This whole update thing is getting silly, huh?  I suppose it would be better if I knew someone was paying attention.  Yes, I know that YOU are paying attention, but how about all those other people?

So, here is the update, just for you!

Your fearless multi-hyphenates are in post production on Ghostfacers: The Web Series.  It is a scripted/reality hybrid based in the world of the CW hit series, Supernatural.  It tells the story of a team of goofy yet determined ghost hunters who “face ghosts” where others would not.  It’s really cool and one of the most challenging shows we’ve had to tackle.  The show stars AJ Buckley and Travis Wester with a spooky costarring role for Kelly Carlson.  We worked with some great talent on this series and it will be available to view on your 56K modem very soon!  You can read about the show here!

We also sold another feature pitch! This time to Nickelodeon TV.  We can’t discuss the details too much as we have just gotten started, but it promises lots of laughs and scares - just like a trip to your uncle’s house!

And in our usual roundhouse of event shows, we are producing all the clip reels for Hollywood Salutes Matt Damon: An American Cinemtheque Tribute.  Fingers crossed that I’ll be hanging with Jen Ben at the Beverly Hilton Bar!

Razor,

Wow, has it really been 225 days since we have updated this site?  I’m surprised you, our faithful readers (ie: mom), are still here reading this.  We would have given up a long, long time ago.  In fact, we did.

Anyway, since you last read about your clean shaven Hollywood big shots Patrick and Chris, we have delivered the 2nd draft of our Disney feature, Happy Little Family.  Now, the rumor is that they really, really like it and plan on doing something with it.  Not sure what that might be, but fingers crossed that the “something” turns into “making it in a international multi-million dollar sensation.”

We also co-directed the opening film for the CW’s Supernatural panel at this year’s Comic-Con in San Diego, California.   It starred The Ghostfacers and it was a huge success.  Now, you can pretend to have attended the Comic-Con and view the film by clicking this link.  (NOTE - In order for full  Comic Con experience, you must be either a.) wearing an ill fitting “Flynn’s Arcade” T-shirt or b.) believe you are TOTALLY like Bella.)

And lastly, we produced an NFL TV special celebrating the launch of Madden NFL10 video game.  It aired on VH1 and had some popular football “stars” like Joe Montana and Deion Sanders.   Eh, we’d never heard of them.  Oh, it also had a zombie in it.

That’s all for now.  Don’t smoke ‘em if you got ‘em.  They are most likely bad for you.

From the shotgun,

They say this is the year of "new media"!  I say, what happened to the old media?  And is there a revenue stream for middle aged media?

When it comes to good media, you can always count on your two best virtual friends, Patrick and Chris.  And as we move forward on the first draft of our Disney script, Happy Little Family, we can proudly call ourselves writers because it is official, we are members of the WGAW (no, not Witless Girls With Wombats - still waiting to hear from them), the Writers Guild Of America West!

So, we start off the year with a nice kick in the pants and as for you, stop eating half-off Christmas candy from Target and vow to play more video games in '09!

Paying bills,

Just in time for your pants-pooping Halloween fun, Silent Hill: Homecoming is in stores now!

In case you have forgotten, Silent Hill: Homecoming is the fifth sequel in Konami's long running survival horror video game series, Silent Hill.  Patrick and Chris spent almost two years writing the game and the reviews are in!  Check out what Variety has to say.

Also, check out here for some awesome new pics from the game!

As for the rest, Patrick and Chris are busy writing their feature, Happy Little Family, for Disney, as well as producing the packages for Samuel L. Jackson: An American Cinematheque Tribute.

Have a completely irresponsible Halloween!

Hiya.

Your bestest amigos in the world, Patrick and Chris have some really exciting news to tell you.  We have gone and sold a movie pitch to Disney!  Read about it here.

It's all very crazy and unbelievable.  Now we have to get down to the business of writing the best movie we can!

Happy little hugs,

Hi friends.  

As the year winds along, your best friends Patrick & Chris keep on trucking.  We produced and edited packages for this year's Kids' Choice Awards and just wrapped America United: In Support Of Our Troops which we produced at Marine Core Base Camp Pendleton.

On the writing side, we've been working with Ghost House Digital on a horror web series that we will be pitching soon.  And Silent Hill 5 has finally gotten an honest to goodness title — Silent Hill: Homecoming.  










Kids love  the new Silent Hill video game!

We've also updated the video section, so if you want to check out our Grindhouse trailer, Hollywood Vigilante, you can!  We know you've been asking about it and we've heard your demands.  It just took us a whole year to do something about it.

Sweet awesomeness,

pJ & Chris

Here we are.  It's only been one month after the New Year and you've already given up on hitting the gym once a week.  That's okay.  So have we.

However, things have been pretty busy for your favorite Jerks.  We recently produced and edited all of the nomination packages for the Critics Choice Awards, we just delivered a pilot presentation to Fox Reality, and we have a Valentine's Day special airing on VH1 Classic - The Top 20 Breakup Songs Countdown.  So for all you lonely hearts out there, get your tub of Ben And Jerry's Chunky Monkey and start crying in your spoon while humming away to some classic 80s breakup songs.

Also, we recently did an interview for a survival-horror gaming blog regarding Silent Hill 5. It's managed to have been picked up by some other sites like Kotaku and SilentHill5.net, and most of the talkback has been positive.  Of course, we have some critics - which is to be expected when you are dealing with a beloved title like Silent Hill.

Lastly, we have something totally cool and creepy on the horizon that we can't talk about yet - but as soon as we can, you (our three readers) will be the first to know.

Hey everybody,

We just wanted to give you an update on everything that's been going on.  

We recently produced and edited the packages for the American Cinematheque's tribute to Julia Roberts.  The show taped October 12th and will air on AMC the first week in December.  We are now recovering Mystic Pizzaholics and hope to be better soon.  Keep us in your prayers.

In Silent Hill V news, the game was recently featured on the cover of EGM Magazine and has also appeared in the UK's Playstation Magazine and Germany's Playzone.  Scans of those magazine articles can be found here!

Silenthill5.net is also the best place to find images from the game, news, and all the wild fan hypotheses surrounding the game's plot you could possibly hope for.

We'll update you with more info soon.

Hey everybody,

As many of you know, we've spent the last year writing a video game we couldn't tell you anything about.  Well, last week at the E3 trade convention Konami finally announced the title...Silent Hill 5.

For those of you who know video games, this is the latest installment in a very popular psychological horror series.  There was even a film released last year based on the first game, and a sequel is in the works.  For those of you who don't know video games, ask a young person to show you how they work.  They're kind of like computers you plug into your television and... oh never mind.  Just know that the game is very violent and very scary.  So, it's for kids.

We just spent two days in the VO sessions with the actors, and they were great.  And if you saw the visuals they're putting together for this thing, you'd lose your mind.  But it's not going to be released until next year, so don't expect us to be able to tell you anything more than we just have.  Oh, except we will tell you how to get thirty free guys on Contra.

Look, it's an update!

As many of you know, we spent April and May working on the Taurus World Stunt Awards, the biggest award show you've never heard of.  It's an annual event honoring the stuntmen and women of the industry, and it was an absolute blast.

We got the chance to interview the top stunt people in the business, as well as Steven Spielberg, Bruce Willis, Dom DeLuise and many more.  And we got to watch the entire show from backstage with our announcer Mr. T.  A dream come true.

As always, we produced all of the nomination packages for the show, as well as tributes to Burt Reynolds, Gerard Butler and stuntwoman Jeannie Epper.  We also directed a few short films, including one in which host Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson knocks on Gerard Butler.

Unfortunately, the 2 hour-plus show had to be viciously cut down to fit its 66 minute time slot on AMC, so many of our bits were re-edited or didn't air.  Fortunately for you, we've posted some in our videos page!

Next up, we've got some additional writing to do on the video game over the next couple months as well as a few other projects in the works.  We'll update you with anything exciting that happens anytime soon.

Thanks!

Well, it's March.  Do you miss us yet?  That's what we thought.  Monday begins our next adventure, producing all the packages for the Taurus World Stunt Awards.  Yeah, that's right, a whole show devoted to the guys who light themselves on fire and drive cars off bridges.  It's already shaping up to be a very fun show, and our fingers are crossed that we get to direct some of the short films again as we've done with the VH1 shows.

In addition, we're still plugging away at the video game, wrapping up most of the writing over the next couple weeks.  The boys upstairs say the game will be announced this summer, so as soon as that happens, you'll be the first to know.  No more secrets.  We know, secrets are fun.  We're sorry.

In other news, the Jerks recently directed a short film as part of a contest being held at the South by Southwest Film Festival.  The assignment was to create a trailer for a fake 70s exploitation film in the vein of Quentin Tarantino's and Robert Rodriguez's new film Grindhouse.  Click here to find it on You Tube (not available in Turkey).

So wish us luck and say a prayer that Patrick doesn't have to be launched off a ramp in a Dodge Charger.  Hey, it's all for your entertainment.

It's a new year!  Have you already broken your resolution?  Typical you.

The Two Jerks, once again, embark on the video game project.  For those following closely, the game itself is a two year work in progress, so our job as writers spans the course of six months over those two years.  We worked on the first part last summer and now we have returned, #2 pencils sharpened and ready.  We promise, promise, promise that as soon as we can tell you what it is, we will.  Then you have to promise, promise. promise that you'll buy it.

In the meantime, we have our various scripted projects each in various states.  None of them are in the "sold" state, but that's just a matter of time.

That's all for now.  We hope you had a fantastic holiday and wish you all great prosperity and good times for 2007.
