I lost an entire chapter, but that's ok cuz I basically scrapped everything it was about. The month is half over and I should be some 25,000 words in. Eh, how bout barely 10,000. Even if I don't finish by the end of November. I'll keep going because I actually like the characters and the story once I got rid of the extraneous riff raff.

I wish I could draw. I'd make a graphic novel series or 2.

Writing a Book Isn't As Easy As It Looks

2011-09-03 0:48 / 会员可以看

Alright, it doesn't look easy. If I'd stop reading what I've written and just write, I might finish before old age. The problem? I'm too descriptive/wordy for a script and not descriptive/wordy enough for a book. If I could draw, I'd turn to graphic novels.

That's what I've been up to. Well, that and playing games on Facebook.

Electronic Santa Addiction

2010-12-16 5:34 / 会员可以看

I am so addicted to this stupid song and video. I'm even in love with the Target commercial. Besides making me laugh for some reason it always reminds me of VanNess. Damned if I know why. If you were to hold a gun to my head, I'd probably come up with something. Short of that, I gots nuthin'!

I'm half tempted to buy Blazer Force's cd. le sigh

Sing it with me! Ready? Let's go:
Electronic Santa's going to
ro-ro-rock your body.
Rock your body body.
Electronic Santa knows if
you've been nice or naughty.
nice or naughty.
Electronic Santa's going to
ro-ro-rock your body.
Rock your body body.
Electronic Santa's going to
crash your Christmas party.
Crash your Christmas party.

For some reason the 32 second Target commercial won't post. It can be found on youtube here.

A Review: The Last Airbender

2010-08-23 6:45 / 会员可以看

I acquired a copy of the movie. I did not pay my money for this crap.

The Last Airbender is an absolutely joyless and hideous movie. M. Night committed the #1 cardinal cinematic sin. He made a boring movie. This may be somewhat long because I'm going to try to review this as not only a HUGE fan of the cartoon series, but as a HUGE fan of fantasy action movies as well. Night failed colossally. Forget about the dubious casting, the adaptation is simply poor. The story isn't cohesive. It has gaps for anyone who doesn't already know the story and moves too fast for those that do.

It seems to me that when one writes an adaptation you want to keep the core of the story in tact. Obviously, Night's casting showed he wasn't interested in that, but it's further illustrated by changes in name pronunciation. Aang (ayng) becomes Ong and Sokka (sock-ah) becomes Sooka (so-kah) in the movie. Did Cameron's Avatar not only prompt a name change, but also pronunciation change? The cast says ah-vatar in most scenes. Yes, I know tomayto tahmahto but it annoyed the heck out of me. How could I waste so much time during a movie annoyed at pronuciation? It's easy when there's nothing else to do. Not only did I not enjoy the script and casting, but the acting is stiff and paper thin. Out of the 4 leads only Jackson Rathbone showed skill. Dev Patel seriously overacted. The young actor that played Aang can not act and the actress playing Katara was just slightly above him.

The movie, unlike the cartoon, is dark. No matter what the storyline Aang, Sokka, and Katara always managed to laugh and have fun in the cartoon. They're children afterall. They knew when to be serious, but they relaxed as well. The only dour character is Zuko. In the movie they're all dour. Aang doesn't laugh. He doesn't fly around on his air ball or much on his glider. I understand not everything can make it into a movie, but to omit Aang love of life was a serious mistake.

The fight scenes were half decent. The choreography was great but the filming of it wasn't. Benders were fighting without bending. Huh? One on one bending fights were short, very short. The CGI bending budget must've been low. The only good things about The Last Airbender are the sets (obviously where the bending budget went) and Shaun Toub as Uncle Iroh. Though he didn't look like Iroh and no one can compare to Mako's commanding voice, Toub did a good job showing Iroh's true nature. The sets were perfect. Everything else was pure unadulterated crap.

Nothing much to tell. I'm a lover of art and the artists who share their abilities. I wouldn't mind finding inspiration for my writing. I'm an undercover nerd and once considered a career in archeaology. 5 good adjectives to describe me? secretive, real, wise (I've got common sense to spare), somewhat silly, & eccentric. Yeah, I'm also a little weird, but I have a killer (sometimes underappreciated) sense of humor. I'm also a Reiki Master, but shhhhh! don't tell.
