This Whole thing is a Joke Thanks for leaving us all holding the bag Pat.

John Francis Daley is now 23 and is playing adult roles. After the mediocre release of Fanboys I don't know if anyone will be eager to distribute a film like this which was shot several years ago and has "troubled history" written all over it.

Not only did I go to Warren Highschool but in mid school his (ex)wife was my art teacher, we are friends on face book and he assured me a 2009 theatrical release ( at least limited) While some of you may be be disgruntled or in disbelief I have a real life seven degrees of separation from Patrick let me explain.

There are no guarantees when you invest in a film. It may come out, it may not. You take your chances. I am an investor also and I am not WHINING and casting blame. Nor am I rich. But for goodness sake, quit your belly aching. Jasmine and Sally. There are no guarantees when you invest in a film. It may come out, it may not. You take your chances.

He should be arrested for fleecing investors who believed in him. Eventually they all get caught and Karma comes around. Beware Patrick.....

It would have been a decent film had it not created so much bad karma for itself. I think Its time for Patrick Read Johnston to step up to the plate and admit that this film never would have been made with out the initial kick from the small pool of investors that believed in his Script from day one , and sunk there hard earned money into it. I personally would like to know if Patrick has any plans to Make right the actions of his E.P Stefan Kaleta ? or is it just simply another Hollywood F.U ? If this is the way Patrick approaches film making its really no wonder why the film has taken so long to get distribution, even with such Industry greats Fred Roos and Gary Kurtz attached. Warning, Investing in a Patrick Read Johnston film will make your bum sore. A disgruntled believer/investor The Executive Producer of Patricks 5 25 77

That's a great post Sean. It's not often I eagerly await an indie but this takes the cake. It looks way better than Fanboys. "To other people movies are what they go to when they're tired of real life, while you go to real life when you are tired of movies." I don't believe that was an exact quote of the trailer but godammit that really shot me in the heart. As corny as it sounds, it was if they were talking to me! I'd like to think my current body of work is not centered around emulating effects that I can't pull off though. I keep it real on my no budget guerrila shorts. Whoa! That’s a great post Sean.
