Cinemadness

Itching. Itching I say.

I've become such a hater of the hollywood engine in the last several years, but now and again there are spots where a veritable herd of movies all descend at once and make a theater whore out of me. This is one such time.


Still waiting for this to find its way somewhere nearby:

MirrorMask

I've only been talking about this one forever, but it's finally almost here:

The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe

On the very same day that comes out we have these which I've been anxious about as well as new additions:

Brokeback Mountain

Memoirs of a Geisha

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance

Then later in the month we have:

The New World

Master of the Crimson Armor

And then much later of course is:

Superman Returns

X-Men 3 (Which I'm terrifed about actually)

I'm sure more will pop up here and there and there is a list about a mile long of indie stuff I'm dying to see that would take up too much room. I'll just note it as it comes.

Baby Boom

In related news, yours truly is on his way to becoming an uncle a third time over (Well, not technically since I have 2 nephews and another niece i'm meeting on my next trip up to Jersey in december).

My sister Tara announced to me the other day on the phone that her second is currently baking away in his/her own private womb. They're hoping for a boy, but if they have a girl Tara says she's still done. Two's the limit in the devers family it seems.



Let's hope he's cool like his Uncle Phred

Phred the Director

Anyone who knows me knows of my love for direction. Videos, movies, shorts, I love them all and wish I could make them as a career. For now though, I'll have to settle for this.

The Movies game has been sucking up my time a lot recently, though i haven't been *playing* that much. Most of the time sink has been actually making my own flicks. It's quite an involved process. I've made 2 shorts so far. My first was "The Bank, The Bandit and The Ballsy Blonde". It was met with decent reviews for being a freshman effort. My second has just uploaded and is a parody of Lost. Feel free to check them out at the link below. It's free to register and registered people can do movie reviews. Movie reviews will net me virtual credits as well that will later allow me to buy new props and sets from the Propshop. better props means better movies!
