DIARY :: Saturday, June 12, 2010 :: A Fine, Fine Start http://is.gd/dVfvy (via @dustinharbin) – Awwwww.
We start shooting a new short film this very weekend at a local D.C. hotel. Expect twitpics.
Although the weakest part of True Blood continues to be the two leads. Great stuff going on around them, but I dread their scenes together.
Man – True Blood’s season 2 was amazing up until that last hour, which felt like a set up for season 3. Still – season 2? Pretty strong.
Gracious! The 2nd season of True Blood is about to set my TV on fire. Such an improvement on season 1.
Person: “The earth just quaked. What was that?!?” 911 Operator: “Um… an earthquake?” #’10MDquake
K and I were like “Whoa. I think that was an earthquake!” Then went back to sleep. Others called 911, apparently. #’10MDquake
Dudes – we had an 3.6 magnitude earthquake in MD last night. That junk was crazy. #andkindascary

Okay, Media Composer does have some good features that FCP doesn’t. Also, AVID got me a working copy of MC. #editingdetente
Oh cool – that BP oil spill? It also coulda just maybe triggered doomsday -http://tinyurl.com/33n88ql (via @travisbeacham)
In fact, for offline editing, it’s hard to think of anything FCP doesn’t do 100x better than Avid. #inflammatoryeditingcallout
Dear Avid – peeps hate on Final Cut, but I install MC and its nothing but bugs. Your new name: Aphid. Heh heh. #intelligentputdowns
‘Airbender’ made $70m already? Sorry, critics. You did have some great put downs though! Quick, let’s pile on Predators!
Wondering how M. Night keeps making movies after ‘The Happening’? Only one movie since ‘Sixth Sense’ didn’t make back 3x its budget.
Note to romantic types – ‘Shutter Island’ turns out to be an EXTRAORDINARILY poor choice for date night. Pass it on.
Dear Rubicon – your sneak preview was kind of boring, but if I take a chance on you, are you gonna ‘Lost’ me? Don’t ‘Lost’ me, Rubicon.
New parents – be sure to never look at your phone whilst w/ your child, lest the media dub you neglectful.
On June 29th, History Channel releases “The Million Dollar Challenge” on DVD, a show I edited years ago. Only $23!!! http://amzn.to/9JRsoP
