Tom Delonge's (Blink 182/Boxcar Racer) new project/movie, Angels And Airwaves (http://www.myspace.com/angelsandairwaves) now has a myspace.com (http://www.myspace.com/angelsandairwaves) page. Rumor has it, Tom will be an actor in the movie, but details on that aren't available yet. According to his resume, Michael Ostman (http://www.michaelostman.bravehost.com/resume.html) will be playing a soldier/businessman in the movie (not Tom, like previously reported). Also, the company that is making the movie is Resting Bird Entertainment (http://restingbird.com/)...hmm... is the countdown on their website solved?

And so many people doubted the e-mail from the other day...well I guess it was suspicious. But all of this is good news anyone.

So like some serious shit must've gone on in blink for this hiatus. They don't speak about the circumstances surrounding the situation and now they're off on other projects and keeping that secret. Very weird.

09/10/05, 09:11 AM
For awhile I was wondering if DeLonge retired or what, because for like 3 months or so, I hadn't heard one thing about this guy. It was all about Mark and Travis with Plus 44 and the Transplants and what not, but hearing news about DeLonge has got me all excited inside. If that countdown on Resting Bird is for Angels and Airwaves, then January 19th will be a very good day for all DeLonge fans across the nation.

i wonder if the movie's gonna be released as a dvd with the cdIf so, that'd be awesome. And even if it wasn't with the CD, I'd buy that seperately without a doubt. DeLonge acting should be something of interest to many, but I think that he could honestly pull it off, because he has his own quirky style of doing things and it might actually work for an acting role.

Im not saying any of this isnt true, i just thought you guys would like to know what kinda response you would get from a blink 182 manager?? ha i dont know why i told you guys that.

"I'm in a movie called AVA. My first day on set, I worked with Blink 182 and Box Car Racer frontman Tom Delonge. His new band is called Angels And Airwaves. I was told the movie might be released in correlation with the bands new album. Thanks to Tom's fans for the cool emails regarding my role in the film!". - Michael Ostman

Wow...this is going to be crazy awesome. I can't wait for this. It'll be interesting to see what each side project sounds like. I don't really care if Plus 44 sounds better than Angels and Airwaves or what...I'm excited for each one. Tom made a bulletin on his myspace page about the Plus 44 album coming out January 19. I thought it was interesting since Plus 44 made an update about it not coming out until summer of next year but Tom made that post about their album on September 4. Now if we could just have a demo or something from each of them...

i'm kind of indifferent about this. I'm excited but at the same time I don't want it to be a big embarassment. I hope it turns out well and everything is great but I'm very nervous to say the least. I'm not sure how good the movie is going to be, and if tom has a feature role in a serious, I suppose war flick due to the fact that there is a soldier in the movie and the AvA logo has fighter planes and so on, thats a little iffy. But well see i guess hopefully its incredible.

Oh just like how mark and tom both own atticus and macbeth? And how blink was taken off of macbeth and tom was put up and how blink was taken from atticus and mark was put up there. If they both own macbeth and atticus you think they both had something to do with that? I dont know about that.

That kid said he thought since mark and tom both own resting bird entertainment that they both know whats going on with this movie "AVA" for toms new side project. I was saying that we dont know how they feel about eachother or even if they both are involved in this movie, when on the atticus website (the clothing company they both own) blink was taking out of the family section and mark was put in there and on the macbeth site (a clothing company they both own) blink was taken off and toms bio was added. im not saying that kid is wrong im just sayin that we really dont know how they feel after this blink hiatus and if they both are still involved in eachothers lives.

I really do not mean to be doubtful of this, and dont get me wrong cause Ive loved blink since way back from the early dude ranch days; hell I would easily consider them my personal favourite band of all time, but doesnt anyone feel this is a bit too much. I mean dont get me wrong, I definetly want a solo album from Tom Delonge, I mean what blink fan doesnt right? But a movie? Doesnt anyone find this a bit much... especially coming from a guy who wrote I wanna fuck a dog in the ass? Mature all you want but this just seems kinda silly to me.. I donno. Im sure people are all gonna disagree cause everyone seems to be real into it, but whatever i suppose. Just stating my stance. Im all for a Tom Solo project, but i cant say im overly excited about the tom delong movie..

on a totally oddball side note, congrats to bryce (aka the rocket summer) on gettin picked up by island.. hopefully they dont fuck him up like they did autopilot off. :)

it can't be any worse than the "concept" album, "trapped in the closet". R Kelly pretty much took the lowest you can go to a whole new level. I am nervous about this though, because based soley on Tom's words, I am expecting this band to change the world of music....
