Need a Favor, Ain't It Cool ?

This is a poll.

My film is playing at a film festival with a movie called "The Roost."

This online poll will determine which films Aint It Cool News will review. Needless to say, I want them to review "The Roost" so they see my short film.

If you could click on that link and choose The Roost, you will be doing me a favor beyond the clouds of Olympus.

Right now I am tired. I saw Todd Solondz new movie today. If anyone is a fan I'd love to talk about it tomorrow.

Again, "The Roost" :

I just had a good night's sleep. Impressed to see that "The Roost" stayed up there through the night.

Thanks for the kind words, auhsor. I was in Knoxville Tennessee with limited internet for several months. My student org's website is now keeping me pretty busy.

4th place is still pretty secure. But 3rd place seems to be a bit too far. Good luck by me too!

Adamski · Mon 14/03/2005 18:39:52

I voted once and i'll vote again.

Lotsa oldbies hanging around today.

Consider yourself voted for, indirectly I suppose. Or something. Not much sleep this weekend, sorry.

pslocum · Tue 15/03/2005 02:22:27

Voted.

LGM · Tue 15/03/2005 03:50:39

That's what I'm thinking, too.

I'm glad that you're working on film stuff, too; that's awesome. But why have you abandoned us, man? :'(

Actually, from what I've learned you really gotta make a choice on what you really like to do. There's not enough time in life to do everything. Kinda sucks.

Cool, we got a packed house at the screening tonight.

I haven't decided if this makes my film fortunate or not - but "The Roost" was actually not that popular of a film. I could tell by the kinds of "Q & A" questions:

"Why did everyone die?"
"Why bats?"
"Uh, was that really film.. or just mini-dv?"

Some aspects were really impressive, like the sound design and the computer generated bats.

BUT my movie "Dos Blokes" killed. People laughed their asses off for a glorious 4 minutes. It was great. Thanks for voting everyone, I'll share the short with you one day. Its best viewed with a crowd.

I hope that people relay to their friends that a four minute short was more outstanding than an 80 minute feature.

The thread title has a mesmerising sound. There is some 4 syllabal technical poetry word for it, but I can't remember.
Need a favour, aint it cool
Swing your partner, doe see doe

Ummm...yeah, I voted. Even got my friend to do it, just for the heck of it.

Babar: I think it's called a catalyctic trochee - four trochees with the last beat left out.

Czar · Tue 15/03/2005 18:43:53

Ok, I did the popular thing to do too.
And when is the deadline btw?
I believe that Oldboy could actually be a really good movie if at the start he already has this advantage (OK, or it could be the friends part), but in anyway what are the Roots about?
I have my citizen duty to inform myself of the material i have just given my precious undenying vote...

...trichomes....mmm...

Sure, that other movie is one to look forward to, but look at it like this:

What advantage does voting for Oldboy hold? That it could possibly be reviewed by Aint It Cool News? Trust me it has, or will in the near future.

"The Roost" or "Dos Blokes" needs all the help it can get during the film festival in order to start a snowball effect to show the films to more and more people.

You want to know about the Roost? its about 4 friends who experiece car trouble near a farm. They check out an old barn and discover a horde of ravenous, zombie inducing bats. The rest is obvious.

c.leksutin · Wed 16/03/2005 19:47:27

you made a zombie flick? I'll be on my way to AZ shortly, maybe I should stop off in TX man (yeah, zombie bats still count as zombies!)

C.

evenwolf · Wed 16/03/2005 20:48:27

No the zombie movie is the feature length film that my short plays with.

Mine is about cannibalism and female youth.

LGM · Wed 16/03/2005 23:43:26

Oh.. That gross one with the bilemic girl?
