Progress
Posted by Neil Brimelow | Filed under Vagueland Script
Things are falling in place with el scripto. The structure of the screenplay has been revised and am I having some fun now. I am trying to pair up the characters and find their chemistry before it gets to the casting point. I actually find writing the transition scenes (the slow time) [...]
Batman
Posted by Neil Brimelow | Filed under Uncategorized
The only flaw I could find in the whole movie was the Garbage Truck vs. the Batmobile. It was the only noticable bit of CGI and it stood out really bad. Otherwise, there was hardly any CGI in the movie and the movie was 10x better for it.
That said, the movie effectively painted [...]

I am writing the treatment for Waveland right now and I passed the shoot for a short film shooting in BSL, which was on the street next to mine.

Hellboy Dos

Kid get’s dropped off at his uncle’s house to be baby sat while the mom goes to Canada to look for houses.
Uncle [...]
Waveland is the new Vagueland
Posted by Neil Brimelow | Filed under General
Upon suggestion from my dear friend, I have decided to change the name of the first movie back to it’s original name- Waveland. Vagueland will be the name for the second movie, and it will be appropriate as the main characters will most certainly placed into a “Vague Land.” The final movie will [...]
FUCK VISTA
Posted by Neil Brimelow | Filed under General
I have been a champion of Vista for quite some time, but I have spent the better part of FOUR days fixing not only my computer, which all of a sudden decided to go apeshit, but I also fixed my friend Susan’s computer. Just as I partitioned the main drive, Vista crashed, taking everything [...]
Vista’s great
Posted by Neil Brimelow | Filed under General
I never had any problems with Vista, and I have not had to do a full system wipe in almost a year. Well, that came to an end yesterday when I was informed by Vista that I HAD to install a copy of Vista. Even though I had activated Vista, registered Vista and [...]
