The Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Press Room

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; May 28, 2024)     While the line-up for Twenty Years Young has continued to evolve, we've got a twist that we're sure you weren't expecting: an all-new film! Read all about it in today's news update! Galactic Convoy  will be Released on June 14, 2024!      Just in time for brickfilms.com's Universe and Beyond competition (an unofficial part of LEGO's recent space brand marketing push), an all-new space-faring adventure titled Galactic Convoy  will be released on June 14! This short film follows a group of four extraterrestrial runners-for-hire who are moving cargo on behalf of Futuron Corporation, but things take an action-packed turn when Blacktron Renegades jump on their heels! This colorful film will be a modern tribute to the classic factions of LEGO Space while introducing not just a new cast of characters to the cinematic universe, but also an entire universe that exists outside...

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; May 18, 2024)     Today is International Museum Day, so we're going all in today like Dr. Kilroy and creating our own exhibit of the history of the Johnny Thunder Saga, our own franchise adapting the LEGO Adventurers theme! Here's a brief history of that franchise and where it's going today. 2002-2004 - Before the Saga: The Canceled and Lost Johnny Thunder Films     Ever since the early days of the pre-formation era, attempts at creating a LEGO Adventurers-based film were actually fairly commonplace. Some of these used the LEGO Studios Steven Spielberg Movie Maker Set, while others were intended to use more sophisticated software. However, all of these titles were either lost or were canceled during their development. Below is a list of these Johnny Thunder-based films and what they were about, as well as what happened to them. Temple Escape Trilogy  - Oh, boy. Should we even begin with the most...

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; May 4, 2024)     It is May the 4th, Star Wars Day, and while we don't usually tackle LEGO themes that the LEGO Group produces under license, we've tried and failed to explore the Star Wars Galaxy in the past! Here are all of the attempts that we've made into this space and why they failed for one reason or another. 2002: Steven Makes Star Wars     Our earliest attempt at a LEGO Star Wars  fan film dates all the way back to the pre-formation era, back when the LEGO Studios Steven Spielberg Movie Maker set was still in use. Most of the films made in the early months of the pre-formation era amounted more to animation tests than anything else, but a few standouts, for both the right and wrong reasons, were produced during this era. Outside of memorable pre-formation films such as the Speeder  trilogy, one film that snuck under the radar was Steven Makes Star Wars .     In retrospect,...

  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...
