So, my script has several characters. But most are minimal. So minimal, it almost doesn't matter who plays them. There are FOUR who are really important. A central character and three very structurally important and not easy to cast side characters. Good news is 2/4 slots are pretty much filled. I'll work on the last two when I know more about rolling. Plus, I don't want to have to ship people a ton to where I'll be filming. That costs money. So, I'll stick to what I have now and worry about the rest later. I'll say more when it feels right to do so. I don't want to throw out the few interesting things I have right away and then have nothing for a long time (that's the main issue).
I got the free tickets to watch 15 minutes of James Cameron's Avatar in IMAX this Friday that the studio is showing. They want to build the hype. Now that I have had my expectations lowered thanks to people's comic con reaction, I am really looking forward to it. But Avatar has its work cut out for it if it wants to stand with Moon and District 9 in this year's sci-fi field. That being said... James Cameron gave us Terminator, Aliens, and the Abyss. Bring it on!
After that, we will prolly jump over a screen to see Inglourius Basterds. QT rocks my socks every time. Couple in Brad Pitt playing a crazy Tennessean, I'm there. FYI, Tarantino was born in Knoxville. Hence all the East TN references in all his films.
I'm probably going to check District 9 out again tomorrow. Thoughts on remakes and piracy are two things in the pipe. Probably do one tomorrow.
