T-Minus 16 Days
Well.. 16 days til AKON! Too bad I didn’t workout or anything. I injured my left leg (shin area) and have to tread lightly, else it hurts like a biotch. Grrrr.. just now working on my “helmet” for Fran.. and I still have a ways to go. Its made out of wire and bead, not the typical paper mache, hammered metal, or craft foam. Its not meant to be spot on – just a rendition of it, just like my dress is also going to be a rendition. Hey, gotta keep it PG for the kids!! Gonna start working on my dress soon, but as its looking, might be a rush job, as usual. I never learn. >_<
Anyhoo, put on my wig for the first time today – sneak peek anyone?! 
Sorry my face is kinda shiny and I have the day’s leftover makeup on.. didn’t think I should get made up anyway.. 1) it’s 11PM 2) gotta keep it surprising at akon, yeah? Heheehehe… once I’m done with helmet, I *might* post a pic 
. Unfortunately, I don’t think I will be making most of her armor either. I’m such a bad Fran. BUT I should be making her ears sometime this week/end. 
Shhh.. not sure what secret you're supposed to be keeping but let's be quiet anyway, eh?
I always seem to have the wrong skin tone. When I should be pale, I’m tan and vice versa. Hmm.. oh well!! Drew has the room.. I’m gonna be sharing a bed with Jen and Josh, though I won’t take much space.. I can foresee myself curled up into a ball in the corner, hiding under the blankies. Hehe. Hrmm what else… I’ll be getting there after my class finishes so.. its gonna be a long walk under the hot hot sun.. cuz parking is not going to be pretty. And… I will provide updates some more later. Getting tired now though I have no right to be!! XD
WISH ME LUCK ON THE REST OF MY COSTUUUUUME~
Upcoming Snow White Films
One word: Ehhh. First off, I need to complain: WHAT THE DEUCE MAN! I’M writing (been working on it for a LONG time now) a Snow White story with a fantasy angle (and I’ve had a couple people review my work and it is definitely new and fresh) and what does Hollywood do? They try launching off THREE Snow White films. FUCK. Bad timing on my part. Sigh.
Julia Roberts
Lily Collins
Film One: Brothers Grimm Snow White. Julia Roberts is cast as the Evil Queen; Lily Collins is Snow White; and Armie Hammer is Prince Charming. So far… I can see this happening. Julia Roberts is a beautiful woman (aging) but still beautiful. Lily Collins is young, fresh, and perky. Armie Hammer is a stud. So this has the makings of your classic fairytale – except if it is a Brothers Grimm angle, it can’t be as kid friendly as everyone thinks right? Either way, it will probably go along the lines of the classic storyline.
Kristen Stewart
Charlize Theron
Film Two: Snow White and the Huntsman. Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen; Kristen Stewart as Snow White; and as of right this moment, Chris Hemsworth has just been offered the role of the Huntsman. Charlize as the Queen is brilliant. One of the most beautiful women I’ve seen onscreen. Perfect. Kristen as Snow White? Ehhhhhhh NO. I don’t see her beauty overshadowing Charlize’s anytime soon (or ever) and her dour expression is not one I expect of Ms Snow White. I understand it is supposed to be a darker film and SW needs to be a bit of a badass but yet again – NO. Chris as the Huntsman is a viable option – he is tough and gritty. But since Hugh Jackman and Viggo Mortensen both vetoed this… I dunno guys. I about shrieked and banged my computer when I found out KS had been cast.
Film Three: Snow White and Seven. Still in development. THIS film is the one I have the most interest in actually. Instead of Seven Dwarfs, they’re supposed to be Shaolin monks! Way cool right? (hahaha) This film has had trouble getting backing or being sold to a certain studio I think, not sure of the particulars but I guess it is because it is a bit far out for the American audience to grasp. I grew up with wuxia films and the thought of seven Shaolin monks kicking ass onscreen gets me giddy. Undoubtedly, Snow White is going to be Caucasian but anyone else think this is the perfect opportunity to cast an unknown Asian female? NOT THAT HOLLYWOOD WILL. C’mon… see what they’re doing to Akira? Tsk tsk…
In summary… this is oversaturation of the market. Maybe I’ll see film one, probably glance at the trailer for film two, and who knows when film three is being made. So the moral of the story is: BUY MY BOOK WHEN IT GETS PUBLISHED!! (I sure do hope it gets picked up 
)
Yours Truly,
