Cue John Williams' signature tune in 25.1 surround sound...

It had to happen. Well, it didn't have to, but... it's going to...

According to The Hollywood Reporter, George Lucas is such a fan of the latest 3-D technology that he is planning to remaster all of the Star Wars films for rerelease in 3-D.

As the fans of Star Wars get older and fatter is there going to be room in the theatres for them plus Jabba and the various Death Stars busting out of the screen?

I'm holding out for My 3-D Dinner With Andre.

NOT that I wish family illness on anyone...

...but, damn!, it sure is nice to listen to CBC Radio One's Metro Morning without that pretentious blowhard Andy Barrie yakking over the people he's "interviewing". If Andy doesn't return, the Corp. would be seriously remiss if they didn't offer the job to the always-engaging Kevin Sylvester.

Next timelord a serial killer?

If so, can he go back in time and make Dexter season 3 not happen? And maybe take Rita as his companion and dump her off on some distant planet somewhere?

Twice Removed?

I walked past the Royal Winter Garden Theatre last weekend, and noticed a banner for "Happy Days: The Musical". So let me get this straight: we're about to get a nostalgic look at a nostalgic look at the 50s?! Fuck me.

My new million-dollar pitch to any theatre producers reading this: I Got Nothin': The Musical!

Pilates Class

Fuckin' Hell.

But what would a lazy person DO with an extra 10 minutes?!

Nope. It doesn't cook 'em...

And only $499 U.S.

The first resolution to fall by the wayside...

Maybe in 2010...

UPDATED: Riters who kant reed rite to me

So, more about my quest to find a writing partner. My advert specifically states that I'm looking for a collaborator local to Toronto.

So far, here's how the responses break down:

From Los Angeles: 3
From London, England: 2
From Manhattan: 1
From New Jersey: 1
From Toronto: 3

...and one response from someone who offered to show me his "special effects makeup portfolio". I'm choosing to take that one literally, not as some sort of cloaked sexual come-on.

Conclusions? (1) Two-thirds of people who consider themselves writers can't read and understand a basic request. (2) Latex fumes rot your brain something awful.

Addict, meet Crack.

I apologize in advance.

Question of the day

Does anyone out there work in a "paperless office"? Thought not. Back to your filing.
