Hey everybody
Just would like to update you all on whats going on lately wth us.
Well earlier today I managed to get into contact with TNA Knockout Mickie "Moose" Knuckles and asked if she could do an interview for us on the 11th episode of The Suplah. Which she has agreed. This is a very big deal so be fore to keep an eye on out on YouTube for the video as it shall be up on Wednesday 6th August.
Also, uploaded earlier this week was the music video for MCW's wrestling event on the 6th of July which was recorded by myself and Michael (www.youtube.com/mickall) and also edited by Michael. So enjoy the video:

Suplah Week 10 Contraversy
Well it has come to my attention that The Suplah Week 10 Uncut version has caused a bit of contraversy, and in so has apparently lost us help from somebody from the writers guild who was trying to help us get more exposure in the film business.
I was shown that I apparently use the word "gay" as an insult aimed towards Tom multiple times though out the show. This may make it look like I am homophobic. Believe me I am not homophobic, I have a number of gay and bisexual friends and I have always believed in doing what makes you happy (as long as your not killing or hurting people... cause thats just weird).
I was also told that in the video, it appears that I try and assassinate Tom's character and belittle him on camera for amusement. This is also false. If I had ANYTHING against Tom, he would not even be featured in any FOW Projects let alone be the main star for nearly all of the things we did. Tom is one of my best friends and I would NEVER think of hurting him in that way.
What the camera caught was the last few moments of the day. There had been a lot of issues before hand when filming new episodes of our web series "Shriek Watch" like creative differances between myself and Tom, add that onto the fact it was uncomfortably hot, only having 4 hours sleep and being extremlt hungry all adds up to one very grumpy Liam.
Same with Tom. I had been getting on his nerves all day aswell. And it was just unfortnunate that the camera was on when the "Explosion" happened.
I deeply regret what I said during the filming of The Suplah, but I do get very nasty when I get angry (a trate I picked up from my father) and sometimes I can't control my temper and I say and do things that I know I will regret.
Thanks to everybody who has kept supporting us though out this time, we still have plenty of great new stuff coming up for you, including some great new episodes of Shriek Watch and a brand new web-series called "Market Town". So keep your eye out for it :)

Everything Alright
Hey guys
Just wanted to update you on the situation of Tom.
Both sides have been talking and we have settled any differences we had and we're back in buisness and even talking about a possible new skit show.
So thanks to everybody, and look out for uncut Suplahs on google videos.

FOW Pictures on Hiatus
Well... err.
It seems Tom Bancroft, who is the main actor in FOW Pictures, may have left the group for good.
Earlier today, Tom and myself seemed to have had a small argument, which resulted in Tom storming out of my house during the filming of the 10th episode of The Suplah.
With Tom now possibly out of FOW Pictures, that means that many of our up-coming projects may be on hiatus untill we can get some new people with acting experiance. Unfortunatly though if Tom does remain out of the group, it will see the end of the Shriek Watch series (which we just finished filming Episode 6), aswell as stopping any production on the up-coming Liberty film, as well as the Guitar Zero sequal we were planning for this winter.
I will just take this time to express my opinion of what's happened today.
Tom left because apparently I was moaning to him all day. Ok so I admit I can be a bit of a handful when it comes to filming as I basically need everything to be perfect, and if it's not it winds me up. However during the filming of The Suplah, Tom (who was off camera) was doing everything he possibly could to try and get himself noticed on the show itself, interupting at random points during the show with completely useless gags that wern't funny and just disturbed the flow of the show itself. This was getting on mine and Andy's nerves so (because it's the kind of person I am) I told Tom to shut up and let us finish filming. He then continued to be a pratt where at one point he accidently kicked my laptop, the one I do all my film work on. I then had a go at Tom for that, which resulted in him storming out.
I later found out that Tom had been annoyed at me all day because I had a go at him about misplacing my PS3 controller and the tripod to the camera.
Unfortunatly, what Tom seem's to not understand is that these are MY things, and he's treating them with the utter most disrespect. If I went over to his house, misplaced his X-Box controller, messed up his bedroom, used his house as if it was a hotel with it's own maid and then kicked his computer (even if it was by accident) I'm pritty sure he'd feel the exact same way I felt.
Now I can hear many of you saying "why did you have a go at him for accidently kicking your laptop", yeah ok that would be fair enough, thing is though is that he didn't even apologise for kicking it, all he kept saying was that is was by accident. Yeah? That's ment to make everything ok is it? What if he accidently kicked the laptop so hard that it fell off the bed and broke? It may have been an accident but I would expect him to apologise and buy be a new one. Now I'm not saying he has to get me a new laptop, but the fact that he didn't even apologise is what annoyed me.
Tom seem's to forget what I have done for him. I personally chose him to be my main actor in FOW's films and shows. I made it so that he can add the fact he's been in 3 films that were entered into film festivals onto his CV. Me casting him into the films gave him a MUCH bigger portfolio than what he would have had AND if it wasn't for ME casting him in our films, Tom would never have been contacted by somebody who used to be in the media writing guild helping him try and get his big break in Hollywood.
The ever so lovely Mr. Bancroft has yet to realise that all of this wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for me. Hopefully after reading this though he may just realise that fact, get over himself and come back and finish off these films.

Brand New Liberty Trailer
Well here's a trailer for our upcoming film named "Liberty"
as you can proberly tell, the film is made using the video game "Grand Theft Auto"
We did this because this technique gives us many new oppotunities. I mean let's face it, we're not going to be able to hire out the whole of New York City, blow up helicopters in mid air and have people flying all over the place because of the explosions (which again is hard to do with the current stage we're at). However at the same time, it gives us more limitations, for example our control on the film is less in this one due to the computer doing basically whatever it wants.But stay tuned, shall be an interesting film if it's not a good one :)

Starting The Blog With A Smile On Our Faces
Hey guys.
Ok, well this is the first blog here on the site, and it will be used to basically just tell people who are interested on upcoming things with FOW Pics. Like upcoming project's or important news.
Now the first entry into our blog is about VERY big news indeed.
As you may know from watching "The Suplah Week 9", I recently did some work for the UK based wrestling company MCW, along with my good friend and fellow film maker Michael Watson (www.youtube.com/mickal).
It turns out that MCW are planning to get a TV deal on the UK sports channel "Sky Sports". If they manage to get this slot, they will continue to have us as their film crew and allow us to put our logo's in the show, i.e in the opening of the show and on the skirting of the ring.
Now, obviously this isn't a done deal, and even if they do get the TV pilot we don't know when they want to do it. So we're trying out best to not get our hopes up about it, but hopefully for the UK citizens, they'll see FOW Pictures on their TV screens soon.
In other great news, FOW Pics actor Tom Bancroft has been talking to somebody on youtube who believes him to be a great actor, and has forwarded to him a list of agents. This is great for Tom because now he may be able to star in actual films, but bad for us as we'll lose him and (with him being the main character in a lot of our stuff) some of the shows/films we have planned may have to be scrapped (I hate it when films replace the actor's)
