From Bedrooms to Billions

[merman]

Clips being shown at the Play Expo today, along with Rob Hubbard and Ben Daglish live...

[gravy]

Definitely be up for buying it when it comes out.

If there's another fund raising round though it's going to hard to maintain some enthusiasm for the project so I hope they don't go that route.

They kind of have:

£30 to pre-order without a firm date for release yet. I dunno, I get a funny smell off of this. Hope it's misplaced

Why it's taking so long to make it ? Are they still interviewing people and/or gathering material or are they already in the editing phase ?

[merman]

They are editing now, although still looking for some TV clips.

[Muttley]

Yeah, editing is ongoing, but the clips they've released to backers so far are brilliant.

[gilesgoat]

Puts on an interesting question anyway ( and looks also a bit 'sad' because clearly the answer is probably 'lot' ) which is "so if sum it all until now, how much damned money you need to make a film like that then ?

Poor all "independent film makers" and such then

I laughed when I saw "Surround 5:1 Dolby Audio" as a special feature - yeah, a bunch of interviews and game clips from the era of mono audio gaming

I do however get the feeling that unless Kickstarter tightens up it's terms and conditions in regards to project release dates and re-funding it isn't going to be here a great deal longer.

Hubbard, Daglish and Galway are doing the original soundtrack for it. Maybe that's where the 5.1 mix is used.

Hmmm, you can get the Blu-ray plus soundtrack CD for half the price of what I had to pledge to get them (granted mine is numbered and signed). I don't mind that much in a way... I would expect the retail price to be less... it just rankles a bit seeing it before the thing is even released.

If I ever do a Kickstarter, I'm going to make sure I only start it once I have all my content ready to go!

Durrr, is it out yet or has this thing died a death?

Been asking myself the same thing since a while .. it seems it should be out .. but I have no idea.

It's all finished I guess, 'cos the premier is on the 25'th of September at EGX London.

Tickets are all gone though!

I stumbled across this site whilst looking for details of bedrooms 2 billions .... http://www.bitmapbooks.co.uk/
Looks pretty good.

[Mayhem]

More a case of "we're giving ourselves until this point to get all the clearances we need, and those we don't, we've got substitutes lined up we can put in instead". Pity clearances can take so long. I got a ticket to the showing, hopefully I can make it along.

[Bod]

Anyone get to see this yet?

Surely it must have a release date by now? Maybe Expo will shed some light?

Who is this interloper on the right
