ICONS!

Wheeeee!

I have more icons. Sooooo excellent.

Now they aren't all moody and angry ones, too. (Except for Gambit. He was smarmy.)

Today is going decently, though slowly. I have so much to do here at work. SO MUCH! Let me tell you.

The constant headache is not helping too much.

Ah well, I'll get over it.

Entertainment-y thingies.

I am so easily distracted today. (So many icons...)

Anyway. Here is the trailer for The Punisher. I'm not sure how I feel about it. There is more potential there than I thought there would be but I'm not sure how much that is saying. Florida looks all wrong for this.

If you didn't see it yesterday I found that there is another episode of Teen Titans in November and the second season is being produced right now.

Marvel had its conference call and there was a lot of movie talk -
- Iron Man is targeted to be a PG-13 release and on target for a ’05 release.
- Elektra, which is in current development, will be the “sequel” to Daredevil, with the character first appearing there, and then be reunited with Daredevil in Daredevil 2.
- Marvel is “feverishly” working on Fantastic Four with Fox, and that the studio has it on it's schedule for December 2004.
- Namor is in active development.
- X-Men 3 is in development, but neither Marvel or Fox is willing to tentetively put it on the schedule yet, for either 05 or 06 release.
- Captain America is in discussion with top writers and directors, now that litigation surrounding the character has been resolved

Joel Silver is talking about Wonder Woman all over the place in press junkets for the Matrix. He says he's up for doing it more serial style and doing more than one at a time.

Shrek 2 and Troy's trailers are debuting tonight on Access Hollywood and Entertainment Tonight respectively. Keep an eye out for them.

There are tons of crazy, crazy rumors out there right now. One that has no basis to it at the moment is the Hugh Jackman as Bond role. He hasn't heard anything about it as of yet, so... I'm not sure why everyone is in such a hurry to replace Brosnan.

Tomorrow is the Matrix Revolutions. I'm going in with low expectations. I'm hoping to be impressed.

Icon mania

So. Now I have 18 icons and I found one for Mike.

I need more. There aren't any good BatClan icons out there.

Meh.

That was random...

So... In high school I lived across the street from this kid named Dave. Dave was a good kid. His dad was not so great and there were lots of issues there. I did what I could to help him from time to time and lost track of him - mostly - when I went to college.

If any of you have ever heard me talk about Dave-O or Link and his incessant beeping or the quest to beat Final Fantasy ... 2? That was all with him.

Anyway... I get back from my meeting and find that I have voicemail. One of them is from Cody - nothing strange there. The other is from Dave. I /never/ would have guessed who he was from his voice. He sounds all grown up. So weird.

Dave is living in Wisconsin. He got my cellphone number from my mother and my sister. I have no idea how he got that number.

So... Ummmm. Yeah. That's weird.

Some book things...

Legends II: New Short Novels by the Masters of Modern Fantasy come out in the end of December. There are stories from Robin Hobb, George R.R. Martin, Orson Scott Card, Diane Gabaldon, Robert Silverberg, Tad Williams, Anne McCaffery, Raymond E. Feist, Elizabeth Haydon, Neil Gaiman and Terry Brooks. There is, now, only on author on that list who I haven't read.

I must fix that.

Oh. An those who hate Robert Jordan will have more fuel for the fire. His newest release is going to be a prequel - finishing the story from the first Legends collection about how Lan and Moiraine got together. I will read it. Addictions are addictions.

I need to get Exile's Valor.
