Ever since DragonCon last fall, a small fan film about another group of Big Damn Heroes has been attracting a lot of attention. More than six months later, Browncoats Redemption has raised thousands for several charities, and its producers have some big news, including a Blu-Ray DVD and its trailer finding a new home on cable.
Michael Doughtery, who wrote, co-produced, wrote and directed the film, visited Wondercon in San Francisco last weekend.
We have exclusive interviews with Mark Valley (Christopher Chance), Jackie Earle Haley (Guerrero), Janet Montgomery (Ames), and Matt Miller executive producer of Human Target from Wondercon. I have talked about Human Target repeatedly in my TV Campfire podcast and it was picked by several guests as one of the best new shows of 2010. If you have not checked the show out so far be sure to do so and if you are a long time fan be sure to tweet about the show. Its one of the shows on the bubble for renewal so spread the word.

Then there’s Super, which is a different kind of super hero movie. Made for about two million dollars, or as writer/director James Gunn says "the craft services budget for Iron Man," it also talks about a man who suddenly decides to be a hero. It doesn’t need CGI or super powers. All it needed was belief, from the actors, the writers and the crew, that people would want to see this movie.
Judging from the response during the panel with Gunn and star Rainn Wilson this past Saturday, that belief may pay off.
A young girl, trained by a male mentor to fight, hunt, and be self-sufficient. She learns about the world through an encyclopedia and Grimm’s Fairy Tales.
