Hiya, I am bored and haven't seen any new movies besides the two I wrote about early in the week. Although I am excited about some dvd's I bought today. Evy DVD at Warringah Mall is closing down and offering MASS discounts. Got 4 awesome films for $40-.
Silence of the Lambs - a perfect film. It rubs the lotion into the skin. LOL
Dark Crystal - still one of the best films ever made - gets me every time. Apparently they are looking at remaking it into a CGI fest. Can they pull it off and make it as good - I doubt it.
Labyrinth - scared the crap out of me when I was younger but came as a double feature with Dark Crystal so am giving it another shot because most people I know love it.
The Basketball Diaries - Leonardo is a GOD and this film is totally brilliant and sad story of a poet and talented young man who becomes a junkie. AWESOME performances all round.
So I have some fun viewing this weekend and if you haven't seen them I thoroughly recommend you do!!!
And just to give this blog some oomph - some of my photography that I do as a hobby.
Yes orders for prints on canvas excepted. Hahahahahaha
This one's of a blue wildflower (no technical term forthcoming) after some rare rain at the base of Ayers Rock
This is an annoying dragonfly that I spent close to an hour harassing
This is just one angry grasshopper from my backyard
This guy wanted to eat me
Anyways - have a great weekend.

I have to ask...did you REALLY take these photos??
If you did...MAN!..you have a career ahead of you as a photographer!
If not, better be quick to put the photo credits in, or risk spending your future in debtor's court!
cheers

BTW, I love The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth! I loved that whole time period and genre of movies. There was this golden period where dark, magical movies were being made like those two as well as Legend, The Secret of Nymh, etc.
The idea of remaking The Dark Crystal sounds painful to me. The original was a masterpiece, in my estimation, and should be left alone!

There was another film made around this time that I just loved - it has probably dated so much by now and a good remake would do this film justice. I think it was called Krull and this guy had a pet panther and a weird colorful killing boomerang or something similar. Just loved it. Was very dark.
I also have to put up some more pics.
And it will be interesting to see if they can do Dark Crystal 2 any justice. They are looking at reuniting the same cast and the story will commence where the last one finished.
Fingers crossed.

Your talking about Krull for the cool star boomerang and Beastmaster for the guy with the panther...2 guilty pleasures snuggled away on my DVD shelf.

Jason, I would say Krull is dated, but still guilty, campy fun! I hope you find it on Ebay!
