Sir Anthony Hopkin's Abraham Van Helsing vs. Hugh Jackman's Gabriel Van Helsing.

Hopkin's is clearly superior but can his good Professor face Jackman's toys?!
Find out only in this week's
Tales of a Mind with Nowt Better To Do!

After initial fisticuffs over Jackman's movie referring to Frankenstein's Monster directly as Frankenstein, we join the fight as Sir Anthony is clinging for dear life above...

And do what, ask "Oh by the way chap, are you dyslexic?" before excoriating someone for their horrendous spelling? LOTS of people are dyslexic. LOTS of people also have a thing called "spell checker".

Why can i never get my pics the right size?

Anyway, time for at least a semi decent update.
Still jobless and skint, but not starving. Left eye really hurts so I've had my contact out for a few days, resulting in me having to wink a lot of the time. ARRR!!! I'm still writing like a madman for the upcoming production*.
My sister was 21,...

I've just finished typing up 6 years worth of hand scrawls from post-it, rizlas and the pack of fag packs and 4 full note pads.

Not having a job is really paying off...
abortion:
Yeah lack of work makes you do all this shit you can't be bothered to do when you get home from slavery.

Oh the Love for a fine Cigar has a series of moments and can last a long time. Then of course you get Lung Cancer but who wants to live that 10 years you take away from smoking? Shitting myself and mumbling random bollocks to people on the bus is not my idea of the final chapter.

biggrin

Literally collecting your thoughts then!! biggrin

Well my mates have finished recording their album (in stores around September).
Check 'em out- http://www.myspace.com/defyledmusic
Oooh, and guess who did the lyrics for the chorus on Rotting Flesh?! My first album credit! biggrin

Still don't have BB at the new flat, hence sporadic updates. Mainly just writing and looking for a job. Hope you're all well. Hopefully making it down for the auditions in July.

In an attempt to recieve as little resistance as possible, Argentina dropped propanganda onto the Falklands prior to their invasion.
Unfortunatley, the propaganda was poorly vetted and although it was only the sayings of Ghandi promoting peace, someone forgot to remove-
"except the fucking Brits. Fuck them."

FACT!

Film equipment for under 400 quid, you say?

Well, best get a miniDV camera (lots of them under 200 on Ebay - go for Sony, Canon or JVC), & a super-8 camera (Ebay again, under 20 quid), a tripod (a small one from any 2nd-hand camera shop, or Ebay), some dv tapes and film stock, and procure some editing software such as Premiere or Final Cut Pro...
If you hunt around then 400 quid should just about cover all that...

One of the few Brit films to make it into this year's Cannes was a short film shot on super-8 and mini-dv, total cost - 400 quid.
Interview with the guy behind it is *here*.
Hope that helps.

Oh, and buy this book, this book, and probably this book. Oh, and drop out of film school and spend the money on actually making your own films... you learn a lot more that way.

You off to the Scala this Saturday dude?
