Guys:
Okay, I will answer a few questions from all the comments regarding
the prequel.
I want to give you folks the basic premise (one that has yet to be approved
by ANYBODY by the way, so I'd potentially be pissing in the stew pot) but I've
got to give things a week or so to level out. One little mystery I will floodlight
for you is the indentity of the aforementioned 'Nigerians' which are Tunde
and Olu, my long suffering assistants. A couple of O.C. kids and esteemed
Chapman grads. I call them 'The Assassins' because if you see them in person,
Tunde is about 6'5 worth of menace and Olu at 6'1, tears phonebooks in half.
In spite of fearsome physical appearance you couldn't get nicer, more talented
guys. I have to replace them now as they head off to direct and write the prequel
respectively and it will likely be a painful and protracted goodbye.
Perhaps I will have them guest on the blog and they can answer questions about
this thing as it ramps up. Universal closed the deals on friday and I got an outline
from the guys the same day. It's great. I wish I could divulge all.
I like the idea about giving some walk-on roles to our blog loyalists. Jeffrey
Wright has this idea and it ain't half bad. (BTW, Jeffrey, nice reader mail in SACTOWN,
it was my idea man, I'm a chump, what can I say?)
Okay guys. Updates daily from here on out.
JC
