October Make it Happen

FANTASTIC MOON PIX

If I could request one thing from the media

this month, what, what, what ever shall it be?

Chan Marshall a.k.a Cat Power partnering up with El-Producto to make an R&B record, of course since its El-P and Cat Power, it won't exactly be R&B but their interpretation of what an R&B record could be through their powers combined, aligned, and cosigned.

Especially ill if:

. El-P restricts himself to only production duties, meaning no vocals, maybe a chorus or two, and some occasional shit talk never hurts.

. They tour for the project, meaning I get to see this amazing idea live.

. Its only a one time project.

. The project involves alter egos from both parties.

Each paired with their very own vivid assortment of idiosyncrasies, what could possibly go wrong?

September Make It Happen

If I could request one thing from the media

this month, what, what, what ever shall it be?

Whiteout. A film to be released Sept. 11, 2009. Starring Kate Beckinsale as a U.S. Marshall investigating a murder in Antarctica (yea, murders happen there too). Based on a graphic novel written by Greg Rucka and penciled by Steve Lieber. To be clear, it was written wonderfully by Rucka and penciled marvelously by Lieber. The graphic novel has no color, its in black and white, with maybe more white than black (reminder, it takes place in Antarctica).

Now, my request is that this film's trailer is exposed as a hoax and that the real film is not this thawed out tragedy of an adaptation. My request, is that the real Whiteout film is in fact in black and white, shot in the widest format of film, does not star Kate Beckinsale as Carrie Stetko (if Carrie looked like Kate Beckinsale she'd probably go into acting not federal law enforcement).
