^^yeah, i'm not sure why i got all excited about that.

ok so you've got a chance to see jesus an the mary chain live, take yourself a camcorder an i'd pay for you to go, an the quickest way to get the job is too basically act like a free hooker until you get it then put the chastity belt back on

i just wish they hadn't.

ooh ark at oohs gettin all articulate

I walk a fine line with book to movie type situations. I used to read a lot and i enjoy film very much. Once upon a time i wanted the movies to reflect the books the were being made from. but as a filmmaker of sorts, i can't help but to want to make the film better than the book. Some books i've held with lofty ideals but even in those i can see areas that can be improved and if you can improve on it, i say do it.

But as i said i walk a fine line in a grey area.

I've not seen the Good German yet and given your review i'm not sure i ever will.

Glad you found it clever but as you can see from my resume... i was an advertising whore, paid to be a smart ass. If only i could get it out of my systme entirely i might be a better human being.

I write scripts frequently and i've often thought about doing an adaptation for fun to see how it would work. I've put some time into the thought and i realise that if i were to adapt it'd stick to the narrative of the book but structure it filmatically and above all stick to the tone. As far as characters are concerned, so many books are written in the first person (something which is quite incompatable with film) i would have to take the characters and tweak their arcs to fit the plot, tone and duration of the film. Anything else i could add to please the hardcore fans, i would do my best ie. flashy cinematography, great art direction, costume etc. when it came to shooting.

On that note, there is one novel i was born to make into a feature "Twelve" by Nick McDonell. In my dream existance this would be the follow up to my first feature.

Yup. I went to film school at Cap...
Some of my family lives here too.

Whoever told you negative things, was telling you the truth.

They teach you about things, but nothing really about applying them. They offer no help towards any practical experience, and some actually don't know what they are talking about, and are really apaththetic about everything. It's just generally not a good program.
There are only 2 teachers there, i think are actually good at teaching.
Well, when i was there at least.

So i ditched to Toronto. But now i'm back. for the time being at least.

yeah NY was great, i'm back home now it was just a research visit for movin there

Thanks for adding to the tattoo thread. You said that you think tattoo's are way hot can you tell me then why if so many people get them (like yourself) to mark a significant occasion, feeling or event; then why have they become so fashionable and attractive to people? What makes them so hot?
