Will probably be out around the end of the year! Glenn Chadbourne turned in the last of the artwork in January.

What happened to the Seven Stories thread? Am I just not seeing the tree because of the forest?

It's more like the Tribe of Shelley-yikes.

[Hedda Gabler]

Look at her! Seriously. Somebody outta put some googly eyes and a big mouth on her.

Oh wait, you did.

Poor Shelley, poor, poor maligned Shelley

NB- Brian, I apologise for the Duvallisation of what is supposed to be your blog thread. My only excuse is that I appear to be yet another follower of the Tribe of Shelleyite

agreed.

She was so whiny too...I wanted him to chop her up to make the whining stop

[Hedda Gabler]

Absolutely, she was beautiful as Olive Oyl. No one could have done any better.

But Wendy? Good God. She was so stiff and distracting. There's a part in the movie where she's smoking a cigarette. I think Will Robinson's robot could have smoked that cigarette with more acting chops than she had. And that's while he's flailing his dryer-vent arms around screaming, Danger!Danger!

The line I always throw out about her performance is this: How stiff does someone have to be before we put them in the Smithsonian?

I'm not sure how you would have done that, they were all very disrespectful and rude. I'm sure Shelley is a very lovely person in her day-to-day life. But, I was rooting for Jack to hack her to bits in The Shining. Painfully.

I didn't understand that casting, either. Wendy in the book is everything Shelley Duvall isn't, especially how she played Wendy in the movie. (But she did make the perfect Olive Oyl.)

I had the same problem with the casting of Tad in Cujo.

Spoiler!

When I read the book, I swore I'd never read another King book if the boy died. When I saw the movie, I was quite okay with that eventuality, that was really disappointed that they changed the ending.

[Hedda Gabler]

Wow. You really are a good writer because that would have taken some talent to clean those up.

There MAY have been some slight editing involved.
