Heaven Birthday, John Candy 🕯️
Born 76 years ago today
The legendary comedic actor has a place in NFL history
With three minutes left in Super Bowl XXIII, 49ers quarterback Joe Montana spots Candy standing behind the far end zone and calmly points him out to teammate Harris Barton.
Joe Cool then engineers an epic 92-yard title-winning drive.

Here’s a story for you. We started filming without owning the title and had to do alternates.
Taft Broadcasting owned the title Ghostbusters as part of their half-hour sitcom starring Larry Storch and Forrest Tucker (F-Troop) and a gorilla chasing ghosts. I had never heard of it. They didn’t have proton packs or Bill Murray. Columbia paid $500,000 to buy the name, but they really should have paid Dean Martin, from whom I first heard the term.
In the film Scared Stiff (1953), he and Jerry Lewis (check out his acrobatic stair descent) are in an old haunted castle, and Lizabeth Scott asks Dean: “Who are you guys?” And Dean answers: “You’ve heard of Trustbusters and Gangbusters, we’re Ghostbusters!”
For my research writing the first movie, I watched every single ‘ghost’ comedy ever made. Bowery Boys, Hope and Crosby, Abbot and Costello, Martin and Lewis all did such films.
Happy Halloween 2026.

1er novembre 1973, John, George et Ringo poursuivent Allen Klein en justice pour dénoncer les contrats qui les lient, notamment et surtout celui qui concernait les Beatles depuis 1969.
Les accusations sont graves : mauvaise gestion financière et surtout détournement de fonds.
Depuis 1969, Paul avait été le seul à émettre plus que des doutes sur Allen Klein, le soupçonnant d'être un homme d'affaires douteux. Face au refus des trois autres d'écarter Klein, Paul avait finalement dû se résoudre à attaquer ses propres partenaires en justice fin 1970 pour dissoudre légalement le partenariat des Beatles et protéger le catalogue du groupe des mains de Klein.
Pendant plus de trois ans, Paul avait été dépeint par la presse et le public comme le "méchant" responsable de la rupture officielle du groupe. Voir John, George et Ringo réaliser leur erreur a été pour lui une confirmation qu'il avait eu raison dès le départ.
Avec le recul, Paul racontera plus tard qu'il n'a pas pu s'empêcher de ressentir une pointe de triomphe ironique lorsque les trois autres sont venus le rejoindre dans la bataille juridique contre Klein.
Dans plusieurs entretiens ultérieurs, Paul a résumé la situation avec pragmatisme : il savait qu'il avait pris la décision la plus impopulaire à l'époque mais que c'était la seule manière d'éviter que le patrimoine financier et musical des Beatles ne soit totalement absorbé.
Le fait que John, George et Ringo poursuivent Klein à leur tour validait définitivement sa stratégie juridique.

Paul McCartney lost his mother when he was 14. More than a decade later, she appeared to him in a dream. When he woke up, he went to the piano and wrote “Let It Be.”
His mother, Mary, died in 1956 after a battle with breast cancer. She never got to see the Beatles become the biggest band in the world.
Years later, Paul was exhausted. He says he had been drinking, staying out late and overdoing everything.
Then he had a dream about her.
In the video below, McCartney describes how it felt to see his mother again. In the dream, she seemed to know he was stressed and reassured him: “Don’t worry, it’s gonna be fine. Just let it be.”
He woke up feeling comforted. Then he remembered what she had said and thought it could be the beginning of a song.
That’s where the “Mother Mary” in Let It Be came from: Paul’s own mother.
The Beatles released the song in 1970, shortly before McCartney announced he was leaving the band. It became one of their most enduring recordings.
For years, people have turned to it when they needed comfort. It began with Paul hearing words of comfort from someone he had lost.

I am deeply saddened to learn of Walter Koenig’s passing.
Although we did not know each other well away from the set, we shared the later seasons of the original Star Trek series and the six films that followed.
What I observed, and what so many fans have expressed over the years, was a man who genuinely loved the Star Trek community.
At conventions, Walter was rarely content to remain behind a signing table. He preferred to be among the people who had kept Star Trek alive for so many decades.
That kind of genuine connection is rare, and it will be remembered by everyone who came into contact with him.
My condolences to his family, his friends, and the countless fans whose lives he touched.

Last Thursday made it 44 years since the release of 'First Blood'. When Sylvester Stallone joined the Rich Eisen Show a few weeks ago he told us the story of how he changed the ending of the film, got sued, and then his ending ultimately ended up making the final cut.
I think Sly’s creative approaches in his early films was very underrated at the time. He made his films better with his ideas and vision. Sly Stallone is an absolute legend. No doubt he goes down in the Hollywood hall of fame as one of the greatest to ever do it 🐐🎬

"It's impossible for me to talk about popular music without mentioning probably my greatest mentor, John Lennon. I guess he defined for me how one could twist and turn the fabric of pop and imbue it with elements from other artforms, often producing something extremely beautiful, very powerful and imbued with strangeness.
"I just thought he was the very best of what could be done with rock and roll. And ideas — I mean, I felt such kin to him. He would rifle the avant-garde and look for ideas that were so outside, on the periphery of what was the mainstream, and then apply them in a functional manner to something that was considered populist . . . and make it work! He would take the most odd idea and make it work for the masses. And I thought that was just so admirable. That was like making art work for the people, you know, and not sort of having it as an elitist thing. There was just so much about him that I admired.
"One thing that I really adored about Lennon’s writing was his use of the pun, which was exceedingly good. I don’t think anyone has ever bettered Lennon’s use of the pun. I played on it more; Lennon would throw it away in one line.
"We were talking about writing once — I’ve always admired the way he used to cut through all the bullshit, just come straight to the point with what he wanted to say — and he said it’s very easy, 'All you have to do is say what you mean, make it rhyme and put a backbeat to it.' And I keep coming back to that principle as a writer.
"'Fame' happened like that. I mean, it was so easy. John had incredible charisma that made you cut through things. I can see the effect that he must have had on McCartney.
"He could capture just what was going on around him, or anybody else, with 5 or 10 words or one sharp line. I once asked him, 'What do you think of what I do? What do you think of glam-rock?' He said, 'Aww now, it’s great you know, but it’s just rock ‘n’ roll with lipstick on.' Nobody has ever said it better. And I was impressed as I was at virtually everything he said.
"He was probably one of the brightest, quickest-witted, earnestly socialist men I’ve ever met in my life. Socialist in true definition – not in a fabricated political sense, but a real humanist. And a really spiteful sense of humor, which of course being English I adored. I just thought we’d be buddies forever and get on better and better and all that, you know. Fantasy . . . when he was killed, a whole piece of my life seemed to have been taken away. A whole reason for being a singer and songwriter seemed to be removed from me."

Happy 123rd birthday to the late Walter O’Malley. Seen as both a villain and a visionary, the polarizing owner had an enormous impact on the Dodgers. In his tenure, the team moved from Brooklyn to LA and won 4 WS titles. Loved or hated, he was inducted into the HOF in 2008.
