Well the weekend was one of the longest and most painful film making experiences in my life and it wasn't due to the time constraints. We shot and edited "What is that Sound" in the same amount of time using 3 people at the most at all times.
But I'm not going to blog about how much fun that weekend was. I just wanted to post the finish product for all to see. The creative team behind this gave up a ton of funny to satisfy the uncreative teams ability to argue every point until neither party new what they where arguing for.
Knowing that, I give you, "Feathers of Fury". It's Robot Jox with Pillows.
Man I loved Street Hawk as a kid. I loved it more than Night Rider or even Airwolf (although I still love Jan-Michael Vincent the most out the actors from said shows).
When I was a kid my friends and I would make up names for ourselves when we played fort or war or whatever. I picked Jesse a lot of time because I thought the guy that rode the Street Hawk was so freaking cool. Other times I picked Michael or Marty.
I even wrote a young authors book in 1st or 2nd grade (sorry to make you feel old there Jeff) that was basically a spec script for an episode for the show. Of course, it was only 10 pages long, but that show should have probably only been about 10 minutes long to truly be worth watching.
What happened to the guy that rode the Street Hawk? Surely he must lie inbetween the fates of Jan-Michael Vincent and the Hoff. Well, I'll let you imdb it yourself. Let's just say if you are a fan of the stage musical Pirates of Penzance then you must be a fan.
Some interesting trivia is that he turned up on Cobra, a Micheal (American Ninja) Dudikoff vehicle (pun intended) that was a about a guy that solved crimes in his suped up Cobra car and answered to the principal from Back to the Future. Then in 98 he was on Baywatch. So I guess the guys in those "Drivers of specialized crime fighting vehicles" genre kinda looked out for each other.
Wow Cobra, that's another story.
Here is show open complete with 80's style synth. You can see why a kid would be interested. Why would adults be? I don't think they were. It only ran 13 episodes, but whats the excuse for Airwolf and Knightrider? HuH?
Here is Jesse testing the Street Hawk. Awesome. He even says "I'm on the way back to base"! We called everything base back then. Later, meaning fast forward the clip if you know what's good for ya, he uses the sweet laser to get rid of some thugs.
ha well this is a ron paul add from youtube. but damn does it punch the bush admin in the gut. especially Satan's son Donald Rumsfullofshitfeld. Open Your Eyes!
Take from this what you will. I think it is a ploy to get the million nessie vid viewed man caught on youtube. I give credit where credit is due.
this kid took this video whilst on the Adrian Shine boat tour, the cryptozoologist that I have a pic with in my Scotland section.
It's very inconclusive and my brother and I witnessed some really weird wave action in the Loch ourselves during our expedition there. I should post some, cause it will catch you off guard.
It seems that the first image is waves, and the second he zooms into the mountains? Am I looking at it wrong?
here is the article from the excellent Cryptomundo.com that has the boy and his fathers hilarious quotes: cryptomundo new nessie article . it also has the links to the original flash vid of the footage.
here is the new youtube footage, let me know what you think.
looks like the mountains and the damn news f'd with it, right? wake, then mtns.
here is my million billion hit nessie vid i posted a while back. notice the hits.
Giant squid found off the coast of california. Santa Cruz to be exact. yeh, great surfing there.
so why doesn't Dustin go in the ocean anymore? why does the great surfer, the soul surfer, the man that could be found curing his hangover via mother ocean on early weekend mornings surfing the break off the jetty near the tybee lighthouse not go in the oceans waters any more?
well because the f'ing giant squid is going to get me.
and you are going to see more and more of these kind of reports. sure, it's just the beginning. just a butterfly's wings at the other end of the world right now. but it's just gonna get much, much worse. and i don't wanna be the first known human in recent history to get pulled down and chomped on by its giant evil beak.
and if thats not enough for you then read some hp lovecraft. that will send you screaming from your beloved coasts.
