Tonight I watched the wicked intense Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Quarters- Montreal at Boston. 2-1 in the second overtime. Sweet shit. I don't think I've sworn that much in front of my mother. She got wicked into it too and she never watches hockey. Stayed up for the whole thing with me and my mom is like everyone else's mom- she'll fall asleep 10 minutes into a friggin' movie. The game wrapped up nicely enough right when Moses parted the Red Sea in The Ten Commandments over on Channel 5.
Speaking of, as far as that new HD print goes, brilliant. I think I'm starting to fall for Blu-ray. It makes those Technicolor pictures LOOK how Technicolor actually looks. Also in school I'm learning how to author one and I'm blown away how much they can store. Oh PS3, drop in price soon. Or let me have a surprisingly prosperous summer.
That being said, I still miss 2 VHS sets. Long movies should have appropriate home movie breaks. Pausing is so awkward and I've always felt that way. Plus it feels more like an event- taking out one tape and putting in another. I'm also looking at you, Laserdiscs and CEDs. You know how I'm a sucker for flipping discs.
I started writing a treatment to the second installment of Slip Conway after watching a great triple feature of detective movies- Chinatown (1977), The Thin Man (1934) and Soylent Green (1973). These characters are getting more developed and the stories are getting more ambitious. It's wicked exciting like when I started doing Clifford Gritts videos but times ten.
Hopefully most if not all of the post-production for Slip will be done by the end of the week. I can't believe I'm leaving the friggin' country next week. Still so much to do.
