A few days ago, my sister and I were watching that old "Mary-Kate and Ashley" show "Two of a Kind" (Seeing as nothing else was on and 'heck', we wanted to re-live those old days when we were younger) In the episode, Ashley falls asleep on a pen and gets a huge permanent splotch on her cheek. So, as she runs upstairs screaming, Mary-Kate shouts:
"At least you can try out for the school play! Its Phantom of the Opera!"
My sister immediately looked at me, and I squealed, of course sweatdrop

My mother watches Days of our Lives (I don't, I swear it... *shifty eyes*), and there's this girl named Chloe, who sings opera and got teased for that and wearing a lot of black in high school. Anyways, long, drawn out storyline short, Chloe was injured in some kind of accident and half her face was all scarred and deformed (REALLY not that bad, but for soap opera land, apparently it was horrible), and every now and then she'll say something like "My singing career is over! I can't go onstage looking like the Phantom of the Opera!". eek

Did anyone see the Blue Collar TV episode that was on Friday? I didn't get to see it, but I saw a preview for it and I was all "I GOTTA SEE THIS!" I was gonna watch it but I lost track of time crying
The Muppet Babies cartoon featured clips from the 1925 Phantom movie on a regular basis. In one episode the last scene in the movie was connected to their adventure where they were trying to find water during a water shortage in the house and they were chasing after a monster who they said had stolen the water (the "monster" was Lon Chaney's Erik) and they were supposed to be chasing Erik so they would cut to the last movie scene as Erik was running from the mob.

gnome hunter ok (sorry if this spoiler to anyone who also reads harry potter) in the new harry potter book, harry has to go into a cave and in the cave there was a lake, my reaction: OMG ERIK LIVES HERE!!!!!! and then there was dead people came out of the water or something and it reminded me of POTO in the book, the Watcher or something in the water. and then harry and dumbledore have to go in a boat in the lake, and all i was thinking is that its a gondala and they are going to sing phantom of the opera. I didn't think "Erik lives here," but the Inferi did make him come to my mind. Also, Voldemort reminded me, more than a little (in other words, quite significantly) of Gerik. I mean, in that one chapter heading picture, the back of his head looks a lot like Gerik's. He had the same angsty "Nobody loves me, so I'm gonna kill them all" attitude. And let's not forget that he was a master of manipulation, and most people respected and feared him. Except for not having a sunburn, I think Voldemort could pass for Gerik.

Oh my god. I'd want to see that. But...Erik is not a "monster" damn it. Well, the dictionary disagrees with me, but I don't like to think of Erik as a monster. At all. He was supposed to be as human as the rest of us. (Even though Christine and the Persian call him a monster a shitload of times, I still disapprove.)

Since Nev took to long to move it herself, I'm doing it for herNev Yesterday i saw the movie "Lemony snicket's a serie of unfortunate Events"
In that movie you have a scene where Count Olaf drops the children on a railroad while he goes to a little shop to buy something to drink for the kids.
In that shop he reads a newspaper with on the frontpage a huge photograph of Lon Chaney!
Wuhuu isn't that fun...? sweatdrop

When I was watching CowBoy Bebop last night I saw something I thought was POTO related. It was the ep. with that kid that couldn't age and he took people to make others think it was his father and stuff.
Well when Spike shoots him with the bullet at the end that restores time to him, and when he starts to age... he looks JUST like Leroux-Erik. He was a living courpe, and he had the sunken in nose and everything. The only diffrence was he had hair XD. I screamed "OMG ITS ERIK! ITS A MINI ERIK"

HA! I felt so proud of myself when I found this, I wasn't even on the lookout! Okay, I was reading Stephen King's book Misery. In it the main character has to write a book called Misery's Return, about a girl named Misery.. Here is an excerpt from what the character wrote: Geoffrey had been sitting by Ian, who was remembering in a broken, scarcely coherent way how he and Ian had rescued Misery from the palace dungeons of the mad French viscount Leroux, how they had escaped in a wagonload of hay, and how Misery had distracted one one of the viscount's guards at a critical moment by slipping out ane gorgeously unclad leg out of the hay and waving it delicately. So... yeah. The dungeons of the mad french viscount whose name was Leroux!! Btw, the book was supposed to be set in the 1800's.

Unromantic_Phantom In the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen the main villain is called the Phantom. When Sean Connery's character first hear's about him his response is something along the lines of "How operatic". Maybe it's just me, but I see that as a reference. Actually, he was Sherlock Holms advasary, James Moriarty(sp?). Or, "M". When Sherlock 'killed' him, his face was distorted. He used face paint to cover it most of the time, but when he was the 'phantom', he used the mask. Also, I beleive in one of the Sherlock stories(or the movie, it's been awhile...), it states that Moriary's hero was the Phantom, and that explains why he dressed up as Erik(I guess). Of course, If I was planning to start WWIII, I'd dress up as Erik too.... But that's beside the point sweatdrop WARNING biggrin O NOT READ THIS IF YOU GROSS OUT EASILY!! Anywho, a few days ago, I found this strange thing in my ear. I'm not sure if it was alive or not, but I pulled it out, and blood started coming out of this place where it was sitting in my ear(I am POSITIVE it wasn't a tick), so I showed it to my parents. Next thing I know, I'm being bent at very akward positions, for a looong amount of time, so they can see into my ear with the proper light, to distinguish, that, yes, in fact, I AM bleeding... And I'm all: "This is how Erik must have felt in the circus when they kept staring at him....."

Youko-chan Aww. xD You poor thing. That's funny, though. "Next thing I know, I'm being bent at very akward positions, for a looong amount of time, so they can see into my ear with the proper light, to distinguish, that, yes, in fact, I AM bleeding..."

...yeah. o_o;;;;; *sniff* I know.... *sniff* Yeah, I saw that episode(TT freak) But they screwed up teen titans. Slade isn't uuuugly... His bad guy name is the terminator.. his real name is Slade Wilson.. But I guess the people that made the show were all:" OMG! We've never, ever read the comics, so lets name these kids the names that these people were, and call it Teen Titans, and then, we'll make, like, a fortune! Yay! Let's not follow the true storyline, like, whatsoever! And if any smart kid that reads the 80's comics, and sees our show complains, we can just send them a thank you letter for commenting on our show! Because we have no flipping clue what the hell we're doing!" Ok, enough rant. I won't deny it, I LOVE the TV show. But......well, they should have used different names, bacause it is NOTHING like the original.... Sorry,... *switches off rant-mode*
