I read it, because its a diary it wasn't as easy to get into as I hoped, but it was a great companion to the Rose Red miniseries (which is a pretty good haunted house tale, IMO).

Supēsu Kobura aka Space Cobra aka Space Adventure Cobra Episode V: "Nazo Kyōteki Sunaipā wa?" or "Mystery! Who is the Fearsome Sniper?" Episode VI: "Majutsushi no Shōtai!!" or "The Magician's Identity!" Episode VII: "Jiēn no Ada!" or "Jane's Revenge!" When last we left our Space Adventurer, Cobra had just freed the second daughter of Captain Nelson, Catherine, from her imprisonment. However, they are immediately set upon by a sniper who Cobra cannot get a bead on with the Psychogun, so proceeds to have to bravely run away. Who could it possible be? Not what you want to find behind you in a dark alley The plot is zipping along on the path to Nelson's treasure, and why Bowie is going to be a pain for Cobra is shown. Lady gets a nice fight sequence, even if she doesn't end up being presented as badass as she was in her intro. Big question:

I hate to be 'that guy', I really do... ...but I'm going to embrace my inner 'that guy' and thus be 'that guy'. Stephen King wrote the screenplay for Rose Red. It wasn't based on a King novel, but an original concept (like Sleepwalkers or Storm of the Century). It originated as a film with Stephen Spielberg, but Spielberg and King disagreed on the direction of the story. Eventually King bought back the rights to the story treatment and developed it as a screenplay for a TV miniseries, as his work was finding success in that format. There was a tie-in novel to the miniseries released called The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red, however it wasn't written by King, but by Ridley Pearson (and released under the name of Joyce Reardon, the parapsychologist from the Rose Red miniseries). It purported to be Reardon's edit collection of Ellen Rimbauer's diaries and was, itself, the basis for the sequel miniseries to Rose Red, called The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer.

Just watched Soylent Green. It's set in 2022, so with the new year upon us, I thought I'd get a peek at what is in store for us. If the movie is anything to go by, we're in for more mask wearing and supply chain issues.

I remember Sky Doll, but it's been awhile. Pity it got waterlogged.

Most of the people working on new Star Trek in interviews talk of their love of Star Wars. I think Chabon is the exception. I've recently started watching the 1st season of DISCOVERY.

THE GREEN KNIGHT for me. Visually arresting and a solid adaption of the source material, imo.

I'd be curious to know where he got these numbers. I'm not an expert, but numbers I've seen online indicate the Pound (15 shillings is .75 of a pound) was worth about $4.35 in ~1850, which means Cratchit was being paid about $3.26 a week, or in a 40 hr work week 8 cents an hour or $169.52 a year. He probably was working more than 40hrs in a week though... Anyhow, that means Cratchit was being paid about $130.40 a week in today's dollars, or about $3.26/hr in a 40 hr work week (or $6,780.80/yr).

J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay worked on STAR TREK BEYOND, not INTO DARKNESS, and as I understand it had been script doctors for years, primarily. Other cause for concern besides parting with the Tolkein advisor is that Amazon apparently required extensive reshoots after the pilot was done as they changed their mind on a number of things.

It's probably going to be fairly likely all productions will opt to have this position, as the consultant is supposed to make sure the actors and crew are all on the same page with what is being done and what is being filmed.

Spending more time on something I'm not enjoying doesn't seem like winning to me.

I've quit. I may come back to it, but I hate the platform game level design that has just ramped up in the castle section. I'm finding the up-down, get blown around level design to not really be fun, worse than the last level. I took a few days off to see if a fresh take improved my feelings, but it didn't.

Hey! I might resemble those remarks...!

Oooh, I forgot the Bluray for Future Boy Conan was to come out this month. Will have to track down. Will be trying to catch up on Cobra, so may be able to add Conan too.
