Twilight Shooting Script

Michael, I know you're reading this, I just want to thank you for sending it to me. 

I was told not to give too many spoilers away due to privacy of this script. But here we go...


It starts off very promising and very easy to understand for those who never read the books (I read them...), Michael agrees that as the script progesses it loses it's easy flow and becomes a complicated mess of cryptic dialogue, that only those who know the book will understand. The chemistry between Bella and Edward is certainly faster paced than the book, which prolonged a lot of it and it added to the literary tension. But since this is a movie, I understand, the intense dream sequences make up for it. The characters of James, Laurent, and Victoria are introduced early on in the film to add suspense in between all the romance and such. The scene at the Cullen residence is definitely a whole lot different, we do not see Edward at the piano, we do not see the Family history tapestry...which is interesting because all of these play important roles in New Moon...which was recently confirmed for 2010. The Cullen siblings, other than Alice and Edward, are not given much to do. Which is interesting because in the novel, we get a taste of their special skills and they do speak a lot. Jasper and Emmett have about 4 lines in the films entirety. 

Sorry Michael, I love you buddy, BUT I'm sure on screen everything kicks ass. Because damn does that added sequence at the end really add to the suspense. 

That's about it. 


Hope you're all feeling a little teased. 

My Illustrious Wasteland Review

Saw the show twice: opening night and the 2nd performance. 

With a mix of glam rock and Broadway showtune this show is part musical theatre part rock show. Tod Kimbro took almost a decade to concoct this monstrous musical, costing nearly $30,000 to produce and boy is worthy of an Off-Broadway run. 7 of the songs come straight off of Tod's solo album 'Soundtrack to a Chemical Spill'.
This Distopian musical shows us what Earth will be like in the future: human brains are implanted with "Bio PCs" and history lessons in school consist of learning which celebrities were best dressed in People Magazine and what movie won the Academy for Best Picture. We meet Mogs, son of dead rock legend Lucifer Itch, his mom Loretta is addicted to anti-depressants since the world was declared officially depressed. The President Reverend MD was elected via online voting (this process was voted for through online voting, ironically enough).

We are introduced to Realists (the futures activist group that are against Bio PCs), and there's a disease known as Information Disease which has many symptoms and Mogs comes down with it.

Following so far? I hope so. The show, like the disease, is FULL of information but damn does it really add to the awesomeness. 

The cast is energetic and while some vocalists are weaker than others, their acting makes up for it. 


Hopefully this show makes it way to NYC...and soon. 


The show is very reminiscent of Repo! The Genetic Opera...another show I love!


Twilight.

Michael Welch (Mike Newton), of the Twilight film emailed me about 15-20 minutes ago. Attached, was the official script for the film. 

No, you're not getting it. 


Review to come soon. 


Damn it's beautiful.

Sex, Drugs, Rock n Roll, and of course Dancing...

Summer 2008 is not the best thing since sliced bread. 
It has been a crazy mix of emotions. Many friendships lost and many overly dramatic happenings. 

8 shows back to back and I am so sick of not having time to myself.

So I planned another Silent Rave.

AUGUST 1st, 2008
LOCH HAVEN PARK
7:05PM - Midnight.
Bring your iPods, mp3 players, CD players, and of course your friends. 

These events are only as fun as you make them. So come on out and have fun.

Dress up, dress down, come in costume, or in your birthday suit and enjoy a night of dancing to your own tunes!

Glowsticks, glitter bombs, and confetti.
PLUR Kids, and Free Hugs Brigades are welcome!

Orlando isn't paradise.

I'm back home in Orlando and I sort of wish I wasn't. 

It all started on the wrong foot...My flight was delayed by 4 hours. 

My parents told me that I'm "too old for a vacation," and that I need to get a job to save up money while I'm home if I want to remain in New York. 

I'm gonna get all angry here and I could give two shits. Honestly, they have no idea what I went through in New York City. I went through hell and stressed myself out so bad that I lost all control of myself academically, physically and emotionally. 

I have been yelled out and criticized everyday since I've been home. 

Basically, Fringe week is my only week of freedom.

You know what I have to say about that? 

FUCK YOU.

It's been a while

I apologize for not posting as often as I used to.

I saw Glory Days on April 26th and good god was it awful. It was 90 minutes, no intermission of horrendous story and monotonous pop music. The story: 4 guys meeting up for the first time since they graduated high school, now in the summer before sophomore year of college they want to make themselves known to the school they went to. They want to stand up to the jocks, and be cool. So they decide to time the sprinklers to turn on during the huge football game the night after they meet. A shocking secret tears them apart.

Hello...you're out of high school...What a lame idea. And...the shocking secret was a boy coming out. 
Glory Days closed opening night. 

I just saw Saved! The Musical this evening. Hilarious. The movie is still better, but the musical is so funny. The music is great and the acting is so full of emotion and so pure. I will be seeing it again tomorrow night. 

---

In other news, the end of the school year has arrived. I will be home in 5 days. Scary. I have so much to do. But I am so ready to come home. I mean, I love New York City, but there's only so much I can handle.

A lot has been going through my mind lately, some things are kind of scaring me. Oh and so the grand total of boys who turned me down this semester...4. Hooray!


I ended up going to my schools end of the year formal, Boat Dance. We cruise on a boat for 3 hours and dance and party and drink. Not so fun. Granted, I was intoxicated, but still not fun. 


I've been listening to Next to Normal a lot lately and it's bringing up all the emotions I felt when I saw the show. Emotions I haven't felt in a very long time and it's making me vulnerable enough to grow feelings for people because I feel needy. Which is a terrible thing.

Damn you.
