1. Highwaymen- a lightsaber fan film

Please leave your comments here:

And check out the blooper reel here:

youtube.com/watch?v=vMP0VGbRfPc&feature=related

Sent by the guild on a mission to deliver information to a well paying custumer, a courier is ambushed by two highwaymen while passing through a less than savory area of country known as no mans land. In the insuing battle, the strength, skill, and endurance of each of the warriors is tested.

Why did we make this?

1:With all the crappy lightsaber videos that you can find online these days, we thought we should make one that would accually be worth the time that it takes to watch.

2: It's just plain cool to see yourself on-screen fighting with a lighsaber!

3: Why not?

This project is a sort of sequel to the youtube film Final Reunion. And no, we aren't the star wars fans that dress up like jedi and believe that we can use the force. But we did have a lot of fun making this film and are pleased with how it turned out. We hope that you enjoy it, and if you do maybe tell your friends:)

    Very fun to watch. I thoroughly enjoyed every part. Choreography was great too. Maybe a sequel to expand on what these "Guild" or "Core" are.

    I think its great that you guys dont focus on the force or dress up and all. However these aren't bad things. Then again you aren't hard core Star Wars fans either.

    You guys inspired me to actually start working on my own film with my friends. I've had the idea for awhile but watching a couble of ordinary guys like me create great, entertaining films has gotten me to be serious about my own.

    Thanks guys keep up the good work.

  • Derek Bommel 1 year ago

    I should add that I liked the idea of using a cortorsis forearm brace or whatever. Or i guess I should say lightsaber proof shield. Not sure how much you guys are fans of star wars and whether you would know what cortorsis seeing that you said up there that you weren't huge sw fans. It was good to see something new.

    the one part i loved the most though was when the dude with the yellow lightsaber (jonathan im guessing) disarmed derek sergically and effectively quick. that part of the choreography was very good. not to mention i though jonathan had a great voice when he had derek down. when i look back on what i said i seems really gay lol. but really though jonathan's voice was perfect. lol for a second it sounds like mark hamil.

    Epic. Did you enter this in any competition/film festival or did you just make it for yourselves?

  • Derek Bommel 1 year ago
    We just made it for fun mostly. But this film did end up getting me a full time job doing video production for a ministry in Arkansas.
