KM UK Chat Page Poll

There has been a trial Chat page or two on KM UK now for over a week so I thought it was time to get some feedback on the options we’ve seen.

The very first one, which we’ll call Chat 0, was OK but I had some concerns about the way it was going to work longer term and the lack management tools.  On the plus side it did have a sort of Login option and used Gravatar avatars for each person when available.  It was relatively easy to make some cosmetic adjustments to give a better layout.  It had a sound notification of new posts but no automatic scrolling.

That was quickly followed by Chat 1.  A definite improvement in the way in the way it handled comments in terms of spam protection and management but did suffer from a few false positives.  Cosmetic tweaks had it looking like it belonged on KM UK.  The chat was paged rather than a continuous list, which had its pluses and minuses.

Chat 2 is, in many ways, much like Chat 0.   Similar in layout but it has some filtering and management options that Chat 0 didn’t have.  The comment handling lacks a little compared to Chat 1 though.  There also appears to be a performance issue with the Safari web browser, including that found on the iOS (iPhone, iPad & iPod touch).  Sound notification and auto-scrolling are both options.

Chat 1 and Chat 2 are both available for testing.  They are both listed in the menu on the right, for now.

Now is the time to decide which way we’re going to go with it.  Chat 0 was quickly replaced with the superior Chat 1, so that is not an option, but number 2 is still in the running.

So, which chat would you like to see KM UK keep?  Or do you want it scrapped completely?

We’ll leave this running for a few days.  Feel free to leave any feedback, suggestions and comments below.

Confections… Filming Complete – Update

on_set_20120699_001on_set_20120699_001Director Michael Damian has let it be known via Twitter that filming on Confections Of A Discarded Woman has completed.

Based on previous information it was due to end on the 24th of June, though I don’t believe that today’s message necessarily contradicts that.  Michael mentioned that he is now on a writers retreat in France so could have been there a couple of days.

In a short series of Tweets about the film Michael sent a few photos taken during the process.  Only one of these appears to include Kathryn (see right), and even then I have my doubts.  Check out the full-sized version in the Gallery and let us know what you think.  Is that her on the very right of frame?

The fact that filming has wrapped is a good thing but now we have to wait a year to see the results  :-(

You can read more about the film and Kathryn’s role in it in earlier posts HERE and HERE.  The film’s IMDb page continues to be updated (it is now listed as being in post-production) with an increasing cast list, most of them English actors.

Thanks to Michael for the information and allowing KM UK to share his photos.

Update:  I forgot to add a poll to this post.

Should I add a poll to this post? :-)

  • Yes (73%, 8 Votes)
  • What was the question? (27%, 3 Votes)

There’s Nothing Trivial About Kathryn

imdb_logo_100x100A few days ago the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) posted a trivia question about the film Moneyball on their Facebook page.  See it HERE.

As with so many good questions the answer they were after was “Kathryn Morris” :-)

The question in question was: This actress was cast as Billy Beane’s second wife in Moneyball, but her scenes were cut from the film. Can you guess the actress?

Many of the commenters got the correct answer but I’m not sure that all of them were taking it seriously.  Betty White?

Of course, I could be wrong 😕  What do you think the correct answer is?

Which actress was cast as Billy Beane's 2nd wife in Moneyball?

  • Kathyrn Morris (89%, 17 Votes)
  • Betty White (5%, 1 Votes)
  • Other (5%, 1 Votes)
  • Jennifer Aniston (0%, 0 Votes)
  • Angelina Jolie (0%, 0 Votes)

Is This Kathryn In Moneyball?

screenshot_001Several TV trailer videos for Moneyball have been released in recent days.  One, known as Defy The Odds, might very well contain the first evidence of Kathryn starring in the movie.

Just for a bit of fun I’ve added a simple Yes/No poll below to see if you think it is Kathryn.

The video, now in the Gallery, contains a very brief shot of Brad and a mysterious blonde in what appears to be a restaurant.  Brad speaks but we hear nothing from the woman and there are no other shots from the scene in the video.  An HD screenshot from the video is in the Gallery.

Based on previous images we’ve seen of Kathryn on set it seems reasonable to jump to the conclusion that it is her.  Robin Wright (as Billy Beane’s first wife Sharon) has straight hair and Kerris Dorsey (as his daughter Casey) has a shorter, darker style.  The white and black top the lady above is wearing is even in keeping with some of those photos.

Of course, just because a shot is used in a trailer does not mean it will be in the film.  Hopefully we will get more concrete information very soon.

We are only two weeks away from the movie’s world première at TIFF and a month away from the general release in north America.

Vote Kathryn

51st Monte Carlo TV Festival LogoWe’ve frequently been able to see that the French people appreciate Kathryn very much, a sentiment we certainly concur with :-)

Further proof of this is the French TV network TMC and magazine Télé 7 Jours giving viewers a chance to vote for the “actress and actor of the most glamorous series of 2011”.  This includes Kathryn for Cold Case, presumably she is eligible because new episodes of CC are still being broadcast.  In some way this is connected to the annual Monte Carlo Television Festival due to happen in early June, an event that Kathryn has attended several times in the past.

Get voting for our favourite lady by going HERE.

Thanks to Karen for the heads-up.
