Larry Semon (West Point, 16 luglio 1889 -- Victorville, 8 ottobre 1928) , in Italia conosciuto come Ridolini, è stato un attore, produttore cinematografico e regista statunitense nell'epoca del film muto.Larry SemonLarry SemonMaschera caratteristica, clown per eccellenza: viso infarinato, candido, su cui campeggia un naso smisurato e ricurvo, due occhi tondi in un viso affilato, pantaloni sorretti altissimi appena sotto le ascelle ma che lasciano scoperte le caviglie ed un cappellaccio che non casca mai nemmeno nelle ardite acrobazie, Larry Semon all'apice della sua carriera seppe rivaleggiare alla pari con i grandi della commedia: Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton, contendendosi i favori del pubblico. In particolare amato per il suo stile semplice, tutto gags, azione, movimento, certo meno poetico del grande Charlot ma in compenso immediatamente accessibile. Oggi ritenuto, a torto, un comico minore, ma la sua indubbia levatura artistica ne perpetua la memoria. [ More Detail ]

Name: LloydAge: Unknown (doesn't say)Race: WinglyHometown: UnknownWeapon of Choice: Dragon BusterLloyd starts out in the game as the Hooded Man and is the one behind Shana's kidnapping, Lavitz' death, and the stealing of the Divine Moon objects, which he is using to create his utopia. Dart and company will be chasing Lloyd for most of the game.Lloyd is strong and dangerous, carrying with him the Dragon Buster, a sword made by the ancient Winglies used specifically for killing dragons and Dragoons. Though he joins the party temporarily about halfway through the game (after he is defeated in Fort Flanvel), he is not a playable character. (Too bad...)However, as bad as he may seem, he appears to have a special feeling towards Wink, the Third Sacred Sister of Mille Seseau. ;) (at least I like to think so...) And although he plays the "bad guy" for most of the game, he DOES realize his faults, and tries to help the Dragoons at several points afterwards. The Legend of Dragoon is a trademark of Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) Inc. [ More Detail ]

http://AddictiveComics.com brought you this clip of the wonderful Buster Keaton from his 1920 movie, "One Week".Buster Keaton was one of the biggest stars of the Silent Film era. From the same "school" of physical comedy as Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd and Fatty Arbuckle, he did all his own stunts. Keep that in mind as you watch this clip. Today we are so accustomed to seeing the fantastic on film through the creation of stunt doubles, camera tricks, special effects or computer generation that it is hard to appreciate the incredible timing and courage that this stunt required.What does this clip of Buster Keaton have to do with Comics?Not a blessed thing.We just thought you would enjoy it....IF you enjoy online comics, horror adventure stories or fantastic artwork, maybe you would like to check out our online comics at http://AddictiveComics.com Bestselling Author and Podcaster, Scott Sigler (Infected, Ancestor, Earthcore, The Rookie), has teamed up with Comic Artist, Mark Hester to adapt his Techno-Horror stories into the Webcomic format.

This is a restored version of BLISS that was released on 9.5mm Pathex in 1917. The beginning of this version up to the title "Harold has met the Only Girl..." and everything after the intertitle "Five telephone calls in as many hours..." near the end of the film, was taken from the film sold as GIVE AND TAKE on 9.5mm Pathex, but which was in fact just scenes taken from the film BLISS. This version compiles all the footage from both films. The public domain music used on these films was then re-edited to fit this new version. Now enjoy! [ More Detail ]
