Studio Update: Welcome to Hey, Monkey!

 By: Andrew Bermudez

(Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; August 1, 2024)

    We may not have a cookie, but we do have a brand-new month theme, based on An Afternoon at the Zoo! Let's zoom on in like a chimpanzee riding on a segway and take a look at this more laid-back month!

Hey, Monkey!: What to Expect in August

    Hey, monkey! Heh, heh, hey, monkey! Who's wants some new releases? We've got some new releases and more coming, so here's everything that set to be released this month:

  • The production gallery for Ninjago: Visions of Memories will be released on August 5.
  • On August 17, the interactive game Shady Acres Super Sleuth will return with fully functioning interactivity. No changes will be made to the experience.
  • The early storyboard animatic and art gallery for Alms Pouch will have its debut on August 21.
  • The long-awaited special edition for Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo is making its triumphant debut on August 23.
  • A press release discussing the brief history of the cancelled game Zoo Flight will be shared later in the month.
  • New art designs, including the Torgo's Atlantic Excursions logo from Howling Hollow: The Forest of Fear, will debut late in the month in the art & apparel store.
  • New merchandise, including a limited physical release of Camel: The Album, will soon debut in the collectibles store.

This list is subject to change without notice, so check back for new updates!

Catching Up from Falling Behind!

    You might have noticed that, unlike what was originally planned, there are no completely new releases this month. This is because we've fallen behind on several projects, including The Fourth Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards. We're going to need time to finish all of them, and after evaluating the actual production timeline for Galactic Convoy, we're working to balance all of it out. Therefore, this month will be a work month for us.

Taking a Look at Galactic Convoy, Our Latest Film!

    To give you an idea of how hectic the end of July was, we've just found time to talk about our latest film, Galactic Convoy, which was released on July 26! While this film gave us a reality check on how much time it takes to make an effects-heavy film, it did allow us to expand the cinematic universe into space with new characters and locations! It's been receiving praise for its effects and story, especially noteworthy since the film had a three-month turnaround. More importantly, this has also spurred talks of a sequel at some point in the future.

A More Realistic Schedule for the Rest of 2024!

    With that said, the fact that a third of Galactic Convoy's production timeframe was the editing alone, this has given us a framework to use when working on the rest of the new projects for the rest of the year. Because of this, release dates have been shuffled, which has resulted in the current schedule, which is listed below.

  • Sackie's Mishap (And Other Tales) - September 6
  • Ten Years of Going Crazy!: Celebration Soundtrack - September 6
  • The Fourth Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards - September 20
  • Mustache Maniacs Film Co.: The Visual Dictionary - 3rd Edition - September 23
  • William's Bell Overture: The Symphony of the Realities - September 27
  • Cooking With Flex: Recipes from Around Mustache Maniacs Film Co.'s Cinematic Universe - October 6
  • Alms Pouch: Finished At Last! - October 25
  • Tales Across the World: A Short Story Collection - November 8
  • A Future in the Past - November 29
  • The Archivist - December 20

Be aware that this schedule can and will change without notice. If any new updates are made, we will let you know. The rest of the re-releases and behind the scenes material is sticking to its current release dates and will not change.

Along the way, the characters meet Vladnichuk; a Russian arms dealer that Lord Sinister and his gang buy weapons from, Jerry Digalot; the cousin of James Digalot, Sarah Thunder; the Daughter of Johnny and Pippin (she wasn't in the first movie because she was in school), Hiram Aziz; an Egyptologist, and Slyboots; the villainous leader of the Egyptian Black Market.      A different type of beginning: Unlike the beginning for Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo , which featured a mysterious murder, the begi...

Original Classics as They Were are Returning with "Original Cuts," Coming April 18, 2024!

Image
  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; March 31, 2024)     Even in the midst of this celebration, we've just revealed some new ways to celebrate the day-of twentieth anniversary of Mustache Maniacs Film Co.! In addition to some new music albums and the release of artwork from our canceled projects, we're also introducing a new project titled Original Cuts ! What is the Special Project  Original Cuts ?      Long story short, Original Cuts  is a special project that aims to preserve classic Mustache Maniacs Film Co. movies as they were originally released. We realized during the backup of the physical archive last year that these DVDs are progressively getting worse for wear, and with 2015's DVD Archival Project only backing up the special editions of all of these films, these original versions were at risk of being lost forever. Something had to be done, which is where Original Cuts  comes into play.     As me...

Another 'Tales of the Adventurers' and New Cartoons Coming Soon!

Image
By: Andrew Bermudez (Lego Studios; March 6, 2011)      It's time for another edition of Tales of the Adventurers. But before we begin, here is the answer to the previous challenge: Unwanted Guest.      In the third panel, Lord Sinister is poking out from behind some crates on the dock. How did he find out about the treasure? This could turn ugly!      Now, here is the latest comic. The next challenge will be presented afterwards.      Here is today's challenge: Coordinate Confusion.      Use the navigation map in the comic to pinpoint the exact coordinates of where the Adventurers and Deep Sea Salvage Crew need to go (this one may be a little too easy!).      In other news, details have been revealed about the new cartoons the studio announced two months ago. The new cartoons will be a series called Freddy and Joey . Based on original bedtime stories, ...
