Excited actor...

"I am very concerned about our national heritage, and I am very concerned that the films that I watched when I was young and the films that I watched throughout my life are preserved, so that my children can see them."
George Lucas on the colorization of B&W films but not the bastardization of his.

I'm really, REALLY looking forward to going to the cinema over the next coupla months. There's a lot of great-looking movies coming out;
Hitch-Hikers Guide To The Galaxy - one of my fav books (a trilogy in 5 parts!) and looking to be a fab film.
Charlie And The Chocolate Factory - Johnny Depp + Tim Burton = Coolness.
Batman Begins - Christian Bale as Batman, how can it be bad?
Serenity - If you never watched Firefly, go buy the DVD box set at once!
Fantastic Four - cos i love comic books and the trailer looks relly fun.
And, of course, Revenge of the Sith - even though Mr. Lucas has kicked me in the balls twice now the trailer has still got me excited. Please don't let me down, George!

Yup! I love the cinema!

I've done a little movie work in my time, before I got snobbish and decided to stick to theatre. Nothing big and certainly nothing anyone would have seen (Pasty Faces, anyone? - i wasn't even credited) Oh, and a few commercials.
I guess I'm a long way from that Oscar.

On my life; All is going well, Calima and I are still flat-hunting (we saw a really grubby one the other day) and my love-life remains quiet but comfortable. I'm interviewing directors for Little Shop of Horrors next week and i've been relaxing for the last few days and watching lots of DVDs.

Oh. Went to Tryptich at the Tron last night and got very, very drunk and laughed a lot at one of the bands who were all so drunk they couldn't play a whole song - the bassist dropped his guitar at one point!

Weather is still nice - Glasgow is lovely in the spring!

byeee.
