Watched Willard at the weekend. Really good film. Enjoyed it immensly. Its about a lad and his rats. But there is slightly more to it than my description. It features Hollywood eccentric Crispin Glover. He was ace in Rivers Edge and obviously the Back To The Future Trilogy. He writes books and plays as well. The original Willard from 1971 was followed by a sequal called Ben, after one of the rats in the first story. Micheal Jackson allowed use of his song of the same title to be used in it. Crispin Glover recorded his own version of it for the 2003 Willard.
Crispin Glover has also released an album back in the 90's. Its pretty hard to get hold of and features some quite forced "whackiness" but it does feature Clowny Clown Clown and some other little gems.

BACK IN THE HABIT..........
Fo Sho.....
Look how cool I am and the cool people I hang around with.
Real life is shit. Car problems, financial problems, health problems, I got problems coming out my ears. My nose as well if I didn't have this damn lurgy.
So some emotional, violent escapism with a message I reckon.
We3 is a awesome 3-part graphic novel I have just finished. The reliable team of Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely released this back in 2004 I believe. It tells the tale of 3 household pets. A dog, a cat and arabbit. Appropriated by the goverment for a research project. They are encased in high tech suits, armed to the teeth and deployed as a covert strike unit in dangerous situations. The story follows they're escape and journey home. Avoiding the military and other nasty stuff. Its been described as "Universal Soldier meets Homeward Bound" which is a pretty silly description but does fit it immensly. Its one of the nicest, most heart warming stories I have read in a long time. The range of emotions expressed by the animals in the few words they utter and the detail of the art stands out more than the sudden bursts of violent brutality. I hope you enjoy this....
WOOF WOOF BANG
Allegedly there is a script penned by Morrison being developed with a green light to begin shooting next year. Imagine that.
Cheers to Lucid Media for this one.

I'M SWAYZE
Star of such films as Steel Dawn and Point Break, and that one about dancing ( which seemingly intelligent girls will make you watch) and the other one about ghosts.
here is the soundtrack to his, in my opinion, best efforts.
The Dancing Is Over, Now It Gets Dirty!
RIP
