once again completely lacking energy from these long days and short nights- obsession the the early morning World Cup games is not helping. Univision- the spanish language channel is definitely the best place to watch. The spanish commentary is so energetic that it is worth hearing even if you can't understand what they're saying...
3 days later...
Well, strangely enough right after I was looking on the SIFF website I got off work and right outside was Linas Phillips,the director of "Walking to Werner" which I totally want to see. He was filming the spastic Real Change guy with the long gray beard (not to be confused with "White Beard Man" Mike, the great Real Change guy who is out front of Elliott Bay Books daily from 9-2-ish, he's wonderful). We chatted for a second, then I wanderd off, and wandered back to meet Carrie (who totally saved me from falling down the stairs to Elliott Bay Cafe while walking backward trying to figure out where the guy with the camera had run off to. Anyhow, that movie plays tonight at the Neptune- but getting from Pioneer Square to the U-District in a half-hour seems totally impossible... might try, though. Love Werner!
Capt. Underpants if going well, extremely fun- a whole day of filming out in Gasworks park was like being at Disneyland (minus the rides, entrance fee, and well- everything Disney, actually.) The HUGE red robot looks great on film amidst the colorful pipes and aging machinery inthe pavillion. We also used Koji's blown-up face with Dav's blown-up arms duct-taped to me for a few scenes, which is totally surreal and hilarious. Hope it keeps going at a good pace...
On another Disney note:
while watching the "Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest" preview Johnny Depp says "Bugger" -isn't that the Australian equivalent of "fuck" "like bugger off!" soo...
will they have to censor it in australia to maintain a PG rating?
