Bond Theme Composer Barry Dead at 77


Five-time Oscar winning composer John Barry passed away Sunday in New York. Barry, who wrote the now famous James Bond theme, had a heart attack. He was 77.
Hollywood Reporter reports:

Barry, originally from Yorkshire, England, penned some of the most iconic movie soundtracks of the last forty years, among them Midnight Cowboy, Dances With Wolves, Out of Africa and Born Free, for which he won Oscars. But he will be most remembered for his long relationship with the Bond franchise, where he was responsible for the soundtrack to 11 Bond movies including Goldfinger, From Russia With love and You Only Live Twice.

Be my Star Trek Girl?

Well, i just dig this up from Youtube. A girl singing she wants te be your Star Trek Girl. Personally, i only watched a few episodes of Enterprise and a few minutes of the old ones. I didn't really like it, it was watchable and i can understand why it was such a hype back then, supported by all them nerdies.

But then you have to be a Star Wars Fan? yelled the unsubconscious braincell still swimming in a lava pool of alcohol. No, i am not. I enjoyed the films, that's it. But but.... what are you then?? I'm quite fond of Stargate, that's what i am. Still not a fan, but whenever it's on, i watch. I loved Atlantis with it's awesome characters. Really like it. And that's everything with a Star in it, alright? Oh right, Starcraft...

Oh yes, and Ray William Johnson appears too.

Con Air 2?

In a recent interview, director/producer Simon West expressed his interest in making a sequel to the nineties blockbuster Con Air. West, who directed Con Air (as well as ‘Tomb Raider’, ‘The General’s Daughter’ and the upcoming ‘The Mechanic’), will be working with Nicholas Cage again in a new Action-Thriller The Medallion and must have felt nostalgic, because he had this to say..

“I’d like to do Con Air 2. It’d be great. It’s a matter of getting everybody together. There’s so many people involved and it’s about getting everybody to agree. But I’m going to bring it up to Nic. I’m going to put a bug in his ear about it. If the two of us want to do it, we’ll go after the others.”
Its not anything near a confirmation, but knowing Nick Cage and how he likes to be in every film ever, I’d say he’ll jump on this. If it does actually go anywhere, I cant see any of the original cast coming back (John Cusack and the like), unless theres a fantastic script and Bruckheimer comes back too.
I think the original is a fantastic film, one of the good action flicks of my youth, and I completely welcome the possibilty of another one. Anyone else excited/unhappy about this?

Good evening gentle ladies and gentlemen
As you might have noticed i have changed the background. I am still sad that Leslie Nielsen deceased, but we have to move on. But we shall never forget his great personality and the many laughs he gave us while we we're children, adolescents and adults. Rest In Piece, Frank Drebin and Mr.President.

As for the background, i have no idea right now what to choose. Post your ideas!

NOW Let's talk about the main topic here. The picture above is a shot from my shortfilm "Rifle And Revolver", a true homage to the spaghetti western genre, mixed with a Tarantino sauce and a Sergio Leone alike story as the good delicious cheese. Buon appetito!

This movie didn't cost me alot because the costumes we're selfmade. But right now i'm thinking about my next one and my friends asked to do a maffia film. First, i said no. A maffia film in the thirties are too expensive( Cars, weapons) but i moved it to the nineties. 1991 to be precisely, the death of communism.

So let me write out my script( that is in my head atm): The story starts with two gentlemen who kidnapped a member. One's a journalist, the other is a member of a NY family. Now, they had to hide under in Belgium because they killed the son of the maffia boss head Andropov. Andropov was an ex-KGB officer and wants to find the killers. The fall of the communism stills hurts him( He had alot of good connections with the governments and now he lost them all) He's quite frustrated but he's still a true nationalist of the now deceased Soviet Union. But back to the two gentlemen. The journalist is on drugs all the time hallucinating, seeing evil things and rambling out words. sometimes, he's useful and even sober. And the rest of the time he spits out quotes,  and he just spits out.(Based on Raoul Duke) He mentally lives in the sixties and only loves that kind of music. The other one is a harsh man who only trust his homemade alcoholic drink.(still have to work out his personality) They are hiding in a big villa, with the nephew of the boss running the business. The newphew flamboyant and a true playboy.(some ladies are always around him and you might see some "action") But the boys brought a kidnapped man to his house and trouble is coming for our playboy...

I'm reading a paper on mafia and communism, researching all the possibilities. And i still have to write the script. Our plans is to film this summer and we need a budget of 250€. Now, some of you started blogging just for fun, others for the money. I have chosen for both goals. It is my goal to deliver news and earning a little bit of pocket money with it. But it's not really turning out well. Adsense is slow but i will soon hit the limit of the first payment. but that's where YOU join in. 

If you could help us and give a donation(50 cents or one dollar would be FANTASTIC) then you will receive an honorary thanks in the credits. If you live in Belgium, you may even join get a role and drink some beers with us! :D  If you give 5 dollars/10 dollars I will give the url of your blog a permanent place on my blog. And there's still the possibility of clicking on my site, you know , those sweet little images you like to ignore. *BIGHUGESUBTLEWINK*
