Showing Hollywood How Its Done – #4

  • Post author:

Okay, new plan. Since there isn’t much of a chance for people to suggest directions for the next round, as they wouldn’t know what the current choice is going to be (does that even make sense…), from now on I’m going to stagger the results and the new poll.

So today I close the poll and post the results and you can now make suggestions for the next round via the comments section. Then on Tuesday the new poll goes up. From next week it will be poll results in the morning and new poll that night, but today we’re doing a big stagger cos I just realized that my new bunch of options are too long for the poll parameters. Whoops.

Here’s where we are now:

A young woman wakes up next to nobody. All too aware of this fact, she hugs her pillow. Eventually she gets up and dispassionately goes through her morning routine.

Dazza And Matt’s Fav NP.COMics

  • Post author:

You may have noticed that the last comic was the 50th that Matt and I have done together. I thought it would be nice to look back at the output and to pick my favourites. I asked Matt to do the same and so we have this update for you.

In the comments section you can let me know which ones you liked. I’m going to put 10-12 up for a poll next week so I need to try and gauge which strips are the most popular.

Here are my 10 favourites, in the order they appeared.

#11 – Puff Puff Die – You probably know that a pet annoyance of mine are fans that think Natalie is perfect but when faced with an imperfection that they disagree with, they totally lose their shit. Think we nailed this and I remember being really proud of it at the time. (more…)

New Poll + Premiere Look Results

  • Post author:

Prior to TIFF, Love and Other Impossible Pursuits was a bit of an unknown quantity. We did a poll in August about anticipation levels for the film and the winning option was “I’m going to need to see reviews or a trailer first”. Then when we asked for predictions as to how the film would be received at TIFF, almost half of you thought it would get “more good than bad” reviews, which is probably how it turned out.

Garcy, The Hollywood Reporter, LA Times and Variety were all very positive. That’s not to say it was all positive as Berardinelli and Hitflix would attest.

Now that we know a lot more about the film, I thought we could do another barometer on the expectation levels.

LOIP anticipation poll

As for the last poll results, you can view them after the jump. Most of you loved her TIFF premiere appearance. Personally, I was a bit mixed on it at first but found it all looked so much better in videos of the event. Wasn’t quite as overpowering as it looked in pics. (more…)
