Timothy Carey Never Gets Old

He's an old Ellis Fave...I remember Ellis bringing over a bootleg copy of "World's Greatest Sinner" to Blair and my tiny North Hollywood apartment...we all sat on the edge of our bed and watched it on our new big screen TV.

Lots of laughs (and a few uncomfortable moments!).

Kubrik's "The Killing" was on tonight. Had to take a break and watch Timothy do his thing. The whole parking lot attendant vignette...so poignant. Most memorable thing about the movie. James Edwards played the attendant.


Carey's character name was Nikki Arcane--!!

(I'm making a GIF of my last round of boards...planning to post it here. I got bounced from the project, so fuck 'em. Look for it tomorrow.)

I love these drawings! Yes.

You know who else loves Timothy Carey? Crazy James Ellroy. L A Confidential. Can we safely say there will never be another Timothy Carey? Yes we can.

"Red Lightning."

I'm going to shoot him with my M1.

Sorry the storyboard job is kaput. Like you say "Fuck 'em." It may be time for some fist action on saying fuck em on my end. Just for the hell of it. My good bye as I embark on purely freelance. Hopefully Idon't break up the hands too bad.

ELZ--VIOLENCE IS NEVER D ANSWER!

Ask Tom Moon.

Ask me.

Better to KNOW IN YR HEART you coulda pummeled 'em...but din't.

I'm serious.

p.s. hand injuries area real concern. As is jail.

Looking forward to that Gif. The person that has been killing it with little gifs is Kali on her tumblr.

The caption on the tumblr is- Eyeballed some Clampett animation for this silly Maude Macher dance!

Violence is often the answer.
In this case the guy is a bully that likes to back people down and then brag about it. It will be two old men going at it. Shouldn't last long.

Davis Chino said...

It's obvious "The Timothy Carey Story" biopic needs to be made....

The perfect vehicle for a Nicholas Cage comeback.

MrGoodson2 said...

Cage would be great.

Davis Chino said...

Elz! Don't play their game!

Winning is the best revenge.

I can't condone violence...but it does feel good to pop someone who deserves it.

Nic Cage doesn't need a comeback... he's still making movies... and really bad decisions about which movies to be in.

Rickart said...

Oh, and fun drawings as always, Mr. Marty. I look forward to seeing more of your recent gig (fuck 'em!).

I take all my social cues from the Parisian Tornado.

Tom Moon said...

Ellis. No fisticuffs. You know better. Instead, a pull to closed guard followed by a kimura. After the elbow dislocates, single arm drag to take the back and a rear naked choke. Make sure to cut off the carotid and not the airway. This should save your hands and his head from any blunt force trauma.

I'm kidding! I'm kidding! Don't do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tom Moon said...

Look forward to seeing your boards Marty. Your ex-clients obviously have no idea what they are doing to have gotten rid of you.

Tom Moon said...

Ellis, what does a sixty-year-old bully do or say to provoke people? "Hey Goodson, you're standing in my spot?" Or "Gimme your lunch money Shorty." Or "Did I see you talkin' to my gal the other day?"

He gets in peoples face and yells at them for imagined slights in his workaday world. He's given me the anger. But if he gives me the "cocksucker" he gave another guy that works there, it's on. I'll just say it was fighting words.

He's done it to

1 2 members of female management
2 even more elderly co-workers
3 the cocksucker victim
4. and the guy buying my Supergirl art

He has made it clear by exploration with his mapping of friends vs non friends that I'm on the list.

Bully's just want trophies that they back off. They don't want a fight.


MrGoodson2 said...

The fight will get jujitsu centric quickly Tom. If I have anything to do with it.

MrGoodson2 said...

I may practice slapping- to get it started.

Tom Moon said...

He sure sounds like a jerk. Well, the trouble with fighting old guys is that if he has a heart attack in the middle of it all, then it's manslaughter, or something like that, right? That would put a real damper on your future plans. Defense lawyers are expensive.

Or he could have/fake a spinal injury and sue you. he sounds like just the kind of guy to do something like that. Maybe umm... make sure you're not the one who initiates it.

MrGoodson2 said...

You're right Tom. And the funny thing is today, It's like Dr Hyde wanted to do something I'm not the least bit interested ind doing. Too much caffeine maybe. Too close to the break from work.
