12/17/2005: "Saturday "Big Blog" by Christopher Folino"

Welcome to "Gamers" the movie blog.
The movie has been entered into several film festivals and we do have several studios interested in distribution.
However, since the movie was made on credit cards , fairy dust, and love we are attempting to build up buzz and want to get into a major festival first.

So, with little money, we are doing radical things like taking $50.00 and gambling it on football to pay for the wonderful film festival fees.
To date we have earned $429 which is all riding on the New England Patriots -3 vs Tampa Bay Bucs
We would win an additional $246, which will go into the big pot that will cover all 9 festivals we have entered and perhaps one more.
We love the Pats! They won for us last week and we know the coach told them to "Win one for the movie "Gamers!" We also have $21.00 on the Pats on the same game to win by -7.
Right now, the PATS lead by 21 points! Thank you Jesus.

This would mean that we won $697 in one month.

This is the first time gambling to pay for well anything and it will be our last week.

We got a big week going on starting tomorrow, Beverly D'Angelo, Kelly LeBrock, William Katt and I'm trying to get more of the cast to be interviewed for an indie podcast movie. Maybe even John Heard!

You'll want to listen to this show, we release exclusive audio scenes for the interview!

Also, I want to give a shout out and a thanks to Chuck from Austin, who is placing odds to see which film festival accepts "Gamers".
