Our buddy John Hudgens (he's posted here a couple times) is making a documentary about fanfilms. Might see a couple familiar faces in this here trailer.
Cool, huh?
Very cool. If I have one regret, it's that I came into all this just too late for the real fun fan filmy stuff
Curse you parents for not having me sooner!
Very cool; keep us posted.
Awesome!
Getting close to finishing the film - hope to be able to announce a premiere screening soon... but in the meantime, there were some stories were just too long to include, or didn't fit with the final versions of certain segments in the final film, so I've been posting these extended interviews as a way to build an appetite for the actual film... there are four online so far:
Sandy Collora talks about casting Batman: Dead End
Robbins Barstow talks about his other famous film, Disneyland Dream
Trey Stokes discusses getting to remix the original Pink Five at Skywalker Ranch on Lucasfilm's dime
I plan on posting a new one every Friday, so either subscribe on YouTube, or keep an eye on the Facebook page!

The Arclight Documentary Film Festival selection process has begun, and I need your help! Please watch and "like" the trailer at this YouTube link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFdfYsd8Ajs
The top five trailers with the most votes in each category (we're in entertainment) will be entered into the festival.
The five films in each category, based on the top trailers, will be shown at ArcLight Hollywood, November 5-8! Each night will feature two or three of the 20 films that were chosen by viewers on YouTube and Facebook. ArcLight will host a special gala on November 10 to announce the winning documentary and present its producer with $10,000.
Please share this link and request with your friends and help get the film into this festival! Thanks!
John Hudgens
Director, Backyard Blockbusters
(The Arclight is a bad-ass theater in Hollywood, it'd be damn cool to see the movie there.)
Consider it liked!
I don think Jim was enthusiastic enough.
Hey guys - thanks for the likes - but apparently the ArcLight people didn't put up all the details... 
This is the important link - go to https://www.facebook.com/ArclightCinema … 0205980784 where you can actually vote for Backyard Blockbusters in the "Entertainment Documentaries" section. They will be counting both the amount of views each video gets on their YouTube page, as well as the amount of votes the films receive on Facebook.
Thanks!
It asked me to add an app.
Sorry, John.
So add the app (annoying design, I know), vote, and then disable the app... easy peasy... 
We're getting hammered in the voting - one or two of the other entertainment entries seem to have obscenely inflated vote counts - so please, vote/like of both Facebook and YouTube, and encourage your friends to di the same - this is too good a screening opportunity to miss! Thanks!

Well, it looks like Backyard Blockbusters is coming to Hollywood!
I'll post the exact screening time as soon as I know it, but we're in the Arclight Documentary Film Festival, which runs November 5-8 at the Arclight in Hollywood on Sunset Blvd... I'm going to try to make it out there for this, so I hope to see some of you there!
A big THANKS to everyone who voted!
Nice one!
Dredging this back up from the depths...
Trying to drum up some interest, so here's the first 12 minutes of the documentary:

The way that intro song has been cut and shortened does not work I'm afraid.
