NorWesCon

The room party... Woooo.

So. I have no DJ. This is a disappointment but in a way makes things a bit more simple. I don't think that I'll be able to find anyone else and it gives me one less thing to flip out about if things go badly for what ever reason, right? Sure.

I have alcohol but the real question is how much should I have? I know I'm going to need to buy more than I have right now (along with mixers and such but that can be closer to the day of...) but... I really have no idea how much it should be. Any guesses?

Ummmmm. If anyone has any folding card talbe like deals that I can borrow, that would be awesome. If not, I can cope. I'm thinking minimalist is probably how things will go but I will need something for a bar. (Though I've seen plenty of parties pour drinks in the bathroom - if only to keep people from making a huge mess in there.)

So.. ideas and stuff welcome.

There will be a birthday bowling post later today, I think. (Remember... 24th!)

All the news that's.. well.. not really news...

Zach Braff will earn about $350,000 dollars an episode for the 2007-2008 season of Scrubs. It hasn't officially been picke dup for another season but it looks pretty likely.

Hellboy 2: The Golden Army is finally getting underway. Del Toro is just leaving for Budapest, and Ron Perlman is getting in shape for the film’s start date, which is now set for the end of May.

According to IESB.net, Warner Bros. is looking to McG to get The Losers, going. Hrmmmm. Well. Charlie's Angels wasn't too bad...

Oded Fehr is not returning as Ardeth Bay for the Mummy 3. It is rumored Jet Li is going to be the bad guy in that. And Rob Cohen is directing. ..... The more and more I hear about this, really, the less awesome it sounds.

The Wonder Woman movie is now, pretty much, in development hell. Go Hollywood, go! Joel Silver has stated he's not even looking for a writer or director at the moment, so unless someone with a lot of drive and a clear vision steps up... Development hell is where it will stay for awhile.

Paradise Lost (Yes. The one by Milton.) is on the way to becoming a movie. I hadn't talked about it before because... well... Seriously. I never thought it would get anywhere. But now, we're starting to hear casting ideas thrown around and there was a New York Times article on it. So.... who would YOU cast as Lucifer?

Toby Macguire is talking about hanging up the Spidey costume again. Hard to tell if it is serious, if he's looking for more money again or what. I think there will be more Spidey after this. The real question, though, is Sam Raimi coming back?

Another NorWesCon note

Reg before the 10th. It goes up in price after that.

If you're going, that is.

I promised....

... and here they are. My India pics.

Now, you see, I captioned them all but they don't seem to be there now. So... If you have questions about something... Gimme a picture number and I'll go looking and let you know. I don't have the energy to do it again.
