So apparently I have been in the dark or under a freakin rock or something.... I was totally caught unaware when Em informed me about the movie Across The Universe, which is a musical set to nothing but music from The Beatles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111one one
Yes, that does really excite me that much. And on top of it all, it looks like the storyline is going to be a really good one to boot. I think I could be just fine with a worthless storyline, so long as there is a sh*t ton of music from The Beatles.
I also read someplace while I was searching for information about the movie, that they tried to use some of the more obscure stuff from The Beatles. This means that the entire movie is going to be a wonderful trip through music that isn't just what everyone knows! I will get to exercise my brain, calling the album and track name on these more obscure songs... I think this will be an amazingly awesome experience.
All my little plans and schemes, lost like some forgotten dreams.

film making...
... In case you don't remember, or never saw that post... I would love to make a film. Get in to the whole 'film making' deal.
Well, I was having trouble getting my butt in gear writing an actual movie script. I am a bit put off by the thought of just playing around, and I have this internal desire to do something amazing. So I was at a bit of a stalled state.
Well, I was recently introduced to the Bad Hellogoodbye (thank you very much Em) and fell in love with the song Here (In Your Arms). Yes, I know, where have I been? The answer is easy, under a rock somewhere... at least musically speaking that is.
I don't know if you have seen the music video for this song, but it is not exactly a great one. Now, admittedly, had my first experience with this song have been viewing the video, I would likely not have much problem with it. It is a good video in it;s concept and execution, however, having listened to that specific track probably close to 100 times over the course of the three days I owned the CD before viewing said video, I had already constructed a music video of my own in my head... when this failed to match reality, I was let down, so to speak.
So I set out to put my idea on paper, and three pages of pencil scratchings later, I then brought all of that into the computer and I now have a completed script! My first ever, and the only person who has read it loves it. My next step is to begin storyboarding it and then placing the storyboards into a video in time with the music so that it is easier to visualize.
Heidi thinks that we should make it ourselves and youtube it... I have to say that I am pretty strongly considering it. All we need at this point is the equipment and people to play the band members, and a girl... oh yeah, and an immensely large field of flowers...
