- Scott Melzer will be hosting his latest fan parody film "Fanboy Soze vs. The Reanimators of the Otakulypse" followed by a Q&A:
"Fanboy Soze vs. The Reanimators of the Otakulypse" 2011, 44 minutes.
The creators of "This Is Otakudom" and "S.T.E.A.M.: The Movie" present their brand new third fan parody. In the not so distant future anime fandom is everywhere and everyone is an Otaku. But all is not well in this fanboy paradise! The corporate giant Megatainment controls all anime in the US and horribly butchers classic shows to make a buck. A small group of fans has had enough and tries to take down the evil monopoly. What can possibly go wrong?
"The future of anime fandom is about to be rewritten. And censored. And edited."
The Fanboy Soze vs. The Reanimators of the Otakulypse screening with Q&A session will be taking place on Friday Aug. 12th at 8:00 pm (20h00) in Panel 7 (Room - 520ABDE)
