imagine if the oceans were replaced by forests and if you went into the forest the trees would get taller the deeper you went and there’d be thousands of undiscovered species and you could effectively walk across the ocean but the deeper you went, the darker it would be and the animals would get progressively scarier and more dangerous and instead of whales there’d be giant deer and just wow
i learned that actor Danny Trejo has the most on-screen deaths of anyone in Hollywood history, with 65. Followed by Christopher Lee (60), Lance Henriksen (51), Vincent Price (41), Dennis Hopper (41), Boris Karloff (41), and John Hurt (39). (x)
Yet poor Sean Bean is stuck with the reputation for dying in every movie. Unfair.
Give him time, he still has many years of dying yet to come.
Also there’s the question of density vs quantity. If you make a hundred movies and die in 50, and someone else makes 30 movies and dies in 30, the first one has died more, but the second one has died more often per movie.
It’s the DPM ratio that really counts, IMO.
65/402 16% Danny Trejo 60/282 21% Christopher Lee 51/259 20% Lance Henriksen 41/211 19% Vincent Price 41/205 20% Dennis Hopper 41/204 20% Boris Karloff 39/209 19% John Hurt 33/117 28% Sean Bean
I’m so proud of the statistical side of tumblr for coming through on this.
“Well, we have movie nights on Tuesdays. Dean usually picks. I’ve seen Lost Boys like 36 times.”
So Dean has seen Lost Boys SO MANY TIMES that he’s forced Jack to watch it 36 times just in the past two years. Do you think he was paying attention? Do you think he knows how gay it is? Davy Perez keeps making covert queer movie references in his episodes and I am here for it.
Dean. He’s TWO. Let him watch another movie.
Hell, Jack’s a toddler, Dean should be making him watch vintage cartoons and classic nick jr. Imagine Jack just mainlining Eureka’s Castle or David the Gnome over Dean’s protest, and then Jack finds baby shark and the wiggles and Dean officially goes insane. but I digress.
Dean’s clearly very into Lost Boys, the 1987 queercoded gay vampire panic version of peter pan, complete with AIDS metaphors and fear of family acceptance. Did this help Dean on his way to realizing the world isn’t all black and white, that monsters like Garth exist and not all ‘deviance’ needs to be hunted? Dean Meta and Movie Analysis Under the Cut
This getting reblogged again made me think about how when Dean was a kid, vampires were a myth, extinct, a hunter urban legend.
It was a monster movie Dean could watch without trama.
Now tho, despite all the on brand trauma, Dean became a vampire expert. Vampires became something he explicitly said he could always feel secure in a fight against. (sighs in finale)
