For The Press - A Project Summary

May
05

So, during my nightly spree to find any new incoming links or discussions about the site, I came across this: http://reddit.com/info/6i5sb/comments/

It’s real good for a couple of laughs.

I really enjoyed the one quote of: “Think of something in-between the Choose Your Own Adventure plots and what Dean Koontz would write if he had talent.”

Oh, and Uwe Boll is on Spike tonight at 9pm. Adrian asked me to Tivo it.

8:55 pm

U-way bowl? Wow, this is absolutely hilarious. Why don’t you two give em a call. Especially right after Uwe Boll is on. Send em some information about the site, and the project, and see if you guys can get on Spike.

That’d be epic in so many ways.



@reddit.com

I just layed the smacketh down upon them.

I ask you all to read my post and the ones that will prolly follow. I’m gunna get flamed like hell for it, but these people need to pull their heads out of their asses and look at the world around them for once.



Nek, just be careful — don’t want to get any more lawsuit threats like the M.N. one. Heh. Spike is not out of the realm of possibility, nor is AoTS. Just need to get a few more things up (like the animatic).



Lol, Patrick, thanks for the vote of confidence.

Unlike you and Adrian, however, I’m not bound by legal code. So, by this standard, I can say to them what they need to hear. You prolly agree with some of what I’ll say, prolly disagree with some too.

But you guys didn’t work on this project for nothing. You’ve worked hard on it and you deserve to be given credit for that. For them to be so hard-nosed about it just rubs me the wrong way.

Also, I had to laugh when I saw the guy saying:

“Is Uwe Boll directing?”

^^^^ lol



Well, the reality is that we live in a results-oriented society. Many people won’t be interested in taking a look until there are flashy vids and other matter taking facing of the site. Right now, we’re playing hard into the blog-base - people who have the interest and attention span to actually dig into the material. Oh, and we are going to poll the Boll to see if he’ll direct. Adrian’s a big fan. *wink*

Oh,man! people think it’s about the myst GAME.



You go Nek! *worships at your feet*



Sweet mother of mercy! Those are some funny comments!

I particularly liked: “Brilliant! Now if they can just find a way to release it 1995 they’ll actually make a profit.” XD

A movie doesn’t have to be based off a recent story in order to fly. It just has to have a good story of its own. If the movie is good enough to stand on its own two feet, it will be successful.



Well done Nek’rahm.

It’s true, people who just hear the phrase “Myst movie” do think it’s going to be a film of the game. I linked to the press release in my Livejournal (smallship1 if anyone’s interested) and one of my friends said she really didn’t want to see a movie of Myst. I explained, of course…but it’s an ambiguity that might need to be addressed more obviously than it has been, if only to avoid comparisons with Bob Hoskins playing Super Mario. :)



*breaks open brandy* Anyone want a shot?

*Gunna go check the site for responses to my flame-inducing post*



Omg, no one flamed me.

Apparently, the average IQ is 100… but isn’t it “average” because the underaverage drag it down :S

Either way, glad to see some people just swallowed it (or didn’t understand any of it).

*SCREAMS* I cannot BELIEVE how many FOOLS there are out there that think this is a just a rehash of a slideshow and puzzles! Who the crap would eriously make a movie about that, use your heads people?! Makes me want to teach them a lesson….



Siempre Fi, puppy.

Down boy.



nice post, Nek’rahm.



*applauds for Nek’rahm*
Pwn the idiots. :D

(What? It’s just 100? … Maybe it’s the people on that thread who are dragging it down.)



what’s so f’ni about people dissing MYST and the MYST movie? o_O
