So it's 4 am on a Saturday morning and what am I doing? Right, writingfor this blog. Why? Because I am at work. You heard me right. They are shooting nights and I am stuc at the office and, ironically enough, I have to be thankful for being here and not outside where it's cold and nasty. This coffee did wonders for me. Anyway, where were we?
Last night I was at the office as well. And amongst other things, I watched " Madagascar" cause, let's face it, I cannot solve any problems that pertain to my activity - production- from the office at 2 am. Maybe I was debilitated by this week's change of schedule but I freaking enjoyed this little film for kids. Maybe all this says is that night shi(f)ts reduce my brain to the capacity of that of a pre-schooler. Moving along now. I hate entertaining this kind of thoughts.
The feature is about 4 friends from the New York zoo( Bronx???)that get thrown in the middle of the jungle in the aftermath of an attempted escape to the wild ( Connecticut) by the zebra character. So the zebra, the lion,the hippo and the hypochondriac giraffe, who was my favourite, are sent from the New York zoo, where they were some sort of stars, to Kenya, ona ship that is hijacked by the psychotic penguins from the same zoo. So they end up on the island of Madagascar, where they meet the raver, techno pumpers and, I believe, magic mushroom lovers, the lemurs and their rather useless king, Julien. The main conflict stems from the fact that Marty wants to be free but Alex, the lion, his best friend, wants to stay in the limelight and the pampered life that the zoo has to offer. In the end, Alex becomes something he's not prepared to be, that is, a carnivore.

lazy
This has not been updated in 3 months.
So guess what? Am working on a new film that I think has great potential to be released and distributed and maybe actually get some festival awards. It all depends how the editing will be as the shot footage is just amazing. It's called, um I don't think I can reveal that but it's about radioactivity and mafia. Anyway, I am working even longer hours than the previous gig and this has been the first full weekend I had off.
What do you think I did today? Went shopping. Well, did not do shopping but I looked for a bit. Enter tights/stockings store where I basically mentally acquired at least 70 % of its merchandise. Then went to see a movie and crazily enough, I enjoyed it despite a gang of morons who were talking loudly behind me and my roommate and pushing agains our chairs repeatedly.
We went to see " Wedding Crashers." Not the most emotionally fulfilling cinema piece but amusing enough to counteract the depression taking over me at this point on a Sunday afternoon. Owen Wilson was raaaaaaaaugh throughout the whole film because I fancy weird noses and blond guys. Ask my boyfriend! Putting that aside, the one-liners were catching and the wedding extravagantza just lifted up the spirits in the theatre. Since I long dreamed of being a wedding crasher for the sake of free food and entertainment, this film was positive encouragement to me.
The plot goes like that: John and Jeremy, best friends, associates, bachelors and partners in crime are expert at crashing weddings, having the sole purpose of getting laid with eager bridesmaids or sexy unmarried cousins. They don't discriminate based on religion or ethnicity and their enthusiasm convinces even the old aunt who knows everyone that they are part of the family " uncle Ned's kids." They are so charming that is very hard for the public to dislike them or even disaprove of their behavior.
The turning point comes at the biggest wedding of the season, tresurer Charney's daughter's wedding, where the two blokes meet the other rich sisters. The whack-job crazy one goes after Vaughn's character, Jeremy, and the down-to-earth chick ( Rachel McAdams) goes after Owen's and the entire wedding turns into a struggle of the two men. John is trying to get the girl and Jeremy wants to run away from Gloria who behaves like a straight-out-of-boarding school clingy woman.
Just got tired. Will continue
