Hi All
A friend of mine has been working on a documentary about sci-fi fandom. Lots of Star Wars, Star Trek and other genres. He filmed in pretty well all in our province of Alberta in Canada. I appear in the documentary as well talking about collecting.
The link is http://www.pegwarmers.tv/
About half way down on the left hand column, I am listed
That is really cool Jeff.
Way to go!
THAT WAS AWESOME... when is it going to be done.. those are my people.. I'm a Pegwarmer. I'm going to put my pre-order in now. Can't wait for the finished product.
I think it will be done soon, my friend is working on the final post production pieces and the finishing pieces of the score. Will keep you updated on when it is completed.
Hey Jeff... any word on this project?
I will check for you on that Kenny, and let you know
Thanks Jeff.. I'm really looking forward this movie.
Hi Kenny, I spoke with my friend last night about the Documentary, he is just finishing up the Score, has about 12 minutes left. He said he is doing a push today on it, so he is hopeful to have it done by the end of the weekend. So will keep you updated on it.
Thanks for the update Jeff..
Hey Rico... I enjoyed your latest podcast about the new Star Wars Fan Film Doc.
I think you should do a podcast on Jeff's freind who is doing this awesome looking Pegwarmers Fan Film Doc. This looks like it's going to be right up Trek SF's alley.. Scif Fi/Fantasy/Collectors/Fan/Geeks/ActionFigures. What do you think??
I will be getting a copy of this when it comes out.
Yeah I'll be buying a copy as soon as it comes out.. looks great.
Hey Jeff.. what happen to the website... are things still on track??
Domain Inaccessable
This domain has been suspended or does not exist on this server, please contact your hosting provider.
I will check on that and see. I suspect that he let the domain lapse mistakingly. Everything is still a go, and he is just finishing up the credits. I will try and get you a promo copy Kenny.
Yay!!! the site is back up. Every time I watch that trailer it brings a smile to my face. They are so my people :)
This looks great! Really looking forward to it! Have to grab them for an interview sometime for the podcast.

I think that would be a great idea!!!!
Hey Jeff,
Any word from your friend about his Documentary? I know he had his premiere in September... did you go to that? Is he tweaking it still? Can't wait for this movie.
If you haven't seen the trailer check it out...
Hi Kenny, I did not get a chance to go to the Premier as I had to work that day and could not get the time off work :( . It is all complete, he is just working on distribution right now, as he has few companies interested in distributing it for him. Once he has that confirmed, then he will start promoting it, such as Ricos podcast. Drop me an email Kenny and I will get Jason to send you a preview copy.
Well today I got a certain DVD from a guy in Canada.. it's was my special preview copy of Pegwarmers. I have been chatting with Jason (producer) the past year and he was kind enough to send me an advanced copy of the movie. As soon as I got home from work I had to watch it and it was AWESOME. Our very own "jedi" Jeff is featured and is great. It covers the wide range of geekdom, from collecting toys to dressing up to DnD. It's so well made for being a "fan" produced documentary. I can't wait to get the official DVD when it come out. You can tell the folks behind this film really love being a geek. I have seen a few of the "fan" made documentary about geekdom "The Force Among Us" and "George and Me" and this just is way above those in content and production value. Everyone who is a geek needs to check this out when it comes out on DVD.
Hi Kenny, I am happy you enjoyed it :) . Hopefully Jason get the distribution finalized soon.
I hope so.. this is a must have for geeks.
Cool trailer! I love that they included Renfesters! I can't wait for it to come out. :)
Pegwarmers is getting props at Slice of Sci fi.. check it out.
PegwarmersTV — An Insider's View Into Geekdom
The world of Sci-Fi and fantasy fandom is bigger now that it has ever been. Today there are a record number of science-fiction franchises bringing in huge profits every year, with millions of fervent fans connecting online and at conventions all over the globe. And yet, most people still think of these pointy eared, white armored, multi-sided-dice slinging fanatics simply as the lunatic fringe.
But who are these people? Why do they risk ridicule for what many outsiders consider nothing more than a trivial and juvenile pursuit?. Pegwarmers delves into the world of Sci-Fi and Fantasy fandom to discover what makes these devoted fans tick, and why it seems that "geek", has become "chic"
Outrageous and often insightful, Pegwarmers is the feature length documentary that looks to uncover the veil of mystery and examine the stigma that surrounds this often misunderstood subculture. So set your phasers on stun, and join in on a Galactic adventure, as the documentary takes a passionate insiders look at the worlds of toy and comic collecting, Sci-Fi and Medieval costuming, fantasy gaming and everything else in between.
