Mutants or Monsters???? What's better??.....FIGHT!!!!!

Ok. This is the current situation........The Treatment for ICE has hit the 'skids'!! My fellow collaborators and I are in a disagreement..... MUTANTS or MONSTER......?? Which of these would you prefer to be roaming around our hero's world?? Personally, I think the Human-Mutant creatures make more sense......as they could have 'evolved' or even 'devolved' into some scavenging creatures, that hunt in packs, and lurk in the darkest of corners. Thus creating more suspense and tension in the movie. The other two (aka Judas's) believe a giant, lone, barely seen, in-explicable, creature should be giving our hero grief. I feel THIS option loses some of the claustrophobic tension the mutants could inject. Lets face it.....if its a Giant Thing......you can SEE IT......you can AVOID IT!!! Thoughts and Comments, please!! However, as it's a Democracy.....I am OVERULED......They win 2-1. Guess the majority aint always right!!!! haaaaaaa. I shall continue to crack on with the Treatment......Then the Script......I am, afterall, enjoying the journey. Apparently we are looking at contacts in Europe to fund the project. Filming in Sweden would be wonderful, as it's the perfect setting. So........fingers, toes, arms, legs, eyes, wires, and hot buns ALL CROSSED!!!!

ICE to see you, to see you ICE.......

Again with the Strictly-Come-Dancing-On-ICE-Celebrity-TV-Garbage-Analogies.......WHY!!??

Anyway......The Treatment is coming along a TREAT! If anything it's maybe a bit too indepth, but I'm sure that will only help make the Script easier to write in the long run.

I apologise to KEL for paying more attention to my Laptop's hypnotic keypad, than her fine self over the last few nights, but I just can't help myself...

Those buttons beckon......

And before you know it, I'm skipping hand in hand with my twisted imagination, through the realms of fantasy and flashback......until the incredible, indescribable, inconceivable, incomprehensible CLIMAX 'fades out', and the credits roll.....

So who else is gunna join me in this ICY PATH to Movieville.....Kel, you coming??

ICE...ICE...BABY!!!

No, don't worry. You haven't stumbled onto the Vanilla Ice Appreciation Society blog. It's just ME, informing you all of my latest Screenplay.

It's called ICE. It's a post apocalyptic sci-fi thriller. It's low budget, and high concept. And it's my 1st 'official' collaboration with some fellow scribes.

Cant say too much at present.....as it's very early days......but a Treatment is on its way.

New Me.....New Blog.....

Ok, I'll keep this 'short and sweet' - a bit like myself!!

There's been a hell of a lot of changes in the last 2 years.....Relationships ended, New Ones begun, Houses bought, Waistlines expanded, Alcohol consumed, Livers pickled........

But I'm back now.....

........Watch this space!! :-)
