Honking your horn in front of a house because your too lazy to get out of your car and knock on the fucking door, is one of them.

If I had my own country, I'd make it a crime to have bad taste. But then I'd have to keep my fondness for George Michael, Air Supply, and Pauly Shore a secret. But worth it...you know, for the greater good.

deaths too good for those people. I'd make littering and graffiti instant death too.

Just as I start work, you guys are going to lunch. I ask you - does that seem fair?

I miss Ed. His girlfriend is back in town and I fear that I won't see him much again, as he'll be at her house all the time, busy gettin 'er done.

I really want a cheese and tomato sandwich and a cup of coffee.
(Tue Sep 26, 2000 - 11:49:26 am)

Queenie:
Grilled cheese?
(Tue Sep 26, 2000 - 11:49:39 am)

Sleepy:
That would be good, with fries. Healthy stuff. Otherwise just plain pasty cheese and tomato.

Grilled cheese and tomato is Sidney's favorite sandwich.

Wax, we decided to enter that contest! They posted the official rules, which are quite lengthy, but if we won we would each get about $70,000. The good thing about it is that we can pull out at any time, so we can continue to persue other avenues as well. The first elimination round would leave 250 people remaining, at which time we'd all have to make short bio videos. The promoters would pick the 30 most entertaining and photogenic of that group and move them into the next elimination round. Then the remaining 30 would be given $3000 worth of gear and would have to shoot one scene from their film. The best three of those would move up. Then the promoter would pick the winner, who would then win a bunch of money and start shooting their film with a budget of one million dollars. Can't beat that!

Although I think it sucks that they choose the final thirty according to who's the prettiest. But I understand, since they'll be making a thirteen episode tv show about that person. All finalists will be subject to rigorous background checks too.

Seems like there's nothing to lose. Excellent.

My tomatoes have given up I think. They won't ripen anymore.

Queenie:
Well, I'm a little worried about creative control. The website says, "You'll be paid to direct" and I hope they really mean that. If we were to, say, make it through the first elimination round and I found out at that point that I would NOT be able to use the cast and crew I have in mind, or shoot in Portland, then I might consider pulling out. But then again, is it better to compromise yourself slightly to have the opportunity to make a film with a million dollars and guaranteed distribution, or hold out and make a lower quality, uncompromised film on a shoestring budget that may or may not get picked up for distribution?

I'm not so sure that our movie is Miramax's cup of tea. But then again, they've put out some weird shit in their time. We will continue to push for getting our own money and making it on our own all along too, and if we have another opportunity, we'll pull out of the contest. We'll have six months, after all.

In response to the post before, obviously.

Sigh. Cushca got in first.

I think I'll work Decoy's Lounge into every movie I ever make, sort of like the way Gus Van Sant always has Tom Peterson in every movie.

Problem is that you need special, expensive equipment to film screens, or else you get that jumpy thing going on. I watched a movie last night called OFFICE KILLER in which they tweaked the horizontal of the TV in every shot it was in to try and disguise the fact that they couldn't afford the twitch-free equipment.
