Throwing a Gookie in the middle of it probably summarized how Barb and I felt about that particular contribution to the totality o human knowledge.The Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04322048779156560794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441882467431112276.post-11778050774889107802009-02-22T06:09:00.000-08:002009-02-22T06:09:00.000-08:00We kinda knew from the beginning what would probab...We kinda knew from the beginning what would probably work. In our professional worlds, to this day, the point is to make choices that are "excellent" (within the appropriate terms of excellence for the project at hand) and consistent. That means we had to understand why the choices were "excellent" and consistent; and to get there we had to understand Da Rules.<BR/><BR/>So we could break them.<BR/><BR/>We intended to do more cut-ins than we did; and it was logistically too difficult to coordinate everything and everyone so we could do them consistently well and prep the next bit. By the time we hit our stride, we probably could have gone back to the cut-ins; but they seemed cheap laffs when the metajoke games were afoot.The Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04322048779156560794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441882467431112276.post-46283137249067853152009-02-21T22:08:00.000-08:002009-02-21T22:08:00.000-08:00It's quite interesting to see the backstory, indee...It's quite interesting to see the backstory, indeed. <BR/><BR/>For some reason, this post sparked a memory I'd forgotten for a while, which was one of the bigger laughs I got from the early shows. I think it was during the second movie... wasn't that The Sentinel? When all the undead were coming out of the gate of hell in that woman's apartment, and suddenly it cut to Millie for a second doing a cross eyed googly face. Big laffs, that was.Kirky Spockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00033052126950168161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441882467431112276.post-73529169012973341592009-02-21T20:38:00.000-08:002009-02-21T20:38:00.000-08:00I am totally enjoying the story of Millie!I am totally enjoying the story of Millie!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15334812243182354729noreply@blogger.com
