Musical Variations
Speaking of original ideas for films, here's something I can really appreciate. Much like the Blair Witch Project, this story is completely concocted with the intention of deceiving the public. A few of you may have heard this, and if not, you may have heard some of the songs. They (Hollywoodish people) invented a character named Chris Gaines who is supposed to have been a pop singer from the early 80s up through a few years ago. They got Garth Brooks to sing a whole bunch of songs that this guy was going to have allegedly written and recorded. They varied the tone of the song to sound like the time period in which it was supposed to have been recorded and varied the subject matter to match up with what they are going to say was happening in his life at the time. "They" are planning on releasing a bunch of songs out on the radio scattered around throughout the next year and hopefully, the public will start to get a rapport with this fellow. Maybe they'll get the DJs to play up his character and tell stories about him or something. About a year from now, they're going to start making a movie which is going to basically be an autobiography of this Chris Gaines character. Personally, I love the idea. I can't think of anything that was done this creatively in a long time that spanned the medias like this. I just hope they don't fuck it up, which is always a possibility...
