I'm still jealous of the kid getting to know you guys, but i'm sure nobody would actually track him down and bother him to give exclusive details.

Ah the joys of late night TV, re-reading all your books for the bajillionth time and surfing youtube and staring at the popcorn ceiling for hours trying to fall asleep. Also its neat to find out how many keys you can hit when you bang your head against the keyboard. Yeah, insomnia sucks. *sigh* Laptop batteries suck too. My old laptop's kept dying all the time so I spent a fortune replacing them. *hugs desktop PC* ~Kia Insomniacs unite!

Wanna hear irony? Earth and Beyond was dropped by Westwood to make Sims Online, which then became EALand, which is now shutting down. Irony is thick in the skies tonight. Welp, don't worry guys, life gets better. Could probably just replace the battery, eh? Well, that’s one thing that interesting.

The whole thing *is* called the "Myst Franchise" after all. Well, if it was called “D’ni: The Motion Picture”, not as many people would know what it’s about.

I mean, Myst - The Motion Picture, and www.mystmovie.com don't exactly engender thoughts of an epic storyline sweeping across the ages and unveiling a hidden culture literally buried in our own past. Instead, what is inadvertently happening is people are associating, and thereby confusing, this website, which is a behind-the-scenes biographical account of the DEVELOPMENT of a movie SET in the realm of D'ni lore, with a movie based on a single chapter of an award winning, and thus fan supported, video game of epic and outstanding proportions. That having been said, what other way do you introduce the production of a movie, based on a script, based on a book written as a prequel to a game that came out years before? *shrugs* Simple, do what Adrian and Patrick are doing, and hope to hell that you can juggle and ride a unicycle while soaked in gasoline while the public is throwing lit matches at you. When you're done with that, take these two lads out and by them a pint or two. They deserve it! :) So, it just occurred to me, and maybe a little slower than most, that the biggest misnomer about this film is the actual name of the website and the banner at the top.
