So much going on, too much to process. One ghost Thomas, two guitar, three someone had to sit and sew those damn pants! Not to mention the hair clip in those white locks
The Sins of the Sharpe Family Conveyed in Heraldry
Crimson Peak’s Sir Thomas and Lady Lucille may live in Cumbria, but they live in a world entirely of their own invention. This is evident in their family crest, which elaborates on elements from the Cumbrian coat of arms (seen directly below) with an appropriately sinister twist.
Compare to the Sharpes’ distinctive heraldry:
Wyverns: Valor and protection; cold and ice; a venomous bite. Here symbolizing Thomas and Lucille entwined in the remains of their family estate.
Sheep’s Head: Authority; a sacrifice; rebirth. In addition to the nod to Cumbria, here we see a badge of the honor and respectability that remain perpetually out of the Sharpes’ reach – possibly an allusion to the Cushings and other families upon whom they’ve preyed.
Three Skulls: An attribute of hermits and penitent holy figures; mortality. These replace the three roses on the Cumbrian coat of arms, slyly alluding to the three previous Mrs. Thomas Sharpes.
Hills of Cumbria: Britain’s most mountainous area. The Sharpe’s red clay deposits can be seen flowing across the bottom.
Ad montes oculos levavi: “I shall lift up mine eyes to the hills” – the first line of the 121st Psalm.
Bucket Wheel Excavator: This heraldic element was most likely added by Thomas himself to enshrine his legacy as a mining innovator, since these types of excavators were otherwise not seen until the early 20th century.
The story doesn’t have to end here. Keep the Sharpes close to your heart with this ominous piece of jewelry by Black Phoenix Trading Post:
Sir Anthony Hopkins has joined fellow Thor cast members
Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston on the Brisbane set of the Marvel
superhero movie.
The 78-year-old actor, who plays Odin, father of
Hemsworth’s Thor and adoptive father of Hiddleston’s Loki in the film
series, arrived on the closed set for Thor: Ragnarok this morning.
Brisbane woman Jess Moller-Nielsen said Sir Anthony’s appearance came as a surprise to her and everyone else around watching.
“It
was just Thormazing. They were all keeping pretty low-key so I was
thrilled to see Chris and Tom this morning, but when Anthony Hopkins
came out of the hotel too I was just over the moon,” she said.
“He’s a brilliant actor, one of my favourites, and it was incredible to see him standing just a couple of metres away from me.
“To be honest I don’t know if anyone else realised it was Anthony Hopkins because I seemed to be the only one taking a photo.”
Today’s
filming for the upcoming Marvel superhero film is taking place down a
laneway, behind a black gate and underneath a white cover.
Queensland Police Service broke the news over social media, saying filming would take place on a closed set all week.
The
intersection was transformed into downtown New York City for the shoot,
complete with dozens of extras, yellow taxis, black and white police
cars, fire hydrants, and more.
Both Hemsworth and Hiddleston interacted with fans who gathered to
watch the action in the later part of the day, coming to meet the crowd
for selfies and some quick media interviews.
Mary Street has three lanes from Albert Street to Edward Street closed until 4:00am on Friday, August 26
Albert Street between Charlotte and Mary streets is closed until 11:59pm on Thursday, August 25
Esk Lane is closed between Mary Street and the end of the road until 8:00pm on Wednesday, August 31
Traffic,
deliveries, pedestrians and hotel guests will have access to businesses
during the closures, although there may be short delays for public
safety reasons.
Thor: Ragnarok will be released in cinemas in late 2017.
– He jumped up and down like a child before every take
– Was doing the Chris “throw my head back, grab my boob” Evans laugh all day
– Would wave at the fans and come stand in the street in between takes
– Spent a good 30 mins going around to all the clusters of fans. He took as many selfies as he could with the people at the front, and was throwing posters and badges and lollies to the people at the back that he couldn’t reach
– Even though it was hot and they had been filming all day, he was still smiling and acknowledging all the fans
– He would say hello to everyone on set. Even talked to the extras and some random police officers.
– He is every bit as amazing as you would hope he would be
Bonus: he was dressed in the most fine as fitted black suit and he just looked so gooooood. Y’all ain’t ready
That’s our man right there ❤
Yep, that’s the Tom we know and love. We’ve seen it; believe it.
