My Two Cents – Volume 1
It was an honor and a pleasure to watch two feature length films from two gentlemen who have their roots in the genre of the fan film. Having them graduate to the next level of their passions was a genuine thrill. I share with you my thoughts on both productions. As always these are my [...]
It’s My Fan Film And I’ll Cry If I Want To
Something interesting has happened in the past week so much to the point that it sparked me to write this article for the Fan Film Follies. On November 11th, 2011 the fan production “Superman: Requiem” made its debut online. I was very interested in watching this effort as it’s been a well promoted fan film [...]
The Chronicles Of The Order
If I was in charge of the Sci-Fi Channel I would do away with wrestling, the cheap, crappy weekend horror movies and any ghost hunting that happens to be going on. Oh wait. It isn’t the Sci-Fi channel anymore. Some overpaid genius in a suit changed the company branding to Syfy because the issue with [...]
S: A Superman Fan Film Review
Superman is not an easy character to bring into a live action fan production. Let’s think beyond the logistics of special effects. I’m talking just about the character of Superman and the disguise he wears in the form of mild mannered Clark Kent. We’ve certainly seen a representation of the character in fan favorite films [...]
What’s Up With The FFF
UPDATE! It is done. JustHost.com is now just a fleeting nightmare. We’re happy to see the site back up 100% and on a service that doesn’t go down multiple times in a month. Now bring on some fan films!
The Ultimate Star Wars Commentaries
Beyond the occasional stupendous fan film I’ve really been disenchanted by the whole Star Wars universe for a few years now. It just doesn’t hold the excitement for me it once did. Perhaps because I’m older now or perhaps too much Star Wars over kill or maybe a combination of the two.
I remember the years [...]
Fan Film Follies Top Ten Star Wars Fan Films
Recently Time.com asked the fans their choice for the top ten Star Wars fan films of all time. The final list is a mish mash of very good fan films to mediocre fan films. I’m not even sure how “Sith Apprentice” made it on the list. Perhaps the people behind that film rallied for votes. [...]
Mash It Up Part Deux
A couple columns back I posted a number of videos that are classified as MashUps. To review, a mashup is a series of professionally done film clips grabbed from a movie, television show, or a variety of other media and woven together to tell a cohesive narrative. In this case we’re going to talk the [...]
How To Use Fan Film Follies
A lot of questions I get in my email box are directed to how to get the fan films that appear on the “Follies” site to DVD. So I decided to dedicate this edition of Adult Child of Alien Invaders on how to utilize this website and how to enjoy these films.
Singing Iron Man Versus
Flying into US theaters Midnight on May 7th is Iron Man 2. I mean do I even have to throw out that little tidbit of information? Even if you aren’t an Iron Man fan you can’t help, but to find an advertisement in every magazine, television show, and website relating to the soon to be [...]
