Thanks to FlanInfo on Twitter, news that Good Day For It will be shown in Los Angeles in July.
 
"[INFO] Good Day For It #GDFI to be released in LA theatres on July 22 http://bit.ly/nlnOHD FB page http://on.fb.me/rhqaG4"

There's the press release details and even a new Facebook page for the movie.

So glad it's getting a bit of exposure. And that it didn't open this weekend when the DREADED CARMAGEDDON happens in SoCal.



A little bit of honesty re SGU

From Brian J Smith, who was asked about SGU's demise:

The economics fell through and the ratings sucked big time. You can point fingers and you can blame whoever you want, but the ratings were not there. Stargate Universe was one of the most expensive TV series to shoot on television, period. There are shows out there that get 20 million viewers a night that shoot for a fraction of what it cost for us to make a single episode of our show. It makes no sense to be spending that kind of money on a show.

Poor Joe,
He gets whumped as much as Sheppard did, it seems. From a new interview:

And from the sound of it, Flanigan gets 'whacked around a good bit" in real life, too.

"I sit here talking to you with a fully separated AC joint - third degree AC separation, a semi-chopped off finger, and it’s all from just nonsensical stuff like mountain biking. And, I’m actually sitting at the base of Aspen Mountain as we speak trying to figure out if I’m going to go cross-country skiing, snowboarding, or just down-hilling. I live for it. And that’s why I think I like action/adventures, because I just need to physicalize things, and it’s tough for me to be inside doing domestic-like acting."

also, about SGA:

"As you know, the franchise has been summarily closed.  That doesn’t mean that’s the end of the franchise by any stretch of the imagination, especially if I have my druthers, I’ll find a way to bring it back. I think the fans deserve to see some closure or at least some type of continuation. I think that - and especially in regards to my show, it was just unceremoniously closed and we need to do something about it."

Another interview just posted here (from the same conference call, I believe):
http://articles.pazsaz.com/fplanettr.html
Where he says he doesn't think CoP is going to be made into a series. Just finished this one, it's very interesting. Joe said if he had been able to do CoP he would have been able to direct.

Another Ferocious Review

In before LJ crashes again:

http://tvovermind.zap2it.com/tv-news/ferocious-planet/53895


"B-movie staple John Rhys-Davies briefly brings his British (um... southern) accent and holier than thou attitude to Ferocious Planet as an American Senator with an interest in otherworld dimensions in Saturday's Syfy classic-in-the-making.  Sharing the screen as the reluctant, ornery and hotter than hell hero is Joe Flanigan. It's sure good to see him back in the realm of science fiction, where he fits so gloriously well."

"Most of all, I like Joe Flanigan and watching him in action just proves he needs to be helming his own series again. Syfy, please take note.  To experience the thrills of another dimension, tune into Syfy this Saturday at 9:00 pm Eastern. You won't be sorry!"


Review of Ferocious Planet

Don't poke The Alien

OK, posting before LJ goes down again...
DreadCentral.com has a nice review of Joe Flanigan's movie Ferocious Planet here:
http://www.dreadcentral.com/reviews/ferocious-planet-syfy-2011

"Most genre fans have a love/hate relationship with SyFy Channel films, I suspect. While most of us enjoy ninety-minutes of watching a bear-shark-a-cuda chase down unsuspecting victims on a Friday or Saturday Night, there’s no denying a good portion of SyFy original programming simply isn’t worth being subjected to. In fact, some of it is downright unwatchable. Most of the fare coming off like Girls Gone Wild videos with thin genre plot lines to justify being on the network.

But, every once in a while a SyFy Original comes along that’s actually well written, well crafted, and it gives you hope that, perhaps, more such films will follow, which is why we keep watching.

Ferocious Planet is one of those films."
 
and:

"Overseeing security during the demonstration is Colonel Sam Synn (played by Joe Flannigan of SyFy’s Stargate: Atlantis and Warehouse 13). Synn’s a burned out soldier with a checkered past and all he wants to do is get through this babysitting gig so he can get busy with retirement and spend the rest of his days on his boat. "

Can't wait till Saturday!
