Author Topic: Brainwrapcomics Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 07-06-2004 01:05 AM                     this is absolutely hilarious!!! My boss looks just like Penelope!!!  |  IP: Logged Kyle Thiessen Film Handler Posts: 13 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 07-06-2004 02:29 AM                        Generally, the response has been pretty positive. Most of my burgeoning fanbase are regular readers of the hundreds of other "webcomics" out there... it's nice to know -- and somewhat more rewarding -- that the comic is striking a chord with movie theatre slaves. I'll concede, the situations are funnier if you know who the characters are based on. That wasn't intentional; there just happens to be a lot of in-jokes due to its autobiographical nature. Luckily, though, most people don't notice -- or at the very least, don't care. Anyway, I encourage any and all compliments or criticism. Both play an equal part in motivating me to continue. Having had no formal art schooling, I never learned about focus and discipline, so keep those opinions coming and I'll keep the comics coming. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna get back to working on this stinking thing.  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 07-06-2004 08:10 AM                     What was the acronym for USHER again?  |  IP: Logged Kyle Thiessen Film Handler Posts: 13 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 07-06-2004 01:28 PM                        quote: Richard Greco What was the acronym for USHER again?

Don't worry; that'll change one day. Creepy projectionist introduced on Page Eleven Scary projection booth introduced on Page Twelve Okay, well, I'm done pimpin'. I promise. kyle t.  |  IP: Logged Andrew Shingleton Film Handler Posts: 63 From: Richmond, Victoria, Australia Registered: Feb 2004 posted 07-15-2004 04:48 AM                     That's not too bad a light... it's quite smart to get someone else to do all the heavy lifting if you can con someone into it. From what I've heard though, that's almost exactly how a lot of non-projectionists imagine the projection room to be like. Dark and mysterious, and full of strange things and strange people. Not too far from the truth usually! I showed this comic to a bunch of the guys that work at my cinema the other day, right after they'd spent 5 hours putting standees together. So needless to say you've got a few more fans now too! Keep up the good work!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 07-15-2004 06:16 AM                     Haha, that's hilarious! Every theater has a projectionist just like that too!  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Fuentes Mmmm, Dr. Pepper! Posts: 1168 From: Corpus Christi, TX United States Registered: Jan 2004 posted 07-15-2004 06:50 AM                     Thats hilarious!! I started at a theater when I was about 17, and I also had back problems.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 07-15-2004 11:45 AM                     This comic is awesome. Do you draw everything by hand and then scan it in, or is most of it done on the computer? Of course, the posters and standees are "digital" ***EDIT*** OH MY GOD!!! I'm still laughing at the first strip... THAT MANAGER!! That thing is EXACTLY what I had to put up with at the Regal when it changed GMs. Why are all "lifetime theater chain middle management" fat? =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 07-15-2004 05:09 PM                        That's most definitely the parking lot of my first theatre, the beloved Edwards Westend 8 in Corona, CA (that is now a Choc Thrift Store ... what, a dollar-theatre--sorry, DISCOUNT theatre--didn't make enough money to stay in business!?) (By the way, nice TMBG banner at the top. It's a great album. Short. But great.)  |  IP: Logged Matthew Bailey Master Film Handler Posts: 461 From: Port Arthur,TX Registered: Sep 2000 posted 07-15-2004 05:38 PM                     I'm the newest www.deviantart.com member.

Projectionist: "Define "Work"" Gotta love it. That had mw laughing for a bit. Can't wait till the end of the month!!  |  IP: Logged James B. Openshaw Expert Film Handler Posts: 106 From: Mt. Pleasant, SC, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 07-15-2004 06:32 PM                        Wow, does that ever bring back the "old days" of working at AMC Seven Hills 10 (Notice how I didn't put "good" before "old days") The uniform, the videos, the standees, the "box full o' trailers", the 'witch'. However, I envy you Kyle (or your character), you were treated better. Great comic, looking forward to page 13.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 07-15-2004 07:17 PM                        quote: Brad said: Every theater has a projectionist just like that too!

I draw it, scan it, color it in Photoshop. More details appear on the somewhat verbose about page. Thanks for reading, people! Glad you like it.  |  IP: Logged
