Hopefully we can make the pain subside over the weekend. <br /><br />Oh, and I forgot to mention, your "Piratical Fact of the Week" for this week is pretty funny too, Pirate Queen.Timmy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/09902641426229272672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876794033107456809.post-31314394289771786602010-04-16T14:22:36.018-08:002010-04-16T14:22:36.018-08:00Ahoy, Timmy!

DVD please, Mr. Turner.<br /><br />And I thought about posting a picture of Peter himself, but it occured to me that "Death and the Gravedigger" would have appealed to him a lot more. What with Death being a female angel and holding a creepy green light and so on. It's the least I can do.Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11730716060906158244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876794033107456809.post-66252877058182934522010-04-16T13:24:09.517-08:002010-04-16T13:24:09.517-08:00Ahoy, Pauline! That whole post is just made of awe...Ahoy, Pauline! That whole post is just made of awesome. Ya gotta love Yul "So let it be written. So let it be done." Brynner and Chuck "Good for you" Heston... Together again for the very first time! Plus the whole setting, cast of real life characters, historical setting, amazing cast (Sir Lancelot... isn't that the guy who does the voice of "Plankton" on "SpongeBob Squarepants"?)... Nicely done, Pirate Queen!<br /><br />And finally, on a very sad note, thanks for beautiful painting and acknowledgement of the untimely and tragic death of Peter Steele... As I said yesterday, one of greatest vocalists in rock is gone at 48... Like Warren Zevon in 2003, our lives will be poorer for the lack of his musical genius, cantankerous attitude and sarcastic sense of humor. RIP Pete. You are already missed.Timmy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/09902641426229272672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876794033107456809.post-87348839640353697962010-04-16T12:19:00.347-08:002010-04-16T12:19:00.347-08:00Ahoy, Ozarklorian!

I also saw a YouTube clip of the "pre-battle" scene with Laffite taking the Native out onto the field to shoot the flaming arrow.

The 1958 B...Hi Pauline, thanks for the compliments. The 1958 Buccaneer is available on "pirated" DVD via China. I have VHS of both the 1938 and 1958 versions; think I've just about wore out my 1958 one. Every once in a while, TCM runs both movies back to back, along with commentary. YouTube has a very nice original trailer promoting the 1958 Buccaneer.Ozarklorianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09348265376584155745noreply@blogger.com
