Yeah, I remember the acceptance speeches from those guys.  They were cool.  They sounded like rednecks, which was cool in a category where the winner is usually some french guy who can barely speak english, and made [yet another] documentary about the Holocaust.  :rolleyes:  I\'m glad these guys won, and I want to see their film.  :)

Oh yeah, well listen to this:

I live in Wichita, KS, which also happens to be the home of the Church of Scientology headquarters, which happens to be 5 minutes from my house, which Kirstie Alley visits somewhat regularly!

Ha, I bet you all wish you lived 5 minutes away from a church based on a novel by a science fiction author, and is visited by the crazy woman from Cheers.

Oh, and Pizza Hut started here.

If they ever decide to get their flick on tv or something, I\'ll let you know.  They say they might try to make it into a series!

Otherwise, they don\'t plan on selling their movie.  Maybe it will some on Sundance or something.

I didn\'t realise that!  There\'s a reason:

The movie has "Mack the Knife" in the beginning, for a long time he was having trouble getting the rights to it to "officially" have it inthe flick.  DBT was going to do a song for it, but last minute he finally got the rights.  He\'s feels bad, so he promised to use one of their songs in his next film.

Scientology is huge in Clearwater here and Kirstie Alley lives here.  Bunch of freaks.
