*snorks* I miss Dean. And Dean’s supporters.

And to give this post more substance, here’s the latest from AWN. Again, I refuse to pass judgement at this point in time.

SHREK 3 SCRIPT DETAILS ANNOUNCED.

With DreamWorks founder Jeffery Katzenberg previously talking up morebSHREK sequels at Cannes, DreamWorks has announced that HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS scribes Peter Seaman and Jeffrey Price will write the screenplay for SHREK 3. In addition, Jon Zack (PERFECT SCORE) has been hired as a script consultant.

The studio confirms that the third film will deal with King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Internet rumors state that the film will follow Shrek and Fiona’s attempts to hand over their new crowns to Fiona’s friend Arty (i.e. King Arthur), who is attending college with cheerleader Genevieve and jock Lancelot.

Like the other SHREK films, other writers will be brought onto the project to polish it after Seaman and Price. The studio said they might look to writers who worked on the previous films in the franchise.

No director(s) have been announced and it is most probable that stars Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz and Eddie Murphy will return as the key voices. The actors received $5 million for SHREK 2 and should be able to negotiate bigger paychecks after the stellar performance of the sequel. DreamWorks hopes to have SHREK 3 in theaters for the holidays in 2006.

This evening, mum and I went to a Human Rights Campaign event at an acquaintance’s house, then met up with Dad to see “The Day After Tomorrow.” You know, most people are skeptical about the outrageous bad science that dominates the movie’s plot, but I found even more egregious the insinuation that the movie’s vice president’s appearance and demeanor were similar to that of Dick Cheney, yet at the end of the movie, he admits he was wrong! Who do those writers think they’re fooling? XD

I guess I’d better go ahead and recap what’s been going on the past few days.

  1. I met Kell! She came to Dallas for A-Kon. My parents and I took her and her father to dinner Thursday night, before PoA. I got a sneak preview of the next issue of Sundowner! It’s going to be so awesome. *loves* She even drew a tiger for me in my little book!

  2. Where was I when I found out Reagan died? On the way to pick up Kell and her dad for dinner. We happened to drive past a bank and I saw the flags outside at half mast and inquired to my parents about it. They told me. I need to get back in the habit of listening to Air America.

  3. I actually saw PoA twice, once at midnight with the A-Kon people, Kell, and the usual crowd from my grade in high school, and the other the next morning, with Mimi and Tori and the usual crowd from their year. Crazy fun ensued! At midnight, I had the intention of being a Mary Sue, but when I saw the wig Kell brought for me (she uses it to Cosplay as Galadriel), I thought I would make a decent Fleur. Of course, the wig had the unfortunate side effect of making me look like a particularly inexpensive streetwalker. Fun. The next morning, I dressed as Percy, complete with Weasley sweater (*sob*), glasses (*double sob*), wand (paint brush), and sprayed red hair. Pictures will be posted soon, despite my claims that they would be up Friday afternoon.

  4. I’ve watched several Buffy episodes over the past couple days (I am so hooked), and it’s so keen! In the episode I’m watching now, Buffy is wearing sheep pajamas THAT I OWN. And in another episode, Willow wears a shirt with a map of Africa on the sleeves THAT MY MOM OWNS AND I FREQUENTLY BORROW. We are so cool!

  5. (No, you’re not.) Wow, I’ve become more reliant on my blog than I was aware. I was trying to think of what else I’ve done ove the past few days, and I went to look at my recent posts to see if I had written about anything. I am such a dork. XD

  6. Oh! Duh! Burkhead’s coming out party! I knew there was something of vital importance that was slipping my mind! Burkhead came out Saturday night! And that is, as a debutante; not as a homosexual. XD Her dress was utterly gorgeous, and she was the height of poise and general awesomeness. Go her!
Meanwhile, this is amusing. Oh, Ashcroft! And oooh, Sean Astin was wearing two Kerry stickers at the MTV movie awards! Hobbits for Kerry! To go along with “Aragorn is Howard Dean” and Mutants for Kerry, inspired by my costume and purse buttons at A-Kon. Bwaha.

P.S. CANNONEST CANON THAT EVER CANNONED DOWN CANON STREET. I LOVE YOU, CUARON.

Okay, so stuff has been resolved since the last post, and we’re all better people. Hurrah! And still working on the post talking about what I’ve done since Thursday.

Now sleep! At 12:30! Craziness. XD

My mom has developed a viscious mean streak. She has decided that I need to wake up at 7:45 every morning to go exercising with her, because that’s the time she says I’d wake up if I had a job or if I was going to summer school. So apparently now I’m not allowed to sleep in during the last free summer I’ll ever have (before retirement, at least), as I’m sure I’ll be getting a job next summer.

She rationalizes the ungodly hour by saying that it’s 9:00 Philadelphia time. Well when I’m in Philadelphia I’ll let her know. I wouldn’t really like to wake up at 9AM either. And guess what? It’s 4:45AM Alaska time! Does that have any bearing on my being awake while I’m in Dallas? No. If she wants me to be industrious, she should let me stay on my own natural sleep cycle. I tried to exercise at 8 in the morning yesterday, and I could barely even comprehend reality, my head was so fuzzy. I’ll operate heavy machinery when I’m good and coherent, thankyouverymuch.

Have I done something to offend her or anger her? Is this some passive-agressive vengance for wronging her in some way? Grghlfsg, maybe I’ll feel better after a shower…

Renata, how expensive are tickets to The Producers? How hard is it to get cheap student discount tix? And what about Avenue Q? I know you said it was crazydifficult to get student discount Wicked tickets.

I know it would be a lot smarter to email you, but the email button is all the way over there…

Oh — Rebecca and Tanja — I’m compiling the itinerary. Could I have contact numbers, names, etc for parents?

When I said “Photospam in my LJ,” I meant “Oh, look! I posted a large number of new photographs in my LiveJournal that I am very proud of and that I hope all my friends will see and comment upon.”

Just so that’s clear. :D
