Brandon Paine of Shoreline Entertainment. Yes we are artists and we make film for the love of filmmaking. But if we can get distribution and make a few bucks that will go a long way towards helping us make more films! With that in mind we invited Brandon on the show to talk about just that.

Producer Stephen Blackehart came on tonight and we spoke a lot about the indie film he produced, Lollielove, starring and directed by Jenna Fischer. Also starring James Gunn. Sometimes you like an indie film because it's an indie film and you take into account the limited resources the filmmakers had in putting together their work. This mockumentary was just plain hysterical.

Guest Lloyd Kaufman, the head of Troma Entertainment. Lloyd is a funny straight shooter who has been in the business for over thirty years... VERY knowledgeable... His company produces, distributes, and has a film festival that is 8 plus years and running and is naturally called Tromadance (and yes it's in Park City in January).
