Mittens 2009: Have You Paid THE MASTER METER?

[Pesty]

I can 100% guarantee that I made everything up as I went along. There was probably some sort of plot involved, but I was mostly unaware of it.

[Creed Malay]

I got all the plot outline (so far as me got with it) and character notes RIGHT HERE. Gimme a bit and I shall type them up.

*edit*
Okay, there is *lots* of this, this is the cast list and character motivation stuff, the first bits we worked out. As you can see, there are a lot of characters that iddn't make it into the final abortion. We were sort of overreaching our capabilities, I think. BUt man, it would have been awesome.

CAST

Wembly (Adam) - Instpector Petes bumbling assistant

BOrn again christian, flipped out when he realised his party tricks are THE WORK OF THE DEVIL and uses his madness as an excuse to kill. Murdered Detective petes mother 12 years ago.

ANd that was a lot of typing. I'll type up some of the plot outline and stuff soon.

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

Is 'hotman' a typo or an admission of Mills' machismo?

[AGA]

Davy and Mills hooked up. Pretty sure someone took photos/video.

[DutchMarco]

Not that I have much to add, but just letting people now that I'm still alive, typing this from inside of an Apple store (ab) using their internet connection on one of their computers.

I have just visited the MOMA in Saint Grundislav (San Francisco)while I'm not at all into modern art, I have been thinking of Jess a few times, since she's not the only artist who's into penii. Pictures will be posted end of the month when I'm home.

Internetting costs money, but here in the Apple store it's free (until you get kicked out) BTW, I 've discovered that the Florida climate is typical (though extreme) for that of most of the USA, here in SF is the  first time it is  cold (not hot n humid)during all my travels so far Man, Virginia Beach was uncomfy. Multiple showers in the day were needed (no wonder they complain about water restrictions!), not that I did that, I'm not that extravagant...
Anyway I managed to put in a little Mittens-related comment, back to Mittens!

[Pumaman]

Ok, the Mittens Video is finally here!

PLEASE NOTE: This video is not suitable for children. Everyone at Mittens was over 18, and therefore you should expect there to be adult themes, language and content in the video. DO NOT DOWNLOAD this if you are under 18 or have sensibilities about this kind of thing.

Some people have expressed interest in a DVD of this; I do have a higher quality DVD version that's too big to upload, but we can probably arrange some sort of DVD copy-and-mail-it-on thing if other people are interested.

[Esseb]

Where's my check? The Screen Actors Guild will hear about this!

(Excellent film)

[Becky]

Brings back so many memories!   Thanks for this CJ!  Adamski and I are very interested in a DVD-type package!

Sorry to intervene but why not make a torrent, a handy way of spreading this dvd-version?
(I also did with the 5-years-mags-collection).

[Domino]

Thank You CJ, that was some real funny stuff. Enjoyed every minute of it. AGA (Ray Liotta) cracks me up.

[Creed Malay]

 Truly wonderful, and it was really nice to see some of the stuff that was going on while I was in different parts of the house/city - we didn't deliberitly abandon you when we went for falaffel guys, honest!.
Really nostalgic, makes me fell all , but a good kind of . A beautiful momento of one of the best holidays I've ever had. Cheers, Chris.

Now where's the road trip one?

[Domino]

You all have to watch the video, there is

Spoiler

BOOZE, BABES, SINGING, ROAD RAGE, PENIS GUN, APPLE PIE, A GUY NAMED HANK (A PROUD AMERICAN), FOOD MADE WITH SPAM, FIREWORKS, SMOKING, HOT TUB, AGA, MALT LIQUOR....

[close]

I give this video a 3 Thumbs Up and is funny as Hell. Check it out.

[Pumaman]

Where's my check? The Screen Actors Guild will hear about this!

Hmm, but I thought you were a member of the Film Actors Guild ... or is that just AGA?

Glad you guys enjoyed the video ... sorry about the soundtrack still playing during the 4th July fireworks singing, every release always has a bug!!  

Oh, also, I've finally updated the Mittens titles on the forum here, the meanings are the same as before:
1 = Mittens Initiate
2 = Mittens Faithful
3 = Mittens Regular
4 = Mittens Liege
5 = Mittens Addict
6 = Mittoholic
7 = N/A (nobody has been to 7 mittenses!!)
8 = Mittician

[AGA]

Hmm, but I thought you were a member of the Film Actors Guild ... or is that just AGA?

I'm not a fag  

7 = N/A (nobody has been to 7 mittenses!!)

No one is even close to being in the same league as us, clearly.

[DutchMarco]

Okay, after a long (and warm! well, mostly) stay in (several parts of) the USA, I have come home and uploaded my photos:
http://picasaweb.google.com/rpost01.o5/MittensViceEdition09?authkey=Gv1sRgCKCM1ZjBjNSRsQE&feat=directlink
More photos are underway, of the Museum and zoo visits in Miami and of the rest of my vacation (not that you'll care about that).

P.s. Chris, I can live with not haing fired a gund while in America (nor having been shot at - I think I can [literally] better live (longer) without that) but having missed the strip club (you never mentioned that!) peeves me a little. You never mentioned you were fixing to go there (well, not in my vicinity anyway).

OK, this one of the Museum in Miami is done already:
http://picasaweb.google.com/rpost01.o5/MiamiMuseum09?authkey=Gv1sRgCITfvZeI2-mGogE&feat=directlink

Jess, I took some photos in honour/memory of you at the SF MOMA:

(just look for the ones tagged with the text "Ms Finkenstein")

So you thought the master meter was a nuisance, here's what I kept running into in Baltimore:

[Grundislav]

Hey, I finally got around to uploading a couple of videos I took on the very last night at Mittens where

Disco and Pete got into a knife fight!
and
Limes were used as metaphors

[Pumaman]

Some people have expressed interest in a DVD of this; I do have a higher quality DVD version that's too big to upload, but we can probably arrange some sort of DVD copy-and-mail-it-on thing if other people are interested.

Ok, the DVD version is now available!
If anyone who went to Mittens wants a copy, send me a PM and I'll send you a link to download an ISO of the DVD (which is 3.79 GB).
