Gen Con’s Events team is busy reviewing event submissions (there are nearly 9000 so far!), and will provide Event Listings to the public prior to the opening of Event Registration in the coming weeks. Check out upcoming newsletters for further details. To register for events, attendees must have a valid Gen Con Indy 2013 badge, so that event tickets may be linked to an attendee’s account. Important note: a badge and event tickets cannot be purchased in the same transaction. Also, make sure to go to the Gen Con Indy home page (you can click here) to make sure your account information is accurate and up to date. It won’t be long until August!
In case you guys haven’t noticed we have moved the podcasts 100 % from GenXnerd to it dedicated site TraumaticCinematic.com. Same generation x flavor but with a much more focused web presence.
Finally it seems like there is a light at the end of this conventionless Winter.. I have finally started seeing information for Gen Con popping up on FaceBook and Days of the Dead is starting to stir up the Indianapolis pot. Also Mike announced that he is going to C2E2 in Chicago which sadly I will not be able to attend.
Just as a reminder you all should be following the team on Twitter and our Facebook pages.

Wintertime is a tough period here in the Midwest. It seems all the good stuff starts in spring and ends before Thanksgiving. Sure there are a couple shows that we could travel too but with the family and “Day Job” it is hard to take away more time from the important things to travel somewhere and sit alone in a hotel room. We will we save that for the REALLY big shows like Gen Con, C2E2, Comic Con, and Days of the Dead! We are eagerly awaiting the season to arrive!
Folks and fiends I am proud to introduce the newest GenXnerd of hope and wonder! Mr. David DeMoss and signed the papers and sold his sold his soul to become part of this insanity. My guess is he will really clean the place up around here! Check out Mr. DeMoss’s main site And You Thought It Was Safe? and welcome him with knives and hammers!

Remember folks you can listen to the interviews and our thoughts about our Horror Hound experience by clicking play on the player bellow or following this link! Also don’t forget to check out the hundreds of photos we snapped at the show in our Horror Hound Weekend photo gallery.
This was the first Horror Hound convention that I was both aware of and attended and I was impressed from start to finish. We traveled to another horror convention earlier this year and it was half the show Horror Hound turned out to be. Granted the other show is still young and growing and learning HH really seems well-organized and had nice execution. I really like how they screened their films and laid out the show spread around the east side Marriott. Greymattersplat and I were both granted press passes and we walked the halls all three days and night. Something at these conventions I will never get use to is almost all of the famous people are right out in the open for the fans to see. There were a couple hidden behind doors but for the most part everyone I wanted to see were approachable. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Alright folks there is not enough time for me to discuss the Horror Hound Weekend tonight but I do want to let everyone know that the photo gallery is up and functional. I hope that you all find something you say WOW about in there and I encourage you to share the photos with your friends and on Facebook. I do want to thank everyone we met for being awesome and the promoters of Horror Hound for putting on a very well-organized show. Also don’t forget that we will have a podcast or two available soon (at Traumatic Cinematic) with all the interviews and reviews we recorded during the show. I have a stack of movies to watch, about 60 business cards to email/ contact, and several videos to edit and upload so it will be a busy week.
Rage, everything from calling your opponent every name in the book, to silently having your mind wrapt in anger. It happens to us all to some degree, yes, I even see a little anger in WhiteRa’s face from time to time. It is a natural reaction. you invest emotion into the game, and you try to impose your force, sometimes it doesn’t work. Anger comes from a primal part of our mind, early man, on thru evolution to relatively recently, anger to a degree got us thru a lot. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I have dubbed this week as horror week. This is not a national holiday nor is it October but it is 6 days away from the Horror Hound horror convention that is coming to my home town September 7-9. So in anticipation of this show I thought it might be enjoyable to explore our favorite horror movie experiences and share with you at home.
My earliest memory of the horror movie genre was going to the local theater with my mother and seeing Poltergeist. It was 1982 which would have made me 6ish and I loved the film all the way up to the end with the coffins popping up through the houses floor. This scared the happy out of me and I remember having trouble sleeping for a couple of weeks afterwords. Even though I was young I could appreciate having a work of fiction affect my emotions and I loved it even though I was afraid of every bump in the night for a while. I can honestly say that is the first and last time a movie actually scared me. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
