  1. ich liebe diesen Film immer noch


    Ja sicher, Pulp Fiction ist in so manchen Dingen aus heutiger Sicht nicht so ganz korrekt, aber als er 1994 heraus kam, war das gerade um meinen 18. Geburtstag herum und so wurde er zu einem Teil meines Erwachsenwerdens.

  2. Astounding vol. 63, no. 3 (May 1959)

    I like it, but I feel like it doesn't quite line up. If we took the sword away, would his features be lined up correctly?

    Also is the footprint part of it?

  3. Worlds of IF (January 1969)

    The composition is great, showing us the scale of everything, the power of the space ship we're looking out of.

    The colours are so much of the time. Was there a whole new printing technology introduced at the end of the 60s?

  5. Weird Tales vol. 7, no. 2 (February 1926)

    Somehow, although it's clearly a bolt of lightning, it seems like it's not that deadly. It looks like it's made of something not electricity, anyway.

    Is he on a boat? By the docks? What's going on with that netting in the background?

  6. Creepy no. 89 (1977)

    Is the standing soldier a monster? He kind of looks creepy, but that's mostly the grimace. Why is the fallen comrade so brightly coloured?

    It's a great composition, great lighting. The diagonals make for more drama.

  7. Science Wonder Stories vol. 1, no. 7 (December 1929)

    If the guys were just … floating there in the sky, it would be one thing, but they are clearly sitting, in very cheap chairs, and their accoutrements are clearly on a floor.

    So they're accessing Poundshop Minas Tirith remotely?

  8. Science Fiction Stories vol. 7, no. 1 (July 1956)

    Ugly and incomprehensible, what can I say? Is she in a bottle, or is the shape and the, uh, bottle-green colour giving me that impression?

    Literally looks like two different things slapped together at the last moment.

  9. Science Fiction Stories vol. 8, no. 3 (November 1957)

    Oh how we love an Evil Plant here at SFMCP Inc.

    I mean we don't know that it's a plant, there could be an octopus creature at the other end of the tendril-tentacle, but it's green and plant-like.

  10. Weird Tales vol. 18, no. 2 (September 1931)

    Of all the weird stuff in this one, I'm most obsessed by the creature being ridden. A giant tapir? An elongated capybara? A land-plesiosaur?

  11. Time for another Writing the Occult: Time & Place session debrief, and this time it's all that Steve Toase has planned for us on 5 September...

    Steve's a fan of the biker books of 1970s pulp fiction - in fact, he often covers them on his own blog - but what can we as creators learn from them underneath all the pulp-ness?

  12. Weird Tales vol. 9, no. 3 (March 1927)

    What a bizarre composition, wasting so much space at the top. I honestly don't know what's going on at the top, just … white and blue stuff. Is there maybe an overturned table at the bottom? It's a unique magazine for sure.

  14. Creepy no. 10 (1966)

    Simply terrific composition, you can't fault Frazetta for laying out a scene, and the lighting and colours are all great too.

    I would love a huge version of this on my wall.

  15. Amazing Stories vol. 14, no. 10 1940 10 Ziff Davis (October 1940)

    Did the robot just emerge from that … landing pod? … and immediately snatch up that poor woman? I don't know about the timeline here.

    ED EARL REPP just has to be an anagram, right? The author's name is "Lee Draper"? Yes I have an anagram tool constantly in my bookmarks.

  16. Imagination vol. 5, no. 10 (October 1954)

    Wow, no idea what's going on, why "toffee", why is there a police officer in underwear, and frankly, how is that dress even staying on?

  17. Weird Tales vol. 14, no. 4 (October 1929)

    Hugh Rankin, the artist, had seemingly forgotten all he knew about human anatomy the day he drew this. I'm concerned the guillotine won't even work the first time!

  18. "Jungle Boogie" is a #funk record by #KoolAndTheGang from their 1973 album #WildAndPeaceful. It reached number four as a single, and became very popular in nightclubs. Billboard ranked it as the #number12SingleFor1974, despite as many as 36 No. 1 singles that year. In 1994, "Jungle Boogie" was repopularized on #theSoundtrack of the film #PulpFiction. It was also used in promo packages by wrestling promotion #ExtremeChampionshipWrestling in the mid-1990s. In 1992.

  19. Worlds of IF (August 1956)

    No action, nothing which indicates scale, the whole thing is a little static and dull. Also not a satellite? I like the two little armatures or whatever you call them, they break up the image nicely.

  20. Creepy no. 101 (1978)

    It's hard to put a finger on it exactly but this guy has a very 70s look, doesn't he? His jawline is a 70s jawline.

    I had to look up when the original "Jaws" movie came out, it was 1975. We've all been obsessed by sharks ever since.
