It's hard to believe it, but August is just around the corner! This summer has flown by way too fast. If someone knows how to make days go by more slowly, please email me and let me know, because I'd really like to work on that. I don't have much to say this week, but we do have some news about Angles coming very soon. Stay tuned for some announcements in next week's newsletter. Oh, and our baghead friend Oh See Dee is looking for some Facebook fans, so help him out by "Liking" his page, here! And keep your eyes on him for some new vids and music in August. Other than that, stay cool, and don't let that humiditiy get to you... --Robert Bartolome |

With Workaholics Anonymous just around the corner, it was confirmed this week that a soundtrack album, featuring music from the film, will be released. "We've licensed a handful of songs from some very talented, indie artists," explained Producer Allison Freitas, "and from the beginning, we thought a compilation album would be a great way to highlight their work. Contracts and paperwork tend to get in the way sometimes, but all of the artists have been very excited and receptive to the soundtrack. And all proceeds go directly to festival distribution and promotion for the film." According to the crew, the soundtrack is currently locked in as a five-song EP, featuring a range of rock, pop, and acoustic genres. "The music plays a big role in shaping the quirky mood of the film," said Robert Bartolome. "And I think the album is a great little companion for any workaholic." Stay tuned for artist and track announcements in the coming weeks. |

 Harrison Ford
took the stage of Comic Con |
Harrison Ford at Comic Con (In Handcuffs) Despite starring in the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises, Harrison Ford had never attended San Diego's Comic Con convention until this year, for his new film Cowboys & Aliens, a sci-fi western from Universal Pictures and DreamWorks, based on a comic book series. Ford took to the scene in handcuffs, "escorted" by two guards, and received a standing ovation as he joined co-stars Daniel Craig, Olivia Wilde, and Sam Rockwell. The handcuffs were apparently a nod to director John Favreau, who practically had to kidnap Ford and force him to come, but also to the real-life assault that took place moments earlier in a panel down the hall. However, according to Variety.com, the cast said very little. Favreau revealed a few scenes from the film, explaining how the alien/western elements will look and feel. The film is slated for release on July 28, 2011. |
