The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

Tell a person that you're the Metatron and they stare at you blankly. Mention something out of a Charlton Heston movie and suddenly everybody is a theology scholar.

I'm inclined to agree.
It's a very underrated film, with surprising amounts of theological depth underneath all the dick jokes.

I loved him in everything he did I don't ever recall him giving a poor performance. He could chill you at ten paces without speaking. He even looked uncannily like Eamon DeValera in Michael Collins. Huge loss
My favourite Alan Rickman story - and one that's not well (or at all) known, is from when they were shooting Michael Collins. A guy I worked with at the time went down to see if he could get in as an extra, and during one scene one of the other extras fixes Rickman with a steely glare and declares:
"You're not Eamonn De Valera".
(drum roll)
"You're THE SHERIFF OF NOTTINGHAM!"
Cue uproarious laughter, etc. Wrecked the scene, of course.

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
Wait till next goal of Aaron Ramsey and add a day max...Phil wrote:David Bowie dead at 69. Alan Rickman dead at 69. Donald Trump alive at 69.
