Less than super heroes

This could be a lot of fun. Slightly bigger budget, massively bigger concept and hopefully a cast of thousands ... but we'll settle for hundreds.
The concept is simple, a world where superheroes exist but their powers totally suck ... like massively suck in their sucking suckorific suckingess.
The script is also panning out pretty decent. There's still a lot of work to be done but one thing we know for sure is coming up with ideas for amusing bad superheroes is not going to be a problem. Take any group of people, add a few drinks and the concept and you get at least a dozen good ideas of which one or two are corkers.
We're looking at setting up a system whereby people can create their own Pissweak Superhero character online and submit a line of dialogue for them and if it's good enough, we'll put them in the movie. We've also got some "potential" investors who may be keen to buy themselves a speaking part. Naturally we have to show them a finished script first but that's coming along reasonably nicely.
With any luck it should just be another fun project with big groups of extras like the zombies. This time we're going to go slightly bigger with a whole lot more slightly less pissweak special effects and it will be a real ensemble piece - lot's of characters not just one deprived, moustachiod wise ass talking to camera for half of it ... thank everything that is holy.
We're probably still at least 6-9 months away from getting anything together but maybe just maybe we may be looking at starting pre-production sometime around Christmas ... that's the plan.
