Extended Preview: Bounty Tracker
Added 2020-02-07 18:59:48 +0000 UTCHi folks,
Erik here to kick off your weekend direct-to-video style with another Extended Preview. This time, for a movie riff that I feel is best explained in this single line from our product copy:
Lorenzo Lamas stars as a Bounty Tracker in the movie Bounty Tracker.
I don't need to say much more than that, do I? I've just published it on the site and you can find it here. Also, please note that there is an "Adult language" warning for this one.
On top of that, I wanted to connect all of our universes with this: a still of Mike and the bots on the Satellite of Love, dressed as characters from the one thing Lorenzo Lamas' is known for, "Renegade":
Fun fact: Lamas' character in that show, Reno Raines, was from San Diego. Mind. Blown.
Enjoy! Back with more soon.
Erik

Please don't forget to point out that having these two black actors play chumps to the one white actor ... was probably uncomfortable for all of them, and has to be some kind of crime. Why did the "bounty tracker" have to be white? Well, too many in audiences still get upset when someone non-white or female has a big role. Darn. You'll make it funny in a good way, I'm sure. :)

2020-02-07 23:16:14 +0000 UTCIf I ever become a bounty tracker who needs to infiltrate a predominantly African-American club, I need to remember the brilliant ruse of impersonating a posh, foppish, fancypants; interacting with no one but the superfluous bouncer; and putting a smoke bomb in the restroom (correctly assuming literally everyone will clear out of the club except for my two targets). As opposed to, you know, just walking into the club and doing that. Classic Lamas.
