Archive for ‘Blog’
644 items.
Some of you may have noticed that I’ve added a couple of new elements to the site.
The most obvious addition to the site is the new banner ad up at the top asking you to buy a poster. Looks like it’s working. I’ve already received two orders today.
Which begs the question “What are you waiting for?” With the new banner ad in place to spur sales, it’s only a matter of time before we run out. Do you really want to be one of those people? And by “those people”, I mean the individuals who didn’t purchase a poster and were made fun of throughout eternity! Get on it!
Oh, and just as an aside. For those of you concerned that the space at the top of the page will become a spot for advertising… well, I haven’t ruled it out. But I’m not hooking up with UGO or AllPosters.com or anything. It’ll be a strictly personal affair where I will promote other artists and web toons. That is IF I decide to go that route. In the meantime, it’s just a spot reserved for me to hock my cheesy wares.
Anyway, back on track. The other new feature you mave have noticed is the new webcam page. Basically, it’s just a living archive of the cam images I have floating out around the net.
You can find my ugly mug in a few places, but the majority of these cam images revolve around specific events at Hot Buttered Funk – my portal and forum community of choice. So if you’re looking at them and can’t figure out what they reference, that’s why.
I just thought it would be a fun thing to look at as I usually put in a little time and effort to make sure my images stand out. Be sure to check in on the archive every once in a while as I probably update it at least once or twice a week. And if you have a moment, check out Hot Buttered Funk. It’s a fun place to go after school. Kind of like the YMCA, but with more swearing.

…Jared is talking out of his ass. He actually turned to me in all seriousness and said “Y’know. 2 Fast, 2 Furious looks kind of good.”
Do not believe a word this man says.

I just wanted to say that I saw a one-hour behind-the-scenes documentary about The Hulk on the Sci-Fi Channel and I am VERY impressed. Dennis Murin and his team at ILM have outdone themselves with their creation and animation of the title character.
One big revelation: Ang Lee acted out the majority of the Hulk’s movements through a motion-capture suit. According to him, it was easier to perform the scenes himself rather than instruct an actor on his vision.
Don’t try and tell me Steven Speilberg would ever do that!

In another disturbing example of how the Hulk Hands have taken a toe-hold (thumb-hold?) in popular culture, Neo-Raven from the forums posted a link to a recent NWA:TNA Wrestling contest where the phony forearms were used.

It’s been brought to my attention that X-Entertainment actually has ALREADY written an article about the Hulk Hands – way back in February, as it turns out.
Of course, I wouldn’t know that because I’ve had a hell of a time clicking through Flash advertisments to find, y’know… CONTENT.
Anyway, if you’re curious to get another perspective on these things, here’s the link.

I thought I would just post a little reminder to vote for Theater Hopper every day at Top Web Comics.
No particular reason this time, except it kind of cheeses me to see Bob and George getting more votes than me.
More power to him, I suppose. But I’m just not a sprite kind of guy!

Not to toot my own horn, or anything – but I was kind of skimming through the most recent strips and I have to say I’m really proud of the last two weeks of work in terms of the art. I’m not trying to be pompous, but I’m just very pleased with the way a lot of these strips turned out.
I just wish there were more people seeing them. Maybe if you could extend a little vote love we can work Theater Hopper up the charts on the TWC?
I started Theater Hopper last August, so it’s not yet been a full year of work. But I have this sneaking suspicion that in the web comic world, things start to slow down over the summer.
I think it has something to do with all of the college kids not having as much time to kill during the day. They probably all have summer jobs and aren’t visiting as often as they do in the winter.
I don’t know why I’m sharing this. Just thinking out loud, I guess.

You’ve got a way to make money fast while enlarging your penis? Tell me more! Can it help me to lower my mortgage?!

Hey everyone! I haven’t written a blog in quite some time, so I think it’;s time to re-introduce myself. I’m Jared, real life friend to Tom since the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were swimming in a fishbowl. In the strip, I am immortalized as Tom’s other other-half; appropriately named Jared.
I live in Des Moines, Iowa with my lovely wife Patti. We just bought a house (hence the absence of all free time and presence in the forum.)
I work in the media department of a major insurance company. I shoot and edit video, assist people with A/V equipment, and I am the admin for the company’s video conferencing network.
Every once in awhile, I write blogs for this website detailing the latest gut feelings about the recent films I have consumed. I don’t know if anyone reads them, but I try to make them at least a little bit interesting.
If you want to contact me, please do so at brinkmeyer@hotmail.com please reference Theater Hopper in the subject line so that your message doesn’t go the way of the make money fast while enlarging your penis messages. I’d be happy to hear from you.
