or horrified? Not sure. Too soon to tell. But nightrunner42 , you got your wish. There will be a film about Ren. faires. And it stars Jack Black. And Cary Elwes is in it. And Lindsay Lohan. Yeah. I guess we'll see next spring.

Amurified? Horrimused? Something.

I think Horrimused is the easier one to say and covers it.

Prepare yourself NOW for smartasses throwing lines from the movie at you while you're in character. For years, if the flick's successful. At least for this season if it's not. It will be like unto a plague not seen since the Deppification of Pirates.

Kee-rist, if I see ONE more DAMNED 14 year old boy staggering around like a drunken Broadway pansy, that's it...I'll be forced into accounting school.

Here's hoping they're filming in New Orleans, and they need storyboards;)

Yeah, I've really had it with the Johnny Depp-a-thon that has been a huge part of faire over the last few years. Tre irritating and a bit sad.

But if you end up working on the film at all, I would certainly go see it since there would be some stunning imagery :)

Heh, I think you're giving me too much credit on how what I do gets into these things.

Storyboards are mostly visual reference points to show cam angles & beats of an exchange. The imagery is the director & the DP & the set guys.

Unless you were playing with me;)

Certainly wasn't playing. :)

If your boards are truly amazing, I would think those DP, Set and director folks would really try to create what you create for them.

That... so.... what is that cast?! Ann-Margaret????

Yeah, very weird casting. Again, really not sure what to think about this whole thing. Could be a train wreck. Could be a train wreck we can't take our eyes off of. Who knows?

Tempting to go see it in full garb, just for kicks...
