What a Fascinating Modern Age We Live In

[tealin]

After a year of putting up with a chugging, jittering, lethargic DVD-rom, I finally – finally, sir – called customer support and now it works! IT WORKS! Like a fully functional DVD player! With sound and everything! I may never leave my computer again.

Thank you, Derek at LG Canada.

Behold! (Especially you, Bananabasket.) A Full-Length Corpse Bride Trailer!

Funny ... they've gone from using the Edward Scissorhands theme for the Snicket trailer to the Snicket theme for a Tim Burton movie. How the wheel does turn.

Additional Discly Drawings:
An Ecksian Wizard - Didn't mean to make him look so much like Ridcully but hey, no worries, she'll be right.
Lady LeJean - Batman made me read Thief of Time again. I decided, with my limited knowledge of actresses, that if They were to make it into a movie (which They should), They should cast Angelina Jolie as Myria LeJean. I didn't have any reference for her when I was drawing today, so this is a sort of pale reflection ... she ended up looking too young, kind of like Jessica Alba (a.k.a. Pocahontas Lips) which was unintentional.
LeJean's Entrance - People who know me in real life would not be surprised at all to learn that I do not do 'elegance' well. This will require some research. There is more than a little Carmen Sandiego influence here.

:D SWEEEET. Man, I will probably end up living in my computer room when I get older. :O

I am generally neutral about Corpse Bride. HMM.

Yeah, I liked the first trailer better. Ah well. Still going to go see it. I hope it has as awesome a soundtrack as Nightmare did. Or Edward Scissorhands, for that matter. C'mon, Mr Elfman, where's the goods?

I liked the first one better, too.

I saw Christopher Lee in the opening credits... I hope he plays Death. If Death is in the movie. (there are a large number of animate skeletons, so it is to be hoped...) He would make a perfect Death. (Did, actually... in the as-yet-unseen-by-me Soul Music movie/miniseries thingamabob.)

I think I shall put Reaper Man next on my list.
