The Year in Review: 2011

By: Andrew Bermudez (Lego Studios; December 27, 2011)      The studio's busiest year yet is about to come to a close. In fact, we released more films this year than we have in any other preceding year with 8 films, among other things. Let's take a look back and see what was done. January      The first month of the year kicked off with The First Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards . At the ceremony, Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo took home five of the eight awards that night. "It's so great to see that, three years after its release, the film is still recognized and highly revered by our fans," said director Steven Lawrence. A work-in-progress was also announced, called Making Tracks . Originally, it was supposed to be an entry into Tales of Yore, but because of a gridlock, the project was put on indefinite hold.

You can check them both out on our re-imagined YouTube channel by clicking on the "Videos" tab. During their screenings over the past week, both films were well received by their audiences.

All New Ask Mark Matthew!
