New Hero Alert

I try not to re-blog everything William Beckett posts in spite of his exquisite SNMC selections and fine taste in YouTube phenomena, but this one had to be shared.

THE HUNT FOR GOLLUM - FULL Trailer 1 from Independent Online Cinema on Vimeo.

I guess some fans of LOTR decided to continue the story. The movie's completely nonprofit and not affiliated with Tolkien or the original movie trilogy in any way. It looks really fantastic. Now get this: it only cost $4500 to make!

In other news, Boyfriend and his half-sister Ghostbait were here today, and it was every bit as epic as I'd anticipated. No douche-dodging, much to Boyfriend's dismay (for him it would've been more along the lines of douche-decking, and I know he's been wanting to deck Angry Frodo for a while XD). Jenniferin and I only played two rounds of that earlier, and they weren't even very thrilling rounds. We DID play frisbee for a long time though! No ultimate, but it was still good times. I ALMOST killed Ghostbait with the frisbee - literally missed by a couple of inches - but thank goodness, no actual injuries were sustained.

Tomorrow is the walk for hunger. I'm $45 short of my fundraising goal, $150, so if you can find it in your heart and in your wallet, it's still not too late to donate! I will appreciate your prayers as much as your dollars; 20 miles is a freaking long way to walk! Schneckleface just reminded me that when I finished last year's walk, I swore I would never EVER do it again. Shooooooot.
