Walt Disney had always wanted to make a film based on the Oz stories. In 1954, when the movie rights to various Oz books became available, Walt purchased them. Soon, scripts were written for a movie in “Widescreen, color, the works..” But for some reason it was never made. Pretty incredible how much they hyped it.
Unfunny local comedian, polluting cable access with a shitty joke about an empty condom machine.. used in the infamous, underground cult classic “Please Stand By”..
Here is a ridiculous scene from 1980s ABC after school special Ace Hits the Big Time. A gang dressed in all purple fights the older brother from Mr. Belevedere in a choreographed dance that makes Brokeback Mountain looks straight.
The Origin of the Clayface -Batman the Animated series. In the episode “Feat of Clay” he is introduced as Matt Hagen (a nod to the second Clayface), a past-his-prime actor (a nod to the first Clayface) who had been disfigured in a horrible car accident (a nod to the third Clayface). While recovering in a burn clinic, he is approached by corrupt businessman Roland Daggett, who makes him a test subject for a compound called “Renuyu” (pronounced “Renew You”) that he promises will immediately restore his youthful good looks (a nod to the fourth Clayface). In exchange, Hagen must impersonate people in illegal roles for Daggett. He greatly resents this, but is forced to comply, as the Renuyu chemical is extremely addictive. Daggett has Hagen impersonate Bruce Wayne in order to obtain documents from Lucius Fox, who is inadvertently wounded; Bruce Wayne is arrested for assault. Hagen, attempting to steal a large quantity of Renuyu from Daggett’s compound, is seized by Daggett’s henchmen; they then try to kill Hagen by forcing him to ingest an entire canister of the compound. Rather than kill him, however, the overdose saturates every cell in his body, turning him into a bulky and misshapen clay like form who can, for short periods of time, shapeshift into anything or anybody he wishes. After trying to get revenge on Daggett, he is stopped by Batman and, upon being caught, fakes his death.
Here she is, Dori (who later changed her name to “Reba,” due to her undying fandom towards Reba Mcentire) singing an original song while her conjoined twin, sits patiently, and even dances!
