$$$ by caravaggio	Jan 15th, 2007 12:43:53 PM
so what's the prize?
Time to put your money where your mouths are TB's! by Talkbacker with no name	Jan 15th, 2007 12:50:16 PM
A lot of people bitch about QT's and RR's movies and what's wrong with them here. Time to put up or shut up! I'll be doing one that's for sure. Sounds great fun!
sounds easy to win by caravaggio	Jan 15th, 2007 12:51:39 PM
bet i win it
I'll be submitting... by Dr Gregory House	Jan 15th, 2007 12:52:56 PM
"Transvestite Pussy Eating Ghouls from Uranus". I'd like to thank the Academy, in advance.....
how to win this contest by caravaggio	Jan 15th, 2007 12:58:09 PM
1. rent 42nd Street Forever 2. jack 3. collect no money for hard work
MetalWater, you are the type of person... by Talkbacker with no name	Jan 15th, 2007 01:07:45 PM
...I was talking about. The prize as I see it is for aspiring filmmakers to get their work shown to the public at a very cool event. Not only that but could also open up a few doors and be able to get some much need publicity for work...plus it's a fun thing to do! People like QT and RR are out there doing what they love and providing a lot of entertainment for people. you on the other hand sit at your computer putting people down and not really doing anything with your life. I really hope you are not deluded enough to consider yourself a film lover tut tut.
MetalWater's on to something... by caravaggio	Jan 15th, 2007 01:12:10 PM
"torturous twosome of terrible trashy troubles"- the grindhouse trailer. that's a winner!
why should it, MetalWater? by Talkbacker with no name	Jan 15th, 2007 01:29:29 PM
It's cool enough they are doing this. Why does it HAVE to be in the movie? Who died and made you king of the zom...er film makers? You just don't get it do ya? It's not about winning a prize.
industrious hungry filmmaker types GOTTA EAT by caravaggio	Jan 15th, 2007 01:29:56 PM
publicity is so easy to get now days. how many people are going to see the "grindhouse trailer contest winner at SXSW? a thousand? how many people would see it on youtube/ myspace/ links from AICN in a day?
MetalWater... by Zarles	Jan 15th, 2007 01:31:31 PM
...kill yourself. You obviously get no joy out of life at all, so it's the only reasonable answer. Christ, you make the jackasses in the Lost talkback look downright slaphappy.
Oh I have the perfect idea by mukhtabi	Jan 15th, 2007 01:34:47 PM
Nothing like redneck sex... and fireworks! BUWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Nationality of winner... by Brendon	Jan 15th, 2007 02:04:36 PM
..open to worldwide contestants? Or US residents only?
MACHETE IS COOKIN THE BOOKS by DOGSOUP	Jan 15th, 2007 02:30:17 PM
By "Cookin" I mean overshadowing the other trailers enough where I want to see a full length Machete movie starring Danny Trejo. Fuck yeah!
Like caravaggio said... by BannedOnTheRun	Jan 15th, 2007 02:45:18 PM
The consolation prize these days is that you can post your losing video to YouTube and potentially be seen by many thousands more than would have seen it at SXSW. You need to read the fine print, though (all submissions become the property of, etc.). I do see MetalWater's point: look at how many generations of musicians have been boned out of royalties in exchange for the chance to "be seen and generate publicity." 'Cause we all know that indie filmmakers GOTTA EAT TOO.
"Let's shoot this fucker!" - Martin Balsam as Bela by Doctor_Sin	Jan 15th, 2007 04:09:39 PM
Drag-racing Nazi zombies? Vampire biker chicks/girl gang? Pimps and hos vs alien invaders? Yeah - Let's do it.
I'm a plant? by Zarles	Jan 15th, 2007 04:50:49 PM
Bullshit. I'm a Venus flytrap, motherfucker. MetalWater, whatever medications you're on, up the dosage. Negro please? Fuck off, ya little turd.
Trapped in a......... by MrFacety	Jan 15th, 2007 05:09:18 PM
It's sometime in the distant future. Political correctness has prevailed. Our chick loving heroes take a road trip to a concert and have engine trouble. They have broken down in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the country. One of the most dangerous GAY neighborhoods in the country. Clinch your fists and cheeks kiddies its.... BAD MAN IN FAG LAND coming soon................
BAD MAN IN FAG LAND by MrFacety	Jan 15th, 2007 05:36:35 PM
EXT.GAS STATION. NIGHT A hulking police officer walks slowly towards a stalled and now classic Cadillac Escalade. He leans into the driverside window while his hand remains on his holstered weapon. COP (extremely effeminate voice) Hey, motherfucker. The driver and his pal are shocked by the voice not matching the image. He scrambles for a pistol hidden between the seats. CUT TO: BLACK The words CUMMING SOON blaze across the screen.
STOP WINING. by MrFacety	Jan 15th, 2007 07:18:04 PM
I've written Eight scripts and have tried for years to get them optioned. No luck. I made sure I got a degree so I can pursue film making without being angry. Film school isn't necessary to be a film maker. Get a degree morons. Hollywood loves that they have your dream in their paws, and their favorite fuckin word is NO. No aint stopping me from getting laid. I drive a 5 series with or without the bloodsuckers.
That's Martin LANDAU as Bela... by Osmosis Jones	Jan 15th, 2007 09:37:27 PM
...you limey cocksucker. ;o)
regarding Metalwater. by DocPazuzu	Jan 16th, 2007 12:49:17 AM
...He's rapidly becoming the new Fettastic of talkback. The guy can't type one single sentence without irking scores of other talkbackers, no matter how innocuous he tries to be. Just check out this post, his take on what Star Wars would have been like under his protective wing: http://tinyurl.com/yg8ole
MetalWater by DocPazuzu	Jan 16th, 2007 01:16:27 AM
Surely even you must have understood that I was referring to the series, not ep 4. Either way, your comments about the SW universe pretty much sum you up.
Why must they make a cheap shitty sequel? by LittleDudes	Jan 16th, 2007 01:53:58 AM
CAUSE STUDIO GOTTA EAT.
I would actually like to do this by Franklin T Marmoset	Jan 16th, 2007 02:41:24 AM
But I'm not sure these guys would accept a trailer starring a Butters action figure. What am I going to do, though? This is the best acting talent I can afford to hire. That son of a bitch complained all the way through the filming of Franklin T Marmoset's The Hobbit. It's all hookers this and coke that and per diem the other. Fucking actors. Anyway, good luck to everyone who enters this Grindhouse promotional opportunity, which I agree is a fun idea.
Metalwater - Did you ever consider... by GilesT	Jan 16th, 2007 05:25:40 AM
...that maybe they want to see what the quality of entries is like before they go out on a limb by saying that the winning trailer will become part of the film? If even the best entry isn't up to par, they'd seem like tossers for reneging on their promise to include it. On the other hand, if its really good, and they do THEN decide to include it in the final edit, 1) the winner gets all the more kudos for them never having made it part of the competition in the first place, and 2) EVERYONE gets more media coverage cause now its even more of a story. Just a thought...
GilesT, of course he didn't think of that by Talkbacker with no name	Jan 16th, 2007 05:32:19 AM
the guy doesn't have the ability to think. Trolling on the other hand...
So now I'm a gay plant. Awesome. by Zarles	Jan 16th, 2007 08:41:25 AM
So you're a raging homophobe too, eh? Quite the resume you've got going there. So have you killed yourself yet? We're all waiting.
some ideas: by gride9000	Jan 16th, 2007 12:23:23 PM
9999 AD this one would be a futurama type plot, but only hot women and ninjas exist in the year 9999 AD! LATTER-DAY SINNERS Mormon Girls gone bad party and fuck their way through those tough college years, but end up teaching everyone the importance of friendship. THE BALLERS One brother: on his way to basket ball dreams, the other brother (from the same mother) is a coke dealer with a mean streak. When the ball players best friend is gunned down by a drive-by, he seeks revenge on his own kin. FIST OF THE LEPRAECHAUN On St. Patty's day a lone warrior is sent to use his "Clover Style" against a league of extraordinary Leprichaun warriors.
i agree by wanna_bannana	Jan 16th, 2007 04:29:05 PM
Metalwater is a fool,and has no credibility in his arguements as far as i am concerned. He complains for the sake of complaining. There is no positive thinking for him/her, Metal dislikes everyone more talented/smarter. And from the way he bashes QT and RR, you would think he was bitter about being bitched slapped by the first of the two? hmmm.
Serial Killer Scavenger Hunt by TheDudeinLA	Jan 16th, 2007 08:58:48 PM

Is Making Sure MetalWater Is A Real Asswipe, Wrong??? by Zarles	Jan 16th, 2007 09:44:00 PM
Because if it is, I don't want to be right.

Prepare yourselves for: SLASH HIVE (aka 12 WASPS FOR SOLANGE) and TRANNIBAL FLESH FEAST........ Coming to Texas in the mail very soon.......
Don't care abt a prize by soylentphil	Feb 12th, 2007 01:35:19 PM
But how can we find out if what we sent was shown? And putting it in the film is an idea that's too late. Put the good ones on the DVD.
