Christchurch EarthquakeFebruary 22, 2011 1:07 am
Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone in the Christchurch, NZ area in the wake of today’s massive earthquake, the second in only 5 months. New Zealand has served as such a wonderful backdrop for fantasy shows like Legend of the Seeker as well as Lord of the Rings and by all accounts the people there have been absolutely fantastic to the various film crews. We are saddened beyond belief by today’s events and Chris and I hope that if you have anyone in that part of the world, they’re doing ok.

BlindersFebruary 19, 2011 11:53 pm
A received an email from Bridget fan Stephen letting me know that IMDB had incorrectly listed Bridget in the movie Blinders. She was in a movie called Blinders, but it’s not the one she is listed on the credits for on IMDB and they’ve also listed her character with the wrong name. This is important because I used that information on our credits page. I have to admit, a lot of the time when it comes to smaller or indy films I’m at the mercy of sites like IMDB to help me figure out what Bridget’s been in. So a huge thanks to Stephen for helping me fix an error and for giving me a link to where you can watch the entire film! It’s a short film, not more than 10 minutes, and Bridget is in it for only a bit, but it is fun.

Bridget has been listed over on TV Guide as one of the actresses perfect to play Wonder Woman in the new series. Stop on over, vote for her, and leave a comment telling everyone how spiffy cool you think it would be if Bridget got the part!

Now that the dust has settled on the NBC Comcast merger, NBC has announced that it has ordered a Wonder Woman pilot from David E. Kelly! They’ve literally just announced the deal so it will probably some time before we hear anything casting wise. But, here’s hoping that the comments on every article mentioning how perfect Bridget would be as Wonder Woman gets someone’s attention.
