Where's your mood sig?

I got rid of my sig a while ago because I just wasn't in the mood for any mood sig and the Fanboys one didn't seem appropriate at the time. So I'm moodless right now. Let's hope we can get a link to that script soon.

Your posts look so... naked.

domesticelefant · 05 May 07 :: 15:01

Wow, that website looks pretty cool. The movie still reminds me a lot of Arrac Attack, or whatever was that movie's name, can't remember. I didn't like it at all but I think I am going to like this movie here a lot. I wanna read the script too!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 06 May 07 :: 20:21

Wanted everyone to be able to get a look at this very cool poster...

Deb

domesticelefant · 06 May 07 :: 20:22

Yeah, I like it too.

TeeJay · 12 May 07 :: 16:22

Also, here's the link to Kyle Rankin's other project, Hell Holes, which is kinda cool. I think the guy starring in it is Kyle himself:
http://www.newbornpix.com/HH_home.htm (Not sure if this is PG-13, though. There some blood and icky stuff in it.)

If Infestation is as quirky as this, it's gonna be great.

Deb, if you wanna contact these guys, why not contact Kyle Rankin himself along with it: http://www.newbornpix.com (kyle@newbornpix.com) There's more Hell Holes stuff here: http://www.atomfilms.com/film/hellholes.jsp The bloopers and the commentary are really cool.

Oh, and this is totally random, but that tagline on the poster makes me think of the Monty Python sketch with the bad Hungarian dictionaries. Because next to John Cleese's line "My hovercraft is full of eels," he also says, "I am not longer infected." This won't make any sense if you don't know the sketch, it's just that I recently saw it and it's one of my Flying Circus favorites.

Best mood sig, I've ever seen! Way to go, TeeJay! I knew there was a purpose for that pic. LOL!

The guy in Hell Holes is an actor though, not Rankin himself. His name is in the credits. Can't remember it right now though. The guy who plays the professor is Ray Wise, one of my favorite character actors in the world. And he was also one of the producers of the Hell Holes too. Very cool! I hope he's in Infestation. I wrote a part for that guy in one of my scripts once --- a crazy cult leader.

Yeah, he's in the credits. But it is Rankin himself. The guy was named Guy.

He sure had a hard time getting his lines right for a professional actor. Seen the bloopers?

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 May 07 :: 19:35

Oh, OK. No, I haven't seen the bloopers. I'll check them out later. I don't feel so great right now. Had a terrible dream right before I woke up and now I've got a headache. Also, my eyes are gummy as hell. I was crying hysterically in this dream and I wonder if I cried in my sleep too. Weird. I feel like I was in an emotional train-wreck.

I'm trying to sort myself out though. I'm sure this will pass.

Okay, if there will be no Fanboys in near future, I will at least look forward to this movie. I just decided so.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 May 07 :: 23:14

I'm already really jazzed about it. Mainly because the production is big enough that it won't just disappear. And they can't cut him out of it if he's the lead.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 May 07 :: 20:27

Here's a cute write-up:

domesticelefant · 15 May 07 :: 20:02

LOL, yeah, that's kinda cute.

And I proudly announce, I have installed my new laptop and it's not officially named COOPER.

TeeJay · 22 May 07 :: 21:09

Inspired by Michael Welch's official website, I thought I'd give you guys a map to see where Chris will be shooting Infestation. According to our information, it's Sofia, Bulgaria. And this is where it is when you look at the big picture:

And this is it in more detail:

Hope Chris has a safe trip and that the shoot will be fun.

And when you look at Germany on that map, I live right near Cologne and Anne not too far from Stuttgart. Just FYI.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 May 07 :: 21:34

Cool!

domesticelefant · 22 May 07 :: 21:36

Nice maps.

OhGnarly · 22 May 07 :: 21:37

I don't know if I could handle a plane ride that long....yikes. I don't envy him for that. I'd love to see Bulgaria, though.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 May 07 :: 21:39

Maybe he'll have some long layovers so he won't be stuck on a plane all that time.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 24 May 07 :: 04:47

BON VOYAGE Chris! Here's hoping he has a smooth trip over to Sofia and that he enjoys his time there.

domesticelefant · 24 May 07 :: 09:26

Oh yeah, today is the day ... Have a safe trip!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 24 May 07 :: 19:27

Wow, there's 17 flights from LA to Sofia today. That's a very popular destination, it seems. All of them arrive tomorrow. And all of them have a layover somwhere. Looooong trip.

domesticelefant · 25 May 07 :: 18:48

Well, it is a long trip. I mean, it's even a different time zone than Germany.

TeeJay · 25 May 07 :: 23:44

I can report that Chris made it there safe and sound, it appears. How do I know that? Kyle Rankin (director of Infestation) answered our e-mail. Read for yourselves:

Hey Tina,

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond. Thanks for your interest in Infestation. Yes, we're shooting in Sofia, Bulgaria -- first day of our shoot is Tuesday -- Chris is here & doing very well. Rounding out the cast will also be Brooke Nevin (Sara), Ray Wise (Ethan, Cooper's dad), and Kinsey Packard (Cindy) to name a few.

I couldn't be more excited to be working with Chris. I feel he's a truly gifted artist -- wise beyond his years & blessed with great instincts (not to mention funny & extremely watchable). I believe we'll have a lot of fun bringing this film to life!

All my best,

Kyle

As funny coincidences go, I believe Tisha said Chris was flying out on May 24, that was Thursday. We had a dinner that evening with some of the guys we work with on the new trial I will be working on, and I was sitting next to a marketing director who was originally from ... <drumroll> Sofia, Bulgaria!
