    Is that Trajan I see as the typeface for the logo for yet another "contemplative action film"? Yes it is. #thewolfman

    Mrs. Overclock (a.k.a. Dr. Overclock, Medicine Woman) and I saw the trailer last night at MEN WHO STARE AT GOATS. It looks lavish and beautiful. #thewolfman

    @Chip Overclock: Yeah, the trailer's been out for a while now. I am not sure whether or not this will be a good movie. I'm a little skeptical. #thewolfman

    Intriguing how this is setup as a "test", and at the end of the trailer, there's Charlie Clouser's "Hello Zepp" theme as featured in the SAW movies. It has the same dramatic momentum as Clint Mansell's "Lux Aeterna", and relates well here. #thebox

    So, how long before we get a live action Power Puff Girls film, because I would be all over that. #micronauts

    I thought that was a normal occurrence on a Sunday morning after getting the shit beat out of you while vomiting on a Bobbie's shoes on Sat night (a friend of mine spent a couple of summers working as a bartender in London.) #doghouse

    In reply to JJ Abrams Gets Small For Micronauts Movie?
    Micronauts were pretty cool - and the mythology wasn't so obtrusive that it kept you from making up your own storylines. The interchangeable nature was the key: like Legos, you could always build something awesome that had nothing to do with the original toys' parts from which it was constructed. Everything had some kind of missile-launcher, too!

    In addition, the design was ahead of its' time for both characters and toys. When I recall these and the Corgi, Matchbox, and GI Joe stuff of the same era, it's easy to see why Kenner went to draw inspiration the Micronauts for its' Star Wars line. #micronauts

    I still have a magnetic Baron Karza, with his evil black magnet horse, whom he can merge with and become an evil black magnet centaur.

    That's the problem with kids today. Not enough magnet centaurs. #micronauts

    In reply to Roland Emmerich's 8 Rules For Ending The World
    They were interviewing him on German TV last night, interestingly enough he never was a big fan of sci-fi and actually preferred to read literature from the 19th and 20th centuries, such as Dostoyevsky. #2012

    When the Twilight Zone adapted this same story in 1986 they kept it simple. Their version was about poor people facing the moral dilemma of killing a random stranger for 200,000 dollars.

    The original short story went further and ended with the death of the husband...his wife didn't truly know him. #thebox

    Hmm, I haven't seen the movie (yet) but I'm getting the feeling this story would have been better if left at it's simplest. #thebox

    Meredith, when you were writing this, were you experiencing deja vu regarding your previously published Ronald Chevalier story? #2012
