High Tide Update

As you may have read in the comments for this post, I was made aware of a director willing to tackle the great think piece that is High Tide. Recognizing the quality of my work, though not the content of my character, he agreed to make this work. However, I was made aware through courier that all of my hide tide of hopes would be helplessly dashed against the rocks. I will print the letter in its entirety.

Dear Mrs. This Girl,
I regret to inform you that I must opt out of directing your brilliant film about the certainly upcoming earthquakes that lead to whales being on the top of the food chain.
Though I am a fan of your work, I have been offered the chance to write, direct, and co-star in a similar film and do not wish to be typecast.
It is called "Killah Whales" and it's by the good people at Paramount, so it has a HUGE budget. In the film, a melting glacier causes the ocean to rise and flood an experimental nuclear facility during whale mating season. The result is a school of mutated whales that are no longer forced to reside in the ocean and have a blood lust against humanity. Some have legs but the deadliest is a Blue Whale who mutated wings and flys around like a dragon eating people and drowning whole towns in plankton rich ocean water. The only hope for humanity is a brilliant scientist (Will Smith) who now teaches math to inner city school kids after giving up on science after NASA used his work against his will to eliminate a race of Aliens living on the dark side of the moon. Can the only people that know the whale's secret, a lowly Coast Guard worker (Dennis Quaid) and his homosexual life partner (Ice Cube) convince the scientist to help? KILLAH WHALES: THIS SUMMER WE'RE THE ENDANGERED SPECIES.
Clearly I cannot turn this wonderful project down.
Best of Luck,

Great minds are thinking alike. Of course, I am terribly devastated that I will not get to make my movie, having no budget, no director, no actors, and no talent for special effects. I could have artful drawings for you to see, but I am not technologically advanced enough to show them to you. Maybe my next movie idea, a mocumentary of the Surreal Life, will come to fruition.

High Tide

We watched 10.5, a made for TV movie about The Big One... errrr, well, how a series of faults, deeper than can be recorded, trigger earthquakes that could be big enough to sever the entire left coast from the rest of the united states while a crack group of seismologist go about trying to prevent The Big One. The good things? Bo Duke John Schneider. The bad things? Oh, the writing, the acting, the storyline, the fact that they declared Marshal Law (as opposed to martial law) as written on newscasts detailing the tragedies of the quakes, etc. This movies has inspired my own movie idea, co-created with my husband.

High Tide:
When Jupiter is smashed by the hand of God, pieces of it crash into the moon, knocking it slightly off course, causing the tides to come careening into large cities. Whales move to the top of the food chain and this new threat must be tackled by a crack group of marine biologist even as they figure out ways to live under water during half the day. The cast will include Chevy Chase, since he has some dealings with land water creatures who are at the top of the food chain and, of course, John Schneider. The movie is in development now as we continue to see what other ridiculous extremes we can take this movie to.

This is what happens when you don't have anything to do on a Saturday but be lazy and watch bad made for tv movies.
