Actually, I've already decided on my next project, although it could be a while
before it's done (script is finished, though). The working title is "Good Will
Skeleton". It's about a skeleton with a hidden talent who doesn't want to do
what skeletons usually do (which, as everyone knows, it to hang around
graveyards scaring people). Not as epic as 2001, certainly, but I've always
thought Lego skeletons were really cute and I wanted to a horror comedy with
them. I'll post updates on my movie page when events warrant.

Sounds like some good ideas, maybe you should give it a shot! :) (I have next
to no town stuff)

I honestly never considered this, mainly because you kind of have to know Lego
and have seen "2001: A Space Odyssey" to "get" my movie. Do you (and others)
really think it might appeal to a wider audience?

| (...) Oh right! I see it now. I don't recall those shots in the trippy bit, but it's been a while since I watched the movie. And I never realised quite how old it was - 1968! So what's next? 2010?
