The answer, not much. This has been a hellacious week for yours truly, mainly at work. Due to the huge dumping of snow on Wednesday, things were all out of whack this week (plus shoveling feet of snow and mopping up the snow/salt residue left by customers is no fun at all), plus I missed a day of work so I have to be more careful than usual with my next paycheck. (Drats! Guess I'll have to hold off on buying any DVDs until mid-March!)
Concerning Rogue Cinema and the Vault.... I've made absolutely NO progress on anything this week. However, my deadline is coming up for RC, so starting Monday, I'll have to bust my butt on a daily (and nightly) basis in order to complete everything. And I've hardly done much at all with my review for "Beast of Hollow Mountain" for the Vault. In the last week, I've only typed up a handful of paragraphs (after deleting most of my first draft) and I'm finding it extremely hard to get back into the swing of things. I can't quite put my finger on why, but I can assure you that the urge is there. I want to get the review done, but I just can't seem to find the willpower or the energy to sit here and finish it off and move onto "Valley of Gwangi." (And "Spacemen & Go Go Girls.")
In non-movie/website news, I've gotten a slew of stuff from "Centerfield Cards and Comics" in Endicott, NY (<== See that Scott? Free plug!) I had a great deal of stuff on order and spent 50 bucks on: Issue #1 of Marvel's Limited "Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born" Series, Issues #1 and 2 of "War of the Undead," Issue #2 of Avatar's "Night of the Living Dead: The Beginning," Issue #2 of Wildstorm's "Friday the 13th" series, Issue #5 of Wildstorm's "Nightmare on Elm Street" series, Issue #3 of Wildstorm's "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" series, Issue #3 of Dynamite's "Darkman vs. Army of Darkness" mini-series, and finally, the latest issues of "Fangoria Magazine" and "G-Fan!" So far I've delved into the "Dark Tower" comic and issue #1 of "War of the Undead." The former is awesome, and boasts an excellently written story (that mirrors King's writing from his 7 book epic) with beautiful artwork. The latter boasts a cool, but thus far incomprehensible storyline involving the Third Reich's army of undead beasties (which include zombies, a mummy, Dracula, werewolves, Frankenstein's Monster, and other critters). This stuff should hold me over until "Army of Darkness vs. Marvel Zombies" comes out! I can't wait for that!
Well that's it for now gang. I'm going to really try hard to get some writing done this week. (Truthfully, I have no choice!) Along with the stuff I've been promising to deliver, I am also going to post a mini review for "Audition" here in the Blog, and possibly even one for "Ghost Rider" if I do manage to see it tomorrow night with my girlfriend. So until then, keep fighting the good fight for b-movie lovers everywhere as I have done for the last six (going on seven) years!
