    Politely but firmly asking the person at the box office for "one adult for the movie where Mark Wahlberg is bald" until I am sold a ticket for Flight Risk.

    An animated test I did for an idea I have featuring a werewolf punk rock girl, and a symphonic metal vampire. I think I wrapped this up at the end of 2022 while working on the Dusk's Flight short. I've always wanted to do a rock musical film/series/story. Music is Storytime by Nightwish.

    The problem with the MCU is that they're still trying to prop up their dead Avengers storyline instead of just ditching all of that and finally committing to a full-blown version of the X-Men universe. Something that gives me an Alpha Flight movie at the very least.

    I thought this reaction to Flight into Danger was rather endearing. But then I learned she was not only a professional actress, but a TV regular. So the fact she seems not to understand the idea of 'everyone wobble while we shake the camera' is a bit baffling. Flattering Greene in hope of work...?
