Yesterday's Audition...

Had an audition for a Nicklelodeon movie called "Last Day Of Summer" yesterday that I feel went quite well. However, I was going up against some name actors...I saw Robert Rusler (Weird Science, Shag, Nightmare On Elm Street 2), who I know from my days at Blockbuster (I said a quick "hi" to him and reminded him who I was, he was coming in and I was leaving so I left it at that) and also Gabrielle Carteris (Beverly Hills, 90210) was there reading for my wife/mom role, so it looks like I'm moving up in the world (if you don't know who these actors are I put their pictures below)...the casting director was Harriet Greenspan, I read the part once and she said "Perfect". I overheard her talking to Gabrielle and she said they just tape all the auditions, then put it online for the producers to watch so it's now in the hands of the powers that be...wish me luck and pray for me if you do any praying...

Superman Sucks!!

Went to see Superman Wednesday night (in IMAX 3-D, nonetheless, where I paid $14.25 for my ticket), and boy, it sure did suck...nothing you haven't seen before, great actors that were wasted on this movie (in particular, Parker Posey, whose work I always enjoy, was just given nothing to do), hardly any great comic moments in this movie (no funny sidekick thugs for Lex Luthor), and the 3-D was not the whole way through the movie (there was a cue on screen for when to put the glasses on, and when to take them off), which was a pain because I kept changing from 3-D glasses back to prescription. After all the years of time spent trying to get this project in the air (pun intended), it was just a great big letdown...I think the studio squashed Brian Singer's creativity cuz I didn't see any of his trademark flair or humor in this movie...do yourself a favor, stay home and rent the original Superman instead...that's my opinion, and I'm sticking to it!!!

Two Auditions Yesterday, And Booked One!!

I went on two auditions yesterday, and have already booked one of them, it shoots tomorrow...it's a video for Patrick Hall, some cat that was on American Idol (I don't know, I've only seen the show a couple times)...thus it is a parody of American Idol and guess who's playing the Simon Cowell role...yep, yours truly...wish me luck, I'll bring my trusty video camera and see what kind of footage and pics I can get to post on my blog!!!

L.A. Forensics...

If you watch closely you might catch me (small role) on "L.A. Forensics" tonight on Court TV at 8pm, and the episode will repeat again at midnight...I also did another series for this company called "North Mission Road" about the death of George Reeves (Superman, how timely is that???). I had a co-starring role in that...an actor friend of mine played the George Reeves role...more to come on that soon...
