Studio is keeping the film's logline under wraps, but stressed the pic is a stand-alone story and supernatural thriller that takes the complicated relationship between Mulder and Scully in new directions.

Even more on X-Files 2
Per Variety, the sequel (which still doesn't have an official title) will release on July 25, 2008! That's a crazy short production schedule (they begin filming this December 10) but perhaps they can do it...

Happy Halloween
My sister reminded me that little children could be walking up to my door this evening asking for candy.
How was I oblivious to this? I knew Halloween was coming up but somehow it didn't occur to me that all the little kids in my apartment complex could be knocking on my door demanding treats.
I guess I'll have to go to the store at the last minute on my way home from school (I'll be at school from 8:30 to 5:30 today, beautiful!). Sonofabitch.
To get in the spirit of things, here's a picture of one of my Halloweens. Prior to this picture being taken, some little effer ripped off my tail (I'm supposed to be the Pink Panther). I was furious. Ahh, childhood!

Twin Peaks full box set released today
As I mentioned in an earlier post, the entire Twin Peaks series (including the pilot) is now available for sale as one box set!
Amazon is selling it at $35 off - and they also have a recipe for cherry pie and a video montage related to coffee on the product page.
Me thinky I need to buy this.

Bizarro
I just discovered something: In one of my books for my Contracts class there is a copy of the release form the producers of Borat asked participants to sign in order to appear in the film. The form describes the film as a "documentary-style film.... that the producer hopes [will] reach a young adult audience by using entertaining content and formats."
You may have heard that some of the participants sued the filmmakers, to no avail.
It was funny to flip through my school book and see a contract titled "Borat Release." Ha!

More on X-Files 2
This sequel has an IMDB listing now (moving it closer to legitimacy!), and filming begins in Vancouver on December 10. I'm happy to hear they'll be back in Vancouver. Those sunny days in LA were just not the same.
Chris Carter will direct a script he co-wrote with Frank Spotnitz. I can't wait to find out what Mulder and Scully have been up to since the finale, when we last saw them on a bed in a hotel room together!

New movies on the horizon
A new documentary about the late Joe Strummer.
A new one from the Coen Brothers (reminds me of Blood Simple).
And from Paul Thomas Anderson: There Will Be Blood.
Michel Gondry's take on video rentals.
Teaser for Francis Ford Coppola's Youth on Youth, starring Tim Roth.
From the guy who brought you Donnie Darko - here is Southland Tales (I'm worried this will suck).
Juno (this looks cute, and has Jason Bateman, Michael Cera, Rainn Wilson and Jennifer Garner).

A gift from Moby
This is really cool - Moby has an area on his site where videographers/filmmakers of any level or purpose can download tracks of his to use in their videos. The only condition is that the music is not used in commercial projects (a Creative Commons type approach).
This is a really amazing gift - some of the tracks are hauntingly beautiful, as fans of the Play LP know.

Funny things I heard on Saturday
I had to share these...
On Saturday morning, I volunteered with a group of law students who painted a disabled man's home (through an organization that helps link volunteers with people in need of this type of assistance).
You know me and physical labor/exertion - by the end of it I wanted to die (it was hot, and the house wasn't prepped by the organization (if only the home were made of stucco. No, the home was made of deteriorating wood and we had to scrape off a good portion of the old paint before we could paint it anew).
Anyway, I shouldn't be bitching so much. I linked up with a few friends from class to work on one section of the house and we had a few laughs. At one point, one of the guys (who cracks my shit up) is debating whether he should go to the alley behind the house to take a leak (lovely). I mention how unfortunate it would be to be arrested for indecent exposure while he's out here volunteering. His response? "It's decent," he says. And by "it" - well, you know what he was referring to.
At another point we had to put some caulking around the edge of a window frame. Well none of us could let it go unnoticed that you pronounce it "cocking." Yes! I love that I'm finding all of my dirty-minded kindred spirits.
After the caulking was done and was drying, my bladdery friend says "it looks like someone [inaudible] all over the window." My ears perked up - "What?" I said. "Oh, you heard that, huh? Skeet, skeet."
Then, later that day I met up with some other friends for a much-needed drink. My classmate was filling me in on the dating history of another person who was there and mentioned that "he dated [name omitted] for a while, in the 'rugburns on the shoulders' kind of way." NICE! I'd like to date someone in that kind of way, too.
