867, the question seemed to be buried, and it didn't seem due for resurrection, when new facts were brought to the public's attention. But now it was no longer an issue of a scientific problem to be solved, but a quite real and serious danger to be avoided. The question took an entirely new turn. The monster again became an islet, rock, or reef, but a runaway reef, unfixed and elusive. On March 5, 1867, the Moravian from the Montreal Ocean Co., lying during the night in latitude 27 degrees 30' and longitude 72 degrees 15', ran its starboard quarter afoul of a rock marked on no charts of these waterways. Under the combined efforts of wind and 400-horsepower steam, it was traveling at a speed of thirteen knots. Without the high quality of its hull, the Moravian would surely have split open from this collision and gone down together with those 237 passengers it was bringing back from Canada. This accident happened around five o'clock in the morning, just as day was beginning to break. The officers on watch rushed to the craft's stern. They examined the ocean with the most scrupulous care. They saw nothing except a strong eddy breaking three cable lengths out, as if those sheets of water had been violently churned. The site's exact bearings were taken, and the Moravian continued on course apparently undamaged. Had it run afoul of an underwater rock or the wreckage of some enormous derelict ship? They were unable to say. But when they examined its undersides in the service yard, they discovered that part of its keel had been smashed. This occurrence, extremely serious in itself, might perhaps have been forgotten like so many others, if three weeks later it hadn't been reenacted under identical conditions. Only, thanks to the nationality of the ship victimized by this new ramming, and thanks to the reputation of the company to which this ship belonged, the event caused an immense uproar. No one is unaware of the name of that famous English shipowner, Cunard. In 1840 this shrewd industrialist founded a postal service between Liverpool and Halifax, featuring three wooden ships with 400-horsepower paddle wheels and a burden of 1,162 metric tons. Eight years later, the company's assets were increased by four 650-horsepower ships at 1,820 metric tons, and in two more years, by two other vessels of still greater power and tonnage. In 1853 the Cunard Co., whose mail-carrying charter had just been renewed, successively added to its assets the Arabia, the Persia, the China, the Scotia, the Java, and the Russia, all ships of top speed and, after the Great Eastern, the biggest ever to plow the seas. So in 1867 this company owned twelve ships, eight with paddle wheels and four with propellers. If I give these highly condensed details, it is so everyone can fully understand the importance of this maritime transportation company, known the world over for its shrewd management. No transoceanic navigational undertaking has been conducted with more ability, no business dealings have been crowned with greater success. In twenty-six years Cunard ships have made 2,000 Atlantic crossings without so much as a voyage canceled, a delay recorded, a man, a craft, or even a letter lost. Accordingly, despite strong competition from France, passengers still choose the Cunard line in preference to all others, as can be seen in a recent survey of official documents. Given this, no one will be astonished at the uproar provoked by this accident involving one of its finest steamers. On April 13, 1867, with a smooth sea and a moderate breeze, the Scotia lay in longitude 15 degrees 12' and latitude 45 degrees 37'. It was traveling at a speed of 13.43 knots under the thrust of its 1,000-horsepower engines. Its paddle wheels were churning the sea with perfect steadiness. It was then drawing 6.7 meters of water and displacing 6,624 cubic meters. At 4:17 in the afternoon, during a high tea for passengers gathered in the main lounge, a collision occurred, scarcely noticeable on the whole, affecting the Scotia's hull in that quarter a little astern of its port paddle wheel. The Scotia hadn't run afoul of something, it had been fouled, and by a cutting or perforating instrument rather than a blunt one. This encounter seemed so minor that nobody on board would have been disturbed by it, had it not been for the shouts of crewmen in the hold, who climbed on deck yelling: "We're sinking! We're sinking!" At first the passengers were quite frightened, but Captain Anderson hastened to reassure them. In fact, there could be no immediate danger. Divided into seven compartments by watertight bulkheads, the Scotia could brave any leak with impunity. Captain Anderson immediately made his way into the hold. He discovered that the fifth compartment had been invaded by the sea, and the speed of this invasion proved that the leak was considerable. Fortunately this compartment didn't contain the boilers, because their furnaces would have been abruptly extinguished. Captain Anderson called an immediate halt, and one of his sailors dived down to assess the damage. Within moments they had located a hole two meters in width on the steamer's underside. Such a leak could not be patched, and with its paddle wheels half swamped, the Scotia had no choice but to continue its voyage. By then it lay 300 miles from Cape Clear, and after three days of delay that filled Liverpool with acute anxiety, it entered the company docks. The engineers then proceeded to inspect the Scotia, which had been put in dry dock. They couldn't believe their eyes. Two and a half meters below its waterline, there gaped a symmetrical gash in the shape of an isosceles triangle. This breach in the sheet iron was so perfectly formed, no punch could have done a cleaner job of it. Consequently, it must have been produced by a perforating tool of uncommon toughness-plus, after being launched with prodigious power and then piercing four centimeters of sheet iron, this tool had needed to withdraw itself by a backward motion truly inexplicable. This was the last straw, and it resulted in arousing public passions all over again. Indeed, from this moment on, any maritime casualty without an established cause was charged to the monster's account. This outrageous animal had to shoulder responsibility for all derelict vessels, whose numbers are unfortunately considerable, since out of those 3,000 ships whose losses are recorded annually at the marine insurance bureau, the figure for steam or sailing ships supposedly lost with all hands, in the absence of any news, amounts to at least 200! Now then, justly or unjustly, it was the "monster" who stood accused of their disappearance; and since, thanks to it, travel between the various continents had become more and more dangerous, the public spoke up and demanded straight out that, at all cost, the seas be purged of this fearsome cetacean.

DIsney Month :Comic Version of 20000Leagues Under The Sea
The Fourth review of Disney Month ,we are looking at a comic adaptation.....Of my favorite Disney movie ,20000 Leagues Under the Sea
Tumblr media
This 1954 comic follows Professor Arronoux ,his assistant Consiel and harpooner Ned Land are imprisioned aboard the Nautilus by the misanthropic Captain Nemo,and while Ned and Consiel seek to escape ,Arranoux seeks to learn Nemos secrets
So 20'000 Leagues Under the Sea is my favorite Disney film(Only competition might be Who Framed Roger Rabbit ).With great effects,set pieces,an interesting premise being a prision escape movie combined with sea adventure and science fiction,a fascinating villain and four amazing performances at the center with James Mason, Kirk Douglas . Peter Lorre and Paul Lukas ....But I am not talking about the movie ,I am talking about the comic version...Which is prett darn good ,despite wonkyness
The wonkyness is in the art ,not that it looks bad but....None of the characters look like the actors. Ned kind of looks like Kirk Douglas ,but Arronoux looks like a Victorian mystery reject , Captain Nemo looks like Walter Pidgeon as a supervillain (Complete with a big N on his chest ) and Consiell looks less like Peter Lorre and more like Jude Laws Watson (Thanks @goodanswerfoxmonster)
However for 54 the art itself is good,it captures many of the setpieces well .I also think it isa good adaptation.Stuff is cut ,Mainly most of the comedic scenes involving Ned Land and his bonding with Esmerelda the Seal,who is male here,never named .....And kind of blows up at the end.Also Nemos First Mate is cut so you dont get the fight between him and Ned Land . There are some changes.The big ones that stood out to me is that instead of Vulcania ,Nemos island is just called N and slight dialogue changes,the biggest being more emphasis on Nemos dead family(Changing the big speach about not considering murdering sailors murder ,from disgust at mass death this unamed country has caused,to just being about his family .Other then that its pretty close to the movie.I expected it to have the set pieces (Nemo rescuing Ned from the Shark ,The cannibal attack ,the finale on Nemos island and of course the squid fight .though that scene works better on film then in comic ) but it also had scenes I didnt expect like the weird dinner scene,Nemo lamenting his dead family and honestly most of the scenes and dialogue while changed are fairly close to the film .The purpose of comic adaptions of films initially was a substitute for home video,if you wanted to re experience a film you liked again you had to get a novelization ,listen to a radio adaptaion or in this case get a comic.And as a comic version goes,it nails most of the thematic and emotional beats of the story ,far better then I expected it to
OH fun thing ,the comic has a few promotional stills from the movie ....And when they were making the film they actuallly filmed two diffrent versions of the squid fight ,and the still in this is of the first clunky looking squid unused in the final film
Questions by @ariel-seagull-wings
1-How well the visuals of the movie translate to the comic?
Other then the Natilus the comic doesnt really try to copy the film.Some scenes dont work , the Squid fight feels underwhelming ,but the Rorapindi scene and the Nautilus attacks are pretty good
2- Does the comic has scenes that the movie didn't have?
All the new stuff I noticed :We see aboard the first ship that is attacked by the Nautilus ,we see Ned Land bring up Arronauxs gear onto their ship ,Ned trie to harpoon the Nataulus ,Ned brings Conciel and Arronaux aboard his long boat BEFORE they reach the Nautilus,Esmerelda the sea lion is how Nemo finds out about the heroes being aboard the Nautilus ,Arronaux sees one of the prisioners die on Rorapindi , Consiel finds a picture of Nemos wife and son ,a ship attacks while after they escape the cannibals , and a scene where we see deep sea creatures (That was actually going to be an animated sequence that didnt make the film ), those are all the strictly new stuff
3- Can the comic be judged as a work of art and adaptation of the novel on its own right, or primarily as promotional material for the movie?
I cant speak to it as an adaption of the book,....But as a work of ar in of itself....I think its honestly pretty darn good.Honestly this is one of the better comic adaptations of a film I have read .I can picture a kid in 1954 picking this up after watching the movie and enjoying it

"... And the other idiots on board won't even have a smell!"
Ned Land in 20000 Leagues Under the Sea (book) when they’re on the island and getting coconuts and meat and things, confirming that they, too, are idiots.
