Update in a couple of days!
I'm striving to finish off a couple of writing deadlines as well as help move the physical studio CA resides at, so for the next couple of days the site won't get updated. Hang in there, because by mid-week on there'll be loads of fresh material hitting the site, including pages for new projects. I appreciate your patience, and I guarantee if you hang in there for a few more days you won't be dissapointed.
Speaking of which, Coming Attractions will be getting a new residence in the next week. That means all mail and faxes should be forwarded on to the new place...

Oh yeah, one quick item: congrats to Matt Drudge, creator of The Drudge Report for inking a deal with Fox to host his own TV show. Drudge was the first real Internet celebrity -- breaking White House news (and innuendo) seems to draw the folks' attention. Finally, he draws a steady paycheck! Good luck to you, man.
(P.S. If you're out there, this is to the person who sent me the W.C.S. read -- cool. A page will be forthcoming...)
But, before I go...
Test screening of "Doctor Dolittle" for you!
Before I jam outta here, one of my gang attended a sneak preview of a 20th Century Fox summer film. He didn't know what the show would be until he attended the screening. 'Kidd Supreme' reports to you his thoughts on Eddie Murphy's June 26th release, Doctor Dolittle:
"Well it was a long wait in line, but overall, I would have to say it was definately worth the wait. The movie was Dr. Dolittle! I was surprised to hear that, and at the beginning a little disappointed. But my fears were ill placed as this movie was so funny. I can't stress the comedic talents of Eddie Murphy, and the animals on screen. Although this was a rough cut, and in some scenes the special effects were neglected (i.e. you could see the places where they cut Eddie Murhpy out, and pasted him next to a tiger, or what have you, or when the animals didn't move there mouths), it still stood up better than most comedies I've seen of late.
"With the voices of Chris Rock as the guinea pig, and Norm MacDonald (from SNL) as the dog, the laughter was nonstop. At one point in the film, some lady was laughing so hard, they had to stop the film, to see if she was alright. Sheesh! But anyways, the movie goes around the premise that Eddie as a young child, had the ability to talk to animals, and the animals being able to understand him, and communicate back. His father, feeling embarrased, not knowing what the do, calls in a preacher to so called 'Make the spirits leave the boy!' When Little Eddie's dog tries to protect him, the dog is sent off to the pound, and Eddie is specifically told not to talk to animals ever again. Fast forward to the adult Eddie, with a beautiful wife, and two daughters. Eddie (or Dr. Doolittle) is a physician with an ordinary life, and is in the middle of trying to get an insurance company to welcome their hospital aboard, with the possibilty of making each of the head doctors very rich.
"Anyways, later that night, while having a soda in his car, he accidentally spills it, bends over and when he looks back up, he hits a dog, and coincedently hits his head. He look outside his car to see the dog. At first he thinks he's dead, but the dog gets up, and walks off calling him a bonehead. At first, Dr. Doolittle just thinks he's hearing things. But later on in the film, animals are coming to him left and right for medical assistance. Sooner or later, his wife finds out, and has him commited to a pychiatric ward, to talk about his so called 'ability'. After a weeks time, he claims to be all better, and even tries to ignore his gift. But his heart catches up with him, and in the end, he saves a tiger's life, while at the same time, turn down the offer from the insurance company.
"At the end of the movie we see Dr. Doolittle and Norm MacDonald's character, the dog, walking down the streets, looking for more animals to help, and more animals to talk with. I can't confirm the names of the other people in the film, or who even made it because there were no beginning or ending credits. All that I'm sure of is the aformentioned people above ARE in the movie, and that it is SUPPOSED to be released THIS SUMMER by 20th Century Fox. Hopes this helps!"
