{I was raised in your shadow. Now you're gonna die in mine. No one will even remember your name.}

Some self indulgence by way of pimpage.



This is John Glover.

If you are one of the many, many people in the world who doesn't watch Smallville, you may not know who John Glover is. I would like to change that. And while I'm at it, I'll pimp the new Glover comm, [livejournal.com profile] passtheyams. How does that sound?

from Smallville. As Lionel Luthor, the Magnificent Bastard.
Was he good? Was he evil? All we really know for sure is that he and his hair were awesome.


"I'll shave my head if you film it."



;_______________;
Also, one of the most awesome things ever.




The scene in which Clark is overwhelmingy cheesy and Lionel passes the yams.

&& completely unrelated basically but I had to include this. Because I can. It's Derek, one of the hosts of Starkville's House of El, with his commentary on the above scene.




Shredding a gremlin in Gremlins 2 (1990).



As The Devil in the shortlived late '90s series Brimstone, of which Reaper is shockingly reminisent.



In The Drowsy Chaperone on Broadway (2007).

I think they should have Glover passing yams in like every show he guest stars on. Like "My God! If we don't have those yams the villain will win! IF ONLY SOMEONE WOULD PASS THEM!" And Glover comes crashing through a window to save the day.

He was also in Scrooged. And some other thing that I can't remember. Damn my memory.

He's so awesome and he has the greatest voice. I have this book-on-tape of a Stephen King story and it's an ok story (pretty meh as far as Stephen King goes, but anyway, I love him), but the main reason I bought it (other than that it was cheap) was that John Glover was the narrator. XD This was ages ago (hence it being on cassette tape).

HE HAS THE BEST VOICE EVER.
I WOULD NOT MIND ONE BIT LISTENING TO HIM READ THE PHONE BOOK.

OMG, "passtheyams" is PERFECT!

And that video with Derek from SHoE? AHAHAHAHAHA, so funny. "Y'all are gonna pass rolls in slow motion anyway." HEE. Made of win.

But ahem, yes. On topic. JOHN GLOVER IS AWESOOOOME. TRUFAX.

"Gabriel ... son ... all you need to do to redeem yourself is ... yes, you need to pass the yams."

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
LIONEL, ARE YOU SLEEPING WITH MARTHA? IS THAT IT? IS THAT IT MARTHA?
Lionel: *looks down guiltily*
Martha: *beams*

OMG MY EYES. WHY DEREK, WHY????


"Gabriel ... son ... all you need to do to redeem yourself is ... yes, you need to pass the yams."

YES. PRECISELY.

LIONEL, ARE YOU SLEEPING WITH MARTHA? IS THAT IT? IS THAT IT MARTHA?
Lionel: *looks down guiltily*

AHAHAHAHA PERFERCT. Poor Lionel. And the "Ollie! Over here, man. *points to self*". HEEEEE.

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
AND THEN OLLIE'S EYES, LIKE, SHIFT UP TOWARDS HIM.
SO AWESOME.

[identity profile] starry-dawn.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
AND THEN IT'S ALL PROMPTLY FORGOTTEN ONCE HE AND LOIS START MAKING OUT. ♥

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
LOIS! OLIVER! COULD YOU TWO STOP MAKING OUT FOR, LIKE, TWO SECONDS?
It's so true when I think back to S6.

[identity profile] shelly505.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, how I love that man.
And LMAO at Derek's commentary! I love that picture too. I've seen it before but it never gets old! He looks so young and different!

I miss Lionel :(

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Me too. :D
I've always thought it was so funny that Chloe was sitting right next to him at dinner. Oh, Smallville. How soon we forget who tried to kill who.

Me too. :(

[identity profile] shelly505.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
LOL I always thought that was funny too.
I mean, it was only a few years ago he tried to kill her. People usually dont forget about things like that.

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose circumstances changed during the time in between, but still. I mean, seriously. Going to him for help is one thing, having Thanksgiving dinner right now to him is completely different.

Oh, I LOVE your icon. May it snag it, pretty please? :D

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
Of course.

EDIT: OH WAIT NO! THAT'S NOT MY COMMENT! Damn your comment stalking, confusing me all to hell. *is embarassed*

[identity profile] starry-dawn.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
AHAHAHAHA, who's a self-admitted comment stalker? *points*

But your icon is pretty awesome too. I'm gonna snag it! :D

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, yes. But that's usually not in my journal. I'm not used to it from the other direction.

[identity profile] starry-dawn.livejournal.com 2008-12-31 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Well, babe ... unfortunately you've made friends who are just like you! \o/

[identity profile] shelly505.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
But of course! ;D
[livejournal.com profile] letsey_x made it! I love it too!

[identity profile] starry-dawn.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yay! :D

[identity profile] lonelywalker.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
Hee. Awesome. Thank you for pimping out the comm. And excuse me for barging into your journal like this.

I'd never seen that SHoE commentary before. Oh, so true.

([livejournal.com profile] passtheyams!)

[identity profile] burningqueen.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
No problem! I couldn't resist, honestly.

I just stumbled over it while looking for that scene and I had to post it. :D

[identity profile] cifan70.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 11:29 am (UTC)(link)
This was great. I already signed up for the comm. Love John Glover. I miss him so much. Loved the videospam. The commentary was my fav. Hilarious. Didn't know he was in the Gremlins movie. I have seen them, just been a while. Great job again on this.
