Here's a 12-1/2 MB Quicktime movie with some behind-the-scenes stuff about Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, shiny.

Say, Mr. Fastest Filker... when you have a moment you really should write the theme song for this tv show.

They've even provided the first two lines.

Paint An Inch Thick!

Why do I predict you'll be writing something about this one?

And, doesn't Angelina Jolie -really- look like she could play Honor Harrington in this get-up?

[filkertom.livejournal.com]

Entirely possible on both counts. Jolie has grown on me a lot the past few years, on account of she can indeed act. I literally didn't think she was all that sexy at first, because the first couple of things I saw her in had her being an exotic looking hottie, and not much else. It's kinda like Trish Stratus in the WWE -- she's been working to be more than a pretty face.

Every Fan I know has looked at AJ in her uniform and eyepatch and thought, "Damn, its Honor"

I'm am SOOO pumped for this movie.

I also think its cool that even before the movie's been release, Hollywood is impressed with the writer/director Kevin C to offer him "Princess of Mars"

[siliconshaman.livejournal.com]

They're doing a film of "princess of mars"?!

YAY!!!

Bob Clampett had an option on that for a time before WWII I think. I had the very great pleasure many years ago of going to a tribute to Bob Clampett shortly before he passed away, and amongst the rarities that they screened was a pencil test of a running banth, loping along with many legs on each side. Wow. Now I understand that these clips can now be found on the BEANY AND CECIL DVD and I can get it for my own!

Here's an article about this long-lost project: http://www.angelfire.com/trek/erbzine18/erbz934.html

I have it. They are and you can (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/630560925X/tomsmithonlin-20).

Only problem is that David Weber has made it quite clear that any contract for movie rights will include a clause That Angelina Jolie will not have *anything* to do with an Honor Harrington movie.

It's a long story, but he's not fond of her, and with some reason.

SKYCAPTAINSQUEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

I like the cut o' your jib, matey. I LOVE The Rocketeer.

Damn, me too !!

You know, there has just gotta be a filk in the theme music to it. It almost just, but not quite, fits the words of High Flight...

[seanmonster.livejournal.com]

Maybe next we'll get a Crimson Skies movie...Nah, too much to hope for.

Hmm, Sky Captain = the Rocketeer + Crimson Skies + Castle in the Sky?

A familiar name

I heard recently that among the people who have worked on Sky Captain is a young lad who recently graduated from USC with a degree in film. His name: Jason Porath. I hope he gets a line in the credits so we can all stand up and applaud.

That would truly be boss.
