Three New Announcements!

     As spring break wears on, there has been lots of activity here at the studio, including the fixing and 3-D conversion of Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo. So, we would like to announce some new developments. Let's get started!

     First off, we are pleased to announce that we will be rebooting the Com 50 saga! "Back when they were first created, the Com 50 trilogy received tremendous praise," said Mustache Maniacs Film Co. CEO Andrew Bermudez. "In fact, at The Second Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards, Com 50 and 007 won for best re-release, proving their popularity to this day." Just like the original films, this reboot will be created in live action. Andrew continued, "This diversification will get us back into the live action business, adding yet another project that fans can look forward to in addition to the ten Project U films." The first film in this new saga, titled Com 50: Reborn, will be released late Summer 2015, shortly after the release of Alpha Team: Mission Deep Jungle.

     In addition to this, the third wave of Project U-Build Play Set Adventures will feature our own wave of "blind bag" characters (except these won't be so blind bag, as just the instructions will be provided). This first series will feature characters from the first ten years of Mustache Maniacs Film Co., including Billy the Kid, Stew LaRoache, Baron Von Stuka, and others. There are 4 series planned for the entire run of the play set adventures, which will feature characters to tie into upcoming films.

     However, with all good news, there must be bad news. After complications to get Johnny Thunder and the Wisdom of the Ancients completed, efforts are being made to streamline its completion. Therefore, the re-release Jolly Roger and the Pirate Queen has been cancelled. "We thought hard about this," said Andrew. "We've decided that it's for the best in the interest of quality. It may not be our best film, but it would have been nice to show off. However, we can't have everything." To reflect these changes, the Mustache Maniacs Film Co. website will be updated tomorrow.

     Now, it's time for our challenge. Obviously, because it's April Fool's Day, you'll have to take everything with a grain of salt. However, one of these announcements IS legitimate news. The question now is which one? Leave your guess in the comments, and we'll have Mark Matthew provide the answer in tonight's Ask Mark Matthew.
