Old News and Updates
August 19, 2005
Right now we're working on a rough cut of a new episode of Pimp My Shovel, which we will TRY to put on here. No promises, though. In the mean time, several new Bush quotes got added to the mix and the links were updated so check them out!
Filming on The 80's House just wrapped. As we were forced to cast some of our friends in it, the process was quite interesting but it turned out better than we expected. We also recently got MySpace, so you can add us as a friend HERE!! We look forward to talking to you! If you are looking for a ONE campaign armband, we know of a few places you may be able to get one. Contact us somehow and we'll try to hook you up. Remember to sign the ONE Campaign and our Guestbook!! Peace!

Begins it so... (again)
With a week left of school, we are realizing that we can't really make up excuses for not working on anything. We'll be totally redesigning the website in June. Hopefully by September, we will have a finished a full-length script. The school year hasn't been completely unproductive though. We've started filming material for something. We don't really know quite what it is yet. So far we just have a rough episode of PIMP MY SHOVEL.

OVERLOAD!!!!
We're sorry that it has, once again, been far too long since our last update. We are up to our heads in fan mail and simply cannot keep up with it. We sincerely apologize for the delay of our replies. We are really doing our best. Just a friendly reminder- it really isn't necassary to send us an email
twice every single day and all the donations are great but seriously, we now have more money than Bill Gates. If you still feel the need to make a contribution we'd prefer it to be in the form of a camera rather than cash or checks. No, we don't accept credit cards either. We're working on that though. Visa is trying to score a deal with us but really, who needs a $10.63 million signing bonus. That's just ridiculous.
So what have we done with all that cash? We finally bought a camera! We've found it has made a profound difference in our movie-making abilities. No, we still aren't casting yet. Stop sending audition tapes, especially ones that show off more than your, um, acting ability.
Our underground sweashops, ahem, we mean, WE are stamping out T-shirts faster than Lance Armstrong sells armbands. Order them before they're gone! If you have already attempted to make an order, but have failed to get a reply or a shirt, we're sorry. Just keep bugging us.
And now about all that promised info on new movies, scripts, and that tv show. We're working on them. Please check out the ONE Campaign website, which you can do by clicking the banner at the top of the page.
Be sure to go to the kick-ass Shadow Puppet concert Friday, April 15 in the Lakeview auditorium!!! Be
there or be in despair!
January 2005:
Happy New Year!!!
It finally snowed! We still cannot officially declare winter sincethere isn't very much and it doesn't entirely cover the ground, but at least it snowed. As of late, there has been a fair amount of specualtion involving various aspects of BS Films. Henceforth, we have decided to end the specualtion by releasing an official statement in a bit we like to call:
AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT TO END SPECULATION INVOLVING VARIOUS ASPECTS OF BS FILMS
1. BS Enterprises does not plan to go public or make any of it's divisions or subdivisions, including BS Films, public.
2. BS Enterprises is not, and will not, be for sale any time in the foreseeable future.
3. BS Films is currently working on designs for various new merchandise, including stickers.
4. Horror is not the only film genre BS Films is working in. We currently are developing a few comedies, a silent film, and a few television shows.
5. We plan on releasing our movies in both DVD and VHS format, but that is subject to change.
6. Although we do appreciate people signing the guestbook, we do not however appreciate "the other company" using our guest book for shameless self-promotion. : )
Peace!

Let it snow... let it snow... PLEASE LET IT SNOW!!!
There is only one week left until Christmas and there still isn't a speck of snow on the ground. Not a single molecule! Its quite pathetic!
We wish you all a very happy holiday season with at least 5 feet of snow! Remember, BS Films t-shirts make the perfect Christmas
present! Last minute orders accepted!
Look for tons of updates and site renovations in the next year! We'll be in full swing working hard on a new movie next summer! Sorry,
we won't be holding auditions for quite some time so don't bother asking. Peace!
Early December 2004:
Higher authority has forced us to remove the last update from our main page. Please check back soon for less "offensive" updates. Since we've been "offensive" we feel we ought to remind you that we don't mean any harm. We're just some stupid filmmakers. Don't be quick to jump to conclusions about anything we say. Until then we'll leave you with a quote:
When you ASSUME, you make an ASS out of U and ME... unless I'm the ass to begin with.

BS FILMS GOES TO JAPAN?
This fateful weekend we rented Ringu. For those who aren't knowledgeable in horror movies, that is the original version of The Ring which is Japanese. By the way, if you didn't know that then what are you doing here?? Anyway, it was quite interesting to watch once we got past the fact that the movie was entirely in Japanese and we had to read subtitles for 96 minutes. The plot was the exact same, although the storyline slightly varied. If you watch both the American and Japanese verisons, you'll get it. Otherwise just take our word for it. The Japanese filmmakers didn't use a lot of the techniques that made the American version good. To sum it up: good plot, mediocre movie.
Then a rare occurence, for lack of a better word, occured. We started thinking. Then something even more rare happened. We had a good idea. If Japanese horror movies aren't that scary, why not market our movies primarily in Japan? If our movies are really scary, we'll go down as Japanese legends that came from America. If our movies aren't that scary, we'll still be considered great filmmakers! We'd better start learning Japanese...
Opening Statement:
We are BS???
BS Films is an independent film company that was founded by two teenagers with a passion for horror movies. We are currently working on our feature-length film debut. The screenplay was expected to be completed by September 2005, but the writers are masters at the art of procrastination. The writers completely deserved to be fired. However due to lack of creative writing talent they were given another chance. Now we are shooting for a September 2005 deadline.
