So, my buddy Henry at Crooked Lake Productions is hosting a film contest.

The rules are one shot, one plot. He got 16 valid entries, including mine entitled Death Be Not Kind.

Compared to all the rest, mine is short and simple, but I think it tells a lifetime’s worth of story both before and after it.

Now, if you could go to http://crookedlp.com/news/ , read all 16 entries, think about which one you like the best, then vote for mine at the bottom of the page!!!

The winner’s story will be made into a short film.

Thanks!

P.S. Vote for me!!

FISTS REPRESENT!!

A lot of buzz has surrounded the Christian Bale freakout over the past couple weeks.

It has become something of an internet sensation, as well as a regular media sensation as well.  This last sunday Family Guy even had a segment based around it where they had a single shot of a reel-to-reel tape recorder playing a huge portion of the rant as Peter Griffin responded like the fury was directed at him.  Good stuff that.

But the on-set freakout is nothing new.  And, in fact, there are some classic on-set freakouts that were even caught on video.

So here we go with my three favorite Hollywood meltdowns (well, 5 really, but 1 is a follow up to the first, and another is just another freakout on the same set with a different screamer.

You’ve already heard about Joaquin’s appearance last night on Letterman.  If not, watch it now.

But here he is in Vegas, this taken just last week.  You can see Mr. Affleck filming his documentary.

If you have no idea what I am talking about, catch up, dammit!  (and this link has a reference to the famous Crispin Glover appearance on Letterman years ago)

From the makers of Ong Bak comes a special-needs girl… with a special need… to kick some ass.

This is officially the coolest movie coming out in the next month.

Yeah, it’s 13:+ minutes long, but I promise your money back to anyone that doesn’t think it’s 13 minutes well spent.

Awesomeness.

People, I smell Oscars

One of the Shat’s less-known roles, Incubus was filmed entirely in the constructed “auxiliary language,” Esperanto.  Here’s a 35 second clip–

This is surprisingly well done.
