'STALKING EDGAR' THE MOVIE

johnny cash | june carter | screenwriting

Well, atfer my last post and the responses, I've begun writing it! I've not gotten too much down yet, but I'm still forming it in my mind. I'm thiking of doing a movie within a movie. Crazy stalker by night - crazy screenwriter by day!


Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg With Ken Foree! Now, THAT ROCKS!

As you can see from the photo above, there are many "tools" I can use (thanks to public domain! Gotta love it!) to create the illusion that he's even IN the movie! It also seems that Mr. Wright and Mr. Pegg enjoy video taping everything they do and everywhere they go! Thanks so much guys! I'll be sure to get you a free copy of our movie once it's finished!

Now, the purpose of this post is to not only gain attention to it and get folks involved in the production. But, also to send the messege that this will in no way be disparaging to Edgar! Even though he's done the unthinkable by ignoring me, I have the deepest respect for him as a filmmaker, writer and human being. Hey, he hasn't even blocked me from emailing him yet! Ya gotta love the guy for that!

So, as things are going right now, it will be primarily a laugh at myself. Though, things will be greatly exaggerated, a lot of the plot points will be taken directly from real life. It is for that reason that I need everyone who does NOT wish to have their responses used in the film to say so right away. Conversely, those who have no problem having their responses used need to give me permission to do so. Things can get ugly, even among friends, so let's avoid that!

Ok, so it'll take a minute for me to finish writing the script, but I do intend to get production started as soon as we're able. There will be no pay, no food provided and VERY long hours! Who wants to sign up?! It'll be great fun and I think there is a lot of talent to be found here. We'll need an entire crew as well as on screen talent.
Think it over and get back to me!

Sign me up, Spooky!!!

I'll be a grip, a gofer, an actor, a secretary and, if there are any good looking men around....ahem....nevermind. I'll just do whatever needs to be done.

Long hours? No problem. No pay? No problem. No food? Hell, I'm on a diet anyway. The only thing I want is to go to Cannes. Woo!Hoo!!

You have my permission to use anything I say and do in your script and in your movie. And I'll still be your friend no matter how much fun you make of me.

Your ideas for the screenplay sound FANTASTIC!!!!

When are you leaving for Atlanta? Did you get your check?

That is awsome, PW!

I'm sure everyone who decides they want in will find a niche. Like I said in the post, right now we need all of that! LOL Of course you can come to Cannes! I want everyone to go! It will be a true labor of love, and therefore the rewards should be reaped by all!

Atlanta....well, I am currently sitting in an over priced hotel room in Canton. Not only do I have to drive slow (not over 65) but the damn thing started over heating about an hour outside Dallas! I got so pissed off and am so tired and dirty and stinky, I just got a room! Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better day! Today (til now!) has really kinda sucked! I'm actually a bit freaked out that I won't make it! ARGH! .........happy thoughts, happy thoughts.....

Spooky you can use all my crap if ya like!

Sassys

I'm on my way!

I'm forming more of it in my head. It's now 10pm and I should've been writing it all down - will in a moment! Oh well, I like to let things really sink in and become alive in my mind first.
Don't be too excited to see me ~ I'm all dried up from the heat and have witch hair! Ick!

LOl Spooky we have

Sassys

these things we call showers...they tend to do wonders. Did you get to talk with the landlord? Or the trailor guy?

Sadly, sassy

This look is AFTER a shower! My hair is all dried up and frizzy and HUGE! No kidding, it's too big. Dolly Parton was just here to pray to my hair!
As to the apartment and mobile home ~ the mobile home folks haven't gotten back to me - they want me to drive by it first. The apartment sublet is still available, BUT after the car problems I had today - I had to pass. So, I'll be looking into alternative housing for a little while!

Ok I don't think it will be too hard to find you a place here

Sassys

Spooky, and at least here you have a friend...I still haven't got a place myself:(

I am supposed to go out on Friday and have a look at this place that doesn't require my first born AND a lot of money! When do you think you will get to Atlanta?
