48 Hours - The Heat is on!

So tonight was when our heat was playing at the Paramount. *whew* It was a bit nerve wracking. There were a number of really interesting films, and some really not so good films.

All in all, it seems that everyone had a lot of fun making their movies - some will be forever burned into my mind (Supertran, I'm looking at you...) and others were somewhat forgettable.

We were fortunate enough to have a very slick but very pointless "horror" flick before our movie, so the comedy of Hypochondriacs - the Walking Goldmines really hit a mark. People laughed and it seemed that the entire theatre applauded at the end of our film. In fact I got the sneaking suspicion that we got the loudest applause of all the films that played. But that could have been my imagination.

The presenter certainly liked it and made a comment that it had something for everyone - and we got more raucous applause when we were asked to stand up. :) So fingers crossed that we at least make it to the top 40 films to be chosen before the finals.

The film really managed to stand up well against the competition, and I was pleased with it - although I can see where we need to improve some things. Hopefully Project TWC will help us develop the necessary skills to up our game. :D

It was hard to vote for films I liked - there were a number of great movies to choose from. I ended up choosing Supertran - for being a memorable GBLT entry, and for being kind of funny in parts. (That moustache did make him look hot...) My other choice was Oh Illium... which was an atrocious film but very funny. And there was a kind of hot guy in it. LOL!

I probably should have voted for Homekill, but the revenge seeking hedgehog was likely to get a lot of votes anyway... :D

So yay! Here's hoping that all went well, and that we get to the next stage!

Love and Huggles
