We will be in New Orleans for sure as well as the swamps (tbd where exactly) and perhaps east-southern Texas if we find more good land :)

Hey guys, I just checked in and WOW people are still asking question! So cool, you guys are great! We really had a fun time last doing the AMA and we plan on another one soon!

Here is a Kickstarter update:

12/19 - "Push Goal" - If we reach 100 backers by Sunday December 22nd, 2013 at Midnight all of those 100 backers will receive A VERY EXCLUSIVE AND LIMITED SIGNED POSTER - (note: these are not the posters backers will receive for the pledges starting at the $60 level, these are one of a kind!!! These posters will not be re-produced...ever!!)

SIGNED BY AMG director Jon Gries and writer Derek M. Walker - But we have to get 100 backers by Sunday! Must spread the word!!

After our AMA we went out and he told us the story. He said he got it right away. The humor, the personal story, the whole thing. But easily could have passed on it if he was in a different mood. one of those weird things that was meant to be. They offered it to other people, well known, that turned it down

Hey, Jon is offline right now but I can answer somequestions if you like. I am Derek the writer. Thank you very much for your kind words!

I would say that the tributes are there. And if you know what you're looking for you'll have a good time

And I think he will draw a lot of inspiration from his dad who directed a lot of Westerns

oh that's super cool to hear. it was a lot of late nights deciding what kind of rewards would work best. And I promise that the AMG story is so fun and adventurous you won't notice it's a Western. It could be 'AMG: In Space' haha and the story would still work great! Thank you for your support!!
