I Am Link

--- Dude! I can barely contain myself, knowing that Zodiac is out in two freaking days! Two freaking days! Eeeee!!! The excitement is running me over like a bullet train. The thought, just this very second, occured to me that I totally ought to call in sick on Friday and go to the very first available show... but I think the boyfriend would be angry with me.

Point? oh right, these things are supposed to have a point. Many points, actually, and I haven't made a one. Here - the Geek-Maestro Harry Knowles reviews Zodiac at AICN, and says what everyone else has been saying: that it's effin' great. Choice quote:

"This is, almost certainly, David Fincher’s most accomplished work to date. It isn’t like anything that he’s ever done before. Here, he’s using all his tricks to tell a straight forward tale about a predator that preyed upon a society and how society tried to stop it."

--- Ass Picnic! And then, and then! Next week we have the ass-picnic that is 300 coming out! Man it's a good time to be a big gay geek. Via my pal Sean we have this interview with 300 director Zack Snyder over at Wizard.

Snyder also talks a bunch about where he and his co-writer are with regards to his next geek-gasm of a project, Watchmen, the graphic-novel Bible as far as I'm concerned. And as a totally gratuitous sidenote - who knew? Zack Snyder's kinda cute! Not Eli Roth cute, of course; but cuter then the average director.

--- Film Ick has gone script-review crazy, reviewing the scripts for QT's Grindhouse half, Death Proof, as well as the script for Terry Gilliam's will-probably-never-be-made-because-he's-cursed latest wonder, called The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus.

I haven't read either review because script-reviewing makes me prone to fits, but if you're not so fit-inclined, have at it.


--- Boo! Danny Boyle's Sunshine has been pushed back til Fall! Boo! What, am I supposed to get my Chris Evans fix from Fantastic Four 2? Shudder. (I totally will, though.)

--- And finally, you owe it to yourselves to head on over to the Fug Emporium every year post-Oscars to see what the Fug-Gals have to snark about Oscar Fashion. They've gotten me through two days of a slowly-bettering hangover with a smile, and I thank them.

And how awesome is Sally Kirkland? I love that crazy ho.
