Thumper looks about as exhausted as I have been lately. Luckily the holiday rush is almost over and I should have more free time to blog soon!
But until then take a look at the only thing I've had time to draw in December...boy that's sad... Merry Christmas from The Monarch & Dr. Mrs. The Monarch :) It's my take on them so they are not exactly on model. When I get a chance to color it I'll post a less crappy photo.

Pop Culture up that Christmas Celebration!
Having worked a career in retail has pretty much killed any positive feelings I had for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. The never ending insane busy atmosphere of the various stores I've worked in makes it feel like I spend months preparing for the big day with your family so when it finally comes it just feels like an anti-climax. No celebration can live up to that build.
About the only part of the holiday I enjoy anymore is the pop culture aspect; the movies, the TV and many of the commercials (I love those Christmas themed Coke commercials) and this year there is a new book to help you navigate through some of the unusual and overlooked Christmas entertainment! It's called The Christmas TV Companion: a Guide to Cult Classics, Strange Specials & Outrageous Oddities by Joanna Wilson.
The book covers pretty much all genres, TV and movies, live-action and animation, stuff you've heard of and a lot more you probably haven't. I think one of the things I enjoyed most about reading the book was being reminded of all the Christmas themed episodes I had seen over the years and completely forgotten (by the way I would avoid the 1959 Mexican movie Santa Claus if you don't want to have nightmares for the next 6 months :)! More than just another encyclopedic listing of TV shows, the book offers commentary, trivia and themed suggestions for making your own marathons. I've been making a list of the programs I want to check out and programming the TIVO to find and record those shows. (I wish someone out there still showed Whoops! Haven't seen that since it first aired and I'd really love to check out their post-apocalyptic take on the holiday.)
I also need to see the 2005 Dennis Leary Merry Fuckin' Christmas Special which apparently has a segment with William Shatner called Christmas with Mr. Shatner in which he mocks kids letters to Santa! HILARIOUS! Speaking of Star Trek there is a whole section of the book devoted to holiday programming featuring Trek actors. There is also a section devoted to the Star Wars holiday special and if you've never seen the SW holiday special this is just enough of a taste. I promise you, you do not want to see it, it's long boring and silly...not in a good way :)
In any case it's a very cool book that I think you should check out if you dig holiday themed movies and TV! It would also make a cool Christmas gift and that's a recommendation from someone who has spent the last 15 years working in book stores :)

I'm back, kind of ...
It was been a pretty grueling few weeks, between the day job (ah the joys of being a retail slave) and a few personal matters I have just been too busy/ distracted to post but I'm back sort of. At least I plan to post when I am able and get back to regular posting and start the movie quizzes back up after the holidays are over. Until my next free moment to post here is a pretty Christmassy pin-up girl to tide you over ;)

Any person who wins 5 weeks (consecutive or non-consecutive) will earn a Movie Master award and must then refrain from guessing for 5 weeks.
Here we go:
1. "If I die, I'm sorry for all the bad things I did to you. And if I live, I'm sorry for all the bad things I'm gonna do to you."
2. "I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them." (Payo)
3. "They say that the best blaze burns brightest when circumstances are at their worst."
"Yeah, but no one really believes that." (Crash Chloride)
4. "I'm just a bloody normal bloke. A normal bloke who likes a bit of torture."
5. "You know how you smoke out a sniper? You send a guy out in the open and you see if he gets shot. They thought that one up at West Point." (Payo)
6. "Until mankind is peaceful enough not to have violence on the news, there's no point in taking it out of shows that need it for entertainment value."
7. "You know, that was the time I was most frightened... waitin' for my turn. I'll never put on a lifejacket again." (Payo)

11. "You fuckers think just because a guy reads comics he can't start some shit?"

13. "What was that about hats, again?"

15. "Get old, you can't even cuss someone and have it bother 'em. Everything you do is either worthless or sadly amusing."
16. "The video arcade is down the street. Here we just sell small rectangular objects. They're called books. They require a little effort on your part, and make no bee-bee-bee-bee-beeps." Nathan
17. "God put that rock there for a reason and I don't think we should move it." (Payo)
18. "We may not like living together, but dying together isn't going to solve anything." (Payo)
19. "Hallelujah! Mary loved her son; why don't my mother love me?" RAB
20. "Relatively soon, I will die. Maybe in 20 years, maybe tomorrow, it doesn't matter. Once I am dead and everyone who knew me dies too, it will be as though I never existed. What difference has my life made to anyone? None that I can think of. None at all." (Payo)
**Update**
First off thanks to SamuraiFrog for helping me out with last week's quiz! As if the sporadic blogging doesn't make it obvious enough I have been soooo busy lately! Right now I am working about 60 hours a week at the day job and spending what little free time I have working on commissions. So the quote quiz is going on hiatus for a few weeks til things calm down a bit. It will return...when my sanity returns but until then...
Now the winner! Congrats to Payo! Who wins his second quiz way to go! I bow to your movie know-how! You may collect your award below:
The quiz will return... but for now the answers are in the comments :)

No quiz today
It's been a busy week my Birthday was Sunday and I had family in and out over the last couple days...Oh and I just got home from working a 12 hour shift with no break, hooray! In any case I am completely brain dead and just don't have the energy to put a quiz together tonight...so no quiz. Instead I'll just post some pretty, pretty pictures...like this one :) I drew this awhile back and since Halloween is only a few days away it seemed appropriate!

Settling the Lynda Carter Debate
A couple of years ago I had a Wonder Woman theme week here on The Skullcave. As part of the celebration I posted a short biography, some videos and a few pictures of the amazingly wonderful Lynda Carter! One of the photos included in the post was a "nude" of Miss Carter that didn't exactly look real, but didn't exactly look fake either. So I posed the question, was the photo real?
Over the last couple years there has been a small ongoing debate over whether or not the photo was real. The theories ranged from no it wasn't real, but an early photo manipulation that appeared in a fake Playboy magazine used in the movie Apocalypse Now. To being an entirely real photo from an unpublished Playboy set.
If you want to read the original post/ comments click here.
In any case the debate gets pretty involved but a recent addition from an anonymous commenter may finally answer the question. An anonymous comment that seems to come from Lynda Carter herself. (BTW I know it's the internet and that anyone could have left the comment but it seems a bit legit)
"I heard about this from a friend of my son. To clear it up that photo is not me! The real photo is in Hugh Hefners vault with instructions it's to be destroyed upon his death. I regret some of my poor decisions in my early days but that is how we learn- from our mistakes."
And I just wanted to thank Lynda for taking the time to answer!

Guess That Movie! Week 105: Early Horror Movie Edition
For the third week in a row, SamuraiFrog filling in. I can't believe how Becca's being run ragged by work, and this is the least I can do to help her out: keeping the movie quote quiz going.

Vampirella!
This is a fab picture! They really got the costume looking right here. Say does anyone know if that is Brinke Stevens? It kind of looks like a very young Brinke.
While we are on the topic of Vampie I thought I'd post this cover art with a Vampirella-a-like and apparently Peter O'Toole...weird but wonderful!
