	Hey Guys, I am pleased to announce that we will be having the premier of Fanboy on Friday June the 12th at the Yeiser Art Center in downtown Padaucah just down from Crash Comics in the Market House Theater building. The doors will open at 6 for a meet an greet, costume contest, and trivia challenge. The movie will start at 7:30 and will be followed by a QnA with the cast n crew. Please start promoting the event to everyone you know. The seating is limited so as you find out how many will be coming with you please start posting below so we can try and keep a running count. We also need to have our costumed members suit up, there will be alot of kids there (hopefully) and it would be a cool event to troop. Also, we need donations of sw toys and collectibles for door prizes and trivia winners, so please post or pm me if you can help us out. This is gonna take place the weekend of the Supes Fest so hopefully we'll get some attendees from that, that means you jedimika, lol. This is going to be alot of fun and I hope every club member can be there and bring thier friends and family! pv -----signature----- 2010 is going to be an epic year!!!!

	Awww...thanks for thinking about me. Yes! I will be there. Mrs JediMika is working and may join me for Saturday/Sunday but that's still in the air. I'm excited you all are doing this during MSC, it gives me one more thing to look forward to. I would have thought most of you would be going to AdventureCon that weekend. Do you have a street address for the theater so I can mapquest it? This should be fun, I wasn't expecting to have to pack a Star Wars costume for this weekend...or maybe I should pack a Browncoat costume lol.

	WOW!!! That poster is super SWEET! It got quite a reaction at Sam's last night when it was being printed. I'll be bringing teriyaki meatballs and carmel peanut bars for sure. Possibly rice crispy treats or something else as well. -----signature----- "All the men in my life keep getting killed by Candarian Demons."

	Not to take away from anything that Michael has provided and done for us (he has come thru for us multiple occasions when he didn't have to, i.e. OMG)for that I am extremely thankful. But I thought Wil had already done the theatrical release poster? I thought this was the dvd art? Everyone put in a lot of time and effort. I don't think that we ought to use this as the theatrical poster when we already have something we all approved and had printed up. Twice. Again, this is my opinion, however, I know that TKYTrooper agrees with me. Michael and Wil both put in work on their projects. Both should be respected. Or has this already been decided? -----signature----- my derby has a first name, it's R-O-L-L-E-R....boop Curse your sudden, but inevitable, betrayal!...boop

	Wil's art is so good and iconic, I am including it on the art for the DVD to mimic what Lucasfilm did with the DVD OT release with the unaltered original movies on disc 2, and on the insert. So both his art and mine will be on the DVD. No offense was meant to Wil, or to take away from the excellent poster art he did. Was not my intent at all. When the Hildebrandt brothers did the poster art for Star Wars in 1977, I don't think John Alvin thought they were dumping on his original work. They compliment each other. There were several posters and artwork created for Star Wars in 1977 - and I guess I was capitalizing on the notion. It was not hard to go from the aspect ratio of the DVD cover and enlarge it for a poster. It was not my intention to offend anyone by doing this, or to diminish the excellent work Wil did. I was just using Hollywood terms to describe multiple posters done for a single release. When putting the DVD cover art together, I noted that the cover could make a poster. When I sent the design to PV to review I noted that it could be made into a poster also. So you can lay blame for the idea on me. I honestly did not consider how Wil or anyone would feel. I simply get zealous in serving and doing what I can for the club and sometimes I forget that some folks take my eagerness the wrong way. In attempting to put a happy thought on this, I think not only is Fanboy probably the longest running feature-length fanfilm yet made, how many fanfilms have more than one original piece of artwork made for it? The difference in the art Wil and I did is very important to note. Because Wil's is by hand, true artwork by any standard - what I did was in Photoshop, so there more commendation for what Wil did, and I think it is very easy to tell his artwork is by hand and that mine is a digital manipulation of screen grabs from the film. I hope they both are helpful in promoting YEARS of hard work done by everyone in the club in putting this film together. I apologize for using the term "Release poster" - I was being a bit too Hollywood I guess and did not realize the notion was offensive.

	Like I said, Lord Invar, your contributions have always been welcome and appreciated. Dude, you KILLED as the emperor! And you are right, man we have had a shit-ton of paraphenalia and artwork on this fanfilm. How many others have custom buttons and t-shirts? We even will have other shirts on cafepress. It really has been a collaborative effort. EVERYONE has put in on it and it is close to everyone's heart. We really have made it more of a star wars homage by merch-ing it to death. Now we just need Fanboy: The Flamethrower. The kids love 'em. -----signature----- my derby has a first name, it's R-O-L-L-E-R....boop Curse your sudden, but inevitable, betrayal!...boop

In my mind's eye I can actually see PV in the boardroom at Hasbro pitching them to do a Fanboy line of figures ala the purple-carded Shadows of the Empire line! After all, there's nothing like being immortalized in plastic and having thousands play with you now is there? Of course we expect with this line to have an Escape copter vehicle and perhaps a Convention Playset complete with inflatable Death Star Ball that rolls down the plastic steps.

	Thanks to everyone who came out to the movie last night, we packed it out and there was standing room only. Thank you to everyone that trooped and brought food, we couldn't have done it without you. We will hopefully not have that technical glitch at the Maiden screening that we had last night, lol. Spread the word about the Maiden showing and well see everyone there in 2 weeks, thanks guys! pv -----signature----- 2010 is going to be an epic year!!!!

	You all throw a great party! It would have been worth the trip even if I wouldn't have been in town for Superman Celebration. See you all again the 27th!
