June 2, 2023: More Stargate BTS vids! Developments!
This Mortal Coil... Air, Part 1... Broken Ties... Finished the first draft of my murder mystery pilot and I'm happy...for the most part. I still feel the ending is a little too easy, the evidence maybe a little too circumstantial, and my first reader, Ivon, agrees. We'll take the weekend to think about it. Maybe…
June 1, 2023: Project Update!
My horror movie intake has started to flagging only 242 films into this extended marathon. And with less than 60 to go before I hit the big 3-0-0! To be fair, I have been distracted by development work and trying to get this high concept, low budget horror movie off the ground, but I'm going…

A few more Stargate behind…
May 29, 2023: Recommend me a binge-worthy series with fewer than 50 episodes that was produced in the last 5 years and is in the same league as The Sopranos, The Shield, and Breaking Bad!
https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1663215989343789057 I really wanted to keep it within a specific budget range, and that seems unlikely so, at this point, I can either scrap it or consider a different shooting location - maybe Bulgaria or Serbia?
