From what I've listen to and what I've read it was a huge success. What can I say that hasn't already been said? Not too much, but right away there have been bootlegs surfacing. In a jungle of shaky images from YouTube of the show there are ones that are tolerable to watch, here's one of them:



But wait until the DVD comes out to really get what you're seeing.

Update: Hate to say I told you so...

Caught this in the NY Times. It is a transcript of the White House response to learning that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program way back in 2003.

Today’s National Intelligence Estimate offers some positive news. It confirms that we were right to be worried about Iran seeking to develop nuclear weapons. It tells us that we have made progress in trying to ensure that this does not happen.

So wait, they are right because they were wrong? Not buying it, assholes.

Take a moment and think about this. They are taking credit for solving a problem before they ever even knew that it was a problem.

Link to the article.

Hate to say I told you so....

But man did I ever call it!

The New York Times is now reporting about a national intelligence estimate that says that Iran halted it's nuclear weapons development program in 2003 after a cost/benefit estimate determined the program to be too expensive to continue.

No nukes. No intent to get nukes.

I called it, and now I'm going home.

More on this later.

Suprise!

So I'm giving you some info a day earlier than I said I would. But if you check back tomorrow you can think, "If I haven't seen it, it's new to me!" So anyway, the shoot will be continuing into a second day. It was bitter cold in NYC this past Sunday and it began to effect our actors and ultimately our equipment. In the mean time we'll be bringing you a podcast this month and we'll be hard at work editing scenes that have already been shot. In addition we'll be preparing for the teaser trailer this December as well as the first Behind the Scenes installment!

Moving on. I asked you all to keep this question in your head, "what is Chock-Full-O-Stroll?" Well ask and ye shall receive. Answer, it is a candy bar that exisits in the Niente Universe. It was constructed by myself and Steve Kompar. You'll be sure to see in featured in Niente: The Movie! Here's a few pictures of it being born:

New Shoot This Weekend

Ernie writes-

We will be filming the first scene in this next season of shooting for Niente: The Movie. I won't reveal too much about the scene but I will say that it is:

-Funny
-Delicious
-Pretty
-Action Packed

There will be production stills for your viewing pleasure once the scene is done shooting. I will leave you with a question to remain floating in your head, "What is Chock-Full-O-Stroll?" It will be answered on Thanksgiving Day. Following that answer you get those production stills I promised, as well as a new installment of Niente Radio!

Enjoy!
