When you see this picture, do you imagine that he’s saying FFFFFFFFFF and UUUUUUUUUUU. As in, repeating the letter F and then the letter U, as though to say FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK YOUYOUYOUYOUYOUYOUYOUYOUYOUYOU?
Or do you imagine that we’re only seeing the first half of his long yelling of the work FFFFFUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKK?
Thor trailer.
I’ve been kind of thinking this for a little while, and now that we’re getting our first really solid look, I feel it even more. This movie looks kind of fucking goofy. I’ve never particularly given much of a shit about Thor. But then again, I never really gave much of a shit about Iron Man, but they managed to make that movie entertaining as hell.
I dunno. I’ll see it. But I’m not expecting much.
This sounds awesome and I am developing a fan-crush on Guillermo.
"The storyline for ‘The Haunted Mansion’ and the ride is quite open," he explained. "We are taking sort of the core mythology that you can tap into and saying that there are many mansions around the world and they’re all part of a sort of web. The spider sitting at the center of the web is what the fans of ‘The Haunted Mansion’ would know by the nickname the Hatbox Ghost, which is a beautiful creature that was created but there’s a legend that it was discarded on the first day of the ride’s operation because it was too scary. I like that legend, but the reality is that the imagineers could not make the illusion work, so they took it out. It’s more or less where the bride is in the attic on the way out of the mansion, but it’s such a great character that there is literally a cult for the Hatbox Ghost amongst hardcore ‘Haunted Mansion’ fanatics, and I’m one of them."

Ed from Barenaked Ladies has the same thing going on.
Canadian dudes tend to either have that look going on or some kind of weird squishy looking, almost not quite finished baking look that James Cameron, Dave Thomas and Wayne Gretzky have. Almost like they’re wearing latex masks over alien faces like in the original V. Damned Canadians, with their beady little eyes and flapping heads so full of lies.
Dan Aykroyd, btw, has both the squishy face and the lizard eyes look going on. That’s why it’s so believable in The Twilight Zone movie when he rips off his face and he’s got that crazy goblin head thing going on.
I just found out that David Warner was originally cast as Freddy in the first Nightmare on Elm Street movie. That’s crazy nuts!
Also, Peter Jackson was wrote one of the first drafts of Freddy’s Dead, and that’s how his relationship with New Line Cinema started, which facilitated the production of the Lord of the Rings movies.
Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy is pretty interesting, if you’re a fan of the series and you’ve got four hours to kill.
Full trailer for Let Me In, the American adaptation of the book Let the Right One In.
I’m hearing a lot of people bitching that this movie appears to be a shot for shot remake of the Swedish movie. These people are clearly on crack. Yes, there is undoubtedly be a few shots that are similar. They’re adapting the same same story. There’s only so many ways you can shoot two kids sitting on a jungle gym playing with a Rubix cube. I don’t think they should deliberately go out of their way to make anything different from the previous film. They just adapt the book how they adapt the book. There are bound to be similarities between the two movies.
Besides, you can’t please everyone. People will bitch if it’s too much like the first film. They’ll bitch if it’s not close enough to the first one. Whatever.
All I care about is whether it’s a good movie or not. The book was brilliant, the Swedish film was brilliant and this movie has potential to be brilliant. We’ll see. Everything I’ve seen so far looks good to me.
Have you seen this?
THIS SHIT IS BLOWING MY MIND. He looks thirty years younger!
So my new movie BFF Guillermo Del Toro is directing and producing a new Haunted Mansion movie (he says that they “aren’t returning Eddie Murphy’s calls” when is a nice way to say “FUCK THAT LAST MOVIE”) and it’s going to fucking rule. Because Guillermo Del Toro is the fucking man, and I looove me some Haunted Mansion.
It sucks too because Sandra and I almost always go to Disneyland in the winter, because it’s usually not very busy and Sandra’s weak Canadian blood can’t handle California’s heat in the summer. But because of that, whenever we go to Disneyland, The Haunted Mansion is always either decked out with the stupid Nightmare Before Christmas version, or it’s closed because they’re setting up or taking down the stupid Nightmare Before Christmas version.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the Nightmare Before Christmas Mansion, but I haven’t seen the real Haunted Mansion in a really long time and I miss it.
Is going to be the worst movie ever
Nice mask.
I lost a fuck ton of stuff in a harddrive crash a few years ago. A pile of screenplays, pretty much ALL of my Billiam stuff. Years and years worth of photos from our digital camera. Pictures of Christmases, Disneyland trips, various vacations and just general every pictures and stuff. Pictures of my degus. Plus just years and years worth of computer shit. All gone.
I found that harddrive and on a goof decided to plug it into my external harddrive casing. AND IT BOOTED UP.
I got it all back. The screenplays were the big ones. That was really exciting. The photos were great. All the Billiam stuff.
I’m very happy. I don’t know why having all this old shit makes me happy. I mean, it’s not like there’s really anything I can do with it. But it does. And the screenplays are really awesome to have back. And the digital camera pictures.
It’s weird though, browsing through all of this old shit. It’s all sorted by date and I’m just going through thousands and thousands of pictures that I’ve saved over the years. Just random shit and stuff that was relevant to me at one point and just weird shit, and then all of a sudden there’s a block of like, forty pictures of the world trade center with smoke billowing out of it.
Which also kind of gives me a time frame too.
I was hoping I would get Stephen King.
I don’t know that the parameters (if any) they use to analyze your writing.
I’m working on “inking” my drawing of Salad Fingers in photoshop. Thought I’d share.

Day 08 – A show everyone should watch
I dunno. Everyone likes different shit and I can’t really think of a show that can possibly appeal to everyone. I think that everyone, at some point in their life, should Sesame Street.
Day 09 – Best scene ever
Hmm. I don’t know if it’s the BEST scene, but one scene that I always remember, even when I don’t remember anything else about the episode, was a scene from Rosanne. Dan and Rosanne had kicked David out of the house and told Darlene that they didn’t want her seeing him anymore. Darlene was living in the basement and she talked David into sneaking through the window into her room in the basement. Dan comes in while they’re making out and starts throwing David around and screaming in his face. It was pretty damned intense.
here:
You gotta skip to about 3 minutes in.
Day 10 – A show you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving
There’s been a few. Glee is the first one that comes to mind. Battlestar Galactica. True Blood (though I’m starting to dislike it).
Day 11 – A show that disappointed you
V. The new one. I don’t know why I thought it was going to be good, but it really wasn’t. Entourage has sure tanked too.
Day 12 – An episode you’ve watched more than 5 times
I’m sure there are episodes of The Simpsons that I’ve seen fifteen or twenty times. They play The Office in syndication a lot, and Sandra tends to watch it whenever there’s nothing else on. I feel like I’ve seen a lot of those episodes well over five times.
Day 13 – Favorite childhood show
That’s kind of vague. I mean, at what point in my childhood are we talking about here? Probably Quantum Leap.
