[BartholomewBojangles]

[DavidRayDog]

Whoohooo! That's Koriente in the bg in the intro - home of some very fine Korean food.

You guys rock!

[theresal]

damn, you were in Austin! If I was paying attention, I could've shaken your hand!

[Venus50]

They make me want to see 'Best Worst Movie' for sure. Fantastic comments from them on this being the best editing they have ever seen. That's pretty cool!

[HisManifest]

So, was that Tai Chi on an acid trip?

[reger3]

Best worst movie....The Man With Two Heads....

[dhlacey]

what was that? girl's room graffitti?

[PicturesForMyMom]

hahahaha great vid!!

[HODSteve]

You've done it again K80. You're AWESOME switch has no OFF position.

[HODSteve]

Wow way for me to mi-spell you're. =(

[Ninjujitsu]

Wow. They absolutely loved it. I'll definitely make an effort to see if it's released.

[bryandawkins]

Troll-free Troll 2 best of the delightfully bad movies Peter Howell May 01, 2009 04:30 AM Toronto Star Michael Stephenson's Hot Docs festival entry (it screens may 1-3) is not just the worst movie ever, but also the best worst one.

Stephenson's doc rounds up the Troll 2 suspects and finds director Claudio Fragasso (using the pseudonym Drake Floyd)still delusional ("I don't make movies to be praised by critics") but the cast mostly surprised and delighted by their back-handed renown.

[jpmccolgan1]

one bamboozled guy watching yea HOOTS (?) on the apartment blocks!! Never seen troll 2, I think...but the best worst movie so far for me have to be "THE BRAIN" and that crazy doctor blake is well crazzzy!!

[smootsky]

It kinda looks like you are interested in Mike. Are you?

[omega9jake]

OMG I love the Sleepyhead song thank you so much of it.

Rock on KA80BLOG!!!

[LectricNightConcepts]

Well, they went on about your film for like 6 minutes. :) Congratulations! I hope I get chance to see it some day.

[YoshisOneFour]

current

[MBRHIndustries]

Emos. xD

Looks like an awesome event, I want to go next year.

[razotan]

best 3:27 of my day :)

[jon4080]

Congratulations, you guys. I couldn't be happier for you.

Even the Totally Rad Show guys mention the editing. They NEVER do that.

Holla.

[tara8231]

Katie, I can't wait to see your film! I've always appreciated "terrible" movies ironically yet sincerely at the same time. I have a feeling your film explores this unusual point of view in a fresh and endearing way.

I have read great things about the editing in particular!

Keep us posted on screenings and releases, would you? You don't know me so I feel sorta stupid saying it, but I'm super proud of you. Congrats!

[JRock1591]

Great video K80

[cochos2x4]

KATIE IS THE SHIT>!

[TiffyC0okies]

"I can not help you. I can not help you in life" mwahahahaha luv it and y'all should have gone to EMO's its usually fun.

[tube02148]

these guys are about my age 30ish, it looks to me like they're a new generation of hippies, evolved hippies. How can i join? im a sandwich shop clerk.

[marshvernet]

well worth all that time away...dc was it? you made that amazing subway video there, i believe...you deserve all the praise for all your hard work...i look forward to seeing it...

[gallowspole]

[raynabeth]

Where can we go to watch the movie?

[andreous7]

Hoot of a Dude...Yeah :-)

[AboyNamedStitch]

Just looked at the Totally Rad Show review video: "one of the best edited movies I've ever seen. I think you could teach a class on editing using this movie." Congrats!

[popautor]

we like your vids!

[Magnulus]

Looking forward to the DVD! Could you submit it for the Edinburgh Festival so I can see it in the cinema, though? ^_^

[Shannoburger]

[eipselliGkereD]

Congratulations on the movie

[GrantBoone87]

Congrats on the success of the film. I read the article in Entertainment Weekly a few weeks back!

[NosePrint]

finally! a k80blog vlog! hmm, thought;Mike Long reminds me of Tom Green.

Congrats on the success of the BWM premiere :)

[1liljet]

Awesome! I will definitely go see Best Worst Movie when it comes to my town.

[Absydion]

Congratulations Katie!!

[jo3ly]

You are YouTube! Amazing.

[doppimus]

Congratulations on the review. I think I need to see the best edited movie. I hope there will be a way in the near future to see it.

[OMGitsaBLAST]

[riverjustin]

Sounds like fun!! I think I would have cried too:'(

[MentalHygienist]

Yay! A new K80Blog video! Moar please.... :)

[titania642]

[JustA11en]

Mike FTW.

Hoot of a dude indeed. Great track and vid

[NCDan]

A male version of K80? hmmmmm

[gypsy42279]

COOL!!!

[abobymous]

Wow K80, they were gushing about your "little film!" Congratulations. I haven't seen the Troll series but really want to watch this Documentary. Money quote, "You could teach a class on editing with this film."

How can I find Best Worst Movie?

[Nickronti]

I love Dipset.

[djvbb12]

I love you.

[bearchay889]

You can't go wrong with mike long:DI wish they hadn't got his dipset channel though.If your movie ever makes it to nc or tenn i'll try to go see it i have no funds to travel any farther than that.

[Beachapeeater]

Okay..even though you don't know me I am so proud of you! The reviews your movie is getting are AMAZING!!!!!! You deserve it! Now how can I get my hands on a copy of the documentary!!??

[K80Blog]

We're screening in Toronto next weekend at the HotDocs film fest. I'll keep everyone posted on my channel what will happen with it. Thanks for your support!!! : D

[ItalianStallionette]

very cool!

[K80Blog]

You're the coolest!

[bryandawkins]

I guess the best way to own the Troll 2 doc is a direct buy from the website of the production company after it plays the festival circuit.

[K80Blog]

I'll keep ya posted on where it will end up. If you follow me on twitter...i'll let you know if it's coming to your city. : )

[CloudofSmoke2]

That is great news! You deserve it! I hope this opens many doors for you.

[K80Blog]

Me too. Thanks! ; )

[naesmans]

he said the proclaimers r crap !!!!

they have one of the most played annoying songs ever that gets played probually at every wedding, disco, funeral......maybe not......nightclub....shitty ones!!!!

[mft1234]

Congrats on the great response to your movie! You are awesome.

[wisegeorge365]

I can't believe the Longer was in Austin. We are not worthy. Especially Sixth Street, South Congress is almost worthy but only almost. Did I see Fred Astaire tattooed on Mike's shoulder?

[K80Blog]

It's Vincent Price. : )

[wisergeorge]

Thank's. The second time I watched the video I thought it was Jimmy Durante. Ask your dad who he was. He'll know.

[fancyrants]

GLORIOUS!

[pepermint26]

you're crazy...love you

[ASECONDCHANCEAROUND]

AWESOME !!

lol

I sooo love your Suspenders

**Kisses**

[xenoneo]

wow, that was one hell of a review!

I have to see this movie now....but where and how? O.o

<3

[tomtom1989]

i love this video k80 listin if u have msn or facebook i need it! cos i have to show u somthing soo email me with it or somthing

[JamieVort3x]

"check out the video on the side"

wrong side ;D

[cycoG]

i watched the rad show.. i think that was what it was called.. the one you linked.. and they guy said the editing was really good!! and i was like k80blog did it!!! it was almost like i felt proud for a friend for doing something really good.. but not really.. you know what i mean? anyway i wanna watch this so bad. how can i get my hand on a copy? (i live in the uk) and well done, it sounds like people really loved it. and that guy even said it was the best movie he had ever seen :O

[K80Blog]

For the record, I'm not a ginger. I dye my head read. It's brown.

: (

[CommentorX]

Ok, K80Blog, I have a question for you. Does "Best Worst Movie" have either naked boobies or Nazis in it? Because, after 20 years of movie watching, I'm starting to get the idea that a film cannot be good unless it has either.

Examples:

Watchmen - boobies - excellent movie

Twilight - no boobies - sucked

Casablanca - Nazis - classic movie

Hanna Montana Movie - no Nazis - sucked

See? Clear proof that a movie must have boobies or Nazis to be good.

[K80Blog]

No boobs or Nazis. But crazy people galore!!!

[Sammerkona]

You might be on to something.  Schindler's List had both boobies AND Nazis, and was a Spielberg masterpiece.

[francisjutras90]

<3 Sleepy head

I love the way I've only known that song for a few days and that you used it your video.

Anyway! It was good to see you again.

Take care.

[K80Blog]

I'm current. : )

Thanks!!!

[celloguy]

Hi. I live in the UK - is it going to come out on general release here?

[K80Blog]

I hope so. Let's cross our fingers!!!

[anakin1814]

:-)

Love ya and miss ya K80! But hey, my poison oak is still clearing up, so we'll always have that!

[K80Blog]

[OddManOut23]

[K80Blog]

[OddManOut23]

[kellyrhodes]

"You could teach a class on editing using this movie." - Totally Rad Show Guy

CONGRATS! Can't wait until it is more widely available... though even then, I'm not sure it will be in theaters in the South.

[K80Blog]

Thanks!!!! Well...a good part of the movie takes place in Alabama so it should make it to the South! I hope so!!

[BaubleRob]

The Pictish Trail is the worst band name I have ever heard in all of my life.

[K80Blog]

Hear, hear!

[dcieniuch]

[nightworm]

[K80Blog]

Thank you so much!! : )

[Zublime75]

Welcome back dear :)

That was a nice video, I loved the hotel part, very cleaver! Oh and do you have those sun glasses in all colors???? :P

PS: Missed the painting!

[K80Blog]

Just two colors. : )

Love.

[blackanesian]

is it just me or did you re-upload this with better quality?

[K80Blog]

I did. Kept freezeing in parts.

[eskay2001]

Wow, these guys at TTRS were really thrilled about the movie. Did you do the editing?

After seeing the trailer I really wanna watch it, although I haven't seen Troll 2! (it never even came out anywhere in europe, I think)

Good to see something new from you! I'm looking forward to more vids! ;-)

[K80Blog]

My boyfriend and I edited the movie. Don't have to see Troll2 to enjoy the movie.

[Justinmazing]

At 1:42 I close my eyes and think yr talking about me. Shhh shh shh I know it has nothing to do with me but let me dream.

[silverscreamgrl]

oh oh oh and the popping up and down at the hotel. What was up with the dude who just stood in his door watching? Awk-ward. But funny at the same time because he just continued to stare. Then leave.

[silverscreamgrl]

laugh.out.loud. with the tai chi time :)

[betocoyote16]

[HesterMcLester]

[K80Blog]

[lisasimpson]

Aww you cried! I still want to see it at the Michigan Theatre in Ann Arbor.  Waiting...

[K80Blog]

*Crosses fingers.

[lisasimpson]

I sent a request to the director of the theater to do a double-feature! Do you need me to try and pull some strings? I happen to know his son... lol

[ngamer3k]

Cool about the movie, now what are you going to work on?

[K80Blog]

Why? You hiring?

[stars202]

5 stars for Sleepyhead!

[comeralli]

[TipsFromMike]

Right now, yes, then, no.  I was withdrawing.

Is everything about drugs?

I'm fucking AWESOME, all times.

[comeralli]

lol

Nope, everything isn't about drugs... just you(?) were... weird =0

[pinkj25]

[184928237]

Thanks! Love your vids!

[Theultimatebride]

Always hits the spot.

[K80Blog]

[henrysinaga]

[koolzies]

i wait on you to update like i waited for every harry potter book to come out. it's exhausting, but TOTALLY WORTH IT! <3

[K80Blog]

Expect it more regularly. : )

[184928237]

Could I ask, did you upload this video a few days ago then remove it for some reason? Because I swear I saw this under your new vids a few days ago. it might have been a dream though, I'm not sure. PLMK, i'd like to know if this is deja vu. Cheers

[K80Blog]

Yep. I removed it cause it would freeze throughout the video.

[NickAgostino33]

it seems like you're responding to everyone's comments so i thought id comment too!

whats that song called by the way?! i remember listening to it a few months ago now i forget what it is!

[K80Blog]

It's Passion Pit -Sleepyheads

[visaman]

Just in case nobody else said it ;-), yes this shit never does get any easier!

[bryandawkins]

Running a film screening group I found out there is nothing more magical than show time and screening a film that you fought like hell to get and knowing that it wouldn't come to the local multiplex. Getting up and telling 500 people why this film is important and after wards having a drink with some of them and having them say thank you, that is the shit.

I wish more people could get that rush like you found at sxsw. stay real

[melancholyguy]

Katie, I really, really, REALLY love you and admire your work!

You are so funny and spooky and talented!

I want to do the following

1) grip the sides of a hospital bed

2) birth you head first and screaming from my trembling, buckling legs

3) raise you to adulthood with all the riches money can buy

4) and attend your future films as your loving, doting parent! THAT's how much I adore you!

So when's your film coming to Baltimore?

[K80Blog]

It's coming to that area soon. Can't reveal the details for a couple weeks. Follow me on twitter for screening updates. Oh and thank you for the love. It raises me to the heavens!!

[AbuMalikPresents]

Yay K80blog! So where can I go see your movie?

[K80Blog]

It's doing the festival circuit right now and in the midst of the distribution dance. It will be in Toronto next weekend.

[jbadyna]

"He's a wonderful hoot of a dude."

I wonder if you'd say that about me.
