Of videogame sequels to classic movies (also, HAWP DVD details)
Anthony Burch \| 12:13 PM on 08.11.2009	40 comments

I wrote an article about videogame sequels to movies that often equal their source material (The Warriors, Tron 2.0, etc). It's here.

After next week's HAWP season finale, I'm gonna start working on a season DVD. For no particular reason, I will now include the potential features and my to-do list regarding it. If you've got anything in particular you want to see on the DVD that I haven't listed, lemme know.

As of now, I want the DVD to include:
- Commentary by Ash and I on every episode
- One or two horrendous episodes that we shot that we will never, ever air because they're horrendous
- Outtakes
- A video of our PAX panel
- An interview with Papa B

Which means I need to:
- Learn how to use a DVD authoring program
- Rope Davis into helping me design a visually appealing (read: not-hideous) set of menus
- Decide on DVD sleeve art (maybe through a photoshop contest?)
- Probably distribute it on CreateSpace or something

Might be more trouble than it's worth, but it would be fun to record alternate versions of certain scenes, and just make them totally ridiculous and surreal. I've seen this done really well on a lot of DVDs, and I'm sure it would be a good time.

pedrovay2003

Adobe Encore DVD is amazing if you can get your hands on it, but DVD Flick is a free one that works well, too. I'd recommend Encore, though, if you can afford it.

eduh

Sounds awesome, gl with it :>

AgentMOO

Good luck with the DVD release Anthony!

Also I just noticed you've only friended yourself on the right there --->
This makes me think of a dog spinning in circles chasing its tail

DaedHead8

One or two previously released episodes? If that's all there are then great, throw them both on there, but personally, I want every episode you guys have ever done, no matter how short, unfinished or terrible they may be. Make it happen please.

Clint

I would so buy this, especially if Kohlstream did the design.

Stevil

No love for Blade Runner? Or was that technically a companion piece rather than a true sequel?

Primo

haha the dvd sounds like a great idea

garison

I'll but a copy.

falinter

I'm looking forward to the commentary and the Papa B interview.

Zombutler

Sounds great. But I do hope that the commentaries are posted online. PLEASE.

Danzflor

I would love to own that DVD, no matter how much i have to afford ti get it.

i would love to see a fan art gallery, in case you do photoshop contest to check all the entries, with zoom and all that crap as well with other fun art of HAWP.

And why not make a video reading some angry comments of GT of those who hate you? that would be nice.

And the Premiere (or at least a teaser) of the New Spin off Series with you Dad as protagonist.

Bob Muir

Just don't fall back on iDVD. It's easy, but you know you'll get called on it.

Sam Spectre

I think you should include a time line of Ash's hair and it's corresponding effect on the Game Trailers community.

And I'm definitely buying a copy.

RonBurgandy2010

Throw some random shit in there.

Electro Lemon

Of course, there'd be a back, too.

Electro Lemon

grumble grumble grumble size constrants.
here.

Hamza CTZ Aziz

What Sam Spectre said, hahahahaha

Chad Concelmo

Best stocking stuffer EVER! :D

Kyle MacGregor

I can dig it.

RAB

ash's codec number on the back of the cd case

Tattoojoe3rd

I would totaly buy one

Samit Sarkar

It should say "Commentary by Ash and me on every episode." Fucker.

Kryptinite

I want that DVD.

Now.

Furnimus

Day one buyer of HAWP Season 1!

Oh, and what Samit said.

TheCleaningGuy

I love you Samit.
Also, I'd buy one.

flaming burrito

A dramatic reading of GT comments as a 3rd audio track would be awesome.

peachboy

exciting news, can't think of anything i'd want in it outside of what you were already thinking. i will say though, don't be discouraged on the whole including horrendous outtakes and unreleased stuff, i can very well see myself getting stuck watching hours and hours of crap and enjoying it for no logical reason at all.

crackity jones

I'll take 60!!!!

odber

Make it happen Anthony. I'd buy two in a heartbeat

Kif

Flaming Burrito is a genius. You should get Dtoid members to record them and send them over or something.

Gyrael

I'd be on that.

RAB

flaming burrito wins

oberoi

A bonus audio commentary by the Podtoid crew!

lovemana23

Up frit :)

Dyson

Make sure that the Konami Code is in the menu somehow and does something cool.

Lelio

I can just imagine Rev Konami Coding himself 99 lives in fear of Ash murdering him in his sleep.

If you feel like going for a walk and a swim, feel free to drop a copy off at my doorstep.

Ubersuntzu

Guess I'm a little late to the party, but you forgot to include The Thing. Great licensed game. Works great as a sequel.
