MJOLNIR AT THE MOVIES HALLOWEEN SPECIAL

Just in time for Samhain, it's a Mjolnir at the Movies Halloween special, with three scary evil far right monsters taking you through the Halloween film franchise. In the programme, we discuss the highs and lows, particularly why Rob Zombie's Leftist propaganda reboots are a bag of bollocks, why the first film is so effective, why Halloween III might be the best of all despite a poor box office performance, as well as the current topic of cultural appropriation. Please subscribe to the channel and, if you're feeling really generous this Samhain, leave a like so that we don't come round trick or treating.

EMILY DAWES' FAUX PAS & THE ROTHENSTEIN MURAL

The leader of Southampton University's student union Emily Dawes has come under fire for threatening to paint over the Rothenstein Mural which was given to the university by the artist William Rothenstein's son in 1959 and has been housed in the Senate Room since 2014 to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War, the soldiers of which the mural commemorates. The mural depicts a line of scholars receiving their degrees, their academic gowns covering their khaki uniforms. Among those depicted are the then Chancellors and Vice Chancellors of Oxford University and the poet Robert Bridges. Dawes railed against the mural on Twitter because it only portrayed white men and in a fit of virtue signalling stated: 

 

"Mark my words - we're taking down the mural of white men in the uni senate room, even if I have to paint over it myself."


This is typical standard feminist hatred of which the establishment approves, yet Dawes has been reprimanded by both university and media, so what is the problem?

SLEIGHT OF HAND

The basic premise of all trickery, which the trickster often condescends to call magic, is to distract the audience's attention one way while the deceit or sleight of hand is carried out in the opposing direction. 'Magicians', tricksters in reality, have been doing it on streets, in theatres and music halls and on televisions for years. Penn and Teller have been one of the biggest double acts since the 1990s, when they started appearing regularly on their own television shows. Currently, they have a series in both the US and the UK called Fool Us, in which 'magicians' are invited to perform tricks in an attempt to baffle the experienced duo in how the trick was done. There is, however, trickery going on at the meta-level of the programme, which is directed by a certain (((Dennis Rosenblatt)))....

ERKENBRAND PODCAST: AN INTRODUCTION TO POETRY

I was back with the Erkenbrand team for a podcast about the importance of poetry, hosted by Mr H, with whom I did the excellent Erkenbrand series on classical music. Joining us was Holly Hazeltree, whose fledgeling Youtube channel and blog are already very informative, even if she is more sympathetic to Christianity than I am. Please consider subscribing to her channel to give her some encouragement. There are, after all, very few allegedly nationalist channels with anything approaching a high level of content, most tending to be style over substance. Erkenbrand's channel tends to have both, with excellent production and content, so that's another one to subscribe to, and you might even like to subscribe to my own.... This podcast concentrates on European poetry, its history and its relevance and function for a people. Erkenbrand will also be producing Dutch language shows on specific poets.

MJOLNIR AT THE MOVIES EPISODE VIII: EXCALIBUR

Antoine Fuqua, you're not the one. Indeed, we try to steer clear of the great steaming turd that was 2004's King Arthur, as we indulge ourselves in the greatest cinematic version of the Arthurian legend ever made - and perhaps ever will be made - John Boorman's epic masterpiece Excalibur. In this podcast Neil and I are joined by film buff and fellow traveller James, who will be a regular member of the team. We try not to get over-excited by this film, but it's very difficult, so expect lots of superlatives as we tackle the film's major themes and dichotomies of Christianity vs Paganism, Nature vs civilization, masculinity and femininity, nationalism, myth and art. Is this the most Rightist film ever?

FRENCH SYNTH POP & AN OPPORTUNITY IN A MUSICAL PROJECT

Having driven the length and breadth of Western Europe and in parts of the East, one thing has struck me on the long hours on the road: French radio is probably the worst in Europe. Most of it consists of bourgeois chatter, like their television. French radio also has a commitment to 'French' songs, largely meaning songs in the French language and generally meaning rap music, which is not French at all. This has been going on for quite some time; during the 1980s there seemed to be a transition from the indigenous French tradition of the chanson, a modernised form of lyric-driven song that traced its roots as far back as the ancient troubadours of the Middle Ages and sung by the likes of Jaques Brel, Édith Piaf, Dalida, Léo Ferré and Charles Aznavour, who died on Monday; a transition to Black American influenced rap and hip-hop that gained in ascendancy just as the non-White population began to explode in mainland France. Zouk also rose at the time, coming as it did from the French Antilles and was organic to that section of the population, but synth pop, which emerged during the 1970s, was completely overlooked.

TRANSSEXUALITY VS FEMINISM VS THE RADICAL RIGHT

Norman Bates has been created, a mentally deranged man dressing up as mother. There are many like Robert Bloch's character; some like Liam Suleman / Lucy Edwards, William / Gillian Jaggs, Kayleigh-Louise Woods / Kyle Lockwood have all murdered women exactly like the character; others behave in other violent and depraved ways like Miguel / Michelle Martinez, Kim Leverton, Gary / Carys Cooper who have all sexually assaulted children; still others are non-violent, but equally psychologically damaged. Let us be honest, all who identify themselves as 'trans', 'genderqueer', 'LGBT', 'gender fluid', 'gender non-binary' and all the rest of the newspeak terms that have emerged over the past 50 years, have serious psychological problems. A database has been compiled of crimes by 'trans' persons, which can be accessed by clicking this link. One notes that they are overwhelmingly born white and male. But how did all this come about and how can we fix an ever growing problem?
