Council's Three newest members continued their "we care about issues" tour with a joint appearance at a roundtable event that has "made notable contributions to the study and ethical practice of land use." (Their Christmas party is probably awesome. ) Councilman Jones has a nice idea to build a transit line from Center City out to the zoo and other parts of Fairmount Park (I like). Councilwoman Quinones-Sanchez actually wants to tackle the fair/full valuation issue (the policy wonk in me likes, the homeowner of a South Philly home... no so much ;)) One thing in particular grabbed my attention: Green said the city could save 10 percent to 20 percent on infrastructure costs in the long run if it addressed problems now, instead of waiting for roads to cave in or sewer lines to collapse. He suggested that the city should put $60 million to $125 million in savings realized by a planned pension bond into infrastructure, instead of conservative stocks or bonds. The first part makes total sense to me. Fully fund infrastructure upkeep now using money from the operating budget rather than have to rebuild entire broken structures with the capital budget several years from now. It's like using your income to repair the leaky hole in your ceiling rather than waiting and having to take out a loan to rebuild your house when the roof collapses. The second part escapes me. Hopefully Ben can chime in to illuminate me. The city currently has pension obli ... Source: www.digitalspy.co.uk --- 42 days ago

Where are the brothers in this brotherhood of men? If I've learned anything so far in The Great Book Adventure, it's that expectations will get you absolutely nowhere when reading classic literature. It seems that people will take whatever they want from books and apply them however they want, simply ignoring the parts they don't like. This can lead the prospective reader far, far astray. ... ...

It's been called the greatest cloak and sword story ever written. Now I know why. Talk about turning a corner! No sooner had I finished writing the last column and picked up my book again, that things got dramatically better. Where the heroes had been wishy-washy and divided, they become courageous and united. Where the villains had been distant and vague, they suddenly snap into nefarious focus. The last third of Alexandre... ... Source: comingsoon.net --- 42 days ago

The French can't fight? Don't tell that to The Three Musketeers. "All for one, one for all."As far as literary one-liners go, that's pretty far up there on the recognition scale. Indeed, the idea of the Three Musketeers, Three compatriots, is one which has permeated the cultural language fairly consistently. How many times has a group of Three American friends, usually children, been dubbed such?... ... Source: www.reason.com --- 42 days ago

Dinner ended well after midnight at Regis & Jacques Marcon, plus it was Sunday, so I was moving a little slower than usual.

Damn you Hollywood! Millennium Films, the same production company that's bringing back Conan and Buck Rogers, just announced that The Three Musketeers is another one of their next new projects. I thought we were done with these guys in 1993 when Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, and Oliver Platt showed us just how boring they really [...] ...

Filed under: Action , Classics , Independent , Deals , Newsstand , Remakes and Sequels There must be a Hollywood rule that stipulates a new version of The Three Musketeers every ten years or so. The last outing of the gallant Frenchmen was 1998's The Man in the Iron Mask , so they are right on schedule. Variety is reporting that Millennium Films is the latest to tackle the tale. Details are scarce, but what sets this new take apart is that it will be an origin story for Aramis, Porthos and Athos. As their backgrounds were shrouded in mystery, this means it will not really be using much that is actually written by Alexander Dumas. The film is intended to be a franchise, with D'Artagnan appearing in the second or third installment.

You won't hear me denying the timelessness of Alexandre Dumas' adventure tale, The Three Musketeers . However, I'm fascinated that Hollywood feels the need to endlessly adapt the novel . And by "endlessly," I mean this movie's been made a lot . To name just a few, there's the 1993 version starring Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, and Chris O'Donnell. Raquel Welch and Richard Chamberlain starred in a 1973 adaptation, as did Lana Turner and Gene Kelly in 1948. And then there's 1998's The Man in the Iron Mask which is essentially a "sequel" featuring the aging Musketeers. Now this new version, announced today, "will trace how swordsmen Athos, Porthos and Aramis first banded together." I've often wondered (especially recently with so many remakes in the works) why Hollywood insists on recycling old material over and over. Then I spotted this quote from producer Joe Gatt, who is behind this new Musketeers movie (along with the adaptations of Conan the Barbarian and Buck Rogers ), and who puts it rather bluntly: There aren't many branded properties like this out there, and it is a seller's market for the high-profile ones. You can either build one from scratch or find the ones that are available and of interest to audiences, which we did with Conan and Buck Rogers . In other words, "building from scratch" is hard. Redoing old stuff is easy. Is this strategy just lazy? Or do you think each generation deserves it's own Three Musketeers ...
