When he arrived in England, however, he saw the amount of advertising devoted to the quartet and realized he was no longer the main draw. He had never heard of them and, annoyed, asked hypothetically, "What's a Beatle anyway?" to which John Lennon replied after tapping his shoulder, "I am."On opening night, Orbison opted to go onstage first although he was the more established act. Known for having raucous shows expressing an extraordinary amount of energy, Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr stood dumbfounded backstage as Orbison performed completely still and simply sang through fourteen encores. Finally, when the audience began chanting "We want Roy!" again, Lennon and McCartney prevented Orbison from going on again by physically holding him back. Starr later said, "In Glasgow, we were all backstage listening to the tremendous applause he was getting. He was just standing there, not moving or anything." Through the tour, however, both acts quickly learned to get along, a process made easier by the fact that the Beatles admired his work. Orbison felt a kinship with Lennon, but it was Harrison with whom he would later form a strong friendship. The moniker of "The Big O" would eventually follow him back to the States, where it became an unofficial nickname for Orbison. User: TheNextDylan Dec 12, 2012 9:11 AM

Unmoderated Tag: Television Rating: No Votes Hits: 137 Comments: 0 Sid Caesar: This is Your Story Sid Caesar: This is Your Story Before video tape, when a live prime time television series went on mid year hiatus, the networks would broadcast "summer replacements". During the year 1957, "The Ernie Kovacs Show" was the summer replacement program for "Caesar's Hour". Earlier known as "Your Show of Shows", it starred the legendary TV comedian Sid Caesar, with co-stars Carl Reiner and the late Howard Morris. With a writing staff that included among others Mel Brooks, Neil Simon, Danny Simon and Mel Tolkin, it was one of the premier comedy shows of it's time. This particular sketch satirizes one of the most popular programs of it's day "This is Your Life" which starred Ralph Edwards and it is, in my opinion, one of the funniest comedy sketches ever performed on television. Howard Morris' over-the-top performance as "Uncle Goopy" put an audience in stitches 50 years ago and he can do it again with equal ease today! After Kovacs' untimely death, Sid was called upon by director Stanley Kramer to replace Ernie in the role of "Melville Crump" in the1963 film "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World".

William Hartnell - Patrick Troughton: The Tenth Planet, Part 4 (1966) * The First Doctor dies of old age / exhaustion due to the energy drain on the planet Mondas. 2. Patrick Troughton - Jon Pertwee: The War Games, Part 10 (1969) * The Second Doctor is exiled to Earth by the Time Lords and is forced to regenerate. 3. Jon Pertwee - Tom Baker: Planet Of The Spiders, Part 6 (1974) * The Third Doctor dies of radiation poisoning from the crystals of Metabelis Three. 4. Tom Baker - Peter Davison: Logopolis, Part 4 (1981) * The Fourth Doctor falls from the Pharos Project radio telescope and merges with the Watcher. 5. Peter Davison - Colin Baker: The Caves Of Androzani, Part 4 (1984) * The Fifth Doctor dies of spectrox toxaemia exposure on Androzani Minor. 6. Colin Baker - Sylvester McCoy: Time And The Rani, Part 1 (1987) * The Sixth Doctor regenerates when the Rani shoots down the TARDIS. 7. Sylvester McCoy - Paul McGann: Doctor Who: The Movie (1996) * The Seventh Doctor is shot by a gang member, then dies while being operated on in hospital. 8. Paul McGann - Christopher Eccleston: No official regeneration exists. (This video features a fanmade regeneration created by Mulett.) * The Eighth Doctor's reason for regenerating is unknown. 9. Christopher Eccleston - David Tennant: The Parting Of The Ways (2005) * The Ninth Doctor dies of cellular degeneration caused by absorbing the energies of the Time Vortex. 10. David Tennant - Matt Smith: The End Of Time, Part 2 (2010) * The Tenth Doctor dies of radiation poisoning caused by the faulting power supply of the Immortality Gate. TRIVIA: * The Doctor can regenerate two more times for a total of 12 regenerations (and 13 incarnations of the Doctor) according to Doctor Who mythology. * The Second Doctor was never seen to actually change into the Third, simply fading off into darkness at the end of 'The War Games' (1969) and then stumbling out of the TARDIS, already regenerated, at the start of 'Spearhead From Space' (1970). Both scenes are included in this video. * Colin Baker declined to appear in his regeneration scene after being fired by the BBC, so the regeneration in 'Time And The Rani' (1987) features Sylvester McCoy in a blond wig regenerating into the Seventh Doctor. * No official regeneration of Paul McGann into Christopher Eccleston exists. Nine years had passed between the 1996 TV movie & the 2005 series, and producer Russell T Davies felt that beginning the 2005 series with a regeneration would be too confusing for new viewers. (My thanks to Mulett for creating the McGann to Eccleston regeneration seen in this video.) * In 'The Stolen Earth / Journey's End' (2008) the Tenth Doctor partially-regenerates after being shot by a Dalek, but aborts the regeneration by redirecting the energy to his severed hand. It has never been officially stated whether this used up a regeneration or not (See it in my video "Regeneration 2 - New Beginnings.") * The BBC's Doctor Who FAQ suggests that now the Time Lords are gone, the Doctor may be able to circumvent the limit on regenerations; it says: "Now that his people are gone, who knows? Time Lords used to have 13 lives." * Intro/Outro Theme: M??bius by Floorten. http://whomix.windbubbles.net/remix/41 * The music over the McGann - Eccleston regeneration is called 'The Doctor's Theme (Pappenheim Remix)' by Murray Gold.

Permanent Tag: Cinema Rating: Good Hits: 643 Comments: 0 The Wonders of Disney Animation The Wonders of Disney Animation There are 51 films that are currently labeled as animated Disney movies, all of which are along the lines of magic. Riding on that flying carpet, adventuring Wonderland, and witnessing the reveal of the king's newborn cub will always be an unforgettable journey throughout cinema. If it was right on the big screen, on a classy VHS tape, or on a simple disc, the times we spent laughing, crying, and cheering for these mesmerizing characters will stay in our hearts forever. We all flew to Neverland. We all went under the sea. We all found the honey. So 'heigh ho' you go into this video that celebrates not only the 51 movies that defined the century, but an achievement in cinema itself. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I did creating it. It was quite the challenge to track down all these films (some that sadly only make one appearance), but I did it, and I'm proud of the results.

Charlie Magnetico stars Henson's first robot puppet, as well as his collaborator and first employee, Jerry Juhl. Henson had found Juhl working with Frank Oz in the early '60s, but Oz was still in high school, so Juhl was Henson's first hire. User: spam_vigilante Feb 7, 2012 5:41 AM
