NEVERDIE's Hollywood Adventures

[NEVERDIE]

Friday October 26th

Well something pretty wild just occured...

I got a call from my friend michael Kastenbaum. He produced many of the low budget movies i did in LA. Infact it was michael who set the meeting up with Van Damme, that led me to write the NEVERDIE movie in the first place.

So micheal calls and he says he just met with Moshe Diamant a Producer that he has been friends with for years. Moshe hired me thru Micheal for my first writing jobs in Hollywood back in the early 1990's..

Moshe Produced a ton of movies, including all the Big Van Damme movies, in fact he just did a couple more with van Damme. So Michael and moshe are talking and Micheal starts telling him about me and NEVERDIE and all the Entropia Universe stuff and how I'm moving back to LA to start developing the movie and Moshe's eyes light up and says he wants to be involved.

So I just called him up myself and he was very enthusaistic and wants me to send him all the links so his son can log in and check it out....

So there we go, I havent even got to hollywood yet and the ball is rolling... It has been on mind off and on that i could take this idea to Moshe, but the fact that it comes to me and that my friend Michael is the catalyst is an interesting sign...

Now take note... In the past we tried to do movies together all three of us and usualy something screwed it up... I can honestly say I was very green in those early days and my scripts were not that good... So for a change i have something really exciting to bring to the table.. Also this time around I'm gonna try to position Michaeal as a director I will focus on Acting and producing... So the dynamics will be different, but that doesnt mean that this will happen, we're playing the hollywood Game here and its complex...

But the great thing is, i got something to write about here...
So Im gonna email Moshe a Whole bunch of links to Press and everything now and see if it gets him excited... Here's his IMDB page for those interested in the Movies he has produced, im sure you will know some of them.

Its amazing that this happened today straight after i posted this thread, its an example of how when u put things out there, the Universe responds and starts to facilitate things... Regardless of if this is the way things go ultimately, Im Happy things are starting to happen.

November 1st 2007

A couple of years ago around this time i was in los Angeles with Cheri, driving around I kept seeing Big billboards on Sunset Blvd for the Video Game Awards, Samuel L jackson was presenting the awards and I kept saying to Cheri "God Damn it, wtf! Why aren't I presenting an award, I mean C'mon these are the Video Game Awards not the Oscars... Where are the gamers?"

I've had it in my mind since then I really want to be a presenter. I mean hey, i'm NEVERDIE... You Know to me it's really exciting that Entropia empowers us the gamers..
We really are the Stars of this Universe... If u watch the video game Awards... The Stars are the games, they are collecting the Awards, the games and the Developers, not the people who play them....

At the Oscars of course the Movies and the Directors and Producers get Awards too but so do the Actors the people who live out the roles in the movies....

We are the Actors in Video games we are not passive audience members... We live out the roles in the games, we bring them to life....

Today was a good day, I finally got invited to the Video Game Awards show, not just to sit in the audience, but to Walk the Red Carpet to arrive as a celebrity, a celebrity Gamer! To do some interviews on the Red Carpet.
I'd still like to be a presenter, but this is a good first step.
Still alot of details to pull off between now and then, walking the red carpet still doesnt guarantee the interview gets aired during the show, but its at least a possibility...

I know Halo3 will be dominating the Awards, but I'm really glad to be there and score another Blip on the Radar for Entropia....

The show will air on Sunday, December 9th at 9:00pm on Spike TV. Keep an eye out for me.

It's a long story how I even finally got invited, suffice to say alot of ducks had to line up, it took alot of persistance, they're still much more interested in have Jessica Alba there than NEVERDIE, can u believe that? I mean what's so great about Jessica Alba?

Monday November 26th.

Packing up the House in Miami, has kinda thrown me for a loop, throw in the Thanksgiving holiday and The Start of the massive multiplayer Online World Championships, Plus Some new Events im working on and I can say my head is in a spin most of the time.

Today I shipped out the Cars to LA, I traded in our lexus and bought an H2 Black on Black Hummer and also got a 50th Anniversary Edition ThunderBird... So Now We got the Cars for LA.. Joe aka Force Majeure described the Cars as UBER... Driving the Hummer indeed reminds me of the feeling of Walking around with Shadow and a MoD Fap.. Funnily enough, they cost about the Same.. Too bad U can't Finance Shadow and a Mod Fap yet in EU..

So We'll be arriving in LA on Friday night, thats it, were done with Miami...Everything is shipped out...

We spent thanksgiving in Memphis tenessee, Cheris home town. A highlight of the holiday is that we booked Sun Studios (Birthplace of Rock N Roll) to Record a Gospel Section on one of Cheris Songs... Almost all of Cheri's family are gospel Singers and so they filled the Studio, it was Pretty amazing for me, I was just tripping knowing that Elvis got his start in the same room, Suddenly 54 years seemed like yesterday... In the big scheme of things its not along time ago, that was how long ago he recorded thats alright mama...

Cheri's album is a Club NEVERDIE production, the first record i'm producing after the NEVERDIE album, theres already some really Hot tracks on it... Being in Sun Records Studio, with Cheri and her Family of Gospel Singers felt very real, it was a very legitimate place for us to record since, it's pretty inexpensive, I never would have thought I would find myself in such an Auspicious place working to help another artist break out and a Memphis native to boot

I've always been very inspired By Elvis, his music and his story, I did a little a tribute with my Movie HEY DJ! (DJ Hound Dog) I also have a few fun pieces of Elvis Memrobilia including a Pillow and backgammon Set from his Tour bus and Autographed Deck of Cards a 1957 16mm Newsreel (clips can be seen in my DJ Hound Dog music Video Playing at Club NEVERDIE)

Also My most Incredible Elvis item is a Rock!
It was Elvis's pet Rock that he found when he was only Seven years old, that he kept as his lucky Rock, it looks like a Laughing hippo, he Found it in Tupelo mississippi and he kept it until he was ten years old and he moved to memphis, he gave the rock as a present to his best friend as a parting gift and they kept it in the family for many years... Until it found its way to me.. Now its my lucky Rock or maybe I should say its my other Lucky Rock, since the Asteroid Club NEVERDIE is built on is my VERY Lucky Rock!!
