Boring Sketchbook, Interesting Day

[tealin]

Actually working in publishing might not be so much fun, but having a roommate who does certainly is! Last night I got to see a preview of V For Vendetta (courtesy of Warner Books) and ... it was actually quite good. The Matrix people seem to have remembered that having an editor is actually a good thing, which is a plus. I won't say too much, except that the pacing and acting and, yes, even the writing were good, though Natalie Portman's accent was not (Vowels! Vowels! Is it so hard?), and ... STEPHEN FRYYYY! (eep!) I also suggest to those who go to see it that you sit in the back half of the theatre – I was near the front and some of the scenes were ... a little too frenetic.

Today's recommended daily allowance of cryptic comments is brought to you by the letter V.

WEDNESDAY'S SKETCHBOOK
Page One - Traded bus people for movie theatre people! Also, trying to remember how I drew someone's face, and some studies for an amusing sketch for the above song.
Page Two - More people standing around, and another study. I told you it was a boring sketchbook day, when will you people read the subject line? ;)

British. He also wrote the Graphic Novel "From Hell". Yay for Jack the Ripper!

Well, I certainly liked the movie version of V better than From Hell, which seemed to be an excuse for the director to find more and more artistic ways to portray more and more gruesome murder scenes. :P
