Sweet Pals Chicago Branch

I thought it was about time we did a little Chicago post. Here are some of the best parts of what i saw at the festival thing we went to. They were real good. Let's take a look together:


whoa nelly those kids are talented





Also, i hereby induct our Chicagoan folk into the sweet pals, therein instating the first out-of-country division of the Sweet Pals, the Chicago Branch. Welcome Noe, Dina, Frank, Berto, Seth, Adam, Sarah, Kain, and everyone i forgot about because they don't matter as much and i hope they see this and get real sad about it. Well that was harsh. That was just a joke. If i did miss someone important, i'm sorry. I'm high.

HEYO Everyone

So i've probably talked to everyone about this already cuz i think it's super neat, but actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt:



pictured here as child, has a produciton company called hitRECord.org. It's super cool cuz it's an online community/pool of talented folks who upload their ORIGINAL (obvs) what have-yous (ie: Film, Writing, Music.... etc) and give access to the hitrecord community to use their stuff and remix it as their own. Sometimes JGL sends out open calls for submissions and remixes to have possible chance of film festival submission and such and possible $$ earning!

Heres an example of possibilities if say Tinki had an account:

1- he uploads the movie store prank call
2-someone could download it (he'd be notified)
3- they remix it in with a piece of their own work
4-tinki can download anybodys stuff and use it to mix with his work

2(b)- say JGL says "hey guys! i wanna send a short film to Sundance about corn let's see what you got!"
3(b)- tinki remixes his voicemail to be laidover top of a short film (and miraculously it's picked) tinki makes it all the way to sundance!

Anywho that's just a brief. Check out the site it's really cool and something of the sweet pals shoudl be on it combined we have a lot of creative talent. I linked it in the title.

Oh and here's a short that they just submit to SXSW! It's super cute and remixed by a bunch of peeps!

HOLY PFERDEFLEISH, FLEDERMAUSMANN! SPACE NAZIS!

So apparently the Finns are making a dubyah-dubyah-two alternate history movie about space Nazis.

Yup! Iron Sky, which is set for release in 2011, has been funded almost entirely through online donations, and so far the production company has managed to collect more than $1.2 million dollars US from fans. The film, which is nearly completely computer generated except for the live action actors, will be available to subscribers world wide via the internet upon release. It's being directed and produced by Timo Vuorensola and Samuli Torssonen, the creative duo who brought you STAR WRECK: In the Pirkinning (Fucking Finns.).

Anyway, the premise is that in 1945 German scientists working at a secret research base in Antarctica develop advanced anti-gravity technology and launch rockets to the moon. At their secret "Nazi Moon Base" they build a fleet of spaceships, and in the year 2018 they return to Earth seeking hot schnitzel and cold vengeance! Take a look for yourself, the trailer looks pretty nuckin' futs.

As with any internet b-film, we can assume there will probably be a reasonable amount of sillyness involved with this movie. From the looks of the trailer however, the CGI looks pretty solid, and the music choice was enough to give me goosebumps. Speaking of music, Slovenian industrial/neo-classical band Laibach have been slated to do their soundtrack. These guys are seriously fucking weird, and are probably an entire article to themselves.


Laibach

All sillyness aside, this looks like it could turn out to be a really cool movie. From the looks of the trailer, the filmmakers clearly aren't trying to make it into something it's not. Nothing's worse/more hilarious than a b-movie that tries to look like they had a huge budget. (Ex. Uganda's First Action Movie: Who Killed Captain Alex). Providing the writing and acting isn't too bad, this movie could end up garnering some serious recognition. Either that, or it'll go down as just another stupid fucking movie.

If you want to donate to the project or just get some more info, check out the official website.

Listen to this mufuggah too. Villains remix of Ares by Bloc Party.



Happy Thursday, pals!
