Thanks for posting the reminder Walt.  I just check my comcast OnDemand movies and Hobo is there.  I will order it later on tonight or this weekend  :)

Walter, I am watching it tonight as well (but of course now it is April 4th,) and coincidentally, my job is Verizon Fios tech support, so if the VOD ever goes down while you're watching just reboot the router, because that and your tv guide stream from the internet. Also, if you haven't already, download the Inhome Agent. Believe it or not, that thing can fix most any issue (telephone, internet and tv) that you might encounter, then you don't have to call tech support, wait forever, then have to talk to some moron like me.  ;)

Thank Golfy,

For me, Verizon Fios has been bulletproof. I've had it for 3-4 years and have had no problems with it at all. Enjoy the movie, we did :D

Robb was at the very beginning and I enjoyed it very much. I didn't see Sam but I made a point of trying to watch the movie as a whole and not to get distracted by looking for people I know or looking for me in the scenes I was in. That will be for a second look.

Haha Fishy, you don't remember me shouting "Look, there's SAM! There! Sam! Fishy! Look! Sam!"

I remember you seeing him but I can't recall you shouting. Maybe it has to do with beverage's consumed at Bubba Ray's before hand. ;) :beermug:

That reminds me, Jason Eisener did a great IAmA (Q&A session) on Reddit:

One thing that has impressed me about the 'Hobo experience' is the effort put into promoting the movie online. Never mind all the effort spent shooting the movie, Eisener, Cotterill, Davies et al put lots of work in producing a production blog and trailer (VITAL if you want to create a buzz early on), shared lots of photos, videos, updated fans via Twitter and Facebook, published fan art, movie reviews, did a Reddit interview, and even held their own fake trailer contest. They totally pwned the niche horror movie blogs, and posted reviews good and bad (not that there was any bad ones!) You could see the passion and excitement in their posts, and it was nice to know the 'guys at the top' were working their asses off to talk about the movie with the online community.

If you want people to feel postive about your work (and tell their friends), it's good to communicate and give people a sense of ownership, even if it's just a reply to a tweet or posting their fake movie poster on your Facebook page.

Nice one, guys.   8)

OK, social media marketing lecture over, go see their site! It's pretty!

Yeah, Robb gettin' his head ripped off is in the internet trailer for the movie. I'm wondering why he didn't have a bigger part. I personally think he could be our generation's Jackie Gleason if he wanted to be. I'm kinda glad he doesn't, though.

I found Hobo on Fios this last weekend, but it's priced as $10 premier.

Guess after all this positive review, I should just suck it up, but I literally hate the idea of paying theater price for cable on demand. 
[deep sigh] ohh-ohhkay, I'll do that this weekend if it's still available.

Now your talking Fishy.  I can wait a little bit, get the disc, and find scenes you, and Tiggy Puddin are in.   Then I can claim to other people I know someone in showbiz.   :)

Yea, or perhaps the mob under the bridge, or the people on the streets in several scenes.  I rented it today, for 2 days.

We were near the end when the Hobo gets put in the glory hole and we were in the scene with the citizens attacking the police. We were on the balcony behind the Drake so it was dark. I didn't see either of us when I first saw the movie so I'll look harder the next time.
That scene was filmed where Julian got Trevor to shoot the gumball machine with his gun.

Awesome!! I've got it DVR'd so I can slo-mo and find y'all. When I do, I'll take screen shots. I can't say enough how much I love this movie! It must've been fun shooting it!
