i thought maybe the fact that everyone moved further away would make us update the blogs more and keep everyone in touch with what we were all up to! but yeh, doesnt look like it.
well, a little less than 6 weeks until carol goes overseas to europe and already slightly maybe starting to panic. who's going to eat asian food with me in the city, and who am i going to go to the movies with like 3 times a week?
hmmm so much going on.. but yes, the title of this blog post is the what i am here to talk about and if you've been following me on facebook you've probably seen that i had another yes, another audition for australia's favourite game show with everyones favourite drunk host, andrew okeefe!
so attended the audition with a friend of mine, and filled out the usual questions about what you'd do with the money and blah blah and your biggest fears and shit like that! it was about an hour of my life i'll never get back, but fingers crossed that i'll get chosen and win some money. because if you've been having to listen to me complain about the fact that i lent a certain individual money and havent gotten anything back, you'll certainly agree that i need some extra dollars!
after the audition, carol and i headed to nova where we got caught in the freak freakin' rain storm that nearly carried me into the sewers with its severity. no good. anyways, we arrive to see "last ride" the new australian drama with hugo weaving. i had some free tickets and had to use them up, so we rushed into the cinema to discover it pretty much empty except for the cliche oldies and gays... there were a couple of asians in there that i wasnt expecting...
but, 2 hours later!! fuck's sake! yeh, sure it was well acted and semi-beautifully shot, but fucking hell. do we need another depressing aussie drama dealing with father son relations?
omg... i had to get onto my high horse! but seriously.. why cant we make a good romantic comedy or an action movie or a musical or anything else!!!
where are the days of priscilla?? fucking hell, there's an odd movie... a bunch of queers on a bus to central australia! and it was amazing! hmmm i was so enraged and out of my mind that i actually gave up my seat to a senior citizen!
something was definately wrong. anyways, that is all.
p.s - studio execs and producers please get some balls and take some risks!!!!

If you wanna see an action movie or a romantic comedy or whatever, I think you're going to have to make it yourself.
Film a short - not even a film, just a trailer. All the best bits. Post it to YouTube. Research how to get funding. I'll help with the script, if you'd be interested - hell, I'd love to do it. A romantic action comedy? The Australian Hot Fuzz? That'd be awesome.
It's not like we don't know a bunch of actors looking for work, either :-)
