The Disillusioned BYONDer Digest

Well, after being featured on Slashdot, GameTrailers.com and GoNintendo.com, The JUSTIN BAILEY Conspiracy has been racking up some significant hits. We're the #10 most viewed comedy video on YouTube today!

It also looks like we now have a legitimate chance to make the front page of Digg as well, so anyone who enjoyed the video should definitely go to the new entry and digg it :)

The funny part is that my friends Joe & Luke who run baratsandbereta.com probably get 100,000+ hits on their videos every day, no sweat. It puts the small success that I've had with this video into perspective, but it's still fun!

Ironically, we shot "The JUSTIN BAILEY Conspiracy" last November, and I've been sitting on the footage for almost six months now because I was pissed off by how much the initial edit of the video sucked. Then I happened to randomly open the project file last week and re-review the footage... and after cutting about 40% of the dialogue, I decided it was good enough to finish.

Four videos inside of three weeks? It's madness!

Anyway, this new short is for old-school Nintendo fans and gaming nerds. Surely, most of you remember (or at least know of) the infamous JUSTIN BAILEY code?

No one has ever known the origin of the code's name... until now. All of your burning questions will be answered in"The Justin Bailey Conspiracy"

Dying to find out what happens to Intern? Mildly curious? Part 2 of The New Adventures is finally here!

The New Adventures of Ben & Jared -- Part 1 has been up on YouTube since last November, and I've finally got around to editing Part 2. Considering that we shot this entire thing almost a year ago, I suppose it's about time to release it!



Now we've been talking about making more episodes of this series for a long time now, so this likely won't be the last adventure of Ben & Jared. Hopefully I'll be able to shoot an episode and turn it around in less than a year next time :)

I thought that I'd be okay. I thought that I'd be able to resist. I was wrong.

I've never bought and Xbox 360, primarily because I know how much of a time sink it will become. Between Assassin's Creed and Halo 3, my writing/directing days would be over and my wife would never see me again!

That said, I've always planned to plop down the money for a 360 when Grand Theft Auto IV came out. Now that that time is here, I have way to much on my plate at the moment to be distracted by a game... and it's KILLING ME! IGN.com's 10.0 review of the game certainly didn't help. Neither do the hordes of screenshots, videos and developer interviews that I've been pouring over lately. Arg.

So while many of you are enjoying the godliness that is GTA4 in the coming weeks, remember those of us who aren't playing it.

Well, a new video is long overdue; and therefore I give you BEACH FORT, which is undoubtedly the most bizarre short I've ever made. I don't really know how to describe it... much less if anyone should even be permitted to watch it. Click the play button if you're brave enough...
