movie news
First of all, Wales was great. Details will be posted after I´m caught up with my paper journal.
There´s been more casting done for The Dark is Rising . Knee-jerk reaction: They cast Christopher Eccleston as the Black Rider ?!?! Having watched a season of Doctor Who , I can´t at all imagine him as the long red-haired agent of the Dark. I might not be able to see this movie.
(No opinions yet on Merriman and Will, as I haven´t seen any of their movies.)

As a friend of mine said regarding the casting of Lusifer in the movie "Constantine":
"Note to DC/Vertigo, if you want to use a character from the existing universe, make sure the character looks like Vertigo standard. I didn't need a sweaty, shifty looking Italian fatass playing a part I traditionally reserve for a European bishounen."
I guess that's fair. Online has its own grammar. I suspect linguists will clue in to this fact, oh, sometime in the 23rd century. Maybe 23th. They still haven't accepted use of "their" as a gender-neutral non-possessive pronoun, after all.
