great big sea news, sort of!

Okay... Just when I thought I was going to be totally safe in ignoring the stupid Ridley Scott "Robin Hood"... they announce Alan Doyle from Great Big Sea (totally awesome folk/rock band from Newfoundland) as one of the minor characters. As a minstrel, no less! ♥ Go Alan!

This doesn't mean the movie won't still be painful, but it means I will probably have to see the damned thing to support his first movie gig. Or, at the very least buy the soundtrack, because they wouldn't bother to hire an actual singer as a minstrel unless they were going to let him sing!

...Now I just have to hope his part doesn't end up on the cutting room floor, the poor dear. ♥

Awesome! 8D Whatever, I'm going to see that movie, probably enjoy its sheer monumental amounts of stupid and eat more popcorn than I should.

And he's Alan a Dale! That's not minor in my book.

How many times do you think they'll slip up on set and call him Alan a Doyle?

[rivendellrose.livejournal.com]

Hopefully they'll just call him Alan. Safer either way. ;)

Enough to make a whole blooper real full. XD

Sounds like a plan to me!

True, true... but we all know what awful things the cutting room can do to a movie, and it sure ain't Russell Crowe who'll get his lines cut if they run a bit over. :P

I always have good plans~

M'eh. I seem to hate Russell Crowe less than you do. XP Honestly, I really don't care one way or another about him. As far as I can tell, though, Ridley Soctt does have a crush on the man.
