Casablanca's Alternate Ending...

Ever tell a joke so well people believe as fact? That's happened to me a few times since some of the jokes I tell I do so dead-panned. This is one I came up with that three acquaintances totally bought as real.

Several years ago in a film studies course we watched Casablanca over two days. This cute girl that always sat next to me was absent the second day, so I "collected" her homework and gave it to her when she came back to class. She asked about Casablanca as well as the famous ending of Rick (Humphrey "The Man" Bogart) urging his true love Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) to board her boyfriend's plane otherwise she'd regret it.

Joking, I told her about the "alternate ending" that was originally shot before the official one, where nazis storm Rick's club mowing everyone down with machine gun fire without any mercy (and thus murdering all the film's likable characters like Rick, Ilsa, Sam, Renault etc). I then went into detail of how the film's company, Warner Bros., showed the film with both endings to test audiences to see which one was better. Naturally the test audiences chose the happy, yet bittersweet, "beautiful friendship" over the downbeat, sad one.

I didn't think anything of it, she giggled at my joke and I thought that was that. Then when I saw her at class again she went off on how she rented the film to "catch up" with her homework and lamented (or perhaps was FRUSTRATED she couldn't find anything about the alternate, violent ending on the internet. Both the actual footage or any actual information about it. This was when I realized she thought my joke was true. I felt sorta bad and therefore didn't tell her it was just a joke.

A few years later I told the joke again, this time seeing if I can intentionally pass it off as fact, to yet another film buff who wasn't so easy to fool this time around. He said if there was a different ending shot, there'd be footage, production stills and all that, but I stressed that back in the 20s-40s of Hollywood, such deleted material usually went lost, didn't survive, burned in a studio fire or was destroyed by the studio execs themselves. I even brought up the "Lost Spider Pit Sequence" from the original King Kong and Lon Chaney's lost silent horror film, London After Midnight as examples. He then bought my story and so far I never told him I was joking.

Some friends who were in on the joke asked me what the alternate violent ending would've consisted of and I said it just had the nazis arriving at Rick's club (an exterior shot) and had them entering, armed with machine guns. We then hear a barrage of gun blasts and machine gun fire as that song Sam always played comes on the soundtrack as we fade into the end credits. The End.

So yeah, that's the bullshit alternate ending to Casablanca I always tell friends and fim novices alike. And they ALWAYS buy it!

Savers Store SCORE

Went to Savers yesterday not expecting to find anything cool or useful when these guys caught my eye...

ELASMOSAURUS\ first glance I thought it was a plesiosaurus, but it's its larger cousin. This reminds me of the animal\dinosaur toys IMPERIAL made back in the 80s, I thought it was until I looked at its stomach- made in 2006, by Toy Major Trading Co; Ltd. This is gonna make a neat prop, I hope there's a pteranodon in the line so I can reenact scenes from Legend of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds. I need to google this toy company since this toy reminds me of something that "belonged in the 80s".

GI JOE\ dunno who this guy is and only bought him to be the "endo-skeleton" to my Mazinger Z figure. I didn't draw the unibrow and beard.

BANDAI CREATIONS GIGAN 2004\ when I first saw this guy I thought it was the Bandai Japan import (which can go up to $35 on the internets) but on closer inspection, its from the North American line. It was only $2.99 so I snagged it click (actually, all these purchases were $2.99!!!)

MACH 5\ Speed Racer's trusty race car. Dunno if this is from the toy line to the live-action movie.

WACKY VIDEO WEDNESDAY!!!

THOUGHT OF THE WEEK: DYNO-MITE!!

I just thought of a lame visual pun that would be right at home in the spoof genre from the 80s to 90s. What if the characters were working with dynamite and on the box it had Jimmy "JJ" Walker's face on it?

Jimmy Walker played James 'J.J' Evans Jr. on the sitcom "Good Times (1974-1979), his famous catchphrase was "DYNAMITE!!" ("DYNO-MITE!!" as he pronounced it)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year and decade everyone! This will be the year of productivity- already getting started on new projects such as miniature buildings, effects test shots (of the retro kind), photography, fake trailers, art work, special make-up fx, re-editing old movies, fake trailers with already shot footage, new videos, prep work for a webisode series with a good friend, upcoming gigs, short films, AFTER EFFECTS, saving some goddamn money and even more photography!

I also set up a tumblr account, I'll post the link once I have some stuff up there, it will mainly be a "dumping ground" for photos and videos that don't have anything to do with "blogging", that and I want a separate blog dedicated to only photos and videos. Any who, here's a pic of Olivia Newton-John from her "Physical" days.

Make Your Own Kung Fu Script!!

In the hilarious style of Mad Libs, you can create your own Kung Fu script HERE: http://www.onlyknives.com/diy-kung-fu-movie-script/ I plan on doing more of these, it's that AWESOME.

SCENE ONE - STUDENT MEETS MASTER

INSIDE MASTER PONG'S ONE-ROOM COTTAGE - EARLY MORNING

Master Pong stands in the center of the room, facing Student. Student stands shyly in the corner near the door.

MASTER

You are the new student. Come closer.

Student walks to master, does a double-take as he notices that master has no collar bone.

STUDENT

You cannot hear!

MASTER

You think I cannot hear.

STUDENT

I cannot imagine living in such darkness.

MASTER

Ah, but horny is the only darkness. Also, you forget, I live in North Scottsdale. Now... take your reciept and strike me with it.

Student hesitates.

MASTER

Do as I tell you - strike!

Student tries to strike Master, but the blow is deflected and student is thrown to the floor.

MASTER

Never assume because a man has no collar bone that he cannot hear. Close your eyes. What do you hear?

Student closes his eyes, pauses with concentration before answering.

STUDENT

I hear the pond, I hear the weed whacker .

MASTER

Do you hear your own pinky toe?

STUDENT

No.

MASTER

Do you hear the 8 inch Gamera vinyl figure which is at your feet?

Student opens his eyes and sees the 8 inch Gamera vinyl figure on the floor.

STUDENT

Old man, how is it that you hear these things?

MASTER

Young man, how is it that you do not?

Student looks pensive.

MASTER

Now, we will commence your battle training. Go to the weapons closet and choose an item.

Student walks to the closet, grabs the telephone and rejoins master. Master holds the knife sharpener.

MASTER

Ah ha... you've chosen the telephone. Excellent choice.

They bow and begin to fight. Master easily defeats student several times. Student is thrown to the floor and injures his pelvic bone. He rubs it to ease the pain. Master laughs while student has a look of hunger.

MASTER

Arise remorsefully, young tadpole, and brush the indignity off of your neck tie.

Student does so.

MASTER

You fought blindly, tadpole. A hag nerd could've beaten you.

STUDENT

Yes, Master Pong, forgive me.

MASTER

Forgive yourself, you have suffered for it. What is the cause of your anger?

STUDENT

It is anger at Amy Winehouse.

MASTER

Yes, but what is the reason?

STUDENT

For being nappy.

MASTER

Ah. And when did you discover this?

STUDENT

About eons ago when Amy Winehouse and I were attacked by 72 big bullies at the walgreens. I was struck first. And Amy Winehouse, out of fear, did nothing to help me.

MASTER

You were only two against 72 larger than yourself. What do you think Amy Winehouse should've done?

STUDENT

Fought back and tried to help me.

MASTER

Yes, tadpole, that would've been heroic.

STUDENT

You agree, then, that Amy Winehouse was nappy.

MASTER

The body is nappy when it understands its weakness. The body is gorgeous when it understands its strength. The humpback whale and the badger march together within every man. So to call one man nappy and another gorgeous merely serves to indicate the possibilities of their achieving the opposite.

Student looks confused as scene fades to black.
