Some short things.
Going on rides that drastically alter your sense of perambulation is vastly preferable to crashing down from a cotton candy high.
According to this report from Dark Horizons, a film entitled The Proposition is being lensed in Australia right now-- and it's written by none other than Nick Cave. The rather extrordinary cast is made up of Guy Pearce, Ray Winstone, Danny Huston, Emily Watson, David Wenham, John Hurt and more (although IMDB only lists Pearce at the moment). The director is Johnny Hillcoat, who has helmed the majority of Cave's videos (none of the really good ones, though, unfortunately). I haven't seen Cave's one prior screenwriting attempt, The Ghosts Of The Civil Dead, but one would think that it would take a pretty good script to draw a cast like this one has.
The rumors are true -- a still image from one of the deleted scenes of Yen's segement of Deadroom has made its way online.
