Just messing around in photoshop with a photo from a shoot I did a while back with a friend of mine. Kinda liked how it turned out.

Late summer sunset in downtown Red Deer.

Well what I thought it was, can't be it, since HL2 came out 9 years ago, not 6.

So I have no clue what Teague's talking about.

So me and Saniss have chatted, and I'm conceding Jimmy as well, so Saniss can grab him.

So Eddie, looks like it's down to you and me for Charli. You want us to throw you some voice samples Aural?

I'd be happy to concede Austin right now, I don't have the time for that big a role right now anyway.

I'll read the story and see which of Charli or Jimmy I'm more interested in.

Maybe me and ol' Saniss will have to do an old fashioned trial by stone or something.

I'll be in touch.

Well, not full auditions obviously. But if 2 people want the same thing, maybe do a quick sample for each and pick the one best suited.

Just a thought, all for the project and all that.

And now in the final installment of movies BDA got paid to watch.

http://content8.flixster.com/movie/11/17/08/11170882_800.jpg

Dear Frankie. (2004)

Gerard Butler gets hired by a woman to pretend to be her deaf sons father for a day. Yeah, pretty much what it sounds like, drama with a splash of romance.

This one was part of an Edmonton Film Festival event. It's...alright.

I kinda missed the first 15-20 minutes because the (heavy) scottish accents echoing off every damn building in downtown edmonton made it near impossible to understand. Luckily almost nothing happens in first 20 minutes. Unfortunately, almost nothing happens in the first 20 minutes. Once Gerard Butler shows up things get moving pretty quick and it keeps a decent pace until the end.

I do have to give some credit for a shot near the end, of Gerard and the Mom outside thier apartment. It holds on the 2 of them, nearly motionless (I got a little worried the DVD had stopped playing for a second...kinda an inverse DIF Attack of The Clones if you will) staring at each other for a soild 45 seconds as they slowly lean and kiss. It's was really nice to see someone just hold on a shot like that and trust the actors to carry it.

But on the whole I wouldn't call it anything to write home about, always nice to see Gerard playing the most awesome dad ever though...even if it does just deepen the fantasy that one day Gerard Butler can be my dad too, but eh, whattya gonna do?

Epic (2013)

Another one by Blue Sky studio, (Ice Age, Robots, Horton Hears A Who and Rio). I should say up front the first Ice Age is still among my top 5 animated movies, and Robots is in my top 10. And Horton and Rio are both really quite good. But Epic is just not up there.

The way I've been describing it to people is not as good as Ice Age or Robots, but not nearly as horrible as the Ice Age sequels. It's good, but I think it falls into a lot of the tropes of the hidden fantasy universe thing, with the war and good vs evil and the crazy scientist dad. It all felt very familiar without really adding much to the ideas.

Now, that being said, it did everything it was trying to do very very well, the world is beautiful, the art direction and design is amazing, and the story connects together and the emotions are all there. But I've seen this story before. It's Fern Gully and Avatar crossbred with Spiderwick Chronicles. And unlike Avatar it didn't give me the... excuse me....epic... world that would have carried it through that wholesale.

But at the end of the day, that really is nitpicking. I did enjoy it, there's definitely some really great moments, Christoph Waltz KIIIIIILLLS it as the villian (no surprise), and all in all I fell into the wonder of it all and I really can't help myself falling in love with universes like this.

So take that for what you will.

Also...why is it called Epic?! It seems like a really arrogant title to throw on your movie...let alone THIS movie. (also, you really wanna be affliated with Epic Movie?).
