thepokerfilm update
Things are going well. Lots of people seem to like the trailer and they think it has a lot of potential.
The film is being discussed in a lot of different spots:
1. 2+2: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Number=12214457
2. P5s: http://www.pocketfives.com/F01744A0-B8D4-469A-B41D-34A1EF1AC61C.aspx
3. PokerPT: http://pokerpt.com/forum/vidas-vt8011.html (not that I can understand that)
4. Busted N’ Broke: http://bustednbroke.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3706
5. pokerclub.be: http://www.pokerclub.be/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6171
We’ve gotten around 1500 clicks from 2+2 and around 900 from P5s, so I’m really appreciative that the mods/admins on those sites let the threads stay up. Not that I posted them or asked anyone to post about them (Clayton did it and I didn’t ask him to), but it’s still nice of them.
Also, we’ve reached an agreement in principle with CardRunners in which they will sponsor a few of the clips and will also get some banner ads on the site. They are getting some of the “viral” type of content so I think they’re going to be really happy with the exposure that they’re getting out of the agreement.
The first clip that we plan on releasing deals with the drinking bet for which stealthmunk flew down from CT to Athens. I don’t know exactly when to expect it, but I would hope for next week. While Eric is working on the clip, I am working on the website. Expect a bunch of big changes on thepokerfilm before the next clip release. I want things like the ability to leave comments, a better system for viewing pictures and a few other things. I’m editing a test version of the new site now and it’s shaping up to be pretty cool.
The ads for CR should be up as soon as I put up the new site.
Also, I expect to close another deal for more advertisements in the near future, it’s just a matter of who we end up going with for the other clips and banners.

If this is going to be a “series” instead of one film, it would be much cooler if it was ongoing rather than a fixed length. Watchable shit happens always.
