After many years, Cinema Wasteland-a local horror con has shut down. Their previous show in April turned out to be their last one so at least I had a chance to attend it.

Been going for a few years now, just for one day. Plenty of stuff to buy, theaters showing B-movies all day. It was usually a good time. But raising costs and a few behind the scenes details have caused it to end after decades. Sad

This long weekend I made the trip from Cleveland down to Akron for a drawing day at the zoo. What was funny is that not only did the zoo have one of those animatronic dinosaur exhibts going on-it it was hosting a Renaissance Fair as well. Now that was a good time.

Lemon sugar cookies. They turned out tasty, especially when they were hot.

Quote from: Dr. Whom on May 25, 2026, 02:59:18 AMYou've never seen Blake's 7????

QuoteThe science fiction series *Blake's 7* has never been broadcast on television in Germany. Despite its popularity in Great Britain and other countries, it never received a German dub or TV premiere.

So, there ya go.

Bummer....

Quote from: M.10rda on May 25, 2026, 11:14:28 AMDoctor, I recall from my youth that when Gance's NAPOLEON was discussed, it was referred to as being much longer than 560 minutes - like somewhere in the 17-25 hour range. Was there once a version that was that long, but the majority of it has been lost? Or (as you suggest in your review) did Gance intend that length but he just never managed to produce the balance?

As I understand it, he never made it past the first installment, but it was the intention to make six parts of 4-5 hours each.
