Attention all you hoser fans in
the Great White North. (For
those of you who don't know, that's anyone above the Mason/Dixon
Line) The Projectalan
website is going on a little vacation break for a couple
weeks. I'll be back in the new year with tons of movie
reviews, Christmas present reports, and our newest most popular
feature: The Wide World of News. Have a happy holiday
season!
Here's one more very special holiday
edition of The News.

October 14th 2002, a day
that will one day no doubt soon become a National Holiday! You
may have instantly noticed but if you didn't, The Projectalan
Website is now pop-up and banner ad free! Yes, loyal reader(s)
I actually paid money to amuse you with my stupid
website.
In the coming months I will now be able to expand the scope of this
site to include all kinds of goodies I've never been able to force
upon you before!
Of course, with great power comes great responsibility and since I
can hardly be responsible for everything, I have a favor to
ask. One of the reasons I upgraded the site was because a
number of photos were recently corrupted. I searched out and
replaced as many as I could find but there may be more. If you
come across a place where a photo should be or a caption without a
picture please contact me by clicking the e-mail link on the left of
this page. Just tell me what page it is and I'll fix it.
Deal? Good. O.K. That's all for now. Enjoy
the new and soon to be improved site!

When I figured out my new scanner
last weekend I went a little crazy and scanned way too many
pictures. It's taken me all week to edit the color and crop
them into the web site. The following links below will take
you to the first randomly selected new pictures. If you don't
have a cable or dsl internet connection this may take a while.

If you're like me, you've
probably thought about what it would be like if your best friend
from elementary school and your best friend from high school were
with you when you started 9th grade. Assuming that a feature
film biography of my life is in development at some major studio,
I've taken the liberty of scouting some young talented teenagers to
play Bendera
Howard, me and Chuck Wood.
9.14.2
I hooked up my cool new scanner
today so I'll start doing a huge expansion of the photo section in
the coming weeks. There are also some new movies at the
theatre that I'm dying to see. Stay tuned!

Holly's apartment hunt is going
well, but we are having some trouble finding a place that will be
available on the planned date of our exodus, therefore I cannot say
with certainty that we'll be leaving as soon as I'd hoped. We
should have an idea by the end of the week. I'll keep ya
posted!

Reader mail:
Dear Alan,
I enjoy your movie reviews, but why would you give a stupid movie
like Blade 2 five stars? Do you really think Blade 2 is as
good as The Godfather or Citizen Kane? Are you insane?
-Chuck
Dear Readers,
Please don't go see or rent a movie based entirely on my
review. That would be crazy. You would all be horrified
if you knew how many truly bad movies I love. If I really
really like a movie then it gets 5 stars. If I really hate a
movie, then I probably won't even bother to review it. (unless
I hate it so much that I feel the need to for you to share in my disappointment)
The most important thing to remember when reading my reviews is that
this is coming from a guy whose all-time favorite movie ever is Independence
Day.
