    archived-videos I won best Villian in our 48 hr fest

    Congrats on the win! Third script in the morning is always rough! I'm the music guy, so I've learned to just get a good night's sleep on Friday because everything will be different by the time the cameras start rolling Saturday morning! I'm also in favor of prep-work. My current team...

    I didn't understand the plot to Rosemary's Baby.

    It's almost Halloween, I like this movie, so let's address this seriously! You are responding to the movie like it is an action/crime based thriller and not a religious/occult based psychological thriller. They are not "criminals", they are "cultists". So to your points: - the power of evil...

    archived-videos Time Out - a 48 hour film

    The horror challenge was this weekend (because two in one year wasn't enough). Unfortunately, we missed it by 12 minutes...the first two render attempts failed, and the third didn't finish until after the deadline. Required elements were Character: Justin or Justine Cohen, Podcast/Radio Host...

    Farscape is going ahead with a movie.

    Frell yes! There are some pretty good comic books that take place after the Peacekeeper Wars (Rockne O'Bannon was involved in writing them), but it would be great seeing something on the big screen! Farscape was a show that wasn't afraid to get really, really weird, and I loved it!

    movies What's the last film you watched? And rate it!

    The extended LOTR films are definitely for fans of the books. Most of the scenes are either from the books or doing some damage control for changes in the films (Faramir in particular). I haven't watched the theatrical versions since they were in the theaters, but throw on the extended cuts...

    Darren Bousman "A Family Affair"

    Very cool story on his blog! I wasn't that crazy about the Devil's Carnival (I LOVED Repo), but Repo was developed over the course of about 10 years as a stage show. Reminds me of the old adage: you have years to make your first album but months to make your second. Your teacher has told an...

    Twin Peaks!

    Yes, you really should! The second season gets beat up a lot for some meandering side-plots (do we really want to see more James and Donna? The answer is no.) but once it starts getting into the meat of what the story was about in the first place, it's astounding. There are some amazing...

    It's Time Again... MidKnightly 2013!

    I'm crazy busy this month (a haunted house and the horror 48, plus starting a couple shorts and writing some new non-film music). That said, if anyone wants to use some of my old music, let me know!

    top-list What are your top ten films of all time?

    I'll play! It will likely change tomorrow, but here's what they are today: 1) Legend (Scott, 1985) - Okay, this one won't change. My favorite film. I should also add: the US theatrical cut (or the tv version, which adds a couple great scenes, but keeps the Tangerine Dream score). I could...

    Online gaming

    Not sure what folks are playing these days...I'm not much of an MMO fan (played EQ a bit with my girlfriend...tons of fun when we were in the same room, but even with computers just in a different room? Not my cup of tea). I played the free-to-play marvel game for a while (mostly because you...

    movies What's the last film you watched? And rate it!

    Finally got around to watching Brick Mansions. As remakes go, it's not bad (having David Belle reprise his role certainly helped). Pretty straight forward; Luc Besson did the script for both, so not a lot of surprises if you've seen the original (District B-13). Well, one surprise and it's...

    Any Ubuntu users out there?

    huh. hadn't heard of that before, but a bit of looking about: https://fixubuntu.com/ (looks like 14.10 is fine). It looks like the crap is confined to Unity (I always liked KDE better, but that's force of habit more than anything else). Anyway, I know we have a few linux folks around. I have...

    It is that easy. As a musician, I want people to hear my stuff. I want people to use songs in movies and I get excited when they ask! Just send them an e-mail, or message on youtube/soundcloud/reverbnation/wherever you find them. Say you like their stuff, send a link to some of your past...
