Bush's speech blames Congress for ALL of the problems he's caused and not acknowledging any of the problems he and his 'war' have caused.
I never thought I could hate Bush/Cheney more than I already did. Geez. |

Obama is an idiot, hopefully people get past charisma.
Mitt is another Bush, saying whatever he needs to get elected.
(as the Times reports- all politicians pose, but Mitt apparently took it to a new level in Detroit)
Huckabee I don't know much about,
Guliani I don't trust,
*McCain would be one of the most (relatively) sincere/honest politicians, but he needs to dump the Iraq war mess and I sadly don't know if he would get a heart attack and pass on the mantle to an unknown vp if elected-
*Hilary seems to be the best choice, but, geez, in listening to her one-minute ads, it's amazing how charmless she is as a politician.
Hilary or McCain I could live with. Get rid of the rest of the morons. |

"Screenwriting isn't like other professions. There is no guarantee of employment week to week or year to year. It is a feast or famine business, and when the music stops, you may not still have a chair. As a film school teacher once described it -- you can't make a living, but you can make a killing. It is those times when you are working that you have to plan for the future, because it doesn't last forever. Miles and I have been writing together for 15 years now. Each year I wonder if this is when it all comes crashing down.
I know that if most people have even heard of a screen or television writer, it is usually someone high profile and rich. However, the majority of writers in our guild are middle class. They live paycheck to paycheck. Residuals are what get you through the lean times, so that you can continue doing what you love for as long as you can, and still support your family."
hmnnn.... reaffirming what I was thinking... even though getting a pro script or a spec script for tv writing seems like jumping over the grand canyon, it's interesting (and a wakeup call for dreamers) to read that it may be similiar to winning the lottery, but the $2,000 or $5,000 lottery, not the million dollar ones. |

I've just sent my film as a submission to CInequest.
Please, everyone, pray for this and world peace. And for relief from global warming. And for cheaper gas.
Thanks. |

Wouldn't it be nice if we had the same type of poll for George Bush Jr. as Bond's baseball?
http://www.vote756.com/marcecko/
If there were, here would be the choices:
a- let Bush go into the history books as is
b- brand him with an asterisk
c- shoot him into space and forget about him.
Ten guesses as to what I'd choose. ;p |

In addition to DVD special editions, collector's editions, ultimate editions, aud nauseum... there have apparently also been exclusive bonus discs at various stores for awhile. Growl!
Apparentlly, only the Target version of "Dexter" has a chat with the cast and crew. Hrm. |

| Dexter |
[Aug. 25th, 2007|11:47 pm] |
Wow... "Dexter" is a PHENOMENAL tv series. A large part is Michael C. Hall, who was so great in "Six Feet Under" as the title character who's a 'serial killer for good'. Even though it's based on a series of novels, I'm suprised that they're pulling it off so well... and it's good to hear that the author of the novels approves all the changes to his book. |

| Caveman times? |
[Jun. 9th, 2007|11:45 pm] |
Just finished viewing "Children of Men" (excellent film) and the bonus features, including the fx of global warming not talked that much about... basically, shortage of food and water globally, and how mankind will devolve to figure out how to survive again. Caveman times are here?
*sigh* |

| Compositing crazy |
[May. 14th, 2007|08:07 am] |
FINALLY figured out how to work Aftereffects properly.
It's basically a software that will let you 'cut out' a person from one film and 'paste in' them into another. What this will allow creatively is astounding.... and I think I would not mind a job compositing if I can become an expert on this. Will see.
Tonight- meet Jeff's student to talk more about his film. Later |
