Free Beer!!

The Phalco marketing folks sent this over today. Sadly the deal they worked out with Pabst Blue Ribbon fell threw and now all we can offer is free cans of yams. Enjoy. And God Bless America!

5 years of Phalco. Coming in 2011.

Our boy over at P4S, Nicky C, gave the Phalco site a spiffy makeover. Make sure to check it out at PhalcoFilms.com. Thanks to Nick C for all his hard work. More coming soon. So hold onto your hats.

Phalco Films: The Beginning

The following is a journal entry written by Mike Roach in the fall of 2005:

Tonight, in Media Management we had to pick our groups. People wrote the names of industries they wanted to research on the board and their names underneath. I sat there, immobile, for a moment or two. Then I popped up and wrote myself under "Film".

I went over to the film group and said, "I bring nothing to the table."

Then it was on. The only dude in the group, Steve Sims, said he knew me from Philosophy class (he sits behind me somewhere.) He started talking about film. He's a free-lance videographer. He remembered the things I'd said in Philosophy and knew I was into film and that I was from Indiana and had moved to L.A.

We talked quite a bit, and when it was time to leave, he waited for me at the door. As we walked down the steps, he said that he wanted to do a movie and invited me to collaborate.

Holy shit! Did it happen? Yeah.

2003

Since seeing the 'The Social Network' I've had nothing but 2003 on the brain, hence my recent Facebook photo. Here's a goodie from the summer of '03. A summer before adulthood, before the thick of college and even before Facebook.

People Who Have Gone Nuts

No, this isn't about that PHONEY Joaquin Phoenix. It's about all the other fucking lunatics out there. Part of me wants to tell these cunts to go fuck a duck, but then if I had their money and their bullshit fame, I'd most likely be a lunatic too. Well not like Mel, he's just a racist asshole.

1) We have here, Spencer Pratt. I dunno what to say about this clown other than he looked okay with that beard. And that his wife's boobs are amazing. This guy has lost it.

2) We have, of course, Lohan. The girl is out to lunch. And the meal is all you can eat fuck up. And most likely cocaine for dessert. She had so much potential. Oh well, at this rate my guess is she's dead by Christmas.

3) And last but (certainly) not least, is Mel. Oh, Mel. It's over for you buddy. You're a certifiably insane bigot. And this thing with the iPhone camera, not funny. Just stupid. I'm not saying these jagoff paparazzi are any better, but Mel come on, you're Riggs!

55 days and counting...

It's been some time since we've done a Conan update. There's really not much to say other than he's keeping the beard and looking awesome. TBS. November 8th. The man returns.
