Talk:Twenty Years After

message: I doubt I am spoiling anything for anyone, but just in case...SPOILER AHEAD.
Right.  The first victim of Mordaunt in Twenty Years After is the executioner who, at the behest of the Musketeers, beheads Milady at the end of The Three Musketeers as punishment for her many crimes (including, as it turns out, one for which the executioner has personal reasons for vengeance as well).  In The Three Musketeers, he is said to be able to mete out the death penalty without himself being guilty of murder because in real life he is actually the official executioner of Lille as well.
In Twenty Years After, this same person is said to be the executioner of Bethune, not Lille.  Barring the possibility that the executioner changed the town for which he acted as official executioner during the 20 years that separate the timeline of the two books (which I realize is a possibility, albeit a remote one), has anyone ever explained how Dumas (who wrote the two books within a short time span of each other) mixed up the names of the two towns?  --Partnerfrance (talk) 17:58, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Talk:The Vicomte of Bragelonne: Ten Years Later

AND WHICH IS THE FIRST VOLUME? THE "VICOMTE DE BRAGELONNE"?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.196.194.59 (talk) 23:54, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I changed this:
In the meantime, Raoul, Athos' adopted son, is recruited to fight a war against the Arabs, and after his departure Athos sinks into a deep depression, rapidly becoming old and feeble.  When he learns Raoul has died in the war, Athos succumbs to his grief and dies, with Dumas providing a touching and unforgettable description of Athos' decline and final moments.  
to this:
In the meantime, Raoul, Athos' adopted son, devastated by his fiancée's love affair with the French king, volunteers to fight a war against the Arabs, and after his departure Athos sinks into a deep depression, rapidly becoming old and feeble.  When he learns Raoul has died in the war, Athos succumbs to his grief and dies, with Dumas providing a touching and unforgettable description of Athos' decline and final moments.
All in all, I think this is a poor wiki on Dumas' best book. As for the plot, it's not about the musketeers, it's about Louis and his court. The musketeers are irrelevant to the story.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.212.11.150 (talk) 14:58, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Dick Quax

message: User DerbyCountyinNZ on at 00:37, 17 August 2007 inserted a claim that Quax did not participate in the 1972 Summer Olympics, which has remained undisputed for almost two years.  I have found no support for this claim and at least two references indicating the Quax competed for New Zealand in the 5000m.  In interviews Quax has stated that he watched the terrorist attack on the Isreali dorms in the Olympic village through his bathroom window.  Does anyone have any support for the claim that he did not go to the 1972 Summer Olympics? Racepacket (talk) 14:49, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: According to the WP article on New Zealand at the 1972 Summer Olympics, Quax competed in the 5000m, being eliminated after running 14:35.2 in the heats. I think we should take the presence of a time in that article as stronger evidence that he did participate, compared to an unsupported claim to the contrary. I will remove the (apparently) mistaken claim from the article. Chris Loosley (talk) 10:04, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

text: Wow! I don't even remember making this edit, although it was 11 years ago! It's a shame someone didn't pull me up on this at the time, because now I have no idea where I got the idea that Quax missed the 72 Olympics. How embarrassing. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 04:13, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

message: this admittedly feels unseemly, but adding 'Today, another has passed.' to the line 'On his 80th birthday, when asked about his experience in the War, Wilson refused to speak of it, saying, "I lost too many good wing men."' seems not in the spirit of wikipedia? this in no way is meant to diminish a truly impressive & appreciated fact about him--Snideology (talk) 03:32, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

message: The previous version (and other sites) erroneously state that Wilson flew fighters in the Battle of Britain.  That is demonstrably false.  His name does not appear on the RAF roster in Francis K. Mason's encyclopedic "Battle Over Britain," and the only Canadian named Wilson was killed in the battle.  Apparently Wilson served as an bomber pilot, as noted here:

Talk:Dickie Moore (actor)

message: Moore married Jane Powell when he was about 62. Is she his first wife? Does he have any children? 
In 2006, he appeared on a Turner Classic Movies panel discussion on what it was like to be a child actor in Hollywood, Private Screenings: Child Stars. He was interviewed by Robert Osborne along with Jane Withers, Darryl Hickman, and Margaret O'Brien. It is rebroadcast intermittently (I saw it in 2010 when it was broadcast as part of Jane Withers day at TCM). I thought that since it's Dickie Moore day on TCM, that they might air it, but I don't see it on the schedule. 
Moore's filmography is extensive, far more extensive than his wife's, Jane Powell. He was in great demand during his child acting years. Though his roles rarely starred, he supported starring roles with aplomb and reliability, always turning out excellent child characters. However, his article is quite skimpy in comparison to Powell's. Is there nothing more to say about him? Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 17:54, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
