Just watched "Split". It was a pretty cool movie. Things are quiet here at the job. Its a holiday weekend so the maintenance aren't even here this morning. Theres another guard here as usual. Theres a cute white guy outside in his car. I went out to check because the lights were on in his vehicle and I wanted to make sure he was okay as he was out there for awhile. He's laid back in his car. Buried in his cellphone. Basically. Like so many other people these days. How in the world can you walk around texting someone almost constantly? But I don't judge. Its just a sign of the times how disconnected folks are from everything.  Now getting back to "Split"I really enjoyed the suspenseful nature of the film and the topic of multiple personalities is an intriguing one. I was kinda interested in seeing the film when it first came out but when I heard theres a connection with Nights film "Unbreakable" I knew I had to see it. "Unbreakable" is one of my favorite films ever. I think "Highlander" is the only film I like more. In case you haven't seen either of these films "Highlander" is about a guy named Conner who discovers he's immortal and he is destined to do battle with another immortal (Kurgan)  who is evil. Conners thing is he is scared to let anyone come into his life because its too painful seeing them grow old and die. So for all his power,knowledge (and incredibly expensive antique collection!) Conner is a pretty sad person since he's lost so many over the years. He is also one of the only two immortals left alive since Kurgan killed all the others. The film has some breathtaking cinematography. Its also cool the crew went to Scotland to shoot it. They also built a freaking castle! Also I love the sword fights. The immortals all fight with swords as they can only be killed by beheading. The immortal doing the beheading absorbs all the power and knowledge from the one he kills. Highlander went on to become a pop cultural phenomena. It spawned five movies. Two tv shows. Novels. Cartoons. Videogames. T-Shirts. Music collections. Clothes. Comic books. So yeah it was and still is a hot property. Supposedly a remake is in the works. "Unbreakable" is about a security guard who with help from his son discovers he has super powers. He's amazingly strong and pretty much indestructible. He survives a train crash with not even a scratch. He can also touch people and absorb information about them. Water seems to be his "Kryptonite". I'm not so big on water myself. "Unbreakable" was in my opinion Night Shyamalans best film. Ever. I enjoyed "Sixth Sense" like so many others but kinda felt it was a bit overrated. Anyway I am always scared when people make sequels to things that were perfect. All the other films Night did were okay. A few were just not so okay. Although I am probably the only person in the world who enjoyed "Last Airbender" even though he cast a little white kid when he clearly should have used a Chinese kid. The little white kid was pretty good with his kung fu though.... "Split" dealt with a guy with 24 multiple personalities who took three girls hostage with the intent to eat two of them he considered unworthy. The supernatural twist is that he can actually gain different traits from each personality thats dominant. Super strength. Healing. Sticking to walls like Spider-man. He also has some of Supermans invulnerability as well apparently. At the end of "Split" you discover its actually a sequel to "Unbreakable". Now I have been hearing talk of a sequel for years yet it seemed it wasn't gonna happen. You know kinda like how that "Kill Bill" sequel probably won't ever happen even though Tarantino said he was gonna do one YEARS ago.

Posted a new episode of my "DragonManx" webseries hours ago. Not gonna lie because after I watched it I was kinda mad at some of my bad acting and some of the effects were not as good as I would have liked. Still it just inspired me to make a better episode the next time around which might be sooner than later. I might as well work on something else right now since I can't do anything "Daughters of Legend" related until I can raise more moolah. I think maybe this week Ima try to get some of the cast together so we can work on our scenes. Also gotta work on that chemistry thing. Its a pet peeve of mine that I don't like going a month without working on a film project in some capacity. I'm meeting with a writer this week by the way. A woman writer actually who is gonna help me on the script as well as in producing the SonsofLegend full length film. I am gonna meet today with a guy who I've known for awhile now regarding production on the "SonsofLegend" full length project as well. Next month and in July a couple of other guys are gonna meet up with me too. Right now they are out of town on gigs. Been assembling quite a team for SOL. Its gonna be something else. Hopefully I can still utilize some of the footage I already had shot in Michigan. The big thing I have to worry about at the moment is getting the money for these projects. So I'm gonna be working on getting a press package of sorts together. Need to get some artwork done. Need a teaser trailer. Already came up with a concept while in San Diego. Would also like to do some kind of a photo shoot with the cast in costumes. Now you see why I need production assistance right? I need a production partner to help me carry the load. So yeah theres that. Maybe dude I'm meeting up with today can do that. Hopefully he won't be too spread out with other projects though. Will probably go back to Michigan in June to shoot more scenes for DM or SOL. I think its safe to say its time I start strongly considering getting my own film equipment too to save moolah....
