Alex, that's awesome! Congratulations. I got a ton of hits when RRU was on the home page of iFilm - it's some really good exposure, at least for a day or two🙂 Way to go!

Don't know if anyone's still watching this thread, but does anybody here know whether they're doing a 2006 contest? Haven't seen anything on the Wizard site or the mag, but it's possible I missed the issue. Deadline was April 1 last year; is it the same every year?

Alex.

I'm not entering as I'm deep into production on "No. My Other Possessed-Zombie Girlfriend."

I'm guessing the contest deadline is the same, but I haven't seen anything for it yet either.

Thanks. And good luck with your film.

Alex.

Just heard from the Associate Editor of Wizard - as suspected, this contest has been scrapped for 2006. Will it return in 07? Only time will tell.

In the meantime, check out Zeb Well's hilarious winning videos from year's past. He got a job writing for Marvel based on a few of these. I personally enjoy "Superhero Birthday Party" and "Hulk for Hire" the most. Thanks Zeb for finally posting these hilarious videos.
