February Update

Howdy GGN,
Just wanted to update you on the progress of whats to come. The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay video is coming along nicely and I've found a wealth of insight and tidbits to include. Unlike many of the games I've covered recently there is actually A LOT of documentation and interviews/commentary from the developers. It will of course include coverage of the 1.5 version, Assault on Dark Athena and I also touch on the films/greater mythology of the character. If there is one thing I've always found admirable about Riddick it's that there has been a pretty consistent push to make content around the character even after it was clear that it wasn't drawing in money or an audience. At least TWO people out there REALLY want the Riddick-verse to happen. I expect this one to run at least around 2hrs, but there is a lot to work with and it's been exciting seeing it come together.

Business number two, I've decided to move forward with a script that I'm deep into for a patron-only video. Like a lot of people, after the passing of David Lynch I did a lot of thinking about my history and relationship with his work and well, words started coming out of me ("ideas" as Lynch would say while wiggling his fingers) and it seemed to turn into a retrospective of him as filmmaker and inspiration to me. He was of course many things and just thought of himself as an artist living the art life, but I knew him through film/TV so that was just an easy way of making a structure to the thing, but hopefully it will function more as an excuse to go into what each piece meant to me and what memories/anecdotes I have of them. I've been really sporadically hopping between the two scripts as ideas flow from one to the other so both are moving at a brisk pace, but leaving me in a strange state of mind between Vin Diesel and surrealist horror. After hearing the news I made that little Photoshop collage and I think I'll probably use it as the thumbnail unless I think of something better hehe. Anyways, just wanted to keep you in the loop and thank you for all your support. Hope you're doing well, ideally goth and gaming simultaneously <3
