If this trailer doesn’t make you want to see this film, then perhaps it will get you to at least dress up in a costume and enter a certain contest on this site (nudge, nudge, wink, wink). [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPceD3CrQeg[/youtube] Seriously, I met these guys at San Diego a couple of years ago, and as weird as they may be, I still have to give them credit for trying their damnedest to make something of their lives.

You know those guys that hang out on Hollywood Boulevard in superhero costumes so you can take pictures? Turns out there is a documentary about them, directed by Matt Ogens. Pic chronicles the alternately poignant and amusing paths of the struggling actors who pay the bills by playing superheroes on Hollywood Boulevard. Central characters are Batman, Superman, the Hulk and Wonder Woman. Now there’s a crossover you probably didn’t expect to see… The film will screen at AFI in October. via Variety

I don’t cosplay for a reason – I don’t got the build for spandex,, although if you’ve seen me lately, I could probably pull of that late 50s, early 60s Lex Luthor look.  That doesn’t stop all sorts of people from joining in the fun. I never knew sneakers, berks and shorts were part of the official Starfleet uniform. Do you cosplay?  Send us pics of yourself all dolled up – I may have a contest forming. via My Extra Life
