It's been a good couple of days. I went to see Stomp last night and then the Matrix: Revolutions today so I'm in a pretty good mood.

Gerry says that we need to hype our joint blog, which is funny because we each represent half of the other's audience. Here's how the preview would look if this was a movie:

20th century fox fanfare circa 1977, then the Warner Brothers title screen, fade to black.

fade in music: "the Guns of Love Disastrous" by the Smashing Pumpkins (instrumental variation of the Batman and Robin movie songs)

Transition up from black to the two fools, Loyal and Gerry standing facing each other by a cool looking grey metal wall. Loyal is wearing one of his several short sleeve black "artist" shirts. Gerry is wearing a red shirt with a blue shirt over it, looking sophisticatedly geeky.

Gerry: "It's time, fool."

Loyal: "Aye."

Fast paced montage of both characters doing all kinds of exciting things, like driving speed boats and jumping across rooftops a la Spike Jonze's Sabotage video. Intercut shots of mundane things too, like driving and sitting in the basement watching TV.

That's how it would go, I suppose. Geeked out and overhyped. The only good thing about it would be that we aren't moving our story to Miami and picking a fight with Vinnie Barbarino. Who would do that? That would be worse than devoting half of Godfather III to Michael Corleone's daughter and Greedo shooting first combined.
