A Note To Paul Guzzo: Don't Flatter Yourself

It was
cool to have Chris (Passinault) come out to the screening last night.
A very cool guy and not the villain that this site has made him out to
be at all.

I've heard a lot of good things about this year's HHPS weekend.
Chris Passinault's review of Sunday's events will run later this week.
Commenting on anyone's "villain" status would require more room
than I have here in Readers' Comments, but suffice it to say all involved
parties know the score, and my decision to unite you two at this year's
event was unpopular to say the least. Not everyone agrees that minimizing
so much old bad history is a good idea, and I respect that, but neither
do I believe that it is necessarily futile. So far, I haven't been disappointed.
I think it will work out in the end as long as everyone stays civil. I
hope I don't see the process reverse itself.

Count me down as someone who thinks it's a bad decision
to have either of them mentioned, let alone writing, here. You're obviously
more patient and tolerant a man than I.
Showcase Legend PG (Paul Guzzo) [28-10-2008 05:10]
I second Acting Legend Puff ... kissing butt suddenly doesn't
really make up for building websites to slam us. A creep is a creep is
a creep. I dont even like my name on the same website as a man like him,
hence my new name.
With
this posted on another web site, allow me to clarify some points for the
last poster, Paul Guzzo.
When he refers to “web sites”, dear Paul Guzzo is referring
mainly to the Tampa Bay Film web site and the Tampa Film Blog.
Paul, don’t flatter yourself. I created Tampa Bay Film not to slam
you and your friends, but because Tampa indie film had to be covered and
addressed by qualified professionals. Sadly, Paul, in my opinion, that’s
not you. You have issues, issues that will prevent you from being a player
in the Tampa indie film community of the near future.
Tampa Bay Film has become the top Tampa indie film resource, and is the
voice of Tampa indie film. You hate me for that, because you want to be
the leader of Tampa indie film, I suppose. What goes on in that mind of
yours, I can only guess.
Did you know that Paul and his friend Lisa film fan are dedicated readers
of the Tampa Film Blog and Tampa Bay Film? Talk about obsessive. I only
found out about this a few hours ago, but I always suspected that this
was so. I am happy that you two are my number one fans, and I can only
wonder how you will utilize some of the cool ideas and online tutorials
that will be featured here shortly. Pass them along, I suppose, just as
long as you are professional enough to cite the source. These are my ideas.
Remember that, because everyone else knows that they come from me. How
so? Because everyone else already regularly read all my sites, too. I
wouldn’t be surprised if this Tampa Film Blog now has more readers
than Lisa’s film fan blog. At least here we cut through the fluff,
tell it how it is, don’t play politics, don’t blindly promote
out buddies, don’t post a bunch of boring and pointless news, and
don’t kiss ass.
Speaking of kissing ass, it’s funny that you brought that up. Kissing
ass, well, “butt”, is really the last thing that I can be
accused of. The main reason that you and your friends cast me as an insane
villain is because I stand up to you people, fight back, and don’t
allow you to discriminate against me. Boy, you morons picked the wrong
person to pick a fight with, that’s for sure.
Now, we can continue on fighting, or find some way to get along. We can
try to respect each other. If you’d rather continue fighting, well,
I can do that, too. Just remember that I can go on fighting for many,
many years, and I’m sure that you don’t want that. If this
ill will continues, I can see it progressing in ways that will prove to
be a public relations nightmare for you and your clique. This is giving
me a lot of material to work with, and I am sure that you don’t
want to find yourself the star of indie film parodies and the butt of
jokes in several upcoming Tampa indie films.
I can already say that many Tampa actors and talent don’t like you.
A while back, a prominent Tampa actor talked to me for over an hour about
you, and it wasn’t good. I may be some sort of creep to you, but
you are one to many of the professionals that you aspire to work with,
and I pity you for that.
Hey, Tampa Film Blog fan, did you see the launch of the new second-generation
Tampa Bay Film Online Film Festival? Beautiful, isn’t it? What ever
happened to the online film festival that you tried to position against
the first Tampa Bay Film Online Film Festival? Why did you give up? Why
did it fail? I’d love to have some competition there. Well, perhaps
your buddy Danny-boy will step up to the plate for your and go to bat
in your honor. He can defeat it with his film café web site! Oh,
wait, that is failing, too! Why can’t the Tampa indie film clique
do anything right? The second contender stumbled out of the gate, and
I am disappointed. How pathetic. Well, I will say that Danny-boy’s
PHP web skills are better than mine are- for now. Web-wise and overall,
however, I have him smoked, and you all KNOW IT.
Tell me, can you guys go up against fifty web sites and win? I didn’t
think so. Just don’t think for a moment that these sites exist to
“slam” you. You people are nowhere near that important; the
web site fleet would exist and operate if you people never existed.
So, to stress my earlier post, the Tampa indie film war is over- for now.
These people seem to want it to continue, however. I leave them alone,
and they continue to post about me and run their mouths about things that
they don’t, and are not willing to, understand.
Ok, enough for now. I’ve had my fun with these jokes for today.
Going back to the second-generation Tampa Bay Film Online Film Festival,
it is doing great. What happened there is that we decided to separate
the online film festival from the main Tampa Bay Film site and make it
a stand-alone web site accessed from Tampa Bay Film. The first online
film festival was an outstanding success, and it successfully competed
against Tampa film festivals. This one has been improved in every way,
and was built with new code and from scratch, with enhancements and additions
which were learned from the first one. Right now, it doesn’t have
a lot of indie films playing on the site, but that will change sometime
later this month. We have a ton of additions planned for the Tampa Bay
Film Online Film Festival, and it is critical for what is coming next
year, or perhaps the year after.
I may not even have to do a monthly film festival event to compete against
the Tampa Film Review and to put it out of its misery. The Tampa Bay Film
Online Film Festival will be more than capable of doing that on its own.
I still am, however, going ahead with my own Tampa monthly film festival
and networking event series, the Tampa Film Showcase. If the TFR isn’t
done by the time that my Tampa film festival event series debuts, because
of competition with the Tampa Bay Film Online Film Festival, it will soon
after, as it won’t be able to compete with the event. The Tampa
Film Showcase is a Tampa Film Review killer in every single way, and will
be outclassed by a superior offering planned and executed by my team and
I, who are professional event planners (The Tampa Film Showcase will be
done by Eventi Stage, which is the stage production company of my event
planning company Eventi Events). When the TFR is dust, and the Tampa Film
Showcase remains, you can tell Danny-boy not to bother trying to network
at my film festivals with his sales workshop crap, too. I sincerely want
to help people, and won’t allow anything that could hurt the careers
of real Tampa indie film professionals. You might fall for that, but I’m
smarter than that. Obviously, I’m smarter than you are, too.
Oh, and while on the subject of event planning, I have a new blog for
you all to follow and read, too. The Tampa DJ Blog is now launching (should
be up tomorrow), and will tie into my DJ Frontier, Eventi Events, and
Eventi Stage web sites (on the Tampa DJ Blog, I will post as DJ Frontier,
and will be writing about event planning, DJ’ing, dance music, and
other cool things)! And here you guys though that I was only a great photographer.....
You didn’t realize that I made money as a professional event planner
and as a popular underground DJ long before I got into photography? Silly
guys! You sell yourselves short by constantly underestimating me. How
can you possibly compete if you don’t know the full scope of what
you guys are up against?
You all are pretty stupid when you come to picking fights, by the way.
I am the last person that you should have messed with. At least the others
can’t fight back and can be bullied. Boy, did you underestimate
me!
Paul is not a professional event planner, too. There, I said it. From
the very beginning, I bit my tongue and rolled my eyes are Paul’s
events. They are boring, and only make it by default because they are
presently the only game in town. Don’t worry that much, however,
as you guys have a little more time to improve the Tampa Film Review before
the real monthly film festival event competition arrives
Alrighty. The great Nolan mentioned the my review for the Halloween Horror
Picture Show 2008 will be up shortly. It already is. I also finished a
review for The Ladies Of The Night film festival, and will be publishing
one for the Horror and Hotties film festival in the next few days. You
probably already noticed that they are all now up on Tampa Bay Film, as
are the new score sheets for the Tampa film festival reviews. Enjoy, and
have a great day!
