The Abominable Dr Phibes! One of my favorite movies of all time. Set in the 1920s, filmed in the 1970s, featuring Vincent Price clearly having a great time as his character (Phibes) kills a variety of characters in increasingly improbable ways

I'm rewatching because I love DT & Billie Piper just that much, plus John Hurt...and the moments with the drs being silly boys are still fun. But I'm about to bitch about it.
Just to rant where I've never ranted before (I wasn't on tumblr when that came out), it still brings up bitterness. They advertised the 50th, they put it in theaters and told us BP & DT would be in it, knowing they were favorites for a majority of fandom (at the time), only to actually cast BP as a character who couldn't interact with either doctor. Like, I'm not even mad they didn't bring Rose into it (not that mad---I love her, I'd have loved to see her play with three doctors), but refusing to let the character interact just so Moffatt wouldn't have to be bothered writing any kind of emotional reaction either doctor might have had to seeing Rose fucking Bad Wolf Tyler show up was just petty or lazy or both. So many of us went to see it in theaters just to get a throw-away, casual 'bad wolf?" line from DT at the very end of the movie. Like, he absolutely knew what audience he would attract and was happy to take our money and give a massive middle finger all at once.
Plotwise, also, it was just such a letdown. I'm with Christopher Eccleston, who wouldn't be involved since it basically undid his entire storyline and motivation, which started the series in the first place. Which is fucked, because we would've been lucky to get CE back for even a moment.

I always love reading the tags for your DW posts, because you pay such great attention to detail, you do not only NOT miss the subtleties, but even some of the blatantly obvious things that even longtime fans might have missed (like me). You make us think with some of your own thoughts and feelings and observations in your tags, and you always make me think. I love your tags.
aw!
🥹🤧🥲☺️
thank you!

Today In History
Dr. Carter Godwin Woodson, was born in New Canton, VA, on this date December 19, 1875. Woodson had worked as a sharecropper, miner and various other jobs during his childhood to help support his large family. Though he entered high school late, he made up for lost time, graduating in less than two years. After attending Berea College in Kentucky, Woodson worked in the Philippines as an education superintendent for the U.S. government. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the University of Chicago before entering Harvard. In 1912, three years before founding the ASNLH (Association for the Study of Negro Life and History).
Dr. Carter G. Woodson became the second African American to receive a doctorate from Harvard University after W.E.B. Du Bois.
Woodson believed that young African Americans in the early 20th century were not being taught enough of their own heritage, and the achievements of their ancestors. In 1921 Woodson started his own publication the Associated Publishers Press and housed it at his row house on Ninth Street in Washington D.C. He then turned to his fraternity, Omega Psi Phi, who helped create Negro History and Literature Week in 1924.
In February 1926, Woodson sent out a press release announcing the first Negro History Week. As early as the 1940s, efforts began to expand the week of public celebration of African American heritage and achievements into a longer event. In 1976, on the 50th anniversary of the first Negro History Week, the Association officially made the shift to Black History Month.
Woodson dedicated his career to the field of African American history and lobbied extensively to establish Black History Month as a nationwide institution. He wrote many historical works, including the 1933 book The Mis-Education of the Negro.
We honor Dr. Carter G. Woodson legacy through CARTER™️ Magazine, extending his vision for making African American history available for everyone 365 days a year.

One thing I find interesting about the difference between BOSAS and THG is the reaping. In BOSAS, the mayor reaps the children. He chooses a name, reads it, and that’s done. However, in THG, a capitol (escort? person?) Q citizen reads it.
Makes you think about why such a change would happen. Why would anyone waste more valuable capitol people on these games? And it’s been going on since at least the 50th games, probably sooner.
Who has enough power to make that big of a change? Who would be the one to know that mayors have personal connections to each of the possible tributes? Who else knows how easy it is to change the tributes?
Coriolanus changed it, for Lucy Gray. Or maybe not Lucy Gray. Maybe just children like Lucy Gray. But I’d bet money on the fact that Coriolanus was the one to make the switch, and let y’all interpret that however you see fit.
Personally, I think he just didn’t the districts to have any control over the games at all. He couldn’t handle the idea that they could be doing this and what could be going on behind closed doors. I think this is something he told Dr. Gaul, and she probably fixed.
Or maybe he really does care about fairness (lol). Either way, the change is interesting. I think he realizes how well it works out when Effie calls Haymitch’s name, though. That also shows a lot about Effie, too.
