Interivew with Spike Lee - Upcoming

Did an interview with director Spike Lee. Great guy. We had some fun with it. Look for it on IGN.com in the next few days.

Casino Royal - Big Blow Off

I was planning to see it this week. There were two screenings for the press. But when it came down to Thursday night, my roommate Tara and I decided to see the Boston Philharmonic.

So, I was planning on Bond, and opted for Mahler. I know it sounds kinda bad, but Bond will be around for a little while. No big whoop.

Lesson in Appreciation

As a freelancer, I always try to stay as positive as I can. There's a lot of rejection with this job. And I try hard to turn it in to something positive.

I guess I'm expressing this because I had a rough day today. I worked my ass off, offering the best material I can. But... some people just don't care, no matter how hard you try, they don't see what goes in to your creation and how much the work means to you.

But I understand. I realize other people have their own concerns, their own fears.

I just wish they'd take a moment to appreciate the people who make things happen for them.

Tenacious D: Interview with Liam Lynch

My interview with director Liam Lynch is now online over at IGN Moives.

This Friday, Jack Black and Kyle Gass bring Tenacious D to the big screen in The Pick of Destiny. The movie pits the acoustic metalheads against Satan — that's right, the Dark Lord himself — as they journey forth to acquire the most highly-prized treasure in the history of Rock & Roll.

Sure, Tenacious D brings the heat. But the man who makes it happen behind-the-scenes is director Liam Lych.

While editing a couple short films for The D — one for their live show and another for the movie's cast and crew screening — Lynch took time out to talk with IGN about the D's biggest quest: The Pick of Destiny.

LMK what you think.
Happy Feet Somebody Clip

Animated penquins singing Queen's "Somebody to Love." Would have been better if they used the actual song. But whatever. It's amusing.

Do watch.

Re: Marvel Comics Teams with Guiding Light

Guess what? I missed it.

Maybe it'll appear on YouTube.

There's got to be some way to watch this.

Mike Jittlov's The Wizard of Speed and Time

Talk about a blast from the past.


Mike Jittlov, a.k.a. The Wizard


I walked into Hollywood Video (on Mass Ave here in Cambridge) and the crew had Mike Jittlov's The Wizard of Speed and Time on the flatscreens.

I was at a loss for words. Really, just like I was almost 20 years ago when I first saw it, I was drawn in emotionally. It's such a goofy, fun and well made low-budget movie. Tons of charm. It captures the feeling of early '80s Hollywood dominated by Lucas and Spielberg.

If you haven't seen it, seek it out. You'll fall for the darn thing, too.

And check out Mike's site, Wizworld.com. There you'll find the trailer.

Sure wish this was available on DVD.

Official Site for Simon Pegg's Hot Fuzz

Brand new and lookin' cool.

Check out JoinTheFuzz.com

And click here for one of my interviews with Simon, an early piece about Hot Fuzz - We did the interview while Simon and director Edgar Wright were working on the Hot Fuzz script, literally. Simon was in a conference room jotting down scenes from the script on index cards and arranging them on the table.
