another timely bump. went to the initial preview of the movie tonight (",). i think i like dark star better...

early next year will be an actual red carpet previewy thingo. i wont get hold of the dvd until then. bummer because i just met a woman and i thought a cool first date would be to bring the dvd around to hers. so now im gonna have to think of something else. maybe some dr who

What? This wasn't a "direct to DVD" release? Wow!

Keep us posted on when the DVD is released...

oh, im pretty sure it will be only straight to dvd. but if you can screen it just once on a big screen its a cool thing to do.

oh, and earlier i joked about the blue screen of death and linux. well, in several shots there is linux stuff happening on the background screens and if that wasnt clue enough to the producer/directors affiliations, the scenes featuring the ships engineer shows him wearing a linux t-shirt!

well, we finally had the world premier of the movie last night (",). i was running a bit late, so i missed out on the red carpet photo opportunities. so all we have is pics taken by my slwoly ailing sony crapocam. first one is with melissa, who plays first officer Petty. i like melissa...

this is with Ronnie, who plpays my superior, Esdaille. since the director always called us by our character names, i kept forgetting rons! hes a cool dude, he gave me his business card so i wouldnt forget again

. he has some similarities to steve irwin, including the ocker accent, so sure enough there is a scene in the movie where he meets a monster

"CRIKEY" he yells!

edit: i get the feeling that 'surfer dude' on the left fancies 'blondie' on the right...

these guys are from the funkiest scene in the movie. the girl is dressed in a nurses uniform (as bought from an adult shop) and dancing in the background while the guys are flying their spaceship. not really sure why. as soon as i buy a new (canon) camera the sony is going in the bin...
the guy in the middle had this sort of french accent in the movie. i didnt know why he would do that, so i said something along the lines of 'that was an interesting accent you put on'. turns out he is actually french!

me and a friend went to a bar called the rumpus room afterwards. wouldnt ya know it, they had 1942 in a cab (any aussies know about this cab style? i quite like the look of it) set on free play (",)

as a post script to that, a woman saw me in my suit and taking photos and chatted me up. ended up at her place. purely to talk about arcade games naturally...

This is all very cool danny.

danny_galaga · « **Reply #47 on:** March 25, 2007, 08:40:30 am »

today i had my housemate take a few pics with her (working) camera before i took the suit back to the hire shop as i think i dont look too shabby in it. it would have been a pity to only have my crappy photos to send the folks...

i probably should have taken a shower before taking the pics. oh well...

ill post a few stills in the next few days. we all got paid with a free dvd (",)

Hey that looks cool. You could be the Australian version of James Bond in that suit. Why did you wear a tie on that bow tie shirt though?

The tie looks much better than a bow tie any day of any week of any year.

Except for those bow ties that spin round and round. Those are awsome.

It's not so much the tie itself I'm wondering about, but the combination of a bow tie shirt with a tie.

you mean like George Lazenby?

the shirt and tie combo was recommended to me. decaprio and clooney both wore ties this year. but you know, now im looking, dicaprio has a regular shirt with that tie. cant find a pic of clooney this year...

Danny i believe that is one of the many L&A generic cabs i think there might still be one down neer me in melbourne

When the dvd comes out give me a PM where i can pick it up from

danny_galaga · « **Reply #55 on:** April 04, 2007, 08:10:08 am »

ok. starting to pick out stills from the dvd. for now, this is one im most proud of. im off screen swinging the branch into esdales face. this got me credited as 'branch manager' which i think is freaking cool. i can now honestly put on my resume 'branch manager- angel studios' (",)

patrickl · « **Reply #56 on:** April 04, 2007, 04:37:26 pm »

Great footage. Love the acting

danny_galaga · « **Reply #57 on:** April 07, 2007, 10:43:06 am »

ok. every sci fi needs an evil doer with freaky sunglasses. the actors name is memphis joe. cant quite remember where he is from originally

danny_galaga · « **Reply #58 on:** April 07, 2007, 10:46:14 am »

and whats a sci fi without a torture scene involving one o those zappy sparky thingos in the background?

danny_galaga · « **Reply #59 on:** April 25, 2007, 06:11:51 am »

nurse!

Havok · « **Reply #60 on:** April 27, 2007, 10:41:45 am »

Haha - she's awesome! Great dancer!!!

One of these days I'll order the DVD...

danny_galaga · « **Reply #61 on:** April 28, 2007, 04:37:05 am »

hehe. as well as an actress in the movie, she is in fact the choreographer as well! the goofy dancing is of course really hammed up. i wouldnt mind some horizontal folf dancing lessons from her...

also look here for the trailer:

in it you can see me in action (if you look very closely and dont blink)

All that production talent and not one of you was a language coach? I always cringe at how thick the Queensland accent can get, like all those tourists make 'em double their efforts to sound occa.

danny_galaga · « **Reply #63 on:** April 29, 2007, 03:26:26 am »

crikey! fair suck of the sav digger! i think the queensland accent is bonza! streuth you must be a poofta or something

its funny when im overseas because sometimes people assume im from somewhere else. my accent is fairly neutral for an aussie one. being first generation and from darwin (where EVERYONE is from somewhere else) helps...

jbox · « **Reply #64 on:** April 29, 2007, 04:29:47 am »

It's funny for me, that because of the broad range of television I watched when I was growing up all my multi-syllabic insults tend to have a British accent, and all my crudest insults tend to have an American accent. Just depends on whether the person reminds me of a Baldrick or a Baldwin.
