Во всех ЖЖ и иже с ним дайри трубят о славном пребывании там команды Суперов, в том числе КрипкеГада и товарища Эклза. Но, конвенция не ограничилась только этой вселенной.
На коне побывал и наш дорогой ББешечка. В Фарскаповской части кона творились всяческие непотребства. Одно из которых - Бен Браудер и Брайн Хенсон устроившие безумное кукольное шоу для фанов.
Тыц, чтобы посмотреть видео:
ББешека все также хорош, не смотря на свой далеко не юный возраст (посмотрим, как будет выглядеть мистер Эклз в таких годах

ББ дал интервьюшечку фан-сайту с пафосным названием "Портал Бена Браудера"
BB: We were in international waters about 200 miles offshore and it was just the most remarkable thing. When we arrived it was about 40 degrees below zero and then add wind chill on top of that.
LA: Wooooooooo (Visibly shaking in horror) BB: Yeah, it was crazy. You step outside and just from the walk from your room to the mess tent you can’t feel your face.
LA: Ben, you are on fire! You’ve got two projects in the works right now that the internet is just buzzing over. That doesn’t even include the Stargate movies. BB: (Laughing) Well you know, at least I’ve got something going on.
LA: Yeah, that’s a good thing! First there’s Going Homer. What can you tell us about that? BB: Andrew Prowse and I pitched a couple of projects. Andrew and I wrote a script together last year after having worked together for years and years on Farscape. We’re very comfortable with one another. In fact Andrew was saying that he was talking to Brian about it (the scripts that we’re working on), and he had made the comment that working together with Ben was “ego-less”. And Brian said “No, in fact, you both have huge egos but it’s focused on the work.” Prowse is one of the most direct individuals that I have ever met in my life. I don’t know if you have ever met him.
LA: No, not personally. BB: Well it’s just that he’s one of the most interesting and direct people that you would ever want to know. And in fact the first time we were working together, we had been working together about a week, we stepped outside after a rehearsal. We were standing there and I looked at him, and I asked him “What is it about you that makes me want to hit you?” Andrew’s about 6’3”, tough guy from southern Australia , a pretty big athlete. And he balls up his fist, looks at me, and he says “I feel the same way about you”.
LA: Oh no! (Laughing) BB: From that point on we were fine. We’re working together right now on a script called Going Homer. It’s about a 12 year old kid who is in the middle of his parents getting divorced. His father’s a soldier in Iraq and they’re having problems on the home front and he sees the world in terms of Greek myths. So basically it’s a family drama which plays out through the eyes of a 12 year old who sees the Greek myths living around him.
LA: Ben, you’re a classically trained actor. BB: Uh, huh.
LA: Is this going back to your roots? BB: Well I don’t know. My entry point to the idea actually came from my son who, at the moment, is obsessed with Greek mythology. He’s kind of latched on to it in the same way that Ray HarryHausen did. You see the thing is there’s a whole slew of Ray Harrihousen stuff with Jason and the Argonauts, and if you look at Harry Potter (and I only thought about this afterwards), so many of the creatures from Harry Potter are based on Greek mythology. But a large part of it had to do with my son’s interest in it. And then I started looking around at the influences of Greek culture within our own society. You can’t throw a rock without hitting Greco Roman influences in America . It just evolved out of that idea. Andrew and I tossed it back and forth for a while.
LA: So SciFi Channel has committed six hours for this project. BB: The deal is for a six hour mini series and right now we’re working on it.
LA: I’m getting the hint that our time with you is getting short. Let me ask you about Black Mountain . BB: Right now is a script that Andrew and I are currently working on. It’s with MGM and we’ll see where that goes. It’s a script that we sold.
LA: Congratulations! Is it a movie? A mini-series? BB: It’s a movie. It’s kind of a simple kind of movie. It’s kind of a scifi/alien/horror movie that has an unusual tone to it.
LA: So you’re sticking with the scifi genre? BB: It’s kind of what’s fallen off the truck lately. There’s some other projects I’m working on. Some other stuff. I’ve got a project that I’ve talked to Chris Judge about which is not scifi.
LA: So you like working in collaboration with others? Or do you prefer to work by yourself? Or you start by yourself and then … BB: Sometimes I start by myself. But sometimes it’s better to have someone else to… My experience with writing in the writing room on Farscape was that when writing, the collaboration that you get from others is very helpful. I’m not a writer by trade.
LA: You’re not?! BB: No. You know, I do it but the interaction that I get from working with directors and other people I find very helpful. Because I’ll throw out a million bad ideas and we sort of see what sticks. And also hearing what other people have to say when other people say “That’s bullshit.” You have to figure out a way to say “No no no, it’s not bullshit. I’m just not explaining it right.” Or maybe it is bullshit. I like that process. I like that collaboration where people tell me that my ideas suck.
LA: Are you getting into producing with these new projects? BB: Well, you know, we’ll see where it goes. I like the process of story telling whether I’m in front of the camera or behind the camera. When I’m on the set, I’m almost as fascinated by everything else that’s going on as I am with my job.
