      That last Adam Sandler movie I liked -- and that I thought he was giving a lot of effort -- was the first half of Funny People. Bedtime Stories, I thought, was OK for what it wanted to be.

      I did this last year,it was fun. Helped me get going on a second novel.

  4. So...Chat on Friday? What time you ask? I dunno. Daylight savings has once again saved us nothing, so I leave it to those of you who work full time to suggest a time.

      Dan was in the last one actually. He just needs notice. I'll send him a message.

      I hope to drop in whilst watching the footie! I miss you guys!

  12. Anyone working on Looking for Alaska? Just applied to work crew on it since it's filming in Michigan.

    1. adlocke

      adlocke

      How did you go about applying to work on the crew? House of Cards shoots where I live and they mostly post something in the paper for extras, then you show up dressed all fancy for an audition among thousands of hopefuls. It'd be nice to explore moving around cords on set or do whatever crew does, but I'm curious if there's a more secretive way to become more involved in that kind of process.

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Michigan's film office has a webpage that offers crew hiring and cast hiring.

      Also, high off the heels of Mad Max, I think pitching a Just Cause movie makes sense.

      Also the Deadwood pilot does a formidable job of establishing place, tone and character.

      @Pompalompa, did you see they released a remastered version of Adagio In D Minor from Sunshine a couple years back? It's incredible.

      Still waiting for KILLING ON CARNIVAL ROW. Easy to picture on the big screen.

      KOCR is about to become a TV show. Iron Jack probably will be one of those legendary specs that everyone loved, but no one could make.

    4. DarkCity

      DarkCity

      American Games is about Richard Jewell and the 1996 bombing at the Olympics. Leonardo DiCaprio is producing and Jonah Hill is staring. Problem is, no one has taken up the role of Jewell's lawyer, which needs to be a Matthew McConaughey type.
