Fan Made Mega Man Film Coming ‘Very Soon’
Eddie Lebron is a man. A man who loves a man. A man who loves a man named Mega Man.
Instead of shacking up Brokeback-style in the mountains of Wyoming, Mr. Lebron has opted to immortalize his little blue paramour via the most traditional of means: A feature length, home made film.
The most impressive bit is that the flick proudly wears its low budget, fan made aesthetic like a certificate of authenticity turned medal of honor, and yet still manages to look way more respectful of its source material than any of Hollywood’s attempts at turning a beloved video game into a film.
Of course, I’m basing all of that on the surprisingly awesome trailer and the newly released Sneak Preview, but, according to Lebron, we don’t have much longer to wait to catch the film in its entirety.
“The next big question is: when will it be released? The film shall be released online 2 weeks after the premiere. Well, when will the premiere be? I don’t want to say officially when it will but I do have a specific time frame in mind and it’s soon … very soon,” Lebron writes in a recent blog entry. “Without giving too much, the film will be premiered before the summer.”
Using only their minds, our crack team of mathemagicians crunched the numbers, and assuming Mr. Lebron’s film can avoid any crippling delays, we have, at maximum, a six month wait ahead of us; An almost insignificant time frame if Lebron can deliver on his hype.
