My Favorite South Park Episode

Cartman goes to Idols and bets with Kyle and Stan that he can make it to the finals. They all, including Kenny sign up and fake their age. Cartman will do the stupid audition stuff the American Idol losers do. Simon Cowell loves him, though. And Kenny shines like the brightest star and ends up in the finals and eventually wins. He gets disqualified when Cartman reveals their true age. Kenny however will sign a record contract.

I Want Graveyard Book - The Movie

When listening to (yes, I'm addicted to audio books - nothing beats playing Fallout 3 & listening to books) The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, I formed this image in my head even though Neil Jordan has been assigned to write & direct a movie of the book:

The Graveyard Book - The Movie

Directed by Tim Burton

Produced by Danny Boyle / Edgar Wright.

Starring:

Liam Broggy as young Bod
Alex Pettyfer as late teen Bod
Gary Oldman as Silas
Helena Bonham Carter as Miss Lupescu
Emma Roberts as Lisa Hempstock
Sophie Wu as teen Scarlett Amber Perkins
Tim Kang as The Man Jack
Toby Stephens as Mr Owens
Rae Ritke as Mrs Owens
Kevin McKidd as Caius Pompeius

But, I guess we'll be seeing a crappy shitmovie that will spoil the book.

Good Luck, Earth

Today the first protons were injected into the 27-kilometre tunnel way below the Earth's surface. Large Hadron Collider started it's work today (if they already didn't in August)..

Will the rumors eventually become the truth? In the worst case scenario, we'll all live for at least ten years. After that, every year is a bonus. You'll have plenty of time to raise a kid, so let's do it today (only low birthrate countries please)! We'll destroy the planet sooner or later anyway so why not in the name of science rather than Russia bombing us to protons anyway?

They should make a movie, with Morgan Freeman doing the credit voiceover: "September 10th, 2008, The Collider was started and slowly and surely the end of days of life on Earth became nearer." The movie should -of course- be called "Armageddon 2" or "The Collider". And If I could choose, I'd name Gillian Anderson as the main scientist, Sigourney Weaver and Harold Ramis as the warning scientists, Tony Shalhoub as the hero dad, Gary Oldman as the other hero dad (and they'd fight over Tony's daughter and Gary's son dating), Megan Fox as the Daughter, Charlie Cox as the son.. The movie would basically be about the love story of a couple in their late teens and the last minutes before the end would start. There would be gunfights, BOINC network calculating how to stop it, scientist fighting, world peace. No riots because everyone would be too afraid, changing weather. Basically, you could put every destroy-the-earth-you-stupid-humans -movie plot in one. Imagine the amount of CGI! Imagine the scientists all over the world stating against the movie.. and the freaky cults... And everyone would go see it! Genious, am I?

My Cast

If I could make a movie about a book from my favorite author, Jean Auel, I would make a movie about Mammoth Hunters, though it is rather boring. It would be of good artistic value and easy to transfer to a script and would allow some special effects and great soap (!). This would be the cast of the main characters: (note all the superfamous people)

Ayla: I guess I should say Daryl Hannah, as she was Ayla in Clan of the Cave Bear, but I would really like to see Deborah Kara Unger play Ayla. I have liked her since she starred in Thirteen. But, as Ayla is - what - barely eighteen, she'd have to look young but have a sort of a Sense of Ancients.. Though she's 24 already, I'd put Jessica Biel into her character. Ayla has to be very fit, so Jessica fills that requirement as well. Her face has something ethereal, she's very beautiful.

Jondalar: As much as I would like to name one of my favorite actors, Ewan McGregor - as Jondalar, I won't do it. Ewan is blonde and blue-eyed, but he has too much smile in his eyes - and Jondalar is sizzling hot (sorry Ewan) and serious. He's the only character I had trouble with. I could've also chosen Gerard Butler, but he's too old too! I also thought about many today's actors, but there's no one to fill up Jondalar's boots. I even went through more than a hundred male models. Then I came across with him: Malte Heininger. They could cut his lines since I bet this cutie pie can't speak more than two words English, but who cares? Or Jondalar could be this equally gorgeous dreamy: Rob Warrington.

Ranec: Chris Rock. I never saw anyone else. He should be sorta handsome, but the fact that Auel emphasizes the smile of Ranec. And Chris Rock seems short and fit...

Frebec: I'd see John Light as Frebec. John Light has always done movies I think are C rather than B, but I like his face. He's overall appearance would match the image I got out of Frebec. He'd also make a good Joharran (Jondalar's brother) if the movie was about the latest book.

Fralie: As her name sounds, something frail.. Kelly McDonald. I remember her from the movie Girl in the cafe (with old-but-gorgeous Bill Nighy). She's cute. And would look great with children.

Nezzie: Where would we find a warm looking woman? Patricia Arquette. She'd have to put a lot weight on, though. I like her, she's great.

Latie: Zooey Deschanel. She'd have to look like a teenager, but with that face I'd say easy as hell. Plus she's pretty. I'd also put her in the role of Folara of the latest Earth's Children book.

Mamut: I would like to see Mamut as a sort of a comic character.. William L Petersen. He's one of the reasons I have seen every single ep of CSI. Twice.

Tulie: Stephanie March. She'd have to puff herself, though.

Talut: Dominic Purcell. He'd have to puff himself a little. And dye his hair red.

Who else would I have to add?

Oh, I'd also have to give a role to Wentworth Miller, of whom I liked very much when he played the lost Nam soldier in Ghost Whisperer.
