Everyone Should Be A NEW MAN

Rest In Peace, Peter Boyle

Actor Peter Boyle has passed away. He was 71.
I loved watching him craft his work, both on the Big Screen as well as the Little Screen.
He was ALWAYS entertaining, no matter what role he played.
Our lives are better having seen him doing what he loved to do: ACT.
Some of my personal favorites were his role as Lucy's father-in-law-to-be in "While You Were Sleeping", and as "Clyde Bruckman" on an episode of "The X-Files".
Peter Boyle was a former Roman Catholic monk.
He leaves behind a wife and two children.

I hope to someday see him as a Christian brother.

This Just In...

... Peter Jackson may still have the opportunity to direct the "Hobbit" film after all!

Next year, the rights to the "Hobbit" revert back to the previous owners, who have stated publicly that Peter Jackson is their choice to make the film.

Looks like Newline has goofed up in their quest to be the greediest film company...

Bad News: Peter Jackson Won't Make The Hobbit

Peter Jackson will not be allowed to make the Hobbit movie.

This is what happens when greed takes over the better part of discretion. Who owes who whatever is not the issue... the issue is that there won't be another more qualified film-maker to produce the Hobbit.

At least, maybe Peter Jackson can work out some details with the Edgar Rice Burroughs people to do a Tarzan movie that does the books justice. Or even a John Carter movie...

Nah... I must be dreaming.
