We be lacking the colors!

 I picked up two movies last week; the Dead like me movie and the final segment of the Futurama movies. I didn't watch Futurama "Into the Wild Green Yonder" yet, but I did watch Dead Like me. The Dead Like Me movie was a little weird. It felt like they had a great plot idea in the intro and then it died half-way thru the plot. The camera blurs were annoying. I was sad that Rube was gone, though it worked well in the plot of Georga getting a "Raise"... I really didn't like the new Daisy, the actress wasn't pretty or classy enough. I was glad the kept the same actress as Reggie (she grew up so well!). I liked the whole Georga-Reggie thing going on, even if it was full of cheesiness (also, wtf Reggie boyfriend was a complete asshole.) 

You could tell the movie didn't go where the directors wanted it to, and it didn't answer any of the plotholes remaining in the series. I did like getting a spoonfull of George's attitude once more, getting to see Reaper murders was hilarious, and I love the movie introduction, done in comic form. But generally, it was kinda disapointing. I think they lacked budget and didn't get the actors or settings they wanted and had to make due. Meh, it was worth a try and die-heart fans will at least enjoy seeing the characters get one last run. Considering this was pretty much a flop I do believe it WILL be the last run. But that's okay, this way Dead like me and Death keeps it's mysteries.

I do have to say... POST ITS RAINING FROM THE SKY = Awesome.

Now for drawings; I,m in a big banner mood, so I drew the website banner earthstar_chan  asked me to. The theme is "a sea of tea"... I really like it. Especially Ozel doing her super-robot-ninja-maid serving tea. The world needs more super-robot-ninja-maids. It only lacks color, I wait for Johanne to tell me what type of colors she would like to see in here.



Again, for a project with earthstar_chan ... Here is a few sketches. It's for a giant Slayers fanfic-with-illustrations based on the idea of transmitting the story to a steampunk universe (much like the one you can find in Howl's moving Castle or the webcomic Girl Genius). At first it seemed like we were going to do a very "Alternate universe" type of story, but more and more as we compose the plot, this is actually going to a be a story that ties in nicely with the series and the novels. You'll all see. Here are the costume designs for lina and Amelia...



The plot is somewhat secret for now, but it's going to be amazing! You'll see!

Bah, as a final note i'd like to express my extreme geekout over Watchmen and the Harry Potter trailer. WOW. Even if the movie WOULD suck (but that's impossible) they both look so beautiful O_O... It's crazy what you can do with digital cameras and special effects these days!
