Vampire Sluts

I find this rather hilarious and on the nose! I read Dracula last semester for my Vampires and Popular Culture Class and we discussed this at length. Vampirism and it's evolving metaphors.

The Litmus Test

So here it is, I was on the fence about Torchwood USA. With the UK version in limbo (seriously where are they gonna go?) and stateside versions usually sucking (ie the new skins trailer and the new being human cast) Torchwood USA didn't really seem like it would be any good. That is until this little tibit of casting news hit the inter net and VOILA! Colour me interested!



So here's the sitch, they pick Gjokaj i'm in for the party, he's got torchwood written all over him and has some serious talent. They pick CMM and they obviously have no tastes and are going for the easy hottie to attract viewer, and that is just not a show I am interested in.

Only time will tell

Yes Please!

Morena Baccarin to star as Wasp in Avengers movie?

While not my favorite Whedonite, I will take anything at this point!

Steampunk

A week ago I didn't know this was a thing. Now I'm obsessed!





Now I learn the SyFy (seriously, why did they do this? They didn't need a name change) has picked up the web series "Riese". I'm into it! It's like a whose who (B version) of the channels stars.
Now all I need to do is somehow get the SyFy channel!

Recent Work

So here is some pro bono stuff I've been working on!

Project Cross Match from Rachelle Hamilton on Vimeo.

For the Unite in the Fight non profit AE and I did this promo for one of their fundraisers. I'm actually really happy at how it turned out considering we shot it in two days and Final cut crashed on me and I had to use imovie (yes imovie) to chop and crop the whole thing together!




And this little number is for the Restaurant le Riverains annual breast Cancer fundraiser, which I again have the honour of taking part in. Great resto, even greater cause!

New HP7 Posters

The Hunt Begins *chills*

Thank you baby Jesus!

Nothing but good news coming out of Warner Bros concerning HP7. Plans for a 3D conversion have been scrapped due to time constraints. I am very happy with this news. 2D to 3D conversions are hideous. It only sucks because that's why they pushed it back in the first place. originally it was supposed to premier this past summer but was postponed to make the conversion. The article reference Clash of the Titans as an example of bad 3D conversion and I agree. If your not gonna shot it in 3D don't bother converting it. It just wastes time and looks like balls.

*Sigh*

I totally used to ship these too on Firefly. Yes I know the age difference is creepy but for some reason I think they would have fit. Now I can't even watch Chuck cause he just looks old and it makes me miss Jayne too much.

Anna Trov on the Olivia/Fauxliva dilemma

"And Torv said she sort of missed playing the more repressed version of Olivia, as opposed to two versions who are both more open and emotional. She likes the role-reversal of having a woman be more cool and emotionally contained, while the two male leads constantly stand around the laboratory — which is basically like their kitchen — talking about their feelings and how they stand with each other. "I think so often, you have the guys that are the quiet, slient type, who do the tough stuff. And you have the girls who are working out and chatting and talking about their relationships," said Torv. "Fringe turns that on its head." Perversely, she found playing a more repressed character quite liberating."

Here's to a good season boys!

Don't want to get too excited seeing as that's a bad idea, cause they tend to be pretty unpredictable, but hopefully a lot like last season, but with more winning.

Music

After 3 years of being in these guys, I so glad to hear that they are finally on the up! I was lucky enough to experience their "Gentlemen on the Road" tour, and I have to say that they are both gentlemen and extremely amazing live. Lucky for me I already have tickets to their next show in MTL, hope this time the crowd is better (not jokes we got sussshed at the last show, the crowd was balls) and a better opening band (coma inducing music to kill your children to) cause they bring enough awesomeness that it should follow them around as well.
