Strange Connections

[tinhuviel]

See, this is what my brain does at night instead of sleeping. Here goes...

• Barry Andrews has created a character and is developing a musical around him called Vile Homunculus.
• The first time I ever heard the word "homunculus" was in a Tom Baker Dr. Who episode called The Talons of Weng Chiang.
• Dr. Who was referring to Mr. Sin when he uttered the word.
• Mr. Sin was played by a very young actor by the name of Deep Roy.
• Deep Roy later on played every Oompa Loompa in Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
• As the Oompa Loompas, Deep Roy performed all the songs in the movie.
• But he was actually lipsynching Danny Elfman, who wrote the score and the songs for Charlie.

So, once again, B and Danny Elfman are connected in my head. Now, wasn't that fun?
