She looks like the wholesome yet academically gifted kid you went to school with, who is now giving back to her community and living her best life. She literally looks the epitome of sweet and smart
She is also the type of girl who displays kindness towards others and would go out of her way to help another in need. She has a lot of positive traits going for her.
Agreed. I'm at a really low point struggling with my health and all the positive and wholesome connections I've made here on YT with the smaller channels have been a blessing. So much support from every direction I'm looking in. Thank God!
Also I'm a guy but my four best friends that I grew up with in my neighborhood were all girls, so I think that's why platonic friendships and acquaintances work so well for me. I fly the ace flag proudly, I'm just attracted to nice people.
I hope this doesn't come across as creepy or condescending but I think you are really sweet, grounded, eloquent and have a lovely accent - and you have great taste in movies!!!
Props to you Jerome on accepting the greying of your hair. That's wonderful - we need more role models like you. Hopefully you'll embrace it on HD too. :)
I commend you for wanting to keep certain aspects of your life private. That being said, I think that you're a Gem, simply a natural beauty. Thank you for putting out content. Just keep on doing what you're doing, and, you be you!!
I loved watching this; thank you! I discovered you while looking for reviews of Forbin: The Colossus Project, and I really like your personality and appearance. Best of luck to you in everything you do!
don't need personal information.. the random facts you did share were great. you seem like a super interesting person that does great reviews, knowing that you like mint-chocolate ice cream is awesome.
I have many things I'd comment on, but I'll limit myself to just 2. First of all I am amazed you are only 5'2"" - I would have probably guessed about 5'7" or 5'8" (not I ever really thought about it before) - you come off as much taller than your actual height. I also had a part in my school play in Helen of Troy. I played a Greek soldier and had 2 lines. "Give us Helen or give us death" I was then mortally struck by an arrow. My next line was "That was only meant as a figure of speech" and I plopped down dead on the stage floor. It got a good few laughs. Loved this video, thanks for sharing!
101 Dalmatians is my ultimate favorite animated film! The film that made me cry (openly sob!) the most is Inside Out. When she cries at the end it makes me cry EVERY time! Even just hearing the theme song makes me cry.
So happy there is another Vast of Night fan out there. I love that movie and the director did so much with it on a modest budget. It nails the aesthetic and mood and that rolling camera shot through the whole town is amazing.
Very interesting . I applaud your acceptance of your gradually changing hair colour. Like you , I faced the same issue and decided to accept it and move on . I also used to get really nervous before having to do anything in public . One day I realized that it would hamper whatever I was trying to do . I then decided that whatever was going to happen , would happen , and if I made a mistake ( or several ) , I should just keep on going . Anyway, it’s refreshing to hear such candour in today’s world . In my view , you’re a 5 foot 2 inch giant . Please keep giving us your thoughtful, humorous and intelligent reviews .
I have a similar trigger to your Lion King one, for me it’s the scene where Yoda dies in Return Of The Jedi. Ever since I first saw that scene as a kid, I can’t make it through without crying. Also hey! I’m also an ISFJ-T!
Interesting video - came across your channel by accident, but glad I did. I --like-- LOVE the movie reviews, they're accurate to my feelings/opinions and you don't drag them out aka not boring. My fave review was "Marty"
Thank you! I'm happy you don't find the videos boring. I have a tough time watching reviews that are too drawn out, so I try to keep mine flowing without going too fast. I'm so glad you enjoyed the Marty review; that one was special to me.
I learned the electronic organ first, so I play piano and organ with chords too. You know, it's fine. I'm 63 now and doubt that I will ever learn "the right way." And I'm OK with that. We don't have to be perfect at everything, just happy!
I'll toss you something back: YT sent me your way recently because you talk about things that interest me- mainly films (Hitchcock, Corman so far) but also Austen. But- speaking as a former Disney artist (and apparently from the era of your childhood, but mostly stuck in television, blecch)- I stick around for your voice. I'd have loved to have animated to it. It's expressive, engaging, and high-personality.
I don't like crying in front of other people either I always feel like, as a man, people will judge me for being weak (which I know really doesn't matter at all). I think I have a problem with showing emotion in front of people because deep down I know that I am too prideful, I care too much about how other people see me or perceive me, I know it doesn't matter how people see me but sometimes I am just too internally focused.
Hello, J. I had just finished watching your I, Robot review when this one popped up as a YT 'what to watch next' suggestion. So I said sure, why not?. This time I was struck by your reluctance to show emotion while movie watching with others around. It kind of answers the question, "why doesn't she try one of those reaction videos?" I get it. I can't imagine even being on camera, much less reacting to powerful images, music, etc. On another topic, I'd love to see a "25 more facts" video some day, if you ever wanted to. I hope the Back Burner file is alive and well. ;)
It's not going to be another 25 facts, but I do have something special up my sleeve for this Tuesday. And yes, the back burner has a couple dozen files in it, haha.
Staring at the menu at places with a bazillion options....YES! Gosh, that's me. And it's worse when I'm at places with a line you're supposed to move through and choose your options to assemble your dish. I need time to consider the plethora of words on the menu board, but people behind me in line already know what they want so it's like "Okay, I'll have a #3 then." Or with ice cream, it's always 5 agonizing minutes which culminate in "....Fudge ripple" every single time. OMG yes The Land Before Time! I cried when I was a kid seeing it for the first time (probably 1990?) and every time afterward. I saw it again 2 years ago on Netflix and was a teary mess even though I KNEW what would happen (it's also shorter than I remembered). I got sorted into Ravenclaw when I took the official Pottermore sorting test, which pleased me (since that's what I was like in middle and high school) but whenever I took the unofficial tests that proliferated online for years before the "official" Pottermore one showed up, I was always Gryffindor. And about the grey....embrace it! I started going grey at 31. Now at 35 it's marching across my head unabated and I look like Nikolaj Coster Waldau, but I've decided to love it. Calling it "silver" instead of grey makes me feel better about it.
Argh, yes! Dish assembly lines are torture for us indecisive people. Haha, yeah, "silver" sounds so much better than grey. My mom refers to it as tinsel in my hair. :)
I cried watching Land Before Time too. You're funny... Every musical student I talk to says the same thing... I just want to play without practice. If you can get to a level that is satisfactory for you, then you've achieved success. ( My opinion) Thanks for sharing you.
Thanks. I also got glasses in 4th or 5th grade. At first, looking out of them was bizarre. I felt about 1 foot tall, and everything was at a Dutch angle. Once my eyes (and brain) adjusted, my mother says my first take was, "Hey Mom - I can see all the leaves on the trees!" I'd never seen that before without climbing a tree. I have seamless bifocals now. 20-100 with astigmatism(s). Yeah. I have to wear them to drive, but otherwise they still bug me 50 years later. tavi.
I somehow came across your channel, I think because of my Internet in old 1950s sci fi movies. I can re watch these films over and over. Anyway, I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your movie reviews, really pleasant to listen to. Your chanel content is fabulous, well done to you, and thankyou for taking the time to do them. Much appreciation. John.
Thank you for taking the time to watch them! I glad you enjoy the videos, especially the classic sci-fi/horror movie content. You can expect more of that in the future. :)
Kudos to u for sharing some of ur personal memories. Found it INTERESTING. It feels like we all lived an interesting life IF we can PAUSE for a moment to appreciate it. Looking forward to ur next video. Aloha frm Hawaii !
My familial positioning is identical to yours. Speaking for myself, I actually felt like an only child with distant family friends from my earliest childhood. It also felt like I lived with grandparents by my mid-teens. On paper I had a core family, but I definitely selected my own direction with practically zero family influence or idolization during my transition to my early teen years. Very much a maverick! I developed a metaphor about how society is shaped. For better or worse, young people are guided by peer pressure and conformity. Like having a field trip to the countryside where the large group is informed by what the tour guide wants us to like and dislike. Specific indoctrination for any given era complete with absorbing current trends. I happen to be the kid who would wander away from the tour and gravitate towards fragments of other eras. I like exploring on my own without conforming to peer age / era fads and trends.
@Jerome Your fact #25; I can relate. I was 12 when my 7th Grade English teacher was walking in between the desks of the classroom during a lesson one day, and as she walked up behind mine, she said "Alex, you have a gray hair on the back of your head", and promptly offered to pluck it for me (don't know why, but I'm always reminded of Shel Silverstein's poem "Chester" when I think about that moment). It freaked me out at the time (enhanced by the embarrassment of having my teacher point it out in front of the whole class), but these days I am unsurprised to find multiple gray hairs, and not just on my head (which is now also bald), but in my beard, my eyebrows, and even my nose! Age gets the better of us all, doesn't it?
Great video, Jerome. Lovely learning a little bit about you. My youngest daughter (now in her 30s) has The Lion King as her favourite film. She tears up, too. Although I've had my ears pierced, earrings really irritate my ears so I don't bother with them. You're not alone in being prematurely grey, it just shows up more in brunettes. I dyed my dark but greying hair at 40, but now I'm old I just rock my silver hair! I started writing a novel based on the Kirk Douglas film The Vikings when I was about 15. (I didn't realise that the film was already based on a book.) I still have my manuscript 50 years later and blush at the raunchiness of some passages (actually, pretty tame by most standards). I want to reach back in time and give my 15-year-old self a good slap! Lol.
Where the Red Fern Grows was also one of my favorites. I first read it as a 4th grader, and then read it thirteen more times during the same school year, often skipping the ending of the book because I knew it would knock me down for an entire day were I to complete it. Mrs. Schroeder, my 4th grade teacher, often read to us from Little House on the Prairie. Feeling that my book was the better book, I lobbied for her to read it to us instead. She declined, but told me I could read it to if I was willing, which I did. Sometimes we'd get a chapter from Little House, and sometimes from me. I remember scanning the pages at night, trying to find any bad words and crossing them out lest I inadvertently read them. Things went on like that for a while until I got to the confrontation with Rubin and Rainie, I think their names were. "Beat the hell out of him, Rubin," ten-year-old me read to class before clapping my hand over my own mouth, completely appalled. The class instantaneously burst into laughter. I was a little Asian kid and recall looking over at my teacher for her reaction, fearful she was mad. I remember Mrs. Schroeder was laughing so hard she'd slid halfway down her chair. She was literally holding her sides and had tears were running down her cheeks. I didn't appreciate it then, but my horrified expression must have been memorable. I'm fifty now, but that's a childhood memory that's always stayed with me.
Thank you for sharing facts about you. I wear glasses too, as a kid I hated them but as a grown adult I am happy to wear them. They make my life better. As you get older you pick comfort over looks. Glasses look good on you, you chose a nice glasses frame. You are a very nice and sweet woman, thank you for all you do and the time you invest on TH-cam. It is great to share common interests with you.
I enjoyed rewatching this the other night, and it inspired me to look up my Myers Briggs score from 2015. And what do you know, I'm an ISFJ too. I don't have the extra T (for thinking, I guess) but on a similar test I came up as Perfectionist. Not crazy about that word, but it does make some sense. Always fiddling with things that I've written, or done in some way. Love these 'get to know me' type videos, and this one was pure gold.
I looked up my old test results, and I guess the T actually stands for "turbulent," as opposed to "assertive." That's in the fifth category, "Identity," which people usually don't include when they're announcing their labels (the other categories being "Mind," "Energy," "Nature," and "Tactics.") I don't know that I put a lot of stock in the whole, but I definitely wouldn't describe myself as assertive, so I guess it fits. I rated only 65% turbulent, though, for whatever that's worth. Oh, and as a perfectionist myself, I see nothing wrong with nit-picky self-editing. :)
Hilarious and your honesty and humour about life and random stuff is just refreshing. Disappointed however that your real name is not Jerome Wiesslberry. I would never be so shallow as to deny my true identity. Best Regards, Edgar Hieronymous Spacedust.
As a fan of the number three, I approve of your 27 confessions, as 27 is three to the third power. You've caught me just as I came home with some French vanilla and some strawberry, so I fully agree about ice cream. (I prefer French vanilla for root beer floats.) Say, may I dare to speculate that Covid-19 had some impact on your usual reviewing, a library closing, something like that? I can entirely understand preferring to cry in private, and it is honorable to cry over a good movie -- a stupid movie, maybe not quite so much. Maybe I've already said so, but the end of The Manchurian Candidate -- the original, with Sinatra -- always gets me. Sinatra talks about Medal of Honor winners, and then he eulogizes a major character, and -- that's it, I am utterly demolished. No harm in writing a novella -- The Shawshank Redemption is based on a novella, so you never know. This video is inspiring two questions. One: have you ever considered practicing law? I wonder, because Myers-Briggs calls you a "Defender," and you are Slytherin, which fits a stereotype of lawyers being slippery and underhanded. Two, I'm a little surprised that you never touched on board games or anything like that. Specifically I'm wondering: ever try chess? I've never been great at it, though lately I've been beating my computer, which gives me hope. What I love about chess is that even when the players are terrible the game itself at least looks good, the pieces are carved nicely and the way they dance around each other can be very nifty and elegant. Always a delight to hear from you, and if you ever need to make 27 more confessions, I'm all eyes and ears. Cheers.
I was doing homework while watching this, when you said the part of mint with chocolate chip you had all my attention I legitly put my homework aside, I freaking love that ice cream!!! Btw you are very cool😎
The thing with the owls reminds me of my youngest sister who likes and collects owls due to a place we would go to for thanksgiving when I was living at a foster home with my other siblings we called it the owl cottage
Glad I found your channel, Jerome. It takes some bravery to put yourself out there on a forum as public as TH-cam. I used to have some videos of music/movie/TV reviews on YT but I got a little freaked out at how publicly exposed it was and set them to private. My commenters and subscribers were respectful, but it only takes a few jerks to ruin everything, and I have a day job and family to support so the stakes are pretty high for me.
These facts were fun. It sounds like you went through some of the same anxiety I did in school. I was wondering though, do you have a cat? I have a tux, cats rule. If I may I would like to recommend a movie by Federico Fellini titled "La Strada" about a traveling circus girl. I just watched it and it was really good but slightly sad at times, hopefully not enough to make you cry but its considered one of the best movies ever.
Thanks for sharing. Your candid, forthright approach is always refreshing. I collect key chains too and have about a million of them. ;-) The main one I actually use is from Phantom. I, too, hated having to wear glasses as a child. Later, I tried contacts but eventually gave up on that and, finally embraced the glasses. It's much simpler that way. :-) Your novella sounds like it has potential. Have you ever seen the Val Lewton produced film "The Body Snatcher" from 1945? Karloff's performance is one of my favorites of his. Looking forward to your next production!
Ooh, I wonder if we have the same Phantom keychain! I've considered contacts, but they don't seem to be as convenient as glasses are. Plus I've heard some horror stories. :) Yes, I've seen The Body Snatcher. Might be my favorite of Val Lewton's films.
Heck yeah! Mint chocolate chip is the best! Very fun video! Thank you for sharing! So many fun facts about you, very cool. Green is also my favorite color, probably why I love mint chocolate chip, Baskin Robbins' is my absolute favorite. I was sorted into Ravenclaw. As a former football player, I can say we appreciated the band supporting us so it's really cool you were part of that. I'm an artist and I hope you don't mind some words of encouragement. Put some of your writing out there for others to check out. It is scary, trust me I know the first time I exhibited my art my stomach was in knots and I'm not usually anxious person. But letting others see your work can help you grow and can be very inspiring. That said, do what you are ready for and when you are ready. and do it for yourself. If you never want to share your work, that's all good too. But personally, I hope one day we get to hear about the published works of Jerome Weiselberry(well not Jerome Weiselberry but your real name of course)!
I really enjoyed your review of Star Trek 2 Wrath of Khan....I love the literacy references too!! Did you notice how much James Horner uses the Piccolo for the scoring of ST II? Would like to hear you play the Piccolo, if you ever felt compelled to do so. What is your field of study? Thank You!!
I collect Jane Eyre in different languages. Each time I visit a country with a new language, I'll drag my travelling companions to a bookstore searching for Jane Eyre. I've got Jane Eyre in Italian, German, Czech, Hungarian, Dutch, Norwegian, and Mandarin (and English, of course). I keep going back to the same countries, or visiting countries with the same native languages, so the collection is growing very, very slowly.
sure you won't have seen it but "Dot & the Kangaroo"...the ending of that film left me sobbing like a baby every time! (I was still only about 8 or 9 to be fair)
If you're looking for a movie to review, may I suggest the UK's 1963 Unearthly Stranger? Proof that you don't need to spend millions on FX to make an excellent film. All you need is a good script and every British character actor you can round up.
I'm a youngest child too. I got glasses when I was 10 years old. I got sorted into Ravenclaw. I've written filk lyrics, song spoofs. I did a Xena spoof musical, containing the song "I'm Shaving My Legs for You." My ears aren't pierced. I tried it once, but I passed out at the ear piercing place. One earring tore out when I fainted; the other I removed when I had to have my head x-rayed one emergency room visit later. I've had some fan fiction published in fanzine format. It's in the Qui to Time fanzine, if you must know. I had some poetry published in a college publication a long time ago.
I played the tuba in band, and I marched with a sousaphone. Once, while queuing up to march at a football game, I swung my sousaphone around and accidentally struck a piccolo player in the face with the bell. Broken nose, chipped tooth, black eye. High school band can indeed be treacherous.
You must have a doctorate in cinematography and literature, your knowledge and criticism is among the most thoughtful and accurate I ever heard, better than many "professionals".
i found my first grey hair when i was still in grade school (quite a long time ago!). my hair is salt and pepper now but i have no plans of coloring it lol. a wonderful list of random facts! weiselberry, i think you're probably the most interesting person on youtube. :)
I just subscribed today...came across your channel while watching some English classic movies. I did wonder about the 1st name - but one never knows these days. I watched last night, a Jane Eyre movie review (cannot remember which one) when you noted the costuming was good except for the napkin they put around Jane's neck. I burst out laughing. Personally, I thought it looked like a crumpled Christmas tree skirt. I think (in terms of Jane actresses) I am the only one who liked Charlotte (forget her last name...she is from France) performance b/c she looked think and had a long drawn out face (have not read the book in years)....the lady from (who knows what year) whose name begins with a "D" and played opposite of Timothy Dalton was too large (not fat just a bigger girl) for someone who spent 8 years at that school.
It's very generous of you to share yourself. Big feels at the keychain collection, had one of those in my youth, was a real fun hobby. Edit: I just noticed this is 3 years old but it popped in my feed so...uh, better late than never? :s
Thanks for sharing ! My daughter taught herself how to play the piano. She can't read music. She's pretty Good ! One other thing is I love birds ! #1 pelicans #2 owls #3 seagulls I find owls so fascinating ! I buy a couple calendars for around the house every year and lately they have been owls and John Wayne :-)
I had cold sensitivity to ice cream too. Taking vitamin C and D supplements took that away after a while. Really improved my dental health overall. Try it!
Hi! It's been a while. Mint chocolate chip Ice cream is one of my favorites too! Overall, Ice cream is one of my weakness! I am sorry you struggle with anxiety at times. I understand that. I am taking an online therapeutic coaching course and that seems to help me manage my thoughts and feelings. This may be hard to admit, I think there is a lot of pressure for men about this, but I am a sensitive person myself. Heck - I admit, I get teary eyed at the end of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey! LOL Yes, even as a kid I always found the first Land Before Time to be too depressing. lol I play piano/keyboards myself but I also don't play it the proper way and I am self-taught. I also compose music music but haven't done that in a while. I had wrote a one act play before for my high school but when I was in high school, I was invited by my drama teacher to take part in the event. I kinda cringe thinking about that play now haha. I got gray hair too...oh well, it is what it is. It actually doesn't bother me...although I am concerned it is probably due to stress lol
@@scottjo63 Oh yeah! I don't think I will ever watch Old Yeller again! Don't recall that scene in Dances With Wolves, but now I will be more aware! Lol
@@chrisdigitalartist As I love horror movies the best, they always seem today to always put a pet in there, so I'm always cautious. Now get this, they have a web site called, Does The Dog Die and that is an excellent site I always go to. It practically tells you not just dogs but all kinds of animals if they die or not. Also, forget me watching the Marley movie they made a few years ago as some others.
Enjoyed this video. I had you pegged as an introvert. I have a similar birth order, I am the youngest of 4 with my oldest sibling 14 years older and my closest sibling 5.5 years older.
Oh you have to do more of that song you said you're sort of proud of still, I'm sure WE ALL LOVE to hear it. And that story you decribed, that sounds so interesting. No complaints on this video. Oh I have 2 movie suggestions you could put on your list of movies, A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood with Tom Hanks as the late great Mr Roger's, perfect movie to watch back to back with the Stan And Ollie movie I suggested some time ago. Also if you wonder if they can ever make an original murder mystery today like they didn't with Murder On The Orient Express remake, try Knives Out with Daniel Craig and Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans (Capt. Amerca), and Christopher Plummer. I myself watched Train To Busan zombie movie, good suggestion from you there and will be rewatching Hell In The Pacific pretty soon. So, you have trouble with ice cream selecting, try me getting groceries, just get 4 or 5 items and it takes me a couple of hours for those 4 or 5 items. As always can't wait until your next video, thank for reading BYEE. (Now where did I get that from).
Your candor is commendable! Thanks for sharing. PS. If you haven't reviewed them yet, it might be best if you avoid those 'Children of the Corn' movies.
Jinkies ! Those are some truly fascinating facts, young lady ! Oodles of thanks for sharing ! Wise of you to not reveal your true name of too much personal info. Sad to say but in today's world, one can not bee too careful ! I certainly have not seen gray hairs on your head yet ! And I've myself have been wearing glasses since the 6th grade. My late mom collected owls too ! You clearly are a very creative & talented young lady ! And wonderfully sensitive & sweet too ! Bless your heart ! I'm sure you're a great blessing to your family & friends ! Please keep up the good work....love your perceptive, entertaining & informative videos ! Kudos, kiddo !! :-)
As a purveyor of rare gems, I may have 2 things that you will be glad you checked out if you do. I have no doubt that you have heard of these but, like most people, you may have never seen them. One is a film, "The Colossus Of New York". It is unlike anything else ever and has its own unique tone. It asks the existential questions that other films rarely do. It is fairly low budget but never in any category of ""bad". I'd call it chilling. I'd say its creepy. It's tragic. It's cheap but not campy, straight faced no matter how over the top it gets. It is the tale of a soul slowly dying. It is morbid though still science fiction. The cheap sound effects are blood curdling. It is not an original scenario but dives deep into the implications that similar scenarios avoid. After the first 60 seconds of the opening theme, you will "get it" . The other is a 50s TV series, "Science Fiction Theatre". It predated "Twilight Zone" and "Outer Limits". It alleges to be a docu-drama about real science. It is weird because it seems to take itself seriously, maybe prophetic, possibly insane. It has a host who sits at a lab table and tinkers with something that pertains to "this week's drama". Its "health class short subject" attitude makes it pretty weird. The first season was in color because the producers believed that this new invention, color TV, was about to sweep the nation, which it did not, not for a few years anyway. The next season was black and white. Both seasons are well done .
Another fact (possibly) is that Jerome dosen't like to swim in the ocean. If you know what her favorite Universal classic monster film is then you know why she prefers dry land😀🌴🌴.
She looks like the wholesome yet academically gifted kid you went to school with, who is now giving back to her community and living her best life. She literally looks the epitome of sweet and smart
agreed, literally the best female film reviewer, I admire her intellect and beauty❤
She is also the type of girl who displays kindness towards others and would go out of her way to help another in need. She has a lot of positive traits going for her.
Agreed. I'm at a really low point struggling with my health and all the positive and wholesome connections I've made here on YT with the smaller channels have been a blessing. So much support from every direction I'm looking in. Thank God!
Also I'm a guy but my four best friends that I grew up with in my neighborhood were all girls, so I think that's why platonic friendships and acquaintances work so well for me. I fly the ace flag proudly, I'm just attracted to nice people.
@@mc12358 I fly the American flag proudly. I'm attracted to girls who are as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside.
I hope this doesn't come across as creepy or condescending but I think you are really sweet, grounded, eloquent and have a lovely accent - and you have great taste in movies!!!
Aw, thank you! :)
Bravo, Jerome! You are such a sweet, intelligent, and funny young woman!
As Fred Rogers would say, "I like you just the way you are".
You're pretty much the coolest person I've ever seen, can't wait to see what you're creating! 🤗
I agree, she has a super cool voice- could have come straight out of a Film Noir classic!
So refreshing to see a genuine personality on TH-cam
I'm the same on atleast half of those quirks lol
I cried at the scene in Disney Pixar Up.
The scene when main characters wife dies.
Its 3:07, I can't sleep, stumbled upon your channel. I like it.
Props to you Jerome on accepting the greying of your hair. That's wonderful - we need more role models like you. Hopefully you'll embrace it on HD too. :)
I commend you for wanting to keep certain aspects of your life private. That being said, I think that you're a Gem, simply a natural beauty. Thank you for putting out content.
Just keep on doing what you're doing, and, you be you!!
26. You're delightful.
I loved watching this; thank you! I discovered you while looking for reviews of Forbin: The Colossus Project, and I really like your personality and appearance. Best of luck to you in everything you do!
Thank you!
That’s exactly how I discovered her, too! I remember seeing Colossus in the 1st or 2nd grade and wanted to see how my memory held up
don't need personal information.. the random facts you did share were great.
you seem like a super interesting person that does great reviews, knowing that you like mint-chocolate ice cream is awesome.
This was a fun video. Always interesting to hear more about the person behind the creativity. Thanks for sharing this bit about yourself with us.
She's one of the most refreshing movie reviewers and beautifully presented.
I have many things I'd comment on, but I'll limit myself to just 2. First of all I am amazed you are only 5'2"" - I would have probably guessed about 5'7" or 5'8" (not I ever really thought about it before) - you come off as much taller than your actual height. I also had a part in my school play in Helen of Troy. I played a Greek soldier and had 2 lines. "Give us Helen or give us death" I was then mortally struck by an arrow. My next line was "That was only meant as a figure of speech" and I plopped down dead on the stage floor. It got a good few laughs. Loved this video, thanks for sharing!
Five two *and a half*! :P Oh my, that sounds hilarious!
I typed in ‘classic tv series’ and your channel popped up with “The Invaders”
Now your one of my favourite TH-cam channels.❤️
Thank you!!
You are sooo charming. I would probably watch if you reviewed the Spanish Inquisition, the apocalypse, or golf reruns........
101 Dalmatians is my ultimate favorite animated film! The film that made me cry (openly sob!) the most is Inside Out. When she cries at the end it makes me cry EVERY time! Even just hearing the theme song makes me cry.
You're a hoot. Love your channel, especially the movie reviews.
So happy there is another Vast of Night fan out there. I love that movie and the director did so much with it on a modest budget. It nails the aesthetic and mood and that rolling camera shot through the whole town is amazing.
Very interesting . I applaud your acceptance of your gradually changing hair colour. Like you , I faced the same issue and decided to accept it and move on . I also used to get really nervous before having to do anything in public . One day I realized that it would hamper whatever I was trying to do . I then decided that whatever was going to happen , would happen , and if I made a mistake ( or several ) , I should just keep on going . Anyway, it’s refreshing to hear such candour in today’s world . In my view , you’re a 5 foot 2 inch giant . Please keep giving us your thoughtful, humorous and intelligent reviews .
Yes, "Baby Mine" chokes me up, too. Reminds me of my relationship with my Mom (I'm the youngest in my family too). I love the touching lyrics.
Your novella sounds very intriguing! I hope you get it published one day.
I'll read that for sure, want to read it now, Gothic, father son relationship, body snatching.
I second this!
PERSONAL PRIVACY - Brilliant! Protect yourself, JW. It's WAY too easy to unintentionally leave a digital crumb trail to your front door.
I have a similar trigger to your Lion King one, for me it’s the scene where Yoda dies in Return Of The Jedi. Ever since I first saw that scene as a kid, I can’t make it through without crying. Also hey! I’m also an ISFJ-T!
Interesting video - came across your channel by accident, but glad I did. I --like-- LOVE the movie reviews, they're accurate to my feelings/opinions and you don't drag them out aka not boring. My fave review was "Marty"
Thank you! I'm happy you don't find the videos boring. I have a tough time watching reviews that are too drawn out, so I try to keep mine flowing without going too fast. I'm so glad you enjoyed the Marty review; that one was special to me.
I tend to put my glasses off and the spent looking for them endlessly when I need them. So good thing to keep them on!
I learned the electronic organ first, so I play piano and organ with chords too. You know, it's fine. I'm 63 now and doubt that I will ever learn "the right way." And I'm OK with that. We don't have to be perfect at everything, just happy!
Awesome vid Jerome I just got one of your videos suggestion and im loving the channel!~ :D
Thanks!
I fell in love watching a few of these videos but than when I got to the end, and I saw/herd the “bye”....I am now convinced I am... 😂
I'll toss you something back: YT sent me your way recently because you talk about things that interest me- mainly films (Hitchcock, Corman so far) but also Austen. But- speaking as a former Disney artist (and apparently from the era of your childhood, but mostly stuck in television, blecch)- I stick around for your voice. I'd have loved to have animated to it. It's expressive, engaging, and high-personality.
Your commentary on Disney flicks was very relatable. >.
I don't like crying in front of other people either I always feel like, as a man, people will judge me for being weak (which I know really doesn't matter at all). I think I have a problem with showing emotion in front of people because deep down I know that I am too prideful, I care too much about how other people see me or perceive me, I know it doesn't matter how people see me but sometimes I am just too internally focused.
Hello, J. I had just finished watching your I, Robot review when this one popped up as a YT 'what to watch next' suggestion. So I said sure, why not?. This time I was struck by your reluctance to show emotion while movie watching with others around. It kind of answers the question, "why doesn't she try one of those reaction videos?" I get it. I can't imagine even being on camera, much less reacting to powerful images, music, etc. On another topic, I'd love to see a "25 more facts" video some day, if you ever wanted to. I hope the Back Burner file is alive and well. ;)
It's not going to be another 25 facts, but I do have something special up my sleeve for this Tuesday. And yes, the back burner has a couple dozen files in it, haha.
‘It’s inconvenient to cry…’ 😂
You’re 100% correct of course, but I never thought about it like that.
Staring at the menu at places with a bazillion options....YES! Gosh, that's me. And it's worse when I'm at places with a line you're supposed to move through and choose your options to assemble your dish. I need time to consider the plethora of words on the menu board, but people behind me in line already know what they want so it's like "Okay, I'll have a #3 then." Or with ice cream, it's always 5 agonizing minutes which culminate in "....Fudge ripple" every single time.
OMG yes The Land Before Time! I cried when I was a kid seeing it for the first time (probably 1990?) and every time afterward. I saw it again 2 years ago on Netflix and was a teary mess even though I KNEW what would happen (it's also shorter than I remembered). I got sorted into Ravenclaw when I took the official Pottermore sorting test, which pleased me (since that's what I was like in middle and high school) but whenever I took the unofficial tests that proliferated online for years before the "official" Pottermore one showed up, I was always Gryffindor.
And about the grey....embrace it! I started going grey at 31. Now at 35 it's marching across my head unabated and I look like Nikolaj Coster Waldau, but I've decided to love it. Calling it "silver" instead of grey makes me feel better about it.
Argh, yes! Dish assembly lines are torture for us indecisive people. Haha, yeah, "silver" sounds so much better than grey. My mom refers to it as tinsel in my hair. :)
@@Weiselberry tinsel is a perfect description. Your mom is awesome! I'm stealing that. :)
I cried watching Land Before Time too. You're funny... Every musical student I talk to says the same thing... I just want to play without practice.
If you can get to a level that is satisfactory for you, then you've achieved success. ( My opinion)
Thanks for sharing you.
Mint Chocolate Chip all the way. Wholesome Jerome
I only discovered your channel in the last few days, so glad I did. Thanks
I so want you to do a collab with Jenny Nicholson where you two just talk about your favorite books for hours.
Thanks. I also got glasses in 4th or 5th grade. At first, looking out of them was bizarre. I felt about 1 foot tall, and everything was at a Dutch angle. Once my eyes (and brain) adjusted, my mother says my first take was, "Hey Mom - I can see all the leaves on the trees!" I'd never seen that before without climbing a tree. I have seamless bifocals now. 20-100 with astigmatism(s). Yeah. I have to wear them to drive, but otherwise they still bug me 50 years later. tavi.
I somehow came across your channel, I think because of my Internet in old 1950s sci fi movies. I can re watch these films over and over. Anyway, I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your movie reviews, really pleasant to listen to. Your chanel content is fabulous, well done to you, and thankyou for taking the time to do them. Much appreciation. John.
Thank you for taking the time to watch them! I glad you enjoy the videos, especially the classic sci-fi/horror movie content. You can expect more of that in the future. :)
Kudos to u for sharing some of ur personal memories. Found it INTERESTING. It feels like we all lived an interesting life IF we can PAUSE for a moment to appreciate it.
Looking forward to ur next video.
Aloha frm Hawaii !
My familial positioning is identical to yours. Speaking for myself, I actually felt like an only child with distant family friends from my earliest childhood. It also felt like I lived with grandparents by my mid-teens. On paper I had a core family, but I definitely selected my own direction with practically zero family influence or idolization during my transition to my early teen years. Very much a maverick!
I developed a metaphor about how society is shaped. For better or worse, young people are guided by peer pressure and conformity. Like having a field trip to the countryside where the large group is informed by what the tour guide wants us to like and dislike. Specific indoctrination for any given era complete with absorbing current trends. I happen to be the kid who would wander away from the tour and gravitate towards fragments of other eras. I like exploring on my own without conforming to peer age / era fads and trends.
@Jerome Your fact #25; I can relate. I was 12 when my 7th Grade English teacher was walking in between the desks of the classroom during a lesson one day, and as she walked up behind mine, she said "Alex, you have a gray hair on the back of your head", and promptly offered to pluck it for me (don't know why, but I'm always reminded of Shel Silverstein's poem "Chester" when I think about that moment). It freaked me out at the time (enhanced by the embarrassment of having my teacher point it out in front of the whole class), but these days I am unsurprised to find multiple gray hairs, and not just on my head (which is now also bald), but in my beard, my eyebrows, and even my nose! Age gets the better of us all, doesn't it?
More siblings means more chances for owl or Godzilla gifts :)
Great video, Jerome. Lovely learning a little bit about you. My youngest daughter (now in her 30s) has The Lion King as her favourite film. She tears up, too. Although I've had my ears pierced, earrings really irritate my ears so I don't bother with them. You're not alone in being prematurely grey, it just shows up more in brunettes. I dyed my dark but greying hair at 40, but now I'm old I just rock my silver hair! I started writing a novel based on the Kirk Douglas film The Vikings when I was about 15. (I didn't realise that the film was already based on a book.) I still have my manuscript 50 years later and blush at the raunchiness of some passages (actually, pretty tame by most standards). I want to reach back in time and give my 15-year-old self a good slap! Lol.
Where the Red Fern Grows was also one of my favorites. I first read it as a 4th grader, and then read it thirteen more times during the same school year, often skipping the ending of the book because I knew it would knock me down for an entire day were I to complete it. Mrs. Schroeder, my 4th grade teacher, often read to us from Little House on the Prairie. Feeling that my book was the better book, I lobbied for her to read it to us instead. She declined, but told me I could read it to if I was willing, which I did. Sometimes we'd get a chapter from Little House, and sometimes from me. I remember scanning the pages at night, trying to find any bad words and crossing them out lest I inadvertently read them. Things went on like that for a while until I got to the confrontation with Rubin and Rainie, I think their names were. "Beat the hell out of him, Rubin," ten-year-old me read to class before clapping my hand over my own mouth, completely appalled. The class instantaneously burst into laughter. I was a little Asian kid and recall looking over at my teacher for her reaction, fearful she was mad. I remember Mrs. Schroeder was laughing so hard she'd slid halfway down her chair. She was literally holding her sides and had tears were running down her cheeks. I didn't appreciate it then, but my horrified expression must have been memorable. I'm fifty now, but that's a childhood memory that's always stayed with me.
Haha I have a owl collection as well
Nice! :)
Four animated movies guaranteed to make you cry: Watership Downs, The Plague Dogs, Felidae and The Grace of the Fireflies
Legend of the Overfiend.. I still cry every time I see tentacles...
Thank you for sharing facts about you. I wear glasses too, as a kid I hated them but as a grown adult I am happy to wear them. They make my life better. As you get older you pick comfort over looks. Glasses look good on you, you chose a nice glasses frame. You are a very nice and sweet woman, thank you for all you do and the time you invest on TH-cam. It is great to share common interests with you.
Love those Owls! ;)
I enjoyed rewatching this the other night, and it inspired me to look up my Myers Briggs score from 2015. And what do you know, I'm an ISFJ too. I don't have the extra T (for thinking, I guess) but on a similar test I came up as Perfectionist. Not crazy about that word, but it does make some sense. Always fiddling with things that I've written, or done in some way. Love these 'get to know me' type videos, and this one was pure gold.
I looked up my old test results, and I guess the T actually stands for "turbulent," as opposed to "assertive." That's in the fifth category, "Identity," which people usually don't include when they're announcing their labels (the other categories being "Mind," "Energy," "Nature," and "Tactics.") I don't know that I put a lot of stock in the whole, but I definitely wouldn't describe myself as assertive, so I guess it fits. I rated only 65% turbulent, though, for whatever that's worth. Oh, and as a perfectionist myself, I see nothing wrong with nit-picky self-editing. :)
Hilarious and your honesty and humour about life and random stuff is just refreshing. Disappointed however that your real name is not Jerome Wiesslberry. I would never be so shallow as to deny my true identity. Best Regards, Edgar Hieronymous Spacedust.
As a fan of the number three, I approve of your 27 confessions, as 27 is three to the third power. You've caught me just as I came home with some French vanilla and some strawberry, so I fully agree about ice cream. (I prefer French vanilla for root beer floats.) Say, may I dare to speculate that Covid-19 had some impact on your usual reviewing, a library closing, something like that? I can entirely understand preferring to cry in private, and it is honorable to cry over a good movie -- a stupid movie, maybe not quite so much. Maybe I've already said so, but the end of The Manchurian Candidate -- the original, with Sinatra -- always gets me. Sinatra talks about Medal of Honor winners, and then he eulogizes a major character, and -- that's it, I am utterly demolished. No harm in writing a novella -- The Shawshank Redemption is based on a novella, so you never know. This video is inspiring two questions. One: have you ever considered practicing law? I wonder, because Myers-Briggs calls you a "Defender," and you are Slytherin, which fits a stereotype of lawyers being slippery and underhanded. Two, I'm a little surprised that you never touched on board games or anything like that. Specifically I'm wondering: ever try chess? I've never been great at it, though lately I've been beating my computer, which gives me hope. What I love about chess is that even when the players are terrible the game itself at least looks good, the pieces are carved nicely and the way they dance around each other can be very nifty and elegant. Always a delight to hear from you, and if you ever need to make 27 more confessions, I'm all eyes and ears. Cheers.
“Sufficient for my happiness”❤
Hahaha more reasons to like this channel! I think I related to at least 75% of everything that's in here :)
Just recently discovered your channel.
Love it. Your taste in movies is excellent. Your reviews are great.
Charming and sincere.
I was doing homework while watching this, when you said the part of mint with chocolate chip you had all my attention I legitly put my homework aside, I freaking love that ice cream!!! Btw you are very cool😎
You are adorable.
The thing with the owls reminds me of my youngest sister who likes and collects owls due to a place we would go to for thanksgiving when I was living at a foster home with my other siblings we called it the owl cottage
Ever seen watership Down? That may bring a tear
Glad I found your channel, Jerome. It takes some bravery to put yourself out there on a forum as public as TH-cam. I used to have some videos of music/movie/TV reviews on YT but I got a little freaked out at how publicly exposed it was and set them to private. My commenters and subscribers were respectful, but it only takes a few jerks to ruin everything, and I have a day job and family to support so the stakes are pretty high for me.
Mint chocolate is my fav too! It is so yummy 😋
These facts were fun. It sounds like you went through some of the same anxiety I did in school. I was wondering though, do you have a cat? I have a tux, cats rule. If I may I would like to recommend a movie by Federico Fellini titled "La Strada" about a traveling circus girl. I just watched it and it was really good but slightly sad at times, hopefully not enough to make you cry but its considered one of the best movies ever.
Nope, I don't have any pets. I do like cats, though. :)
Thanks for sharing. Your candid, forthright approach is always refreshing. I collect key chains too and have about a million of them. ;-) The main one I actually use is from Phantom.
I, too, hated having to wear glasses as a child. Later, I tried contacts but eventually gave up on that and, finally embraced the glasses. It's much simpler that way. :-)
Your novella sounds like it has potential. Have you ever seen the Val Lewton produced film "The Body Snatcher" from 1945? Karloff's performance is one of my favorites of his.
Looking forward to your next production!
I second watching The Body Snatcher movie, Karloff at his usual best.
Ooh, I wonder if we have the same Phantom keychain! I've considered contacts, but they don't seem to be as convenient as glasses are. Plus I've heard some horror stories. :) Yes, I've seen The Body Snatcher. Might be my favorite of Val Lewton's films.
@@Weiselberry I'm a 4 eyed guy myself, can't think of having anything put in my eyeballs. Arghhh, no tattoos or piercings for me, I do hate needles.
Heck yeah! Mint chocolate chip is the best! Very fun video! Thank you for sharing! So many fun facts about you, very cool.
Green is also my favorite color, probably why I love mint chocolate chip, Baskin Robbins' is my absolute favorite. I was sorted into Ravenclaw. As a former football player, I can say we appreciated the band supporting us so it's really cool you were part of that.
I'm an artist and I hope you don't mind some words of encouragement. Put some of your writing out there for others to check out. It is scary, trust me I know the first time I exhibited my art my stomach was in knots and I'm not usually anxious person. But letting others see your work can help you grow and can be very inspiring. That said, do what you are ready for and when you are ready. and do it for yourself. If you never want to share your work, that's all good too. But personally, I hope one day we get to hear about the published works of Jerome Weiselberry(well not Jerome Weiselberry but your real name of course)!
I really enjoyed your review of Star Trek 2 Wrath of Khan....I love the literacy references too!! Did you notice how much James Horner uses the Piccolo for the scoring of ST II? Would like to hear you play the Piccolo, if you ever felt compelled to do so. What is your field of study? Thank You!!
The hero youtube deserves
I collect Jane Eyre in different languages. Each time I visit a country with a new language, I'll drag my travelling companions to a bookstore searching for Jane Eyre. I've got Jane Eyre in Italian, German, Czech, Hungarian, Dutch, Norwegian, and Mandarin (and English, of course). I keep going back to the same countries, or visiting countries with the same native languages, so the collection is growing very, very slowly.
Wow, that must be a fascinating collection to peruse!
I am glad that you maintain your anonymity. I do too. And I'm probably shorter than you think.
sure you won't have seen it but "Dot & the Kangaroo"...the ending of that film left me sobbing like a baby every time! (I was still only about 8 or 9 to be fair)
If you're looking for a movie to review, may I suggest the UK's 1963 Unearthly Stranger? Proof that you don't need to spend millions on FX to make an excellent film. All you need is a good script and every British character actor you can round up.
I'm a youngest child too. I got glasses when I was 10 years old. I got sorted into Ravenclaw. I've written filk lyrics, song spoofs. I did a Xena spoof musical, containing the song "I'm Shaving My Legs for You." My ears aren't pierced. I tried it once, but I passed out at the ear piercing place. One earring tore out when I fainted; the other I removed when I had to have my head x-rayed one emergency room visit later. I've had some fan fiction published in fanzine format. It's in the Qui to Time fanzine, if you must know. I had some poetry published in a college publication a long time ago.
Awesome facts!! Thanks for sharing them with us.
I played the tuba in band, and I marched with a sousaphone. Once, while queuing up to march at a football game, I swung my sousaphone around and accidentally struck a piccolo player in the face with the bell. Broken nose, chipped tooth, black eye. High school band can indeed be treacherous.
Yikes! That's one good thing, I guess, about our band being too small for a tuba or sousaphone. I seem to have dodged a bullet.
You must have a doctorate in cinematography and literature, your knowledge and criticism is among the most thoughtful and accurate I ever heard, better than many "professionals".
i found my first grey hair when i was still in grade school (quite a long time ago!). my hair is salt and pepper now but i have no plans of coloring it lol. a wonderful list of random facts! weiselberry, i think you're probably the most interesting person on youtube. :)
I did wonder about the lack of HD. Smart thinking.
I like your reviews on vertigo and pyscho. They were top notch professional style pretty amazing. Your like a regular ebert and ropert.
Thanks!
Never change:)
You're delightful
Snakes! Hate snakes! Can't even look a picture of snakes! Hate'em! Hate'em! Hate'em!
Indiana Jones has the same issue.
OMG, I'd love to read your novella!
I just subscribed today...came across your channel while watching some English classic movies. I did wonder about the 1st name - but one never knows these days. I watched last night, a Jane Eyre movie review (cannot remember which one) when you noted the costuming was good except for the napkin they put around Jane's neck. I burst out laughing. Personally, I thought it looked like a crumpled Christmas tree skirt. I think (in terms of Jane actresses) I am the only one who liked Charlotte (forget her last name...she is from France) performance b/c she looked think and had a long drawn out face (have not read the book in years)....the lady from (who knows what year) whose name begins with a "D" and played opposite of Timothy Dalton was too large (not fat just a bigger girl) for someone who spent 8 years at that school.
Love you to review "harry o" great job!
It's very generous of you to share yourself. Big feels at the keychain collection, had one of those in my youth, was a real fun hobby.
Edit: I just noticed this is 3 years old but it popped in my feed so...uh, better late than never? :s
Thanks for sharing ! My daughter taught herself how to play the piano. She can't read music. She's pretty Good ! One other thing is I love birds ! #1 pelicans #2 owls #3 seagulls I find owls so fascinating ! I buy a couple calendars for around the house every year and lately they have been owls and John Wayne :-)
I had cold sensitivity to ice cream too. Taking vitamin C and D supplements took that away after a while. Really improved my dental health overall. Try it!
Yeah, didn't think you were a Jerome. Great show though, just subscribed...
Hi! It's been a while. Mint chocolate chip Ice cream is one of my favorites too! Overall, Ice cream is one of my weakness! I am sorry you struggle with anxiety at times. I understand that. I am taking an online therapeutic coaching course and that seems to help me manage my thoughts and feelings. This may be hard to admit, I think there is a lot of pressure for men about this, but I am a sensitive person myself. Heck - I admit, I get teary eyed at the end of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey! LOL Yes, even as a kid I always found the first Land Before Time to be too depressing. lol I play piano/keyboards myself but I also don't play it the proper way and I am self-taught. I also compose music music but haven't done that in a while. I had wrote a one act play before for my high school but when I was in high school, I was invited by my drama teacher to take part in the event. I kinda cringe thinking about that play now haha. I got gray hair too...oh well, it is what it is. It actually doesn't bother me...although I am concerned it is probably due to stress lol
I can't ever watch Old Yeller and I had to leave the theater myself with the movie Dances With Wolves with 2 Socks being shot at by the soldiers.
@@scottjo63 Oh yeah! I don't think I will ever watch Old Yeller again!
Don't recall that scene in Dances With Wolves, but now I will be more aware! Lol
@@chrisdigitalartist As I love horror movies the best, they always seem today to always put a pet in there, so I'm always cautious. Now get this, they have a web site called, Does The Dog Die and that is an excellent site I always go to. It practically tells you not just dogs but all kinds of animals if they die or not. Also, forget me watching the Marley movie they made a few years ago as some others.
@@scottjo63 Oh wow! Didn't know a site like that exists!
@@chrisdigitalartist Yep it does, I use it royally whenever there's a dog, cat, rabbit, bird.......
Enjoyed this video. I had you pegged as an introvert. I have a similar birth order, I am the youngest of 4 with my oldest sibling 14 years older and my closest sibling 5.5 years older.
Superb video , thank you for sharing your facts about you
Stay awesome
Oh you have to do more of that song you said you're sort of proud of still, I'm sure WE ALL LOVE to hear it. And that story you decribed, that sounds so interesting. No complaints on this video. Oh I have 2 movie suggestions you could put on your list of movies, A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood with Tom Hanks as the late great Mr Roger's, perfect movie to watch back to back with the Stan And Ollie movie I suggested some time ago. Also if you wonder if they can ever make an original murder mystery today like they didn't with Murder On The Orient Express remake, try Knives Out with Daniel Craig and Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans (Capt. Amerca), and Christopher Plummer. I myself watched Train To Busan zombie movie, good suggestion from you there and will be rewatching Hell In The Pacific pretty soon. So, you have trouble with ice cream selecting, try me getting groceries, just get 4 or 5 items and it takes me a couple of hours for those 4 or 5 items. As always can't wait until your next video, thank for reading BYEE. (Now where did I get that from).
Your candor is commendable! Thanks for sharing. PS. If you haven't reviewed them yet, it might be best if you avoid those 'Children of the Corn' movies.
Jinkies ! Those are some truly fascinating facts, young lady ! Oodles of thanks for sharing ! Wise of you to not reveal your true name of too much personal info. Sad to say but in today's world, one can not bee too careful ! I certainly have not seen gray hairs on your head yet ! And I've myself have been wearing glasses since the 6th grade. My late mom collected owls too ! You clearly are a very creative & talented young lady ! And wonderfully sensitive & sweet too ! Bless your heart ! I'm sure you're a great blessing to your family & friends ! Please keep up the good work....love your perceptive, entertaining & informative videos ! Kudos, kiddo !! :-)
Aw, thank you! :)
@@Weiselberry You're quite welcome ! :-)
As a purveyor of rare gems, I may have 2 things that you will be glad you checked out if you do. I have no doubt that you have heard of these but, like most people, you may have never seen them. One is a film, "The Colossus Of New York". It is unlike anything else ever and has its own unique tone. It asks the existential questions that other films rarely do. It is fairly low budget but never in any category of ""bad". I'd call it chilling. I'd say its creepy. It's tragic. It's cheap but not campy, straight faced no matter how over the top it gets. It is the tale of a soul slowly dying. It is morbid though still science fiction. The cheap sound effects are blood curdling. It is not an original scenario but dives deep into the implications that similar scenarios avoid. After the first 60 seconds of the opening theme, you will "get it" . The other is a 50s TV series, "Science Fiction Theatre". It predated "Twilight Zone" and "Outer Limits". It alleges to be a docu-drama about real science. It is weird because it seems to take itself seriously, maybe prophetic, possibly insane. It has a host who sits at a lab table and tinkers with something that pertains to "this week's drama". Its "health class short subject" attitude makes it pretty weird. The first season was in color because the producers believed that this new invention, color TV, was about to sweep the nation, which it did not, not for a few years anyway. The next season was black and white. Both seasons are well done .
Another fact (possibly) is that Jerome dosen't like to swim in the ocean. If you know what her favorite Universal classic monster film is then you know why she prefers dry land😀🌴🌴.
I generally cry during pretty much every movie . . .
