Two Weeks Ago Last Week


Friday,
October 8
One item of interest on the Red Planet front, this time from Dark Horizons.com.
Red Planet: Val Kilmer, Terence Stamp, Benjamin Bratt and the rest of the cast and crew have been doing it tough with a week-long night shoot at a quarry just outside Sydney. According to the Sydney Morning Herald the crew spent two weeks in Jordan and three weeks in Coober Pedy shooting exteriors before this quarry stint. Its followed by another nine weeks of shooting around the FOX Studios complex in eastern Sydney. One of the challenges of filming in the outback town of Coober Pedy was the flies which got annoying when you're pretending to be filming on a lifeless planet.

One item of note from the Star Trek.com web-site about an upcoming episode of VOYAGER.
Robert Picardo ("The Doctor" on Star Trek: Voyager) who recently directed an episode of Star Trek: Voyager with "eerie" similarities had this to say about the tragic event, "I was struck by the similarity between the loss of Mars Atmospheric Observer and the upcoming Voyager episode 'One Small Step' which I directed. In this moving story, the crew unravels the mystery of the disappearance of the command module from a fictional mission in the early 21st century. Thankfully, the disappearance of the Mars Atmospheric Observe involved no loss of life, let's hope the lessons learned will ensure the success of the upcoming Polar Lander in early December."

One little item of note out of Dark Horizons.com. FYI, this plot synopses closely follows the version of the script that I read. (Spoiler: That intelligent life on Mars that "once existed" abandoned the planet after a cataclysmic asteroid strike on the planet.


Mission to Mars: When an eruption from a dome-shaped object disables a crew of astronauts that have set up a base camp on Mars, another team if astronauts journey there in an effort to rescue the crew's leader, and once on the planet, find evidence that intelligent life once existed.

The full trailer for the movie SLEEPY HOLLOW was released online last weekend. Interestingly enough, a GIGANTIC, 276x480, trailer was also released with the normal, small, trailers.

The only problem here is that it's almost 20 megs, but well worth the wait.
