4 down 6 to go

...

Added on here the sweet and p-fork hyped, Yeasayer's "Ambling Alp" surreal video, though the naked bodies are fuzzed out in the one I could add through youtube to this site. you daresn't use your imagination or go to pitchfork.com to see the fun cookers unfuzzed now would you

I've made a holiday resolution to ease off the active search for websites that disagree with me. of course i still find it a little funny when somebody will trash how i met your mother's slapgiving episode and yet still include a page worth of adored one liners from that episode. i think at this point i'm just finding writers that can't hold it together or you know man conversely, they can't cut it loose;) in a related note I didn't make it past the 10 min. mark on the new transformers movie, i did laugh at m. fox's intro but that was it. i had the over/under of me watching 45 mins. of it so if you had the under....

everlong is always a good song to write to when it pops on. so the script is now at 67 pages and still not through flushing out the first act scenes that i've outlined let alone the 2nd and 3rd acts outlined scenes. does anyone even think in those terms anymore? i know what they mean but it's like i'm just about half way through the script and i've got a few more scenes to finish and then a couple new ones to write. once you get to 80+pages nobody will bat an eye about whether or not it's feature length assuming you write in the standard format which i am. my old cinematography teacher used to say it was really more like 2 min. a page instead of the industry stand of 1min a page and i guess i kinda started to let myself do that style where you write something like a guy walks out to his car, in the script but when you get there to shot it, you know you add these nervous looks around the corner and checking his cell phone and of course then the car is two blocks away but sure the basic gist of it is a guy walks to his car and you're really saying to everyone that's reading your script, just show up and i'll tell you what to do when we get there. you can prob see why the industry stand is a standard otherwise like only the writer/director has any real clue what's really going to happen in each scene.
