Not a new website or trailer but an observation of the graphic used at the trailers.apple.com website for 01-18-08.

Usually for effect the graphic artists will shade out some areas to provide contrast or add a touch of mystery or focus to an image. But in this one I think that it is actually a silhouette of the creature or creatures.

Now, if it is just one critter then it is obviously leaving New York to head out to sea. If there are two creatures is one following the other INTO New York?

Just wondering because in the trailer the city area bursts into flames and then the head of the Statue of Liberty is tossed inland. If this is the case then did the monster transform from a human into the beast from drinking 6 slushos and then head out to sea?

The comment, “It’s alive, it’s huge” might lead one to speculate that a previously inanimate or dead thing might have been on display in New York but it wasn’t quite as dead as the people thought? Did it revive and not like finding itself in New York city?

The time is drawing closer, where are the new hints and clues?

Yes, now you too can become a Certified Liberal Whisperer! The certification exam is very easy! Only one question, but you have to get it correct (sorry liberals). Here it is:

Using only one sentence, explain liberal thinking.

Don’t think it can be done? Sure, the answer is simple and once you know it you too can receive your certification as a Liberal Whisperer.

The answer is:

It doesn’t matter the consequences, it is the thought that counts.

That’s it. There is no other explanation necessary. Liberalism is a narcissistic, myopic, gutless form of crass hedonism of the worst kind. Nothing else matters and nothing matters more to a simplistic liberal than how they “feel”.

And that is the secret to unraveling their maddening illogic on almost any issue. A liberal will take whatever course and action necessary so they can feel smug and self righteous about themselves. It doesn’t matter that “Universal” health care has never and can never work. It only feels good to them when they think they have everyone covered.

Contradictions in ideological beliefs like supporting abortion yet opposing capital punishment suddenly melt away because now you have the key to speaking their language: “as long as I feel good, nothing else matters.” History doesn’t matter. Facts don’t matter. Logic doesn’t matter. Nothing matters except the liberals’ “felt need” and nothing had better get in their way on their way to satisfying it, at any cost.

And there you have it. You are a Certified Liberal Whisperer. You can print out your Certificate (see link above) and display it proudly on your wall or cubical. Just remember to edit out YOUR NAME HERE!!! *wink*

Back in February I exposed the lie that Al Gore won an Oscar for his snooze-o-rama “An Inconvenient Truth.”  Last night the main stream media faked another award for the bum, this time an Emmy Award.

Headlines, even on Drudge, are reporting Al Gore won an Emmy.  But, the same as back in February, he was merely accepting the award on behalf of the true winner, this time the website current.tv.

We can only hope this buffoon does not show up at the Tony Awards!

This from the Hollywood Reporter:

TORONTO — Commercial director Joseph Kosinski is in final negotiations to develop and direct “Tron,” described as “the next chapter” of Disney’s 1982 cult classic. Sean Bailey is producing via the Live Planet banner, as is Steven Lisberger, who co-wrote and directed the original film.

Kosinski, who last month signed on to helm the remake of “Logan’s Run” for Warner Bros. Pictures, will oversee the visual development of the project and have input on the script, which is being written by “Lost” scribes Eddie Kitsis and Adam Horowitz. Story details are being kept secret.

The original, about a computer programr thrust into a computer and forced to fight in games he helped create, is remembered for its sci-fi gladiator-style battles and groundbreaking special effects. It was the first movie to use computer-generated images instead of models and other optical effects in conjunction with live action. The arcade game based on the movie was so popular that it earned more than the movie.

When making the original, in order to convince the studio to take a chance on a first-time director, Lisberger shot a test reel, financed by the studio, involving the deadly Frisbee battle. In a case of historical synchronicity, sources said one of the things Kosinski will be doing is working on a sequence involving the movie’s Light Cycles to work out his vision for the movie. Sources also said visual effects personnel, for many of whom “Tron” was an inspiration to enter the business, already are jockeying for pole position to work on the sequence.

Brigham Taylor is overseeing for Disney.

Kosinski is a former architect whose specs caught the attention of director David Fincher, who convinced Kosinski to move to Los Angeles, where he joined the director at commercial house Anonymous Content. Kosinski then moved quickly up the ladder, eventually directing award-winning spots for Nike, Apple and Nintendo that gained notice for their use of computer technology that erased the lines between reality and CGI.

Kosinski is repped by Endeavor and Michael Sugar and Bard Dorros at Anonymous Content.

This is wonderful news for those of us taken in by the 1999 hoax report of Tron 2.0 being filmed at that time. Let’s hope everything pans out this time around. But did I also read mention of one of my other favorite movies… a remake of Logan’s Run?

I don’t know, I am far more tolerable with sequels as opposed to remakes. While most sequels are boring, predictable, and unfun, remakes just plain make me angry. They ALWAYS lose the director’s original vision and statement. And of course, that is the point of making a remake; to reshape the product to fit a new perspective or message.

Well, okay, now that I think about it a bit, the Ten Commandments (made and then remade by Cecil B. DeMille) and the Omega Man (Ubaldo Ragona directed Vincent Price and Boris Sagal directing Charlton Heston) might be better than their original big screen progenitors. Charlton Heston had something to do with that I think!

But look for Tron to be making another appearance, and with Disney behind it, watch for the FLOOD of pre-release marketing and merchandising. Remember the immortal words of Yogurt,

Moichandizing, moichandizing, moichandizing, where the REAL money from the movie is made.

I know several people who fall into this category. Sad thing is when they don’t realize it.
