In case you haven't seen it already, and since he asked us all to spread the word so nicely...Joss Whedon's new thing. Watch it now before it goes away.

I haven't disappeared completely. I just don't use this journal much at the moment. If you want to know how I am and what I'm up to, you'll just have to talk to me!

I use facebook a lot, so that's a good place to find me, although I'm trying to cut down on my time on there too.

Reviews & Interview [May. 2nd, 2008|11:19 am]
JvM review from MJ Simpson: http://www.mjsimpson.co.uk/reviews/jesusvsthemessiah.html

"This is a thought-provoking film but it’s far from heavy. There’s a bit of action, plenty of tension and vein of dark humour running through the whole thing, best exemplified by probably the greatest walrus scene in the history of British cinema."

"This is also a beautiful film"

"Technically and artistically a triumph"

---------------------------------

Also an interesting take on the movie from the USA: http://www.roguecinema.com/article1331.html

And, most excitingly, an interview with Alan here: http://www.mjsimpson.co.uk/interviews/alanronald.html

Wow. Gremlins.



It makes me sad in a way. But I suppose they weren't doing much other work. It's nice to see some new Gremlin footage at least. Boy I love them.

Alan just pointed out that we've made Jesus a pinup. LOL. We've got some amazing comments from strangers in reply to the review. It's so weird and cool hearing people discuss the characters and stuff like they're almost real.

Jesus Vs The Messiah [Mar. 21st, 2008|02:52 pm]
You probably already know and are sick of being told, but our feature film (1hr 38mins) is available to buy online for a mere $6/£3.

Some people have been concerned about putting their credit card details into the site, but they've reassured us it goes through authorize.net [EDIT: I said .com originally, but it's .net], which is allegedly as safe as paypal or amazon.

If you've been on another planet and don't know, my partner Alan wrote and directed it, and I produced it as well as script supervising etc (and we both have cameos) We made it with just 5 of us on the crew, £350 to cover petrol etc, one camera and one mic. See my previous post for the 40-minute 'making of'.

We're really excited about it being available to the world, and are sending it to people for reviews at the moment. Let us know if you watch and enjoy or hate it, and plz tell your friends!

[keeping me happy |The Answer]

Friday night we went to a party and I made friends with a cat and a 4 year old girl who gave me an imaginary necklace. It was pink and very pretty, and I'm still wearing it.

Christmas Eve I woke up feeling wretched, having finally succumbed to one of the many viruses that everyone have been swapping. Christmas was a bit of a haze because of this, but many lovely presents were exchanged and good food consumed and suchlike. I finally opened my Lordi package from my new friend from [info]holiday_wishes and was amazed at the quantity and variety of the contents! Including a lovely long letter with drawings and an anecdote about Lordi's mum. It is all so very cool and I'm still quite excited about it!

Boxing Day meant I needed to head to the hospital to see a doctor, after waking everyone up the night before with a big scream, since I was dreaming I couldn't breathe. It was only after I screamed then apologised that wendy heard how wheezy I was and made me have my inhaler. And Al spent the night trying to calm me down because I was breathing so fast. So the doctor gave me 3 days of steroids, and I'm feeling much better physically, but totally bad mentally. I have big starey eyes and feel depressed and anxious and angry at the same time. Only one more day of them though...I can ride it out.

I have such a fragile system, so easily unbalanced.

How easily I'm sent mad.

I've just been looking through my friend Charlotte's photos, and I have realised what is missing from my life. Randomness and spontaneity, and doing things just because they're fun. She is much like I used to be, and dresses up just for fun, and is odd just because it's fun to be that way, and does things to get reactions because it's interesting.

I have become dull in my old age. When was the last time I dressed up just for the fun of it? I can't remember. And I have lots of silly photos, but I don't show them to anyone. Trying to set up a business and worrying about money has made me more restrained, more aware of what people think of me. You know what? I don't care. I never cared before, I was far more free-spirited, and why should I let the madness of the world become more important than my own madness? Because it is all madness, these rules and regulations and laws that some people created. The 'normal' way to dress and behave. Who is to say they know more than us? They usually don't.

Alan is very into dada (if you don't know what that is, I can't explain it, read about it a little), and although I don't love ALL the weirdness that he loves the way he loves it, I love other kinds of weirdness, and I should embrace them more, even if everyone thinks I'm mad, then that's just perfect. Perhaps then I won't feel as creatively blocked either. Who knows.

I wanted to do something different next year...I thought perhaps a video project or something, but perhaps this should be my project. I don't mean going out my way to be weird, just being more childlike and doing things just because I enjoy them, which I don't do much anymore, and doing things just because they're new and exciting and fun...all the things I used to do, the way I used to be, but better, because now I know what it's like NOT to be like that, I will enjoy it all the more.

Anyone want to play with me?

I'm really curious as to people's thoughts on this post. Positive or negative, don't know what the hell I'm talking about, think I'm silly. Give me a quick comment please?

(oh, and I passed my Spanish course) :)

Very funny. I have in the past committed an act of treason by doing #23; every pregnant woman should be aware of #17 and have the most possible fun with the it; and #6... Alan, never carry a bow & arrow in York!

I might do some things to raise money for this charity next year. Good idea?
