Man oh man, what a pain. Life decided to throw as much crap at me as possible this week. But alas, here we are! ONE more episode to go! Stay tuned for the final episode of the series!

WHERE IS THE SUPER VILLAINS! YOU LIAR!!!
All I can say is sorry for now, have some patience. My f**ing computer sucks. Don't install Windows 7 and expect NO problems. Now that the problems have been resolved, I've been working hard on completion. It's close! We'll see tonight where I'm at. See my updates on Facebook and YouTube and here!
Sorry, I'm pulling a Myndflame with my fail release date date. Forgive me. I think you guys will be happy with the product though.

So I'm sure you saw, Super Villains has been delayed.
We'll see you on the 15th for Episode 7's epic release day.

What? A release date? That's impossible. I need to get my butt into gear!
NOTE: Episode 8 is the last Episode of the series.
But that doesn't mean I'm done with smaller shorts with Kael'thas and the gang. Keep that in mind!
In the meantime, I'd like to Promote some fan stuff.
This guy was my hero. He even performed the "real version of Kael'thas on stage." Needless to say, I was flattered. Watch his video here
Since this is the first of the year, I'd figure I'd update with the happenings of the series. I have decided that there will be 2 MORE EPISODES LEFT, a total of 8. I've been planning on capping off the series, and this is as good a time as any. I don't want to work on this for the rest of my life and want to move onto something....more that belongs to me that I could sell. Since I am poor and I need work, I want to finish!
I can't tell you when Episode 7 will be done because frankly it isn't on my priority list at the moment. I'd like to get 7 done in a month or two and then 8 a few months after that. So stay tuned!

What, an update and a video? How is that possible?
Enjoy this entry into the WeGame Christmas Contest and wish me luck! I'm preparing one more little short for something else, which you should see in the next week.
I can't tell you when the next episode will be ready, because I have much bigger projects to focus on at the moment. Thanks for the love, and stay tuned.

Happy Halloween everyone! Alas, I had no chance to do something for Halloween, I apologize. Lots of other good stuff to tell:
First, I participated along with Myndflame in a Halloween collab: Hallow's End Special
I will also be at the Machinima FilmFest 2008 this year, taking place in New York this Saturday, 11am. I will also be on a panel at 2pm. Hope to see you there!

Here is the shirt I'll be wearing to the Con. I'll see you there Friday and Saturday. I'll be hanging with my other Machinimator friends like Oblivious, Stone Falcon, Myndflame, etc. See you there!
I might actually attend and go to NY. More on that soon.

BLIZZCON!
I'm sure if you're reading this, you don't care, but the answer to that undying question is, YES, I am going to be at the Con. With a Super Villains T-Shirt on in fact. I'll be there all 2 days in fact and around. I'll see you there. More details coming.
In some rather lame news, the next episodes have been offset a little bit. As you all don't know, I'm working on my Thesis film, producing another couple of shorts, a new web series, ASV, H2M, dealing with replacing cars, women, and all of those wonderful things in my life. Unfortunately, this has left ASV kinda last...I didn't even have time to enter something new for the BlizzCon contest, even though I had a pretty good idea locked in. But I did enter.

FILMFEST UPDATE:
If you are going to DragonCon this weekend, Azerothian Super Villains - Episode 6 will be screened on Monday, September 1st, 2008 at 1:00 AM in the Popular Segment of the festival in the Sheraton, Athens Room.
For more details, see this posting on the DC Film Festival Blog:
I just wanted to update everyone what is going on in the World of Azerothian Super Villains.
First, Azerothian Super Villains - Episode 6, will be screening at the DragonCon Film Festival this weekend, going on from August 29th to September 1st, 2008. Be prepared to see it in the Popular segment of the DragonCon Film Festival, which takes place in the Augusta Room at the Sheraton at the event. For more information, visit http://filmfest.dragoncon.org/
I unfortunately, won't be at the festival. But, a more fun event is coming up that I will be at....BLIZZCON!
Yes, I will be present at this fun event. I was very much hoping there would be a booth like there was last year, but from what I hear, there won't be one. If you want to see me and the rest of the awesome Machinimators that deserve to be seen, send an email to machinima@blizzard.com
But, I will be there regardless, so you can see me anyway. More details as the event encroaches. I believe Drewbie will be there too, so expect me to punch him in the stomach or something. All I know is BlizzCon will be epic.
One last thing: Commentary coming this week. Transcripts....when I feel like it. Episode 7 is coming as well, but I'm not sure when. I'm sure I'll be doing Blizzard's BlizzCon Machinima Contest....
However, we didn't let Kael'thas direct the episode. No giant ant this time.
Prepare for a release then and a revamp of the store. Hold on to your butts.

ASV 6 Update: Firstly, I would like to apologize for all of those fans waiting. I'm aiming for the end of the month now, possibly one week after that. I'm not really sure, as it depends on how busy I am. But I did promise screencaps from the episode last week, so hopefully these will tease your curiousity until then.
COMING SOON TO A COMPUTER NEAR YOU!

Alright everyone, here is the brand new site for the Azerothian Super Villains. I liked keeping it very simple, but with just a new look. Keep in mind that some of the links may be dead for the next few days, until I get everything fixed up and running normally. If a link is dead, just check my YouTube profile and there should be links to everything there:
Finally ASV 6 is coming together, but I have some other updates this week:
First, Kael'thas and I just finished the next episode of How2Machinima. It should cure your fancy if you are curious about how the magic happens.
Secondly, I would urge you to go to the forum and start posting some stuff. This awesome thread just popped up and I would love to hear your fan thoughts:
Until then, expect to see ASV 6 in June sometime. Also, happy Belated B-Day Super Villains.

Hey everyone. Sorry for the lack of updates recently, I've been beyond busy. Keeping up with How2Machinima, school work, and this alone is tough. But fear not:
Super Villains 6 is a bit delayed, but coming in early June..
In other news, I'll be revamping the site for the Super Villains Birthday in the next few weeks because this layout stinks, since it happens on the 15th on this month.

News? Well, sort of. ASV 6 is on the way, now with an aimed date for the end of May. Horray!
In the meantime, check out my new series How2Machinima, a video tutorial series for all of you wondering how I do my craft. Enjoy!
Also, famous French Machinimator Olibith invited me to do a short for his “Never Stay Tuned” series. Be sure to check out the ASV related piece in his newest installment, Never Stay Tuned 3.
