Jack? Jack Skelett? No, Jack Nicholson. REDRUM!!

If you didn't notice from the title, I'm looking at a Jack Nicholson page on wikipedia. For some reason I have issues writing his last name, so I'm going to avoid it as much as possible.

I haven't seen a lot of movies with him in it, although I know he's been in a lot (thank you, wikipedia, for this information). I've seen One Flew Over the Cockoo's Nest (well...part of it. A middlish part. I kind of want to see the whole thing. I really want to see the whole thing), The Shining (ahem...REDRUM REDRUM REDRUM REDRUM REDRUM REDRUM) and two or three minutes of the Batman movie where he's the Joker. I haven't seen much of his stuff. well, it's not his stuff, exactly. It's actually the producer's stuff. But he's in it. Which makes him special. Not that he wasn't special before.

Ahem.

So I'm having this sort of day...

I've been having a Disney marathon all day. I started with 101 Dalmatians, went on to Oliver in Company, then to Tarzan. At the moment, I'm watching Mulan (who has a widow's peak--thank you Miss McGill for teaching me about genetics). It's while the leader guy from the army is singing about all his soilders being weak and not able to be as all cool and badass as him.

Have you every noticed how the singers from Disney movies are much better singers than any of our social singers nowadays? (e.g.~BD Wong who plays Shang, the leader guy from the army is better than Justin Bieber by miles...or kilometers, depending on where you live).

By the way, I've noticed that every time I watch a Disney or Pixar movie, I noticed something new each time. For example, speaking of where you live, when I last watched Monsters, Inc, I was wondering how all the doors lined up so it was nighttime on the other side. I mean, right? It's not nighttime at the same time all around the world at once, right? Well, remember near the beginning, where we see a big map of the world before they start scaring? Well, yeah, that red line? That hilights where they're going to in the world. Never noticed that.

Oh! Also, there's one voice in every single Pixar movie created to date. It's the voice of John Ratzenberger. He's actually scary to look at. Like, he's pretty dern terrifying if you look at him. He's got crowsfeet. Not that wrinkles are scary. Ross had wrinkles for Jesus Christ Superstar this year, and Ross isn't scary. Well, not mostly.

Ahem.
