I liked how they introduced her, like "her mother died in an insane asylum thinking she was Queen Victoria" and my thought was, I like where I think this is going. I was not disappointed.
Since we all knew that Death was too scared of Christopher Lee for Lee to ever actually die, the consensus on Twitter is that Death is actually stepping down and Sir Christopher is assuming the post.Congratulations on your promotion, Sir Christopher. An excellent capstone to a life well-lived.
We have to understand that no matter what we do with our lives we will never be as awesome as Christopher Lee is.I will never get over how he corrected Peter Jackson on the proper sound a man makes when he’s been stabbed in the back because he actually worked in the British clandestine services.Or how he volunteered to fight in one of the most brutal fronts of WWII (the Finnish-Russian Winter War).Or how he was fucking NAZI HUNTER.Basically, Christopher Lee is the real Most Interesting Man in the world and I honestly don’t know why we tell Chuck Norris jokes And then I see him rambling on about how Saruman and Gandalf are actually Istari, which are one of the Maia in the LotR commentaries and I realize he literally cannot become more awesome.Oh can’t he?#Christopher Lee wrote a Metal Opera about Charlemagne #all opinions are irrelevantGOD HE’S HARDCORE AS FUCKHe’s also played Dracula like 5 billion times and in the first one he refused to use the terrible dialogue and wasn’t fired.He was also bros with Vincent Price and Peter Cushing, but unlike them was able to get away from the horror genre and forged a well-rounded career.He can speak 8 languages and will sometimes do his own dubbing for foreign versions of his films.His family carries the coat of arms of the Holy Roman Empire.He was related to John Lee, Robert E. Lee, and Ian Fleming.He really was the most interesting man in the world.do you ever just cry because christopher leeThis is why I can’t have nice things… because Christopher Lee has them all already.reblogging today because we have lost the Most Interesting Man In the Worldwe will not see his kind again
