Olympic National Forest

Looking forward to seeing the Olympic National Park/Forest. Planning trip soon. A million acres -- sounds fun.

Trailer for Clint Eastwood's 'Richard Jewell'

Very impressed by trailer for Clint Eastwood's 'Richard Jewell'. Powerful, spooky, effective.

Struck by Kathy Bates -- arresting. Impressed by Jon Hamm's voice, as he asks Jewell (Paul Walter Hauser) to say 'There is a bomb in Centennial Park, you have thirty minutes'. Hauser's delivery here is, what can one say, pretty good? -- doesn't quite describe it.

I never see movies at the theater anymore. Looking forward to seeing this one. Another Eastwood triple down the line.

Wells...Again

Jeff Wells said, regarding an apology Joaquin Phoenix issued on Jimmy Kimmel's show:

"Don’t get me wrong — I’ll never hesitate to offer a sincere apology when warranted."

...I'll never hesitate to cite something dumb Jeff Wells has to say.

If Just One of Those Things Gets in Here

One of James Cameron's best sequences.

Attack of the Reliant, 'Fractile', and Other Hot Stuff

Really... When was the last time you treated yourself to the attack of the Reliant sequence from 'Star Trek: Wrath of Khan'?

If everybody watched this once a year, it would be a better world.


Also on the slate -- a movie called 'Fractile', which, if I play my cards right will star Nicole Kidman. All I can say is, "Damn peculiar."

'Jump Trackers'

I have a very cool idea for a bounty hunter thriller/drama. The genre doesn't have the best reputation, but this flick -- "Jump Trackers" -- has a beautiful throughline.

Dream cast includes Natalie Portman, Keira Knightley, Morgan Freeman, Clint Eastwood, and Charlie Sheen. Also seeking Tom Sizemore cause, just so perfect.

Proposed budget: $51,409...so give these guys a heads up if you see them.

Do You Believe...Ray?

I went to high school in Fayetteville, NC. This guy, Ray, was a speed demon guitarist from Boston. His brother, Mike, got up at five in the afternoon.

I really like 'King of Comedy' by Martin Scorsese. Think I'll remake it.

Wow! I found a fountain pen.

A decade is a long time.

I'm writing a 'duck-walks-into-a-bar' joke that features Sigourney Weaver. Should support a 9-picture franchise.

I think my feet are growing.
