02/25/2006: "New Review of the film from Gen Con by Christopher Folino"

Patrick Jankiewicz who writes for Dreamwatch Magazine and who saw a cut of the film at Gen Con in Los Angeles, CA last November gave us some excellent quotes.

“A meaner, funnier Napoleon Dynamite” and “It’s a goodhearted movie, with a lot of invention."
–Dreamwatch Magazine
Wow, isn’t that kick ass? I will post the entire article once I get it.

I’m going to have to ask him if that’s cool if we use those quotes in our new trailer!
Mixed with Shannon’s review from Warcry.com and we got ourselves some sweet press and they haven’t even seen the latest cut yet!

The date has been set for the distribution/private screening for “Gamers” March 21st, 2006 at 7:30PM at the Fine Arts Theater.

I’m really excited about the screening at the Fine Arts Theater, and we are starting to reach out to get hype, press, and distributors to come.

I saw some photos of the theater, man that’s a kick ass place, it sits a little over 400 people and we are getting the name of the movie on the marquee for that night.
Call me a geek, I don’t give a shit, that’s going to be sweet!

I got another copy of the film to review this weekend, and we are down to really small details. Minor graphic and audio changes, it’s rather nice.
Other than myself there’s only been one other person who has watched the new cut and that’s our producer Manuel. And he stated the new cut is a hundred times better.

It’s not that the last cut sucked, it’s just time and perspective.
