Some Links for the Teams

Hey, sorry I'm so late chiming in.  The Surbulation Station is very excited.  We had our fingers crossed for Sci Fi, but definitely up to the challenge of making a romantic comedy that is both cliche' and mind-blowingly original.  The Surbulation Station loves a challenge.

For those others who have [gladly] excepted their challenges, I have a few encouraging links:

1. A link to the trailer for Dr. Plonk, a fantastic silent film shot in 2007 that ensures Silent Film its place on any respectable genre-list, in my humble opinion.

2. A link to The West Side, an urban western web-series that incorporates such props as a glock, a teddy bear, a crack pipe, and a crowbar, to name a few.

3. A link to something that some of you filmmakers might need, from the sounds of things (You know who you are).

P.S.  I am proud to be working on this project alongside all of you.  And I appreciate your senses of humor.  :)

Silently Speaking

We over at Positronic Films have spent the weekend happy that we don't have to worry about sound editing and sad since that is our background. We also spent the weekend trying to find a single American film in the "genre"of silent movie made since Mel Brooks mocked the era back in 1976. I finally discovered where all the silent movies are, and there are many thousands of them that have been made in America. Unfortunately, they have all been produced by MTV and VH1. The other good thing about being assigned a non-genre as a genre is that we can do any actual genre for our film. So the real question then is how to squeeze in between The Big/Collander in this epic battle for king-of-the-bloody-experimental-surprisingly-quiet-hill.

Collander Films To Write Horror Film

We here at Collander Films have taken the first steps on our horror film. We are excited to be in charge of what is sure to be one of the bloodiest genres of film. Royce and I [Brian] had a chat the other day about some ideas and we think we have hit upon a great one. We discussed different types of horror films and what exactly we wanted to accomplish with the type we chose. David is out of town for a few more days so we cannot communicate with him. We suspect that our nemesis The Big Productions may have kidnapped him. That is just the kind of low trick that those so and so's over there would try, BUT worry not we have a plan for them as well. It will be unpleasant and most likely involve some serious and repeated viewings of Blue Velvet, a film I consider a masterpiece. Beware, Jason. I may even go so far as to use all 4 hours of Inland Empire.....Oh, I'll do it!
