WIPs on Twitter

To avoid clogging my dA gallery with endless WIP updates, I'll be clogging up Twitter instead! :D The sketch stage of the new portrait is already on there, so check it out --> [link]

If you're not a member, you can follow the updates on the twitter widget on my main profile page - you'll find it above this Journal.


Movie Greats - Series 2 Preview

:new: Thanks to everyone for voting in the poll. Looks like Captain Jack will be the next character to be immortalised in Movie Greats 2. :dance:

Work has been nuts so unfortunately progress has been really slow. :shakefist: BUT as promised, here is the sneak preview of who's in Series 2.



More to follow... :aww:


Reverse Top 30 Movies

:party: :new: So I haven't had much time for movie-watching this month so my plan to watch all 30 films from the list is faltering. The ones crossed out have been watched. I hope to have a few more done by the end of this weekend.

To celebrate my birthday month, I will be watching my Top 30 movies in reverse order throughout March. Tomorrow's movie is Jaws - an undeniable classic that I generally watch every couple of years and one that I always enjoy.

Here's the complete list:

1. The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
2. The Crow (1994)
3. Back to the Future (1985)
4. Leon (1994)
5. Superman: The Movie (1978)
6. Labyrinth (1986)
7. Blade Runner (1982)
8. Ghostbusters (1984)
9. The Green Mile (1999)
10. Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
11. Star Wars - Episode IV: A New Hope (1977)
12. Aliens (1986)
13. Gladiator (2000)
14. American Beauty (1999)
15. The Usual Suspects (1995)
16. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
17. Jurassic Park (1993)
18. Speed (1994)
19. Pulp Fiction (1994)
20. Finding Nemo (2003)
21. Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987)
22. Swingers (1996)
23. The Prestige (2006)
24. Se7en (1995)
25. This Is Spinal Tap (1984)
26. Heat (1995)
27. The Shining (1980)
28. The Fountain (2006)
29. The Mist (2007)
30. Jaws (1975)

I'm excited about revisiting all those movies again, some of which I haven't watched for a while. :excited:

I have to say that I love your top 30 list... and I have seen them all :). Great mix of fun, adventure and a little fear sprinkled about. Makes me want to make a top 30 list and get to watching. This would be a great way to have family movie night with my older two kids and the younger one on some nights even.

This is why I love reading journals here on dA ... always great ideas.

The only way creativity is wasted is if it is not used. There are no rights or wrongs. There are no imperfections, no limits, no rules. One must simply use the talents one has to the utmost to be a success.
:iconapsolut:
oh that 23. The Prestige (2006) is excelent... but i think the prestige and the illusionist is the best movies from 2000...`till now...
