My brother recorded his sneak-attack proposal, but didn’t even GIF it, so it’s like it never happened. Just wanted to make it official.

Lord of the Rings x Super Mario World

Artist note: I put a walking path in here, but we all know that one does not simply walk into Mordor. I managed to to fit Barad-dur, Mount Doom, and the nine Nazgul, but ran out of room for The Black Gate.

QR Roulette

Scan for a random original GIF! I redesigned my homepage and this is my favorite part.

This kid is so happy that he forgot how to smile the right way. He’s trying to remember how he used to smile, but it doesn’t even matter because everything’s different now. He’s a cat owner now, a TV owner. Don’t even get him started on that horse book. His life changed in an instant!

Joel's senior class photo. No joke. Epic.

theworldsonlyconsultingbarista:

Today my brother and I got to meet our childhood (and adulthood) hero, Joel Hodgson. I am so pleased to share that he is the absolute KINDEST person you could ever meet. The love and appreciation he has for his fans is so awesome; I could not have asked for a better meeting!

The show, “Riffing Myself”, took a stop in my hometown Tucson, AZ this evening and my brother and I were to happy to have tickets. We ended up splurging on the VIP tickets because, hey, when are we gonna have the chance to meet this guy again?

The show was GREAT and SO funny and it was really cool getting to hear from the shows creator how it all came to be. Also, how many of us get to say that we sat in a movie theater next to Tom Sevo and Crow T. Robot??

After the show we had the opportunity to ask some questions. I asked Joel: “Have you ever met any of the directors or actors from the movies you’ve riffed, and if so, were they upset?” He said he’s met quite a few and they were all great sports about it. “They know that [the movie] was something that only took three days out of their lives,” he responded with a chuckle, “they know that it’s good all in good fun and, the ones I’ve met, anyway, have all said they really enjoy the show.”

When it came time for the photos/autographs I showed Joel the “book” I made when I was in middle school (it’s only about 30-40 pages; not much of a book). I told him about how Jr. High was a tough time for me, so I would bring this book of riffs from the show with me to school and read them when I needed a good laugh; it got me through a lot, truthfully. He flipped through it and got a few good laughs out of it. “Wow! Thanks so much for showing me this, this is really great. I appreciate you bringing this,” he said.

All-in-all a very successful night and one I will be dining on for the rest of my life :)

I Am Root Beer AVAILABLE NOW!

The short film Matthew Ballen and I wrote and directed is now available for everyone!

VHX, the dudes who helped bring Aziz Ansari’s Dangerously Delicious, Beauty Is Embarrassing, This American Life Live, and Miami Connection to your screens, are helping us bring our movie to you as well! $5 dollars gets you an HD download of the movie as well as the soundtrack!!!

We raised most of the funds for this movie on Kickstarter in 2011, finished it in 2012, screened at a couple festivals, got a mention in Indiewire and got on the Tumblr Radar. It’s crazy what can come out of sitting in an apartment one day just throwing around ideas.

This was by far the most ambitious endeavor I had ever been a major part of. This has all been an experiment of sorts (Let’s write something longer than 3 minutes! Let’s write a silly drama! Let’s push a tiny budget as far as we can! Let’s go to film festivals! Let’s distribute online!) and I’m really proud of it. I learned a lot about filmmaking and myself making this thing and I hope you take the time to watch it. If you do please share it with your friends or email me and tell me what you thought and I’ll thank you personally!

So please, go to IAmRootBeer.com and check it out!

Thank you all, I love you dearly.

- Casey

Now I’M root beer!
