The Latest Epic Trailer is Live!

Yes I know you're wondering when and if I am ever going to finish moving this thing over to Wordpress, and the answer to that is... the day that I actually feel like it! My god is that a long tedious process. I hate, no I loath maintenance work. I love to create, I love to be creating constantly. I feel bad and downright icky inside when I'm not creative. SO THERE!

With that, I bring to you good kids of the interwebs, Michael Bay's Interstellar-Mageddon Epic Trailer!

Thanks for watching everyone! Please share if you can, and don't forget to subscribe!

Getting Better At This Optimizing Stuff...

Sometimes being productive in the face of adversity, social pressures, economic troubles, or personal life issues can be really hard. But sooner or later you have to do it. Sooner or later you're going to have to get up off your ass and do something about it. You're just going to have to make that special trip to Target for toilet paper... that's all there is to it. You can have that crap on your hands forever. It's time to move on and accept it.

What's new? Why am I here? Is there a new Epic Trailer  already? Nope. Sorry to disappoint, but I actually don't have much of any kind of new update for you other than to point out the awesomeness that is I now have a subpage for ALL of my Epic Trailers. Just follow where my finger pictured above is pointing and you should see it... or you can click here and it'll take you right on over like red rover. 

The only update I do have is that I mapped out a long list of creative goals and plans. This includes everything from future Epic Trailers to my upcoming Deleted Scenes From Titanic videos, to Don't Ever Call Liam Neeson videos. What are those last two? Just some more fun I'm cooking up in my creative kitchen - so stay on the look out. I'll also be adding in all of my gifs I created, and any memes I create, just for the fun of it. But then it also helps with my SEO optimization. Why do that? Because I want to, thats why! Plus it helps if any of my content goes viral or generates any kind of a following, people can see it quicker and easier! 

Thats all for now. Got a busy day ahead. So be good out there in interweb land and try not to hurt yourselves. 

Conflict Resolution Is A Real Pain In The @$$

Remember the beginning to 2001? Hear that music in your head

Do you ever feel so tired that you can't possibly function, let alone write a blog, and yet you find yourself at work cranking out whatever it is you do, or pouring out your thoughts onto digital paper and don't even bother with correct spelling? Yeah that's my day today. So far I don't see any red squiggles on this thing, but that isn't to say I'm not using the complete wrong word. I am wiped out.





Well this weekend we played host to our MST3k Meetup group. Usually this is a highlight of our month, but the last couple times it's been pretty stressful and irritating, and this last time took the cake. It's not that we're falling out of love with MST3k or Rifftrax, but that our group has gotten a bit out of hand. And it all comes down to just a few people. They have recently gotten so loud and obnoxious that it's ruining the event not only for us, the hosts, but for our friends who come each and every time looking forward to some shared hilarity. Seriously we have people talking(and when I say talking I mean yelling) over the movie! Some even have a familiarity with the episode or Rifftrax movie, so they're riffing ahead of the movie to sound clever and thus ruin the joke. And to top it off, many, many of the jokes are so off color and so uncomfortable, that they can't be described as anything but tasteless. We were hoping this would solve itself, after all when no one else is laughing at what you say, it's a clue to stop talking - so now I have to deal with this. I would have liked to deal with it in the moment, but then we would have to endure the awkwardness of stopping the movies, standing in front of the group to chastise only a few people. And then we didn't know if we were the only ones bothered, it's hard to read a group of 15 other people sometimes. Thankfully, our closest friends and frequent visitors let us know they were bothered by this behavior too.

I don't want to be mean spirited, that's not my nature, but to say I'm irritated is an understatement. I don't want to put it on the shoulders of a few, after all as a group organizer I am partly to blame, but damn, it is amazing how the behavior of a couple can ruin it for so many. Being the pragmatist that I am, I am trying to address the situation as calmly and as even handed as I can, when all I want to do is make sure some people never show up to an event again. I don't want to do that, I know they didn't mean any harm, but damn... life would be simpler taking the easy way out sometimes. Tough act to balance, but I'm doing my best.

Another area where what happened Saturday was so disruptive was in our Sunday. My wife and I were and still are in some respects, completely wiped out - physically and mentally. I got my latest kick ass Hot Toys action figure of the classic Adam West Batman and it is truly incredible - the best figure they've released so far in my opinion and was hardly able to enjoy it. Here is the first pic I was able to snag:

Adam West 1966 Batman

I wanted to get more pictures taken of this guy, including a series for the rest of my collection, but like I said, I was wiped out Sunday so they'll be saved for a later time. It was so bad Sunday we hardly moved and I got no editing time in for my latest Epic Trailer. It's finished now - having spent most of yesterday doing it. I wanted it done earlier, but, it's finished and it is amazing. So in the end, it isn't all a complete shit storm! So, without further ado, I give you Home Alone Epic Trailer:

Hope everyone enjoyed! This was a lot of fun to put together. I have many more ideas in the works, and I hope to get back onto a weekly release schedule going forward. I also have several more goofy videos in the works that will be coming out shortly! Take care and enjoy everything life brings you, good and bad, you'll never know what you learn about yourself.

I Shaved...My Face!

My chin looks enormous now. 

There comes a time in every man's life where he needs to decide what is important, to avoid being carded at the liquor store, or to man up and shave off his chin whiskers and and look professional at impending job interviews? The decision has been made. I now look like a butch four year old, and I have to live with my decision for at least the next three to four days. Learn from my mistake. Learn.






Well what's new? I am busy at work at my latest Epic Trailer, and it is going to be funny as hell and I can't wait for everyone to see it. However, I have hit a bit of a snag. See, some of the elements I have to work with have rather craptasticly soft sound, and no amount of altering is generating audible dialog that isn't being beaten to death by noise artifacts and distortion, so now I have to seek out good quality elements, and Comedy Gods willing, I should locate those today. Either way that shakes out, that does indicate that there will be a release date delay for my latest video. I know, I am letting you down, but it must be so. I am sorry. I do hope to have this beast uploaded and ready by Friday noon time, but that must also come with a flurry of mad dash editing. If I can't make it by then, you can bet Monday is a rock solid release date!

With that, I have cracked what I want my vlog to be. For those not in the know, a vlog is a "Video Blog" - get it? Vlog. Mine shall be "First World Problems With Matt." I'd love to give this a fireside, "Masterpiece Theater" vibe but I don't have an apartment with a fireplace. What are the problems I am going to cover? Well, you know those goofy intros I write at the top of every blog entry? Pretty much those. I think they're goofy as hell and if told in a straight faced way, could be hilarious. I don't have a specific timetable to get the ball rolling on these, maybe as early as next week, but we'll see what I can nock together in that time. I do have to keep looking for a job, make some progress on my book, edit my latest Epic Trailer, and I am also working on rebuilding my online portfolio; snazzy it up so it looks awesome. So this new vlog will have to come after all that, but keep a look out for it! It is coming!

That's all for now, gotta clean my apartment a little and take out the recycling. Those are first world problems, but they're not funny.

To Vlog Or Not To Vlog? That Is The Question...

I'm trying really hard to enjoy "Escape Plan"

Welcome back ladies, gents, children, and specially skilled cats and dogs that can activate computers and read nerd blogs. Hope all of you had a great weekend. Mine was nice and relaxing with the wonderful Colorado weather we're experiencing here. Yes, Friday and Saturday both were just spectacular with lots of sun and 70 degree weather... Sunday was a gigantic ice storm. I like to think of days like that as Mother Nature's reminder we're her little bitch.






What's new? Not a whole hell of a lot other than lots of things! To get the ball rolling - this here blog picked up a lot of solid traffic last week - perhaps due to the fact my latest Epic Trailers were pretty huge successes... well at least in my little estimation of them. Take a look again if you haven't already:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TMNT Epic Trailer

Godzilla Epic Trailer

1400+ views and counting each is pretty solid I think. Not to mention I gained more subscribers! If you haven't yet, please do - it helps get the videos I create promoted up the list, and it looks cool when people pull up my profile - and it helps in Google rankings when people search related material.

NEXT: Because of this blog - I got a nice little uptick in ad clicks, which is awesome, albeit not enough bucks to live off of, but it's something. ALSO if you happen to have AdBlocker on, you can turn it off for my blog, even if you don't ever intend to click on the ad, the number of times the ads appear helps too.

AFTER THAT: I got onto a nice job application binge, thankfully Friday was a very productive day on that end to the point that I heard back from one prospect within an hour requesting additional information before scheduling an interview! So with any luck on my side, stable, strong income isn't too far off.

AFTER AFTER THAT: Went and saw The Grand Budapest Hotel for the third time. Yes it is so good that my wife and I have willingly paid to see it three times in the theater and loved it each time. I honestly can't remember the last time that I, let alone both of us have seen a single movie in the theater that many times. So if you haven't gotten to it yet; GO! It's amazingly funny and I can't quit listening to the soundtrack, so be prepared to buy that as soon as you're out of the movie theater as well. In fact, you probably better have the Amazon app on your phone just in case you can't get that music out of your ears.

Where does that leave us? Well pretty much all caught up except that I am now planning my latest Epic Trailer, which I'm thinking I'll have them posted every Thursday if time permits. It seems like I get more views and traffic that day - people at work on a Friday with work being the last thing on their minds before the weekend need to have a little extra distraction!

Now I am also thinking about doing a Vlog of some kind. What kind of one? That is hard to say. I want it to be funny, and goofy but then there is a lot of competition for that kind of market. Not sure yet what I intend to do, or if I do it at all, but you can bet it'll be pretty awesome...or not. But we shall see what happens with that.

Until next time dear readers, be good out there, and enjoy your Monday! Saturday is only 4 more short days away!

It's Friday, try not to hurt yourself...

It's actually really hard to drink with your left hand when you're
right handed.

I think I have stumbled onto perhaps, what could be considered to be the very, absolute, without a doubt worst first world problem: getting up to urinate 15 minutes before the alarm clock goes off. You don't get that wonderful moment, of shutting off the alarm, or hitting snooze and drifting back to sleep for a few minutes. You have to get out of bed, face the bracing cool dawn air, then stand on even colder bathroom tile in your bare feet, and if you're a guy, hope you're awake enough to aim properly. If you're not awake, you got a mess to clean up. Also, if you're like me, when you open that bedroom door, you're greeted by two hungry cats that won't let you pee without feeding them first. So by the time you get back into what should be a warm, comfy bed, you don't have the chance to drift off back to sleep. You're awake. Like I said, first world problem, but it makes me mad.



Well - what's new today? Not a whole lot - just that I've uploaded my newest Epic Trailer! Woot!

But before we get to that; I've created more "Hail Hydra!" memes! Yes, that's right folks, after a good night's rest - I found inspiration and it has also given me a chance to understand how demented I am. So enjoy and laugh if you get the joke. Or laugh anyway, even if it's out of pity. Pity laughter is better than no laughter at all. By the way, these should be the last ones - for now. No guarantees but my brain travels to weird places...

Alrighty - enough of that fun, onto the main event. Here it is; the latest Epic Trailer! Godzilla! Now, fair warning, this one isn't all that funny, it's more straight up cool and awesome. If I wanted it to be funny I'd have to watch that Broderick movie all over again, and... yeah, I just couldn't bring myself to do that. Enjoy!

That's it for this week. Be good out there, and if you hear of any good job openings in the Denver area - let me know lol!
