There’s pros and cons about going to smaller film festivals or ones in their infancy. Sure, there’s more of a chance to chat with the actors, writ-ers, directors and producers but it’s also pretty rare when that the films playing the film festival are actually any good. But for the Austin Indie Flix Showcase (the festival is now called Austin Revolution Film Fest) that was definitely not the case. The film lineup was a blast and featured a wide range of subject matter and genres from horror comedy to intense documentaries and dramas.

But I have to say that the Friday night screening at the Blue Star Drive-In was my favorite night.

Not only did we get the newest installment of the “Werebitches” saga, I finally got to see my first episode of the award-winning web series “Pete Winning and the Pirates” on a huge outdoor screen (more on that in the cover story).

And one of my most anticipat-ed features at the fest, “Army of

Frankensteins”, also screened that night and did not disappoint. Hopefully everyone will get a chance to check it out soon.

And as always, it was a blast hang-ing out with all the actors and film-makers before, during and after the screenings. It was a ragtag bunch for sure coming in from all over the United States, each with their own harrowing tale of making films.

I didn’t want to return to my home-town and I was sad leaving all my new friends behind with their organic tequila and Shiner Bock, but I do have a family and a job to do.

So until next year, Austin, when the fest returns, I’ll be waiting here in my small town looking forward to what new and exciting films will be showcased.

movie review

Live. Die. Repeat.The film’s tagline pretty

much sums up the prem-ise of Tom Cruise’s latest foray in to sci-fi cinema “Edge of Tomorrow.”

But it’s all the twists and turns that make the film worth watching. That and all the humor sprinkled in to lighten the otherwise heavy tone of the film.

Tom Cruise plays Bill Cage, who is a highly dec-orated officer that’s basi-cally just been marketing human’s war on aliens. He does TV appearances to make the world feel at ease about the battles and assures the human race that we will win.

Then he gets tossed into battle on the frontline.

You see, he’s just basi-cally a puppet with med-als and no prior battle experience. So he tries to get out of it any way he can but instead gets arrested and labeled a deserter.

He’s pretty much just a giant wuss.

So, he gets thrown into battle, and after kill-ing an Alpha alien and he himself dying, Cage awakes the day before he died, only to go through it all over again. And again. And again.

Every time he dies, he wakes up on the same day. He meets Emily Blunt’s character, Rita aka The Angel of Verdun aka Full Metal B*tch, who’s an awesome kill-ing machine. She knows

what’s going on and tells Cage to find her when he wakes up.

We soon discover that Rita once possessed the same powers as Cage, and they forge a plan to defeat the alien threat once and for all.

First off, the film is fun. The action is top notch with huge explosions and tons of giant guns firing off every second. The sol-diers in this film wear these robotic suits that make them super strong and extremely fast and are packed with all kinds of artillery. Each suit is different and caters to each soldiers specific bat-tle techniques, and they create tons of damage.

As I mentioned before, there’s a lot of humor in it as well. During his train-ing with Rita, every time he gets gravely injured he must be reset, which is usually by way of bullet to the head. It’s gets very comical and makes for many h u m o r -o u s scenes.

T h e music is also spot on. The huge score and soaring o r c h e s t r a l track lends itself to the over-the-top action sequenc-es while prov-ing the film is truly an epic.

Doug Liman was a great

choice as a director. He playfully blends his style of action and comedy in the same way he did with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in 2005 outing “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” He toss-es in the ridiculous but in subtle ways as to have the audience believe that it could happen.

Overall, the film is fantastic, even if you’re not a fan of sci-fi. It’s an all around exciting and innovative slice of cinema that audiences of any age can enjoy.

“Edge of Tomorrow” is now avail-able on DVD, Blu-Ray and Video on Demand.

‘EDGE OF TOMORROW’ trivia• “Edge of Tomorrow” is based on the manga and novel ‘All you need is kill’ by Hiroshi Sakurazaka.• The first writer on the film, Dante Harper, who did not receive final credit, sold his spec script to Warner Bros. in 2010 for over $1 million.• Tom Cruise spent over $100,000 on a lavish wrap party for the cast and crew. He did not attend him-self as he was finish-

ing his scenes for the movie.• The film was released in the USA on June 6th, 2014, which was the 70th Anniversary of the D-Day invasion dur-ing WWII. The film is based around

an attack on Normandy

Beach.• Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling

were

originally considered for the role of Bill Cage.• Tom Cruise’s first movie (outside of the “Mission: Impossible” films) to gross over $100 million domesti-cally since the 2005 film War of the Worlds (2005).• Emily Blunt’s char-acter is named Rita, a possible nod to the love interest Rita from Groundhog Day

(1993).

local film

When the hor-ror film “ S C U M ” was finally

released in 2010 at the local Rio 6 movie the-ater, it had been over two and a half years in the making. The movie was shot entirely in Beeville and featured most of its cast from the small town as well.

It had its premiere on three consecutive days at midnight which all sold out, still leaving fans eager to watch it and unable to do so. It was entered in a number of film festivals and gar-nered a few awards, then all seemed quiet on the filmmaking front.

But during those four years, writer/producer/director Paul Gonzales was busy honing his craft working on short films

and on independent film sets, even making brief cameos as an actor in other film projects.

“People always ask me what I’ve been doing since ‘SCUM’,” Gonzales said. “Well, the truth is I’ve been writing. A lot.”

Even before “SCUM” was finished filming, Gonzales was already writing what he thought would be his next film.

“I had written another horror film called ‘Bad People’ and then tried raising funds for it online, but it just didn’t get any-where, so I just kept on writing.

“The thing about writ-ing film scripts is that it’s free. There’s no budget restraints, no actors to cast, none of that head-ache. You just keep writ-ing and writing and tell-ing all these stories that

hopefully you can make into a movie one day.”

And that day has final-ly arrived.

Gonzales’ eighth film script since “SCUM” is called “A Funny Girl” and revolves around a literary agent who begins to feel the sting of the eBook and online self-publishing, so he decides to leave his company before being fired like many of his co-workers.

He strikes out on his own and starts his own independent agency and meets a young female comedian; the two of them enter a quick, yet jaded relationship. He soon discovers that love is a funny thing.

And in case you were wondering, “A Funny Girl” is not a horror film.

“People just assume

that I’m this horror movie guy. I don’t even really like Halloween,” Gonzales said with a laugh.

“I made ‘SCUM’ because horror mov-ies are easy and can be made inex-p e n s i v e l y . I’m a movie fan first and writer/direc-tor second. This may seem like a departure for some, but to me ‘A Funny Girl’ just feels like a movie I would want to see.”

The film has started its fundrais-ing campaign on Rockethub.com where you can search for “A Funny Girl” and donate funds and get official film products like shirts, caps, posters and even VIP pre-miere tickets.

And the unique aspect of the fundraising cam-paign is that the film-maker will give anyone who donates to the proj-ect one’s money back once the film is completed.

“I don’t do this to make money. If you donate any

amount of funds, you’ll receive it all back when the film gets released and begins generating profit as a thank you for merely helping us out.”

So, after four years of tackling the film world, Gonzales seems ready to suit up and get back in the game.

“The decision wasn’t easy. Making movies is really tough, especially low-budget indie films. But it’s just something I feel like I have to do. And because I live in a small town (that) makes it even harder, but I think enough time has passed, and all my battle wounds

have healed.“This film just feels

right, so here I am once again. And the lessons I’ve learned making

‘SCUM’ are already paying off. We’re talk-ing with talent-ed actors from Canada, Austin and L.A. who are eager to work with us, and we’re build-ing an experi-enced crew, so it’s starting to get exciting.

“It’s bigger than the first film, and we’ve got a lot of tal-ent that we’re ready to put to work.”

If you want to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the indie film process, Gonzales will hold a script read Saturday, Oct. 11, at the House of Rock, 511 Starr St. in Corpus Christi, from 2 until 4:30 p.m., and it’s free and open to the public.

You can follow the film’s progress at Facebook.com/afunnygirlfilm, donate at Rockethub.com or email Paul@stxscene with any questions or comments.

Movie number 2Four years after his horror film ‘SCUM’ hit local theater screens, Paul Gonzales is back with a new film, just not one you’d expect.

‘The decision wasn’t easy. Making movies is really

tough, especially low-bud-get indie films. But it’s just something I feel like I have to do. And because I live in a small town (that) makes it even harder, but I think enough time has passed, and all my battle wounds

have healed.’

cover story

Canadian indie film auteur Mike Donis is making waves (literally) as Pete Winning in the swashbuckling pirates with lasers web series “Pete

Winning and the Pirates”ryan fisher photo • rainyfreshpictures.comstory by Paul Gonzales

When I attended the Austin Indie Flix Showcase film festival a

few weeks ago, I met Canadian filmmaker Mike Donis. I’ve been hanging around James Christopher (Twitchy Dolphin film studio head honcho and festival coor-dinator) and have met so many people over the years I just assumed I’d met him before.

We sat around and chatted a bit throughout the day and would run into each other and make small talk.

Now, I had heard of the web series “Pete Winning and the Pirates” (which Christopher also co-writes) through posts on my Facebook page but never actually watched any episodes for one rea-son or the other. I was

looking forward to finally watching an episode that night at the drive-in por-tion of the festival.

So, when the time came and the episode opened, there he was. That gen-uinely nice, unassum-ing chap that I had been talking to for the past two days was on a giant screen kicking a** on the high seas with hot chicks and lasers.

He was Pete Winning. And I had no idea.On screen he’s this awe-

some mix of Harrison Ford and Tom Cruise with a dash of Bruce Campbell’s debonair camp, and he totally owns the role. I mean, he looks born to play this action hero, yet the guy’s standing next to me laughing at how much I’m geeking out over him.

And I can’t believe he’s

just a regular guy in real life.

“I think I am one, the last time I checked,” Donis said with a laugh. “The doctors tell me I’m a normal guy.”

A Pirate’s TaleThe strange thing is he

wasn’t originally set to play the lead character of Pete Winning in the series.

“I wanted to act when I was young, and I would make movies with my cousins and brother and stuff, and they would always complain that I was too bossy,” Donis remembered.

“So, I was talking to my mom about it one day, and she said ‘You know, mov-ies have directors. And maybe you don’t want to act, and maybe you want to direct.’ So I said, ‘Yeah,

I think I do.

“I started focusing on directing, and I totally for-got about acting being a thing I even liked doing.”

So, when he got older he worked as a video edi-tor and began directing his own projects.

There was a contest

for a film festival that wanted action short films, so Donis and crew got to work.

“I needed a guy who was able to drive a boat and willing to jump into Lake Ontario which was 8 degrees Celsius,” Donis said.

“And I was like, this doesn’t really matter; it’s just a quick little thing for a contest, so I’ll just play the part.”

But then the short film became a hit at festivals and won some awards. So, naturally fans began asking if there was more, if this was just an episode of a series.

“At first it was just like, ‘No, this is just a dumb little pirates-with-lasers thing that we did.’”

But they did eventu-ally decided to create a

series based on the fur-ther adventures of Pete Winning.

“And then we had a big discussion, like, we need to get a real actor to play Pete now. We can’t rely on you because we want to get someone good, so who do we want to get?” Donis said with a laugh.

“And we had genuine discussions, but we just couldn’t think of anybody that would be perfect for him. So we were kind of stumped.”

At the Bare Bones film festival in 2012, Donis won the Best Actor award for playing Pete Winning and that just might’ve sealed the deal.

“So that gave me a bit of confidence, I guess. So then I said, ‘Sure, let’s just give it a go. I’ll be the guy in the show.’ And

‘ So, acting was just something

I stumbled into and am

really enjoying right now. It’s

something I’m actively pursuing. ’

MAGICMIKE

P. 7

that was it.“So, acting was just

something I stumbled into and am really enjoy-ing right now. It’s some-thing I’m actively pursu-ing.”

The Man Behind the Laser

There’s so much mixed into the character of Pete Winning that the ques-tion had to be asked: what are you’re inspira-tions?

“As an actor? Well, that’s an interesting question.

“As Pete Winning, I’m not thinking of it as an actor necessar-ily. I’m thinking of it as more of a storyteller. But the kind of action hero like Harrison Ford would’ve played in the ’80s, or Bruce Campbell in the ’90s TV shows like Hercules and Xena and stuff like that. That

blend of genuine action with a hint of camp.

“And, of course, the personality that is Errol Flynn from back in the day. ‘Robin Hood’ or ‘Captain Blood.’ Those things are definitely things that Pete Winning

also calls to and draws from.”

The series is currently midway through sea-son two, and you can definitely feel the series tone changing and mov-ing away from the camp aspect of the first season.

“When we were doing season two, the story takes certain turns, and in order to make that honest and believable, we really had to figure out—I as an actor, too, had to figure out—who Pete Winning is.

“So what we’ve kind of done was—I hope that, when you see all of sea-son two, the vibe that you get from it is—that Pete Winning is playing Pete Winning. That whole (sarcastic tone) ‘Hi, I’m here to save the girl’ is him doing that and not who he really is.

“And who he really is is just a regular Joe. He’s the guy who is put in these extraordinary cir-cumstances and has to figure out how to get out of them and how to make things right.

“We have fun with him a little bit. He’ll be doing the Pete Winning thing, and sometimes it doesn’t work. And I think that

it’s something really cool because as an actor that was something that I always had in mind in season one, but because the story never tested in that direction, you never get to see that it’s him putting on an act.”

NowadaysAt the moment, Donis

is prepping the final epi-sodes of “Pete Winning and the Pirates”, which go online every Wednesday on Dailymotion.com. But that doesn’t mean he’s not already working on a ton of stuff during.

“Okay, so I’ve been get-ting into the acting scene more recently, and I’ve

James: For season 2, Mike, Aaron Tsang (the other co-writer) and I got on Skype and mapped out the story. I took a more involved role in it for season 2. I wanted to push it in a more dark, intense direction. So we met, hammered it out, then I wrote draft 1, mike rewrote it, then I rewrote him.

STX: Have there been talks of a Pete Winning movie? James: There are lots of ideas of how further PW adventures could go. But we like the serial format. But there are very many ideas of how this can go.

video games

It’s official. Microsoft has acquired

a brand new company. For the amazing sum

of $2.5 billion Microsoft bought Mojang, the com-pany behind the indie smash hit video game Minecraft. This latest acquisition has the gam-ing community buzzing with concern, speculation and also excitement.

Minecraft was a sim-ple 8-bit looking game, This indie sandbox game, developed by Swedish computer programmer Markus “Notch” Persson, that has taken the gam-ing community by storm.

It’s a randomly generat-ed open world game that has no specific goal and is roughly composed of 3D cubes arranged in a fixed grid. It’s up to the players to explore the numerous generated caves and tem-ples or gather resources and construct everything from simple stone shacks to massive castles with moveable components.

Notch had no idea his simple game con-cept would become such a monumental game. To date, Minecraft has sold over 50 million cop-ies across various plat-forms. With a game that has become such a global phenomenon, it was no surprise when it quickly outgrew the small indie company.

This was in part the reasoning behind selling Minecraft, according to Owen Hill, Chief Word Officer of Mojang. Mojang simply did not have the necessary resources to grow Minecraft on the

scale that it deserved and that the players wanted.

“We’ve worked closely with Microsoft since 2012 and have been impressed by their continued dedi-cation to our game and its development,” stated Hill.

Microsoft has provided its Xbox users with exclu-sive skins and textures that can be used inside the game.

Despite Mojang’s confi-dence in their company, selling to Microsoft has many Minecrafters con-cerned for the future of their beloved game.

Minecraft users who do not play on Windows or Xbox platforms are concerned that their ver-sion of the game will no longer be supported and developed. Microsoft was quick to put those con-cerns at ease. In a pub-lic statement after the buyout Microsoft stated there would be continued availability and develop-ment across the other platforms.

Which, honesty, is only good business.

As of June 2014, over 12 million copies have been sold on Xbox 360 and 15 million copies on PC, taking into account that PC also included Linux and OS and other non-Windows operating systems. That’s roughly 40 million users and their wallets that would be lost if they decided on can-celling Minecraft on the other platforms.

Another reason for con-cern among the fans of the open-world game is that founder and creator

Notch is leaving the com-pany once the sell has gone through. Fans are wary that, once Notch leaves, Minecraft will lose it spark. But what people need to remember is that Notch stepped down from Minecraft months earlier. Notch was a simple com-puter programer that just happened upon a genius game concept. He was thrust into the spotlight, a place he didn’t neces-sarily want to be.

In a heartfelt post on his personal blog, Notch states, “I didn’t have the connection to my fans I thought I had. I’ve become a symbol. I don’t want to be a symbol. I’m a nerdy computer programmer.”

Notch later went on to say that, while Minecraft belongs to Microsoft, in a bigger sense it belongs to the fans.

I think that one simple idea will hold the future success of Minecraft. When Microsoft bought Mojang, they didn’t just buy Minecraft, they also bought the legion of die-hard fans that went with

it. It was the fans that made Minecraft so huge. The majority of users that I have met or talked to found out about Minecraft through word of mouth or gameplay videos posted on YouTube. I don’t envy Microsoft. They have basically put themselves in the line of sight of tens of million of fans who will not be afraid to speak up when they feel their beloved game is being mistreated.

It is too soon to say whether this acquisition will be a positive or nega-tive experience. As a huge fan of the franchise myself I can only hope that the future of Minecraft will be bright without a Creeper in sight.

Now go forth and game on.

been in a few produc-tions and have had some pretty cool opportunities this year.

I was in James’ “DisAssociationVille.” I was in a short film by John Hyatt called “Return.” It’s a horror film, and I’m really excit-ed about that one. I am going to be shooting in Montreal for another web series called “Heroes of the North.” I’m playing a superhero in it. I was in another horror film, a feature called “Late Night Double Feature” earlier this year.

Donis has also been directing between proj-ects. He works as a free-lance editor, director and basically everything that has do with film.

So, what drives the young man, and what does he ultimately want out of life?

“I want to not starve to death and keep doing what I’m doing. I think at my heart I’m a story-teller. That’s why I enjoy acting and enjoy direct-ing. That’s why I enjoy writing and producing. That’s why I enjoy all those things. I love mak-ing movies.”

And how long will he be making movies for exactly?

“Until I’m sick of it. “I’m enjoying life so

much, that sounds super cheesy to say, but it’s true. And I’m loving it, so why would I want that to stop? Why would I say I want it to stop later if it’s great? If it stops being great, then I’ll want it to stop then.”

But, until then, the world has a new hero.

And his name is Mike Donis.

local night life

Nothing says “Saturday night” quite like a party, and the Roaring ’20s got its nickname for a reason...

Corpus Christi was roaring for sure a few Saturdays ago at the Museum of Science and History down-town. The gala honored Doc McGregor, the photographer who documented Corpus Christi’s evolution through many decades.

There are about 250,000 photos on

display which demonstrate the chang-es the city has experienced through McGregor’s lens. His prints and spe-cialty items were for sale and there was also a chance to make your own silent film.

This classic speakeasy had the goods—hooch, food and music. And for a moment (actually from 7-10 p.m.), you really did think you were in the 1920s.

Fun times.

“Pete Winning and the Pirates” season 2 episode guide...so farcheck out new episodes every Wednesday at Dailymotion.com/PeteWinningAndThePirates

season 2 episode IV: “For the Glory” In this special extended episode, Pete and Grace come face to face with the debonair

(and diabolical) Captain Crimson and his crew in their own personal lair with hopes to steal, barter for or gain information regarding the third map of the Queen. As could be expected, things don’t happen exactly as they’d have planned... If you like pirates, adventure, romance or sci-fi, be sure to tune in next week for more excitement!

season 2 episode II: “The Best Laid Schemes” Pete and Grace decide to team up with One-Eyed Bill in their search for the Queen’s

maps; Eva sends Jane and Finch to do some reconnaissance in the hopes to find information about Pete’s whereabouts. Instead, they run into a beautiful, mysterious woman who shares a history with Pete and Carmen...

season 2 episode III: “On the Shores of Crimson Island” Pete, Grace and Bill plan to infiltrate the lair of the vicious Crimsons in order to

get the Queen’s maps from Captain Crimson himself. Meanwhile, Jane and Finch reluctantly decide to set sail under the captaining of Skyler, leaving Eva to fend for herself from behind bars.

season 2 episode I: “Behold One-Eyed Bill” Shipwrecked and split up, our rag-tag crew fears the worst. During their search

to find each other, they meet new friends, new enemies and a sea full of danger, all the while continuing their swashbuckling quest for the coveted Queen’s maps of the New World.
