Movies and Books

Another post, another day late.

So last week I talked about the movie I was going to see a way independant film. Well its exatically what I expected it to be when I told you guys about it. The only issue that I had is that half way through the cheesy teen movie the projector broke down. I hear that Louis is getting 50 percent compensation... wich is good... the investment might help him produce a new film...

The one thing this experience confirmed for me is that; No, you cannot make a teen movie with a small budget.

That being said, I had a good week. I first and formost picked up a cupple of books. I purchased a coppy of "How to shoot a feature film for under 10000, and not go to jail" and "Silent Bob Speaks" and "Digital filmmaking for teens". I only read the first one, so far... but I am in the middle of the second one... both of wich I love so much. Hopefully they help me make a bigger and better film.

I also spent most of my paycheque on movies this week... This should be a fun week for movies. On my list this week;

Saved!
In Good Company
Anchorman
Clerks X
Freddy Got Fingered
The Motorcycle Diaries
American Pie 2

All but one of these movies are comedies... guess wich one it is.

The last thing I want to talk about at this point is the introduction for my script. I wrote a great (and telling) introduction to my film. Now those of us who will get to read the script will know a lot more about the person who wrote the script. For the rest of you... I may or may not post that... I don't know yet. You may need to wait for my commentary in the DVD (I am TOTALLY making a DVD).

Next week I will actually tell people about the movie (since I realised that we never talked about the movie itself).
