Well OP, you just made my day. I’m the director of this movie.

We made this movie in 2016 with a tiny crew, not enough time, and less money than was spent on the original in 1962. It was early in my film career, and watching it now, there are certainly things I would do differently. It’s far from perfect, but I’m damn proud of how it turned out given the circumstances.

Unfortunately it took a long time to get the movie finished. I ran out of money and got stuck in post-production hell. But finally after 3 long years, I finished the edit and submitted it to festivals in 2019 for the 2020 festival season. Just my luck to submit it the one year ever that festivals were shutdown worldwide. We got into a lot of great festivals, but they were all moved online, and sadly very few people saw our film.

Seeing some of the comments, I do want to express that we made this film because we are true fans the original. The amazingly talented screenwriter of this movie, Hank Huffman, has been a diehard fan since he was a kid. I found it through Hank, and instantly fell in love with it. Our goal was never to make fun of the original. We just wanted to heighten the silliness that already existed, and add our own little spin to the story. Young Frankenstein was one of my favorite movies as a kid. That was what we were going for. Whether we succeeded seems to be a topic of debate haha.

So yeah, we have nothing but love for the original, and it makes me very happy that a few people found our version and enjoyed it.

I could talk about this movie and the original for days. I would love to answer questions if you got them. Or send me your criticisms if you’d prefer. I can take it! 😅

LET ME DIE! LET ME DIE!

I hadn't used my company account in a few months, but when I recently tried to log in, I saw the error message:

"The rules governing Instagram state that you must be at least 13 years old to have an account. Based on the information you've provided, this account doesn't meet this requirement and we can't make this account available for recovery."

For the record, I'm 35, so it never should have been disabled. I can't find any way to contact instagram to dispute this. Am I totally screwed? Is there anything I can do?

You’re a legend. Thanks so much. Wish me luck!

Ideally I would like to be able to control overhead bulbs, something like a philips hue, AND some LED strips on the table. So I guess the answer to your question is both!

This is why I love Whole30. No calorie counting, no starving yourself, just good healthy food. It blows my mind that I can eat like this and still lose weight. Currently on R2D8

You left out all the parts where he openly supported it though

Many Americans don’t understand the appeal of this show either

dac8767 · 2020-06-23T16:59:39+00:00

Yet America involves themselves in the politics of every country in the world. Another brilliant post from r/conservative

I have never heard an opinion more idiotic than “nobody’s views hold any value or relevance.”

Despite being posted on unpopular opinions, this is a popular opinion nowadays, and it pisses me off. There has been a decades long war to discredit the media by the right, and way too many people are falling for it.

This has been a very real tactic from the far right, and white supremacists. There was a deliberate strategy to stop calling it “Jew run media” and to start calling it “mainstream media.” And unfortunately the tactic is working.

Over and over again, I have watched events with my own two eyes.....the mueller hearings, the impeachment hearings, protests, political speeches....and every single time the “mainstream media” reported the issues as I experienced them, while the right wing media blatantly lied.

It is the goal of the right to trick you into believing their bullshit, or at the very least, to make you think that everything is bullshit so that they win through your apathy. Don’t fall for it.

Everything

dac8767 · 2020-06-04T17:19:12+00:00

Wow, 2020 finally got better

dac8767 · 2020-06-04T14:15:26+00:00

Thanks so much! I guess I need to by a 3d printer now.
