Woohoo! Update numero uno was every bit as fun to read as I was hoping it'd be! Man, that sounds like a blast. I'm green with envy. I bet JC has a pretty rad toy collection.


Does he smoke the herbs or haven't you guys gotten to the joint sharing stage yet? I bet he smokes....

He made a specific point of saying he doesn't work in the mornings.
But he smokes cigarettes constantly.

Or maybe he just likes to sleep in. Lord knows if I was a successful director like him I'd never get out of bed before noon, and I almost never drink:p

Fair enough. I shall endeavor not to speculate into or allow myself to succumb to rumor. I officially and legally renounce all sinister innuendo and/or slanderous remarks, expressed or implied.

That should keep me clean, right?

Met with him again today.

God I love him. This could turn dark very quickly...

Oooo so before we see the Damned we could see the real life story of Carpenter's stalker!?

in the immortal words of PJ Soles' Linda Van Der Klok, "totally":D

So we've been working with Mr XXXXXXX of the last couple of days and it's still a blast. We're becoming friendlier each day. The rest is probably a bore to all of you. Just reading the script aloud and figuring out what works and what doesn't. We're hitting a particularly weak spot in the script, so much tuning will be required. We got to discussing our weekend plans and when I asked him what he was getting up to he says "four words for you...God of War II"

So he's a gamer.

Sounds like a hell of a movie and you're having quite a time writing it. Good to see somebody who's really having fun with their work still.

Yeah, I'd go check that film out even if you weren't involved in it. Sounds rad.

Todd Browning was a genius that was underappreciated in his day. That being said, it really sounds like you picked up on all the best themes from the classic horror genre. It looks like it will be really great. :)

This is off-subject, but out of curiousity, where did you learn to write screenplays? Did you go to film school?
