It sounds like you're in extreme form of denial. I mean really, this wouldn't have happened if you didn't react so strongly to WRC saying he didn't like SSB.

It's like if I reacted so strongly everytime I hear you guys diss Heavy Rain or Cage, cause I am a fan of QD's work. But even I joke about it cause I really don't care.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

After putting it off for so long, I finally sent my contact the email with the logline for DEUX. This is what I ended up going with (written exactly like this):

Struggling with an unpaid debt, a twenty something signs up as a weapons tester in a high-tech duel, but to get his pay he must defeat his next opponent--an adversary he can't seem to kill .

It felt like the best one to go with. It summarizes the plot pretty well, not only that the way its written is pleasing to the eyes and reads well. Hopefully attention grabbing. Crossing my fingers he sends this out to any agents, and pray to ANY CELESTIAL BEINGS OUT THERE IN THE STRATOSPHERE that one of them bites.

Re: A Good Day to Die Hard

They did but it was dubbed in pretty bad. Same with the gore and violence.

Would've been much better if they shot an R rated film THEN edit the shit out for a PG-13 theatrical release and then release it genuinely uncut for the home media market.

It's an anthology of found footage horror films. Came back from the premiere which had the directors and producers. It was alright but the very first film they showed was AWESOME. AS HELL. Particularly because of this actress:

Who looked like this in the short:

Really legit, scary performance. Along with fantastic directing and great makeup. I wish the WHOLE movie would've been about that. That was easily a 9/10, easy. The rest was "meh" 7/10. Based on the strength of that one film alone, I give it an 8.

Re: Three Movies Loglines

So it is.

If anyone's interested, this is TECH:

An ensemble cast of tech support reps try to survive abusive customers and wild in-house antics, meanwhile a vengeful customer is en route to find and destroy the call center!

These are two actors at the top of my head who can play the two main characters:

Hoodie - Jessie Eisenberg

Indian - Aziz Ansari

http://imageshack.us/a/img716/9762/azizansari.jpg

An extra one: New Guy - Cal Robertson (He's too old now but he would've been perfect for the part)

I'm also thinking of changing a couple of the names cause "Indian" and "Obese" may come off as racist or rude.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I'm pretty sure that everyone thanked Kenny's post just for the 8 bit version of Call Me Maybe.

Good luck Kenny just let me know when I have to fly over for the filming.

Be sure to prep up, I need more gay vampires for this film!

And thanks for the support everyone. It's a step forward but i'm still waiting to see if there are gonna be any takers. Good thing i've been working on more material, like buying more tickets to the lottery. I also submitted the script for a review on a script reader's blog, preparing myself for the worst but hoping for the best.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I hope to hell it gets made. Reading the script a ways back, it felt like just the kind of movie I'd want to go see in theaters. Really want to see how it would end up somewhere other than my mind's eye.
I don't often read scripts, but in the few cases that I have, it's for movies I haven't seen yet. And when I finally get around to seeing the actual movie, it's always really interesting to see how things look and change in the final product compared to how I pictured them.

I remember you were one of my early supporters and gave it a rave review during your harsh cynical review period. That was a great sign, cause since then I have not heard a really bad thing about the script though I did get alot of pointers on how to make it better. Even my screenwriting co-worker thought it was incredibly well-written which came as a shock to me. And there are still more revisions come, i'm gonna focus the eighth draft on making it more visual especially on the organization's backstory, bringing Angel in the story earlier and thensome.

My worst fear is that it'll come out of my hands and they'll get Marky Fucking Mark to play Revolver or whatever. I don't care if the damn thing makes a +100 million, I don't want that to happen at all. I'm real adamant in directing it myself but I have to prove that i'm worthy to the task, so in the forthcoming months i'll probably be posting short movies.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

Sounds promising as hell.
So who would you have playing Revolver if you could pick anyone?

Had a Revolver since day one. DEUX was a short film before and a guy I met in film class played the role in it. His performance was pretty much the basis of the character from there on, before Revolver was just a generic stock "smart ass" character.

I recently got into contact with him and he's incredibly stoked about reclaiming the part. He says he loves the script and is giving me input on line rewrites and other story revisions. He just needs to brush up on his acting which he hasn't done in awhile. But he IS Revolver, no question about it. Just like Michael J. Fox is Marty Mcfly, I shit you not.

But if for WHATEVER reason that cannot be arranged (and believe me, i'll be bummed out completely) the next go-to guy is gonna be Aaron Paul from Breaking Bad.

http://i.imgur.com/IhDMh.jpg

Riku mentioned him ages ago. It wasn't until I started watching Breaking Bad that I realized he's my backup Revolver. The way he speaks and acts is almost perfect! His agent needs to get ahold of the script but i'm holding off on that still, cause the other guy is more fitting.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I think Shogun's gonna be your biggest problem casting-wise. Who the fuck is gonna be able to pull off being an arrogant, cocky cunt one minute, then turn around and be some frightened paranoid fool the next (and actually make it LEGIT ?)

Revolver's character can be played by most (in spite of any "perfect castings" you have), but Shogun's defo gonna be difficult. Likewise with Rev's handler. Don't let her be a smokin hottie with glasses, she's gotta be ugly, coz in Rev's situation, you'd have to do a lot of explainin as to why he doesn't just bang the shit out of her.

I'm gonna have to get Christoph Waltz to play Shogun. That motherfucka can play anyone.

In all seriousness, i'm gonna need to change Shogun a bit more cause he's too similar to Revolver anyway. And being a complete paranoid bastard from the start would kill some of the tension (seriously where's the threat in a guy who constantly shit his pants?) I'm thinking of integrating more of his paranoid nature in his opening dialogue so it would make sense he'd go full blown paranoid in the next scene to motivate Revolver to stop fucking around, then regress back to being determined to kill Revolver. But even in the beginning, he still needs to be imposing. It's a real delicate balance. I'm sure I can find an actor who can pull that off.

As for Angel, the best I can do is make her "plain" cause no actress is gonna want to play an ugly girl, let's be honest here. Unless they're looking to get an Oscar which there is no chance with this movie. No studio exec would want that either cause sex appeal sells. But now that i'm integrating her more, the pressure will probably be to make her the love interest. I'm completely against forced romance but if I have to make it happen, then it has to be convincing.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

Jesus Christ, why do people just stand there?
Fucking ridiculous. I don't pretend to be some kind of particularly fight-capable badass or anything, but nothing would have stopped me from pulling that psycho off and planting a fist in his face.
Seeing people just stand by like that while someone obviously incapable of helping himself is being attacked... that's just sad.
You'd like to think that people are willing to stand up for eachother when it really becomes necessary, but a video like that just makes that idea seem a little too optimistic. The worst people in that video are the ones that just backed up and let it happen.

I do agree with that. It's a weird social psychological thing. Basically, people would help but they sometimes assume other people with more initiative would go out and do the deed for them. But as a consequence, everyone in the room is thinking the same thing.

This is the most notorious case of that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Kitty_Genovese

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I paid taxes and earned this. When I was working I only made 3G a year. I don't care who doesn't like it. I went through hell to get it. We went through hell. Getting this was no easy task. It was 2 years of daily hell fighting the courts and those weekly trips to WFS and this hit they gave us. I don;t care what you guys think of me posting that and even if you get angry. I earned it as much if not more so then when I did work. Also news flash millions of people in the US disabled old and young doing the same thing. They all earned every penny. The money isn't just given. It's earned and a great chunk of that is based on the taxes & SS taxes I PAID when working,so I am just getting the money back I paid. So no I won't be quiet. I have no reason to. It's no different than retirement.

And no one is disputing the fact why you should earn it in the first place. I just find it odd that the person who said that above was once the same person who said this below:

What I earn and how much I have is no ones business.(why do you make topics wanting to know personal info about people?)

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

And you should be, I don't mind reading what you intend to do.

Though in my opinion, me being a notoriously private person when it comes to personal affairs other than creative stuff, I think it's best to keep it at a minimum. Gloating about amounts and things like that tends to be worrysome if I do it (openly on a public forum unregistered people can read, no less), I always worry about people breaking in knowing full well what I have if I show it off so I don't. But that's my personal take on it.

As for the VP debates, i'm not. I'll probably just wait for the "highlights" videos to come springing up from my youtube subscriptions.

Re: Four Movie Loglines (Kenny Movie Updates Topic)

Juggling a couple of projects but the biggest thing I decided to do in DEUX (after watching a couple of clips from WANTED and listening to NIN's Everyday is Exactly the Same, which I love) is make a more prominent bad guy.

My original intention was to make the DEUX games on a national scale. But instead for the first film, i'll play it off as a chapter (under the ruse as the main operation) run by a solitary man who upholds the "dignity" of the original games, terrorizing the Angels into being as meticulous as possible to make sure their contestants don't get out of line. And the Angel who lets Machine Gun Bastard run about gets shot in the head (and properly cleaned off the face of the earth), to be made an example out of.

Once this new villain is killed or arrested, the DEUX chapter disintegrates and is made public. It's thought that this is the end of DEUX...until its found and revealed by Angel post credits that there are actually many more chapters and the DEUX coalition, on a national level, has not been shut down. In fact, they want everyone involved in that chapter dead and buried. Setting the stage for the sequel.

I decided to do this cause Shogun, as antagonistic as he seems, isn't the real badguy. He's just a pawn in the first movie and will eventually form a reluctant alliance with Revolver to fend off the Coalition's forces in the sequel.

The biggest issue is being able to integrate this new addition in the script (I think its very well paced already) but I think I can make it work.

Re: Gaming thoughts of the day

So if the game's method of interaction is so broken to the point where it induces extreme migraines or impossible to use, you'd still play it?

Cause old school Resident Evil and Shenmue, they may not have the most fluid controls but they're bearable. So therefore they're playable. Shit like Superman 64 literally gave me massive headaches playing it, rendering its playability useless. Anything else like motion games or the new wave avant garde stuff really depends on how they make their game interactive.

Don't really side with Mittz saying its factual or OL saying its completely subjective, its all consensus with me. And if a majority says its downright unplayable, then its downright unplayable. If its split down the middle or teeter-tottering, then it's all up for grabs at that point.
