RIP Stan Lee

 

I was thinking of him only yesterday and wondering about "Excelsior".  I found this poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.  I wonder if it is the root for him.  I can imagine a  young boy knowing this poem:

The shades of night were falling fast,
As through an Alpine village passed
A youth, who bore, 'mid snow and ice,
A banner with the strange device,
      Excelsior!
 
His brow was sad; his eye beneath,
Flashed like a falchion from its sheath,
And like a silver clarion rung
The accents of that unknown tongue,
      Excelsior!
 
In happy homes he saw the light
Of household fires gleam warm and bright;
Above, the spectral glaciers shone,
And from his lips escaped a groan,
      Excelsior!
 
"Try not the Pass!" the old man said;
"Dark lowers the tempest overhead,
The roaring torrent is deep and wide!"
And loud that clarion voice replied,
      Excelsior!
 
"Oh stay," the maiden said, "and rest
Thy weary head upon this breast! "
A tear stood in his bright blue eye,
But still he answered, with a sigh,
      Excelsior!
 
"Beware the pine-tree's withered branch!
Beware the awful avalanche!"
This was the peasant's last Good-night,
A voice replied, far up the height,
      Excelsior!
 
At break of day, as heavenward
The pious monks of Saint Bernard
Uttered the oft-repeated prayer,
A voice cried through the startled air,
      Excelsior!
 
A traveller, by the faithful hound,
Half-buried in the snow was found,
Still grasping in his hand of ice
That banner with the strange device,
      Excelsior!
 
There in the twilight cold and gray,
Lifeless, but beautiful, he lay,
And from the sky, serene and far,
A voice fell like a falling star,
      Excelsior!

Claire Foy & Chuck Lorre Set For Honors At Critics’ Choice Awards

The Critics’ Choice Awards will honor The Girl in the Spider’s Web star and The Crown alum Claire Foy and sitcom hitmaker Chuck Lorre at its 24th annual ceremony next month.

The Big Bang Theory creator Lorre — whose recent credits also include Netflix’s The Kominsky Method and Disjointed and CBS’ Young Sheldon and Mom — is set for Critics’ Choice Creative Achievement Award. It recognizes a body of work that stands out for its sustained excellence over a period of decades on programs that have delighted huge audiences with tremendous laughter and clever insights into the human condition.

Big Bang, Kominsky, Sheldon and Mom all are nominated for Crtics’ Choice Awards this year.

The Big Bang Theory has been called the most successful television comedy ever, so it seems like the perfect time to honor Chuck as that show gets ready to ride off into the sunset,” said Joey Berlin, President of the Broadcast Film Critics Association. “For a quarter of a century Chuck has been keeping us in stitches with comedies of remarkable hilarity and consistency, delighting viewers and critics alike.”

The Critics’ Choice Awards are presented by the the BFCA and the Broadcast Television Journalists Association. The CW will air the January 13 ceremony live from Barker Hangar in Santa Monica.

'Black Panther' Star and 'Big Bang Theory' Cast Among 76th Golden Globe Awards Presenters

The 2019 Golden Globes are gearing up to kick off this year's film awards season in earnest, with Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh helming the ship as the night's comedic hosting duo.

Now, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has started to reveal which A-list stars are going to help make the show run smoothly as the night's big presenters, and ET has exclusively learned a few of the celebs who will be handing out the coveted trophies.

Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman is among the many stars who will take the stage during the star-studded show. 

The 41-year-old Marvel hero's blockbuster epic, which hit theaters with a deafening roar back in February, is nominated for three Golden Globes, including Best Picture - Drama, Best Original Score and Best Original Song for the track, "All the Stars."

Additionally, The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco, Johnny Galecki and Jim Parsons will also be serving as presenters. All three have been nominated for Golden Globes in past years for their hit CBS sitcom, with Parsons taking home the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a TV Series - Comedy or Musical back in 2011.
