One Hot Burrito!

It is late. I am battling the insomnia, but I must chime in (if belatedly):

Alan Ruck!

That is all.

Strawberry disappointment.

Car-centric things bore me.

You say that now, but wait till you see The Fast and the Furious. Genuis on a stick.

Battlestart Galatica, marshall law. Cause? Coffee. Or non-supply thereof.

A dribble more of casting news: Alan Ruck in da house. Or da car. Or something.

This is an elaborate SPEED joke waiting to happen, isn't it? Which means it's also possibly an elaborate Joss Whedon joke...

All is well that ends in pizza.

Cannonball Run was a cheesy star-studded remake of The Gumball Rally.

Not that I didn't like the cheese at the time, but the original has a bit more style.

I just hope DRIVE follows the ROBOT CHICKEN homage to TCR and Headless Ponch wins the race.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I can't tell you how much it's like "Cannonball Run" as I've never actually seen "Cannonball Run." Nor had I seen an episode of "The Amazng Race" until we'd finished developing "Drive." (I've seen the seasons that are on DVD now and love it.) Never saw "Gumball Rally" either. Car-centric things bore me.

But have you seen Death Race 2000

If I only had a brain...

Can those of you who have worked on-set explain something to me?

Whenever somebody's trying to say the minimally polite thing about another act-being, it's "He/she always hits his/her mark." I understand that the mark is the place you have to be so that the camera is focused properly and everything that's supposed to be in the shot is there. Two questions:

  • Are there many working film/video actors who *can't* hit a mark?
  • How do you do it without looking at the floor? Excellent peripheral vision?

I bet the inexperienced ones have problems, and there will always be those who "improvise".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How do you do it without looking at the floor? Excellent peripheral vision?

Practise the scene in question until you don't need to look at the floor?
