I'm so busy buying old music that I've slacked on new stuff a bit:)...**I'm into Gospel, Reggae, Go-Go and Jazz as well**
This is a hard one but here goes...Thin Line Between Love and Hate, Con-Air, Out of Time, Gothika, Money Talks, Cape Fear, Silver Bullet, Fear, The Howling, The Ink-Well, Sprung, Poetic Justice, Ghost, Dirty Dancing, Adventures In Babysitting, Pretty Woman, I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, any Bruce Lee movie, Indiana Jones, King Solomon Mines, Romancing The Stone, Jewel of the Nile, Gremlins, Face-Off, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Legally Blonde I/II, Wild Things, Kiss The Girls, Rambo (I named my German Shepherd after him - childhood pet),You Got Served, Class Act, House Party Trilogy, Final Destination I/II, Player’s Club, Vampire In Brooklyn, Coming 2 America, Beverly Hills Cop Trilogy, Bad Boys I/II,...that’s it..I have to stop somewhere!...I could go on! :)
Television
WOO....where do I begin? Lifetime....court shows....reality tv.....cartoons (old stuff like looney toons....tom and jerry...scooby doo...etc..)....I'm also really into Forensic Files, CSI, FINE Network, HGTV, DHC, TLC, FOOD NETWORK, DIY NETWORK.....SNAPPED on OXYGEN....very interesting stuff. Another interesting late night show is TALK SEX w/Sue Johanson....seriously, it's very interesting. Now, as for comedies, I still watch old shows (LIVING SINGLE, MARTIN, GOOD TIMES, etc.) My fave most recent reality shows are RUN'S HOUSE & I MARRIED A BALLER (Eddie & Taj Geoge)....I'm really looking forward to another run of I MARRIED A BALLER.
Books
Within the past few years, I've been into informative books to help me with marketing my scripts once they're completed. I'm just now learning standard screenplay format so whenever I'm in the library now, I'm researching film...past/present and whatever I need to research on a particular topic dealing with my concepts.
Heroes
My #1 hero is my LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. Anyone else who has inspired me comes after him. My parents gave me life through Christ which puts them at 2nd place. Coming in at a strong 3rd place is...The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr....he was surely a hero not only for my race of people but for the entire nation. He made me believe that one person can make a difference. Of course many more people have touched my life as well.

I haven't completed any projects as of yet. While having many potential film projects in the concept stage, I finally figured out which one I want to devote to and complete first.
05/11/09 - Okay so...this page is so SUPER OUTDATED....it's ridiculous.....lol....I must be....I will be back to spruce it up a bit in the very near future!!!!
12/30/07 - I gotta say HAPPY NEW YEAR early because I'll be working on New Year's Eve and New Year's so I guess that's not so bad. I'll be ringing in the New Year making money so if I look at it that way....maybe that'll help my mood a little. Honestly, I'll just be grateful to still be alive...there's still one more day left in the year and so many people won't make it to 2008. With that in mind, I will end this and look forward to posting in 2008!:)
To anyone who doesn't have FACEOFF by Omarion and Bow Wow....come from under them rocks ya'll.....if grown and sexy is what u're lookin' for.....THEY GOT IT!!!! FACEOFF debuted @ #1 on Billboard's Rap Chart and #2 on the R&B chart.....that makes 3 #1 consecutive albums for O after B2K....now that's GRAND:)
Who I'd like to meet: Honestly, this list could be extremely long but I will keep it short and sweet with one person....ACTOR EARLE HYMAN. He has a long list of acting credits but he's best known for grandpa Huxtable on the Cosby Show. He is a North Carolina native and every "Hyman or Hymon" that I have encountered with NC roots are related. With me being a "Hyman" and an aspiring filmmaker, it would really dent my heart to "make it" and never have met him.
As you know I stay busy. Look, I'm promoting one of my friends music. Check out my page. Also add him as a friend at www.myspace.com/mrhighhopeslive . Check out his music! He has a GREAT sound and is a PROFOUND lyricist.
