True Blood S2 E3 'Scratches' Screen Caps - Daphne & Sam, Bill, Eric, Sookie, Dr. Ludwig
























True-Blood.net, the Original Fansite for True Blood on HBO, is doing a fabulous job with screen caps this season. There are literally thousands. Per episode. :)

I have to point this out. Sorry but unless Daphne here has somehow mesmerized Sam plus anyone who looked at her from behind, those awful gouges (scratches--last in the series above) on her back would have been so very visible. Look at them! They are huge and they have ridges that protrude! And ick. 

Worse, are the Sookie shots which actually seem pretty realistic in the hyper-gore department. They remembered to have her heal completely from the current and past injuries (so facial bruising completely healed now--helpful!)

But, I'm not suspending disbelieve with Daphne and the really impossible-to-miss (even with a shirt on) scars on her back which seem to go nearly to the bottom of her shoulder blade. It ( they?) would have been visible in the shot before she took off her blouse if they had panned there. They did but only from a distance. 

I'm overlapping in my posting among the three websites I write which feature True Blood. The one where eventually I want everything is at thetruebloodblog.com.

This will have all that plus additional original material.Lots of migrating to do, yet.

True-Blood.net put literally thousands of screen caps for me to go through to pick out a few as example of how wonderful a job they did--I spent like 7-8 hours. But they are awesome and now I have to learn how. I'm so bad with software though.:p

I no way, no how can make as many, either. And I thought it was time-consuming going through  LOST Media at just under 1000 frames per hour-long episode. But it's really quite fun. Must teach self. 

Cheers!

True Blood Episode 15 - 'Scratches' HBO Video - S2E3 Screen Caps - S2E3 - Eric and Bill Bare Fangs - "Pam's New Pumps"

The “Pam’s New Pumps” scenes were two of the most lighthearted scenes in Episode 3 of Season 2, ‘Scratches’ otherwise a pretty dark eppy.

I love screen caps as inevitably I’ll miss details. Admittedly I usually watch each episode of True Blood twice to start off but just the same…love, love love that in these scenes our pretty in pink Pam is wearing shredded stockings, a soiled blouse, leaves stuck in her hair and gracious! has ruined her new pumps! All because of being ordered–with Chow–to investigate the place on the backwoods road where Sookie was attacked by the “bull-headed thing.”




























This is a very amusing sequence after in which Sookie's misfortune--the deep,long tears on her back inflicted by the "bull-horned thing," have put Eric into a vampiric-near-frenzy. The look on his face as he observes Dr. Ludwig at work on Sookie is one of animal hunger and it is ferociously funny.

Capped by and thanks to true-blood.net!

True Blood Screen Caps S2EX3 'Scratches' Sookie's Attack and Seizure
























Thanks to trueblood.net the original True Blood fansite for the wonderful caps. A talented  and generous Truebie there made thousands of these.

It's freaky how black her eyes look after the attack, especially in cap #27,then in #28 you can see a bit of white but they are still really dark. And later in a scene where Sookie is treated by the "special" doctor her eyes appear black again. I'll post a series of her treatment which is pretty awful-looking but compelling, too.

Here's the next scene where Sookie's eyes are like Jane Boathouse's were while partying at Merlotte's with Maryanne and like a reveller at Maryanne's almost-orgy.

I see some white butImage7  they still look really dark.

It could be that Anna Paquin's eyes look really dark when she's crying--she is in both scenes as well as the lighting in the one is that of a dark country road, so I dunno.

‘Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince’ Clips - The Cave, Together, The Plans, Mission, Darkest Hour, Challenge

Fromtheodi

Sometimes I wish I could clone myself--though the world is probably not ready for that--so I could better stay on top of things like 13 Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince Promos and Trailers being released. This happens all the time though not with this much alarming frquency, that studios be they movie or television unleash gobs of promo materials all at once. I realize that the idea is to saturate every form of media known to man but just the same...anyway a new Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film clip was just released! When I saw that though it's called #12,  including the MTV clip we now have thirteen Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Previews out. I checked my blogs and I cannot find all twelve but I can go back to seven which leads me to conclude that I need to get numbers 8-12 up, which are in this post--plus for good measure the MTV clip--which I did post (must have been a fluke, lol).  I'm very much looking forward to "...Half-Blood Prince" because it is my favourite Potter book and because it guarantees Alan Rickman (Prof. Snape) lots of screen time and that has to be a good thing. So here you go. Enjoy!

An American Werewolf in London - On the Moors - 20th Anniversary Trailer *Videos* Landis Sells Rights

ChocolateFrogPrince

Every time I see David Naughton, my first reaction is to want to break into his "I'm a Pepper" dance, you remember, 1980's teevee commerical for Dr. Pepper? OK. Never mind.


I read today that John Landis is totally selling out-- has sold out actually-- the rights to "An American Werewolf in London" to Dimension Films to remake this unique, funny horror flick--one of my all-time faves. This makes me sad as the original as I suppose I must now refer to it, is perfect as it is. It features state of the art (at that time) effects that when first seen were totally mind-bending and yes, as my becoming favourite go-to website notes, it is uber scary, especially the scene that I've re-posted here (below).
Also, Americans always seen to fail to note that Jenny Agutter also stars in this as the girlfriend. Remember Logan's Run? She starred in that (and lots of other flicks) too. She's quite good.

As scifiscoop.com notes, "Landis wrote and directed the original film about two American backpackers who, whilst hiking in the Yorkshire moors, are attacked by a werewolf.  One of them (played by Griffin Dunne) is killed and becomes doomed to remain one of the walking undead as long as the blood-line of the werewolf that killed him remains alive.  The other (played by David Naughton) becomes a werewolf and the last of the blood-line who goes on to terrorize London."

Though Landis will retain executive producer's rights, the film as of now has neither a writer nor director which makes me feel even less charitable towards Mr. Landis.

All I can really think is that he does not value the film as he should've and he was tempted by the almighty buck and sold out. Now the remake better be fantastic or awful. If it's simply mediocre I will..it's illegal to make threats right?  laugh at Jon Landis.

EDIT/ Aw. Maybe I shouldn't be so hard on him. He's the guy whose career highlights ended in 1983 with Twilight Zone: The Movie. Before that, he did the notorious "Kentucky Fried Movie," " Animal House," "The Blues Brothers," "American Werewolf..." and what appears to be his and Michael Jackson's pinacle of success, the short film "Thiller." If you want to see the list of schlock that the man has fobbed on the world since then be my guest.

    Sookie and Bill - True Blood Season 2

    • Sookie and Bill
      "Believe it or not, the show is sexier and gorier," Ball said about the new crop of episodes. "I think it's also funnier. I think it's also deeper. I just feel like the show is really finding its identity and delving into itself in a way that feels really organic. It definitely feels as if things are ramped up for season two."--Alan Ball http://thefutoncritic.com
