I can certainly see and get on board with the influences of Murnau’s “Nosferatu”, Cocteau’s “La Belle et la Bete” and the work of Gustave Dore (see my prior tweet for my ramblings/video on his illustrations) that encapsulate the ‘adult’ fairytale tone and texture.

I recall Jodorowsky talking on the Dune documentary about Moebius’ super fast ability to draw almost anything in the early/mid 1970s…

‘He was like a machine… bzzzzzzzz…’

If we were going to apply this to a Dune analogy in the age of AI art, then Moebius was an ‘Art Mentat.’

Artwork created by human hands, eyes and a lifetime of experience and skill and not an AI, word prompted algorithm…

The beauty of Moebius’ otherworldly artwork.

Never ceases to transport me into another dimension of hand crafted possibilities and learning.

Well that was a fun rewatch of “Kelly’s Heroes” after not seeing it for several decades. My only quibbles with it is that it drags a little in the middle and the tone sometimes gets confused between satire and straight war movie. I read that this was due to the producer who...

Fantastic to revisit Michael Mann’s “Heat” after so many years (via the new 4K release). Still such a tour de force of an adult thriller, it makes so many modern thrillers feel like baby pictures in comparison. The 3hr runtime feels earned with strands paying off in complexity.

The Daleks as redesigned for Japan in 1980 via a series of translated Japanese book releases… just in case anyone was wondering.

The story goes, while working on “The Keep” Mann saw “The Snowman” on TV while in England and was captivated by the song and wanted a reworked version of the theme.

Resulting in an electronic prog rock epic to accompany the fantastical otherworldly operatic climax of the film.

Briggs’ biggest success was “The Snowman.” He professes to actually hate Christmas and found the screen adaptation to be ‘corny.’
‘I don’t like the Christmas thing at all. It’s so full of anxiety – have I got enough stuff? Where am I going to go? What should I get for presents?”

I would eagerly anticipate each magazine, devouring each page like some sort of monthly gaming bible… Dreaming of the chance of working on my own games, which I did as soon I left school at the age of 17.

The exterior paintings are the work of prolific artist Oliver Frey. Frey also illustrated the interior pages with fun cartoon characters that danced across the reviews and articles, as if he had doodled onto the final print pages. The fun, care and attention to detail was superb.
