Fan Film Podcast - Episode 47

Sat, 23 May 2009 12:00:00 +0000

We are deeply honored to have Doctor Robbins Barstow as a very special guest this time out on the Fan Film Podcast. Not only has Dr. Robbins produced the only Tarzan fan film that we are aware of, but also has one of his films in the Library of Congress under the National Film Registry. In all fairness, I’m sure there are other Tarzan fan films out there somewhere. What makes Dr. Robbins film unique and special is that it was produced in 1936 making this a true pioneering film in the realm to what we classify as a “FAN FILM.” The short is called Tarzan and the Rocky Gorge and I’m sure hard core fan film connoisseurs like Fanboy Will and myself will agree it stands head to toe with most of what is coming out of the community today. It’s a fun film totally reflective on the times. As mentioned above in December 2008, Disneyland Dream was named to the National Film Registry by the Librarian of Congress. This 30-minute amateur documentary film tells the story of the Barstow’s adventures going to the Magic Kingdom back in 1956. If watching someone’s home movies of their vacation doesn’t especially interest you make a special exception in this case as the whole experience makes for an interesting story. You can watch all of the films by Dr. Robbins at the Barstow Travel Adventure hosted by Archive.org. IN TWO WEEKS: We have no idea. Check back on this BLURB as we get a clue!

Imagine, if you will, getting to write and direct your own films for a living. Then imagine that the actresses you’re hiring to play your characters are sexy and beautiful. On top of that, they wear tight fitting spandex as their characters dictate. Ok. If you’re a girl that part may not be all that exciting for you, but if you’re a hormone with legs like the male species that’s a bit of all right. The man who we are most jealous of making these babe-elicious superheroine films is Mr. Andy Rodriguez through his company New Phoenix Filmworks International. Andy has created his own universe of characters including such names as RetroGirl, Darkfury, Powercat, and many others. These are just not mere titillation films. Although, all his characters are beautiful women in skimpy outfits the films never go beyond a PG-13 rating and you’ll always find a comic book themed plot to go along with the film. IN TWO WEEKS: Dr. Robbins Barstow talks about his fan film Tarzan and the Rocky Gorge made in 1936 when he was 16-years-old. Dr. Barstow has some great stories to tell so you won’t want to miss the next FFP.

How do we know Marc Kimball? Oooohhhh…let us count the ways. There’s his Star Wars mockumentary, "The Star Wars Battle of Hoth." There’s his parody political satire, “Star Wars, Dantana Morse for Galactic Senate.” There’s his original short film, “Star Ranger 7: A Force of One.” But Marc is most well known for his classic fan film, “Superman: The Super 8 Movie” which has been picked up, used, and shelved more times than William Shatner’s hairpiece. We go all over the place with Marc. Mr. Kimball certainly discusses his Superman film and how the powers that be at Warner Brothers initially requested it being taken off the internet. Also discussed is the new Star Trek film almost upon us as well as the Trek franchise as a whole. Just an hour of fanboy (and girl) chaos you would only expect from the FFP. Make sure you take a look at all the hard (and fun!) work Marc and his peeps have produced by going to Star Ranger 7.com. NEXT WEEK: “Snakes! Why did it have to be snakes?” Not to say that next week’s guests are snakes. They just happened to have filmed a shot for shot remake of the classic film that spawned the classic line. Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala swing into the show talk about their Fan Film classic based on a classic - Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala are back for more torture as we conclude their interview this week on the Fan Film Podcast. Both gentleman exchange stories of meeting the master himself, Steven Spielberg and how their humble little fan film found its was into his hands. They also discuss their original concept they are shopping around right now called “What the River Takes”. Hopefully this film will make it to a theater near you. Lastly, Mr. Strompolos clues us in on the pending actors strike. I’m sure you’ll agree all interesting stuff on this week’s cast. Make sure you also check out these links of interest: Raiders of the Lost Backyard Michael Hogan: The “Raiders Kids” Strike Back Raiders.net - Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation NEXT WEEK: Andy Rodriguez talks about his babe-elicious superheroine films released from his New Phoenix Filmworks International.

When Raiders of the Lost Ark came out in 1981 it left a lasting impression on a whole generation of movie goers like nothing that came before. Such is true for three young, strapping youths; Chris Strompolos, Eric Zala and Jayson Lamb. Their passion for the film ignited a seven year “arc” of filming their own shot-by-shot adaptation in the backyards of their Mississippi homes. This week the Fan Film Podcast interviews Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala about their experiences in the making of this classic fan film. The things they did to make this film were one part clever, one part innovative, and two parts crazy. NEXT WEEK: Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala return as they talk about their experiences meeting Mr. Steven Spielberg and their original project they hope to bring to the big screen.

The Flash first appeared in the Golden Age Flash Comics #1, January of 1940, from All-American Publications, one of three companies that would eventually merge to form DC Comics. Created by writer Gardner Fox and artist Harry Lampert, this Flash was Jay Garrick, a college student who gained his speed through the inhalation of hard water vapors, wearing a winged metal helmet reminiscent of the mythological Greek god Hermes. Through the years three other Speedsters would take on the mantle; Barry Allen, Wally West, and Bart Allen. Jason Damian from Influence Films uses the Wally West version of the Flash character for his first foray into fandom filming with "The Flash: Crossover". The film also has Harley Quinn and Talia al Ghul making an unprecedented alliance. When every other fan film is based on the Star Wars or Batman mythos it’s refreshing to see another of DC’s giants make it into live action. We talk to Jason this week about his DC character offering as well as his upcoming Mortal Kombat film, "The Tobias Diamond". NEXT WEEK: Marc Kimball does we he loves for a living and loves what he does for play. We’ll talk to Marc about his classic Superman fan film as well as his other offerings. Make sure you check out his site at Star Ranger 7.com.

Enter the most controversial comic book adaptation to film that has ever been attempted - the Alan Moore and Dave Gibbon’s prestige 12-part mini-series the Watchmen. In today’s standards you could say it didn’t do well at the box office. I think incorporating the word “bombed” would be unfair for the film, but it certainly didn’t fair as well as the studio would of dreamed. Enter Nic Collins from Tootalu Films. While Zack Snyder was some what successful in pleasing the fans on his 120+ million dollar epic Nic was trying to please the fans (and himself) with his next to zero budgeted film involving the same source material. When you compare apples to oranges both Zack and Nic came as close as any filmmaker would ever be able to make this classic story to film. Enter Fanboy Will and me – Christopher Moshier. Two fan film fanatics that find it necessary to drag these great filmmakers kicking and screaming onto our show. We never even asked Zack Snyder. We were more interested in interviewing Nic about his fan film Fearful Symmetry. His vision of the graphic novel will certainly go down in fan film history. After talking to Nic we concluded he’s crazy. Only a crazy person would try such an ambitious project with such a minimal budget. NEXT WEEK: Enter Jason Damian from Influence Films.

James Watson from Atlantis Studios is in the hot seat this week as Fanboy Will and I grill him about his comic book series turned live action short films called Paula Peril. We put Mr. Watson under the hot lights with no glass of water in site until he spilled the beans on this character that is a cross between Nancy Drew and a female Indiana Jones. Fanboy Will had to rap Mr. Watson’s knuckles a few times until James discussed how he was able to get the ever so beautiful Valerie Perez to play the title character. Finally, we worked Mr. Watson over until he spoke about the Tomb Raider collaborative fan magazine that he publishes. Eventually, Mr. Watson was let go with a warning, he would have to continue the great comic book and film adventures of Paula Peril or he would have to answer to the forces behind the Fan Film Podcast. Make sure you check out the official Paula Peril website. NEXT WEEK: Our next victim will be Mr. Nic Collins from Tootalu Films discussing his Watchmen fan film Fearful Symmetry.

I’m very jealous of Fanboy Will on this week’s Fan Film Podcast. Will interviews Mr. Phil Morris at this years New York City Comic Convention held at the Javits Center on February 6th through the 8th. This gentleman has been a fanboy favorite with his numerous Star Trek appearances, his voice work, and of course Jackie Chiles on Seinfeld. Then there’s this juggernaut show called Smallville where Phil plays the iconic character The Martian Manhunter. We learn about Phil's new project called "Emissary". Fanboy Will was also able to talk with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles creator Peter Laird. NEXT WEEK: We hope to be speaking with James Watson from Atlantis Studios about his original comic book character Paula Peril who he’s bringing into the realm of live action.

AND WE ARE BACK! Welcome to the first show of 2009. Fanboy Will is going to get things going the next two podcasts with his experiences and interviews from the New York City Comic Convention held at the Javits Center on February 6th through the 8th. I’m just along for the ride chiming in with my witless and humorless comments. Interviews to expect are with Ray Felix from Cup O Java Studio. Miss Horror Fest 2009, Victoria Tim, (VicTim - get it!) is representing. Chris Notarile from Blinky Productions makes a quick appearance. Terence Krey and Christian Nilsson were promoting their Thor based fan film web series Rainbow Bridge. Our old friend Robert Feldman from Dr. Shroud fame is on hand.

Fanboy Will and I are always pleasantly surprised how down to Earth our guests are. At the end of each interview we always comment on how nice so and so was not to mention how personable. Come to think of it, the majority of our guests to date carry their own interviews making our lives a million times easier. Gotham Public Works is truly one of those interviews where Fanboy Will and I just got to sit back as we went along for the ride. Members Tara Strand (Harley Quinn), Donald Strand (The Joker), and Regan Remy (Catwoman) were kind enough to join us for this week’s cast discussing the philosophy behind the Batman themed group as well their upcoming fan film; Batman: Forsaken. NEXT WEEK: We get a second round with the Gotham Public Works team. We’ll also be attempting to get the other members of the group on our cast sometime in 2009. So stay tuned true believers.

Fanboy Will and I conclude our talk with Ron Santiano from REDCAPE Cinema. We talk more about his original series, "EVE", as well as his plan for a few spin off series and also a scoop on a possible new fan film. Ubber goodness with a creamy center! Every fourth Thursday in November in the United States there is this tradition where we cook a large bird known as a Turkey, watch football, drink massive amounts of beer, and take the day to be grateful for all we take for granted. I am grateful for this fun podcast we try to put together on an almost weekly basis, my good friend and co-host Fanboy Will, our fantastic guests, and everyone else who takes the time to listen in about this most unsung of entertainment outlets - the FAN FILM!

There are so many great talents and names in the fan film maker world. There are those names that stand at the top of the list of quality of entertainment that Fanboy Will and I really wanted and want to be apart of the show. Ron Santiano from REDCAPE Cinema is one of those people. He is the first person that brought justice the character of Wonder Woman and her mythos through the fan film. From there, Ron has branched out to his original action, adventure series called Eve that could easily match any high concept show that is on mainstream television today. Ron and his Redscape staff really show how awesome entertainment can be produced on a shoe-string budget. This is part one of a two part interview with Mr. Santiano. NEXT WEEK: Well! If there is a two-parter and this week was the first part then obviously next week is part two. You see why I’m put in charge of producing this cast. I’m the brains, baby!

When you think of where movies are produced you instantly think of Kentucky don’t you? After all isn’t Kentucky the movie capital of the world? Isn’t the leading entertainment news source Access Kentucky? Is that famous game show originally hosted by Bert Parks called Kentucky Squares? And surely everyone has taken a stroll down the sidewalk of the Kentucky Walk of Fame. This week’s guest is George Bonilla from ZP International Picture Production and Distributions. And if you haven’t guessed it yet his business is located in the "United We Stand, Divided We Fall" state of Kentucky. His company makes films with titles such as The Edison Death Machine, Redwood Justin: Vampire Hunter, and Hell-ephone. These are original independent character driven features not bogged down by the standard Hollywood formula. As a side venture George has dabbled in the fan film with a quick little take on the Indiana Jones franchise with his offering the "Mummy's Skull" that stars pre-school and elementary school talents in the roles. Make sure you check out the short over at the FFP sister site, the Comic Book Bin. IN TWO WEEKS: James Christopher is no stranger to the fan film. He's put together titles such as Batman: Death in the Family and Punisher: Slavers among others. Fanboy Will and James really get going into the comic books so expect a fun listen. COMING SOON: The FFP is going to kick some major ass to end the year off right. We’re still expecting Chris Cowan & Alexander Randleman from "Elseworlds" to appear as soon as we can mesh our schedules. Add to that Ron Santiano from REDCAPE Cinema, Larry and Aaron Longstreth with animator Jacob Drake discussing arguably the most anticipated fan film of this year, "The Greatest Fan Film of All Time", and Tara Nicole Strand who is amassing her troops over at Gotham Public Works for a interview of mass proportions.

Braxtan has put together some other classic laugh fests in form of Freddy VS Jason 2: The best damn sequel, period, Illegal Aliens VS Predator, and Four More Years of Vader among some of his funniest offerings. Returning this week from his sabbatical to Tibet is Brother Fanboy Will. He brings a twelve pack of Coors Light with him to christen the occasion. Not to be outdone, my bottle of Vodka was not far out of reach. We have to thank Hank for putting up with our drunken babbling. Maybe not very professional, but that explains the hosts of the show to a "T"! NEXT WEEK: George Bonilla from ZP International Productions will be our guest discussing his film projects as well as giving us a good lesson on the coming technologies for the independent film maker.

When most young people are spending their time playing video games, watching some obscure reality show, or just generally trying to figure out what to do with their lives Dan Nastro is making movies. One particular short production is of course a fan film spotlighting the junior miss from Krypton, Supergirl as in Confessions of a Teenage Supergirl. At nineteen, Dan has an already impressive list of credits to his name with experience that will propel him into the next generation of movie makers. Dan is twenty years younger than the host as well as twenty years more mature as you’ll discover in this week's podcast. HELP WANTED: Do you like fan films? Do you like to interview people?

We have a different tone for this week's show. Let's call it our POT LUCK show as we incorporate various bits that have been cluttering the hard drive. Joshua Hawks from JEDIz and Jinxes joins us this time out for a short interview. The interview was recorded through SKYPE and for reasons unknown didn’t come out so well. I'll be crossing SKYPE off my list of programs to use for this PODCAST. Comedy Bits used in the cast where stolen from...errr...I mean provided by… Maritess Versus Super Friends performed by comedian Rex Navarrete. Batman bit by Crank Yankers found on Comedy Central. NEXT WEEK: Dan Nastro helps the FFP get back into the superhero themed Fan Films. He’ll be talking about his contribution, Confessions of a Teenage Supergirl.

You may or may not be aware that the Fan Film Podcast has a couple sister sites. Of course there's Fanboy Will's Fanboy Theatre as well as my very own Fan Film Follies, but there's also a third entity called the Comic Book Bin. The BIN is the host and where I post all the great fan films we talk about on the FFP. It's also the leading comic book news and reviews site stationed in Canada. The founder of the site is one Hervé St-Louis. I guess you can say he's the boss when it comes to the Comic Book Bin. He has a deep passion about the comic book industry which you'll clearly understand as you listen to this week's cast. Some of what you'll hear this week is how DC comics wanted the BIN'S fan film section taken down before they would start sending materials for review, Hervé's run in with IDW, and I learn the definition of "metrosexual". Also, Will has resurfaced and should be back on the cast very soon. I'll do my best to carry the torch, but it's like running a marathon with no legs. NEXT WEEK: It's round two with Hervé St-Louis from the Comic Book Bin.

AND we're finally back! OK! One of us is. Fanboy Will is among the missing again. He disappears from time to time to keep up his mysterious facade. Gary Hughes helps the FFP put back the old steam in the show after a brief hiatus. Gary and his crew of gallant filmmakers have put together a project based on the classic Republic serials, more specifically emulating the high-flying heroes of old. "Thirty Second Doom" is a four part, cliffhanger series emulating all the fun props, music, and feel of the classic films. NEXT WEEK: It had to happen sometime. YEAH! I have to have the boss on. Hervé St-Louis from the Comic Book Bin joins us for the first of a two part interview.

Sandy Collora is a BIG name in the world of the fan film producing the classic "Batman: Dead End" and his follow-up FF, "World’s Finest." Dead End was and is directly responsible for the countless Batman fan films that came after not to mention comic book fan films in general. Dead End also single handedly made fan films no longer welcome at the San Diego Comic Con. It showed Hollywood the fans could do it better. Hollywood doesn’t like that! Sandy talks to the FFP this week discussing his new original film project "Hunter Prey", a low-budget, independent film with nods to such sci-fi greats as the original Star Wars and Planet of the Apes. COMING SOON: The FFP will be on vacation for the next couple weeks. But when we get back here are a list of the guests we’ll have on tap to close out the summer and bring us through the fall months; Film Makers Chris Cowan & Alexander Randleman from "Elseworlds", Director Dan Nastro from "Confessions of a Teenage Supergirl", David Guivant from the Iron Man fan film, Gary Hughes on his retro series "Thirty Second Doom", James Christopher from "Batman: Death in the Family", and several others I’m probably forgetting.

It's a full blown pleasure to finally speak with a man I've been electronically harassing for six years. Now - instead of stalking him via email and MySpace messages I finally get to call him. And now that I have his number I'll never stop! And I have so much confidence in my heterosexuality I can admit this to the world with a clear conscience. But it isn't what you would think at first. I neither stalk him for his rippling physic or his million dollar home in Beverly Hills. NO! I stalk him for his "Amanda Hades" and his "Geek Week" and his "1st Person Shooter" - not that 1st Person Shooter sickos! Fanboy Will and I interview Mr. Sean Rourke of 3rd Floor Productions. When he isn't working his day job in Hollywood he's grabbing his camera, his friends, and a world of imagination to make some top quality entertainment that I dare any fanboy or girl not to enjoy. NEXT WEEK: We conclude our interview with Sean which includes talking more on his team's projects and a few incites into Hollywood and the possible Actor's Strike.
