I didn’t write anything Monday or Tuesday, because I am a big, fat slacker.
Tonight: more coffee shop writing. That word count will go up, it’s just a matter of how much.
Acres of style, but very little substance. The Spirit is all over the place: campy, serious, and everywhere in between. Eva Mendes is little more than empty-calorie eye candy; Samuel L. Jackson is clearly having fun but even that isn't enough to redeem this dud.

Flashy, violent and physics-defying tale of a fraternity of secret assassins. An entertaining watch with a very familiar feel if you've watched director Timur Bekmambetov's Night Watch and Day Watch.

Some films just don't stand the test of time, and Enter the Ninja is one of them. Fight sequences that once were top-notch now seem awkward and anti-climactic, and the plot is stolen from every Chuck Norris movie ever made.

Hidden beneath the titillation and gore is a subtle, complex and surprisingly rich cautionary tale about the dangers of...oh, who am I kidding? This movie is utter trash and proud of it.

Laura says that the big problem with Get Smart is that it gets too hung up on having a plot. As weird as it sounds, I tend to agree.

You and I could open a store, we could call it Slackers ‘R Us. However, considering the slackers that we are, we would never be able to get it up and running.
Yep. I wrote about 700 words last night at the coffee shop. I need to wrap up the current scene, which will lead directly into a flashback that explains how my protagonist managed to get himself thrown out of a plane.
It should be an interesting scene to write, since I don’t know why he was on the plane in the first place.
Was he on the plane to fly to where ever he was going to bury a time capsule? Or how about going to a family reunion? Or maybe he is just the type of guy to go for a plane ride? Sometimes when he gets antsy he just needs to hop on a plane, destination unknown, and just fly…..good thing that I am not the writer….
Based on my experience with airplanes (maybe Vibeguy can back me up on this), he was flying somewhere?
Like, duh.
This writing thingy is fun, if I can be of any more help - ask.

Oh, a wise guy, eh?
Just tryin to help. Wouldn’t want any confusion on the role of aircraft as a mode of transportation for the masses.
OTOH, yup.
