movies

Just finishing up on the island this week was "8 Below" (slated to be a local favorite for obvious reasons) And "Brokeback Mountain" (The other so-called big movie). I'll admit, I haven't seen it.

I can wait.


As hot as Heath is, the story just didn't tweak my interest aside from skimming the book. But Dennis Quaid is having a shit fit because the movie made more money than anybody told him it would. Yet the filmmakers told the studio bosses that it would bring in a ton of money.


Do you know of many movies that don't tell the studion bosses that the movie is going to bring in a lot of money? Did Star Wars have this much of a problem with people wanting their money out of it? And we all know the draw was Heath and Jake. I wanna know how many people said "Dennis Who?"
I like Quaid's movies, but the guy needs to chill out or sit on his agent for a while. Somebody's got too big of an ego. You want to get back at the studio? Act so damn good that the next time you get a bit part in the film, make the critics say "Heath Who?"

Knock off the petty shit.



Screw it. But I am going to Download Carlos Mencia's version. Mario Lopez still looks good.

part 2

The Disney film crew just wrapped up their part in" The Guardian" this week. I might actually have to stomach my feelings about Ashton Kutcher enough to go watch it. Hell, Costner's in it.


The film better keep it's Kodiak footage. Incedentally, I was told that they used the KCGB sign on their set in North Carolina. They had a hell of a time finding a place to film, I heard. Their first base was in Louisiana when Katrina hit. Second was Kodiak, but we had the volcano issue. Third was Seattle, and their set blew away with the high winds. Then it was NC, where everything froze. You'd think they'd take a hint from mother nature, but nooo.


Then they came back for the pick-up shots and had to wait an extra day untill out 130mph winds had settled. They slipped in between the winds and the frickin' snowstorm.
Anyway, they're done now.

Hope lightning doesn't strike 'em on their way home.
