Oh hey, I didn't see you there! Well while I have your attention, remember that independent film my buddies made? You know, the won that won Best Short at the Nevada Film Festival? Yeah, the one I always plug and sing the praises of? Well here's the long-awaited trailer for it. :)
It even has a quick shot of myself in it at the 15 second mark... I'm in the blue shirt just left of center. ;)
My apologies for not being around much, I've been struggling with a few things lately. But yes, it's 2010 now and hopefully it holds as much promise as 2009 seemed to. :P
I don't have much to really write here, I've mainly just been writing novel-length daily journal entries about nothing. But I figure I'll at least acknowledge the new year, and my decent beginning to it...
Yesterday morning I went up to the store to spend two gift cards I'd received, one for $30, the other for $10. I picked up a few movies and my total was $51.98, so I handed the cashier the $30 card and she scanned it and axed it, then I handed her the $10 one and she scanned it, and then handed it and my reciept to me saying that I have $18.02 left on it... To which I sputtered out in disbelief a thank you and have a nice day... So yes, I'm hoping all of 2010 works out this nicely! :)
I'll close with a few random recommendations and such that I've been into lately:
Movies: Chasing Amy - Yes, I bought Kevin Smith's ace rom-com again, but on Blu-ray and it still pulls my heart strings District 9 - A brilliant movie, beautiful cinematography, amazing acting and a great story Iron Man - Come on, It's awesome, especially on Blu-ray Inglourious Basterds - Quentin Tarantino's newest masterpiece. Perfect casting, perfect performances and overall great movie Donnie Darko - a fucked up movie, but sooooooo good! The Hangover - A gift from the Greek God of humor, yes, Hystericules himself. Ok, not really, but it's a blast. Road House - The late, great Patrick Swayze as a yoga-doing, country livin', super bad-ass... So basically himself, IF he was a bouncer/cooler at a bar... He rips a dude's throat out for crying out loud! And finally: (500) Days of Summer - Great romantic comedy, hit pretty close to home with me, but still a wonderful film. It also helps that I have a little crush on Zooey Deschanel, who is married to the vocalist/writer of Death Cab For Cutie who does the opening video in this post, Ben Gibbard. They really are a super adorable couple. :)
To me, it's always seemed that friendships and relationships just end in tears and heartbreak.
I end up throwing my heart so far ahead into things that by the time the rest of my body (and senses) catch up, it's too late.
