Gosh, it's hot.

No AC is no fun. To escape the heat for a moment I will be going to see Moon again at the lovely Art Theatre, which is just a few blocks away.

A few people have been introduced to Observe & Report over the past few days and everyone has enjoyed it. Boom.

I finished the first draft of my current script today and I am pretty happy with it. It sits at 87 pages as of this second. I was able to get it printed out at a great price (no printer here). Now it is in a notebook with a few other things and is ready to be read. FYI - If you need something printed in Long Beach at a good price by nice people, go to Copyco on Bellflower.

How about what I am looking forward to in the next few weeks... District 9 is said to be flat out amazing. Can't wait as it continues the sci-fi rebirth I believe is happening. After Moon and D9, there is still James Cameron's Avatar to look forward to in December! Inglourius Basterds is Q Tarantino and I will always be there for his films on opening day (and it's supposed to be great). And Miyazaki has a new film coming out called Ponyo. He is a master of storytelling and animation. Definitely a great few weeks ahead movie wise.

I'll chime in tomorrow on some thoughts about box office takes and why it makes me sad. Yes, sounds exciting I know.

Looking forward to all those as well. Already got me a co-pilot for Inglorious Basterds (Owens). I am pretty excited for one I didn't see on your list... 9. 9.9.09. BOOM.
