Big congrats to me ๐ Been into crypto trading for about a month now and the results have been solid so far. Just treated myself to a new car ๐ Goes to show what can happen when youโre working with the right people. If youโre interested, message ๐ @Evelyn_Brookss
@ATRightMovies Fascinating facts, thank you! One other: the blue laser light you see in the egg chamber was actually leftover lighting used by The Who, who had given a concert a few days earlier at Wembley Stadium, close to the filming location.
@thecinelost PS nothing against Max or his wonderful music - heโs an old friend - but itโs nothing to do with this film and its inclusion here is totally unnecessary.
@thecinelost Marvellous work by Chris Tucker, working in a tiny studio off the Old Kent Road. The first official makeup Oscar winner the following year was Rick Baker, rewarding his astonishing effects for An American Werewolf In London.
@NaughtiusMaxi10 @allanholloway @GreigNorman2@alawyerwrites I love these examples so much. Jimmy Anderson played an ODI against Wasim Akram in 2003; Wasim played against Clive Lloyd in 1985, who made his debut in the 1960s.
@Knowledgepoint In the 90s I used this station as the start and endpoint of a trip around the Circle line (ยฃ1 single) to see how long one circuit would take (it was 55 minutes.) When I tried to exit the station, the barrier wouldnโt work as I had bought my ticket at the same station.
@ProudofusUK Exhibits seen for the first time at the Crystal Palace included unbreakable glass (a strong man stood all day swinging a large hammer at a pane of it) and neon signs (so we think, from a description of โluminescence caused by a gas tube.โ)
@ProudofusUK Itโs difficult to appreciate the scale and importance of this exhibition to Victorian life. An old woman walked from Exeter to London to visit it, and although she had a lift on a cart for some of the way back, she still walked a hundred miles home.
