The Protocol On IMDb

imdb_logo_100x100There has been some movement on a project we haven’t heard about in over a year.  It is not much, but it is a sign of progress… Possibly.

Remember The Protocol?  Johnny Messner (Kathryn’s partner) Tweeted about in July 2013 as being a movie project his own production company, “Johnny Be Goode”, was creating.  I posted about it at the time.  Further information suggested that The Protocol was to be a TV series, possibly meaning the film made in 2013 was some sort of pilot or footage to be used in presentations to studios as an example of what the show would be like.  We only ever saw evidence of a single set in use so we don’t know how much filming was actually done.  Little is known about the plot, beyond the fact it is set in the not-too-distant future where everyone is under the control of the government from birth.

The change is that about one week ago The Protocol appeared on IMDb.  It is listed as a TV series.  Since then four cast members have been added: Kathryn (as Grace), Johnny (as Jake Chase), Xen Sia (as Amanda Chase) and Max Ryan (as Michael Logan).  Key crew members, including writers and the director, have also appeared.

We must take into account that anyone can submit updates to IMDb.  Those updates are moderated prior to posting though, and creating a new entry such as for a TV show or film is only possible by a few people.  The information was most likely submitted by someone closely connected with the project.

It is a sign of progress in the project.  We just don’t know what at this stage.

I was told a little while ago that we will get to see the pilot episode with Kathryn in it but no time scales were mentioned.

As a result of the IMDb update I’ve moved the albums covering The Protocol that were in the Gallery from the film section to the TV section.  It’s new home is here.

We will have to keep a eye on this one.

Summer Of HD 2014 – Final Result

The winner of our final poll of the KM UK Summer Of HD, taking 100% of the votes, is The River.  Congratulations to it.  Come back next Monday for the episode’s HD screencap update.

That just leaves The Hen House as the last episode to be covered, that will come the following week.

Thank you to everyone that took part in the voting.

Cold Case S03E20 – Death Penalty: Final Appeal HD Screencaps

Cold_Case_S03E20_lilly_001Lilly’s hot, and not just in the sense of the word we often use around here 😛  The a/c is broken in the squad room so, technically, every one is feeling the heat  :-)

This episode takes a slightly different approach to the normal unsolved case process.  This one’s already been solved.  A perp is doing time in the big house for this one.  But now the arresting officer has been found to be corrupt and cases he is involved in  are under question.  The jailed man is going to the even bigger house in the sky in three days unless someone takes his continuing claims of innocence seriously.  A call to Det Will Jeffries (Thom Barry) pricks his conscience.

Did the man currently on death-row, hired as an ex-con by a house moving company, kill the girl in her new home?  ‘Yes’, you say?  Do you not understand how these work by now?

As part of the KM UK Summer Of HD 2014 146 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps have been added to the Gallery.

The Coin’s San Pedro Film Fest Details

poster_001The previous post made me check on the other upcoming festivals where The Coin will be screened.

san_pedro_international_film_festival_300x308The Sunday after the St. Cloud International Film Festival showing it is the turn of San Pedro International Film Festival‘s (SPIFF) turn.  We previously reported on it here.

1pm on the 12th of October at the Grand Annex, 434 West 6th Street, San Pedro, The Coin will be part of the “Short Takes 3” event along with 6 other films.

Renée O’Connor, best known as Gabrielle on Xena: Warrior Princess stars in one of those.  It is 9 minute long short, like The Coin, set in the 1930s ‘Great Depression’ called The Usual.  Kathryn, as you of course know, guest starred in a couple of episodes Xena as a religious crusader called Najara.  Despite not being as powerful as some of Xena’s foes, she came closest of all to stealing Gabrielle away from her.

Kathryn and Renée on one bill!  That has to be worth a look!  No matter how brief  😉

Tickets ($11 in total) for the screening are available, along with full details, on the SPIFF website here.

St Cloud’s Forecast For October

saint_cloud_film_fest_poster_621x960Clouds are ephemeral things but the St. Cloud Film Festival is firming up.

Just two weeks ago we brought you the news that the short film The Coin had been chosen to be part of the line up of the St. Cloud Film Festival.

At the time there was little detail available regarding actual screening events within the 6 day event.

In the past couple of days the organisers have released a preliminary schedule of happenings which means we can now say with some certainty where and when The Coin can be seen.

Sunday, the 5th of October at 3pm a collection of 11 short films of various types will be shown at the Pioneer Place Theatre in Saint Cloud, Minnesota.

The tickets are already on sale at the very reasonable price of $5 for a screening totalling nearly 2 hours of films.  A ticket covering the whole festival is only $20.  See the event’s website here for more details.

Any Minnesotans out there going along?
