Not to make simple things complicated*
Mar. 15th, 2007 12:45 pm...but to make complicated things simple.*
Let's do some math:
1) Waking up at 5:50 am this morning was:
a) cruel and unusual
b) voluntary and necessary
c) easier than one would think (for the first five minutes)
d) all of the above
2) To get to the airport, my brother and I took:
a) a taxi
b) the train
c) a walk through a long, long tunnel
d) all of the above
3) At the airport, we:
a) wandered about looking for Iberia
b) gulped down breakfast
c) wandered about looking for the check-point
d) all of the above
4) Hugging my brother goodbye, I:
a) squeezed him tight
b) wished I didn't have to let go
c) held back tears
d) all of the above
Wandering back to
agentsands, I found a lovely bit of news regarding possible OUaTiM Sands-centric sequels. I'll let
yuna_firerose tell you how it is:
Amazingly Awesome.
So there I am, all about reading Rob Rod's Grindhouse 101 thingy - found here - when the following paragraph jumps out at me and causes a MASSIVE squee.
Emphasis added by me.
"Of course one of the questions Robert almost always gets asked whenever he’s locked in a room with a bunch of movie geeks is whether or not he’ll ever do sequels to Once Upon a Time in Mexico. He says, it’s not out of the question. It’s still something he wants to do. His plan was originally to make it the first of a trilogy of movies following Johnny Depp’s blind gunman character. Apparently he even cut fake trailers for sequels using footage from the first movie and showed it to Johnny Depp. Rodriguez says Depp was all in."
Wow. A whole trilogy - or even one more film! - focusing only on Sands. That would simply be too awesome for words, SRSLY. Shit, it even has me using netspeak. Which is awesome in its own right, y'know?
This almost compensates for the lack of JDepp-as-Crowley in the Good Omens (if there ever is such a thing).
Remember my writing how Annie Lenox's song Why needs to be a Sands icons? Behold
