Vampire Shark Screenplay
I've tried to write movies in the past but haven't been able to. My friend Jeff and I have been working on a possible Ahab Van Helsing Vs the Nosferatu Carcharodon screen play. Last Wednesday he called me and said that he had come up with an outline for the first act. I went over to his place and found out what I was missing.
A giant board on the wall to make me look like a crazy person.
Being in a Movie
Not only was I writing a movie last week, I also go to be in one!
A couple months ago my friend Christian, or Little C, to be honest I am not sure what his name is, messaged me and asked if he could use my vampire shark comic in a movie he was making. I asked, "You're not going to rip it up or shit on it are you?" He claimed no so I said ok.
On Saturday I head to Jays to meet him and the shoot. I pulls a contract out and tells me that I need to sign this so he can us my comic, I didn't read it so maybe he owns my house.
My part in the movie was to be a Jays Employee who has to say how great a comic it was. A real stretch for me! Because I sold 15 in 1 day!!!!
He promised to send me a link of the movie when it's done so I will share it once I have it.
Predator
I was so excited for the Predator. I have to make sure you understand something; Predator, the original is one of my all time favorite movies! It's a classic and will go down in history as the Iliad or the Odyssey. 2000 years from now people will be in school studying the Predator!
It has a high bar to live up to and got pretty worried when I started hearing feedback from people that had seen it.
"I was a little disappointed," Will.
"I saw it...it's...ok," Rommel
I was going in hoping it'd be fun but started worrying it would just be a train-wreck. The movie starts and I have to be honest, the first hour or so I had a blast. I was laughing really hard and got in impressed when the Predator did Predator things. I though to myself, what is everyone problem? This movie is a sexual Tyrannosaurus!
And then about the half way point I started having less fun. I thought to myself, "Why are they doing that?" or "If that was his plan why did he do this?"
It's a fun movie, if you like watching the Predator kill people then you're set but once you start thinking about it it falls apart.
Also, I think Schwarzenegger really hurt his pride. Each movie the heroes get progressively weaker looking. The next Predator movie it'll just be kicking babies until it's asked to leave the Day Care Center.

Now that I think about it, that kind of happened. Huh
