Blanks on a Blank Group "A" Screening

[vine311]

So, I went to the first Blanks on a Blank screening last night (as did the Kittens and Orf) and watched 25 film parodies on the big screen at the Drafthouse. Some were clever, some were bizzare and some just plain sucked. Tarantulas on a Hovercraft and Koalas on a Police Car got some of the biggest audience reactions out of all of the films. Stellar job guys. I am insanely jealous and currently kicking myself in the ass for not getting my shit together in time to submit my own. Hats off to all of you.

There is a repeat showing Friday at midnight at the Alamo Village.

Feel free to go and vote for Tarantulas on a Hovercraft and Koalas on a Police Car.

I don't doubt that some of the other filmmakers will be going to both showings in order to stack the house and vote for their film again (there is an "audience favorite award"), so if you want the AIC to win out, we should do the same. This is a democracy, if you don't use your right to go vote you run the risk of losing it!

I was so glad you came. It was fun sitting in a row peopled with AIC members having a good time.

Yeah, thanks for coming Jason!
- and sorry if saying you looked like an old man upset you (that blond hair from far away). When it grows out you'll have highlighted tips like the ones that were popular 7 years ago.

I'm not as crazy as Wes when it comes to getting more people to see this. I'm glad for the support we've had (which has been a lot and awesome!).

Last night was fun. I was so nervous upon viewing the screening that I couldn't eat any of the expensove food I purchased.

It's ok, after I finished off an entire half gallon of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream I felt better.

Weren't you in diapers 7 years ago? How do you remember what was popular?

Ooooh. Dissss.
No, I was in middle school (and in full control of my bodily functions!).
I was coherent enough to remember what was popular among the popular kids, but introspective enough to think everything was wrong with me. So my brothers and I got a home highlighting kit to be cool for the start of 8th grade. One brother ended up with orange tiger stripes somehow. Mine just looked cheap. Hooray!

Everyone is fantastic and does some really good acting.

Kareem made me fall off my cahir laughing several times.

That initial walk up the stairs to he Hovercraft is on a loop in my head. How do I make that loop be my avatar?

Wes just knows a good oppotunity when he sees it. Theatres full of Snakes on a Plane geeks? Hundreds of eyes before each and every Alamo screening, seven days a week, for weeks on end? Hundreds or thousands of comedy geeks online? A controlled first impression.
We could flyer from here until doomsday and not get that kind of word of mouth.

Strike while the iron's hot or get out of the kitchen. If you don't try to fly too high, you'll never find out if your wings can melt or not.

The summer before 6th grade I got the bright idea to use "Sun In" in my hair. It was supposed to turn your hair blonde but that only works on people that already have blonde hair. The result was something closer to the color of a rusty roadside traffic cone. When school finally started all the kids made fun of me and dubbed me "Copper Top". My dad took me to a barber and ordered me to get a military style flattop haircut shortly after that. I then proceeded to grow my hair out over the next few years into the crappiest mullet ever to grace a scalp. It looked like a poodle had curled up and died on the back of my neck. Ever since then I have tried just about every hair color and style that I can think of with varying results. I suppose one day I'll settle on a look that's "just me", but I ain't there yet.

Oh yes. I'll have to scan some of them but I can definitely provide proof of past hair debacles.
