Can I have your autograph? Well, Ya, I know it's a blank check, but it's the only piece of paper I have handy right now.

Great job!! Congrats !!!!

Keep up posted (no pun intended) on a release date. (I know it will be a while) Maybe they could get you a part in the movie. You could be the guy that floods the trim tanks and washes half the drugs into the ocean and creates a new species of "flying fish" only they are whales......

Exit Stage Left.

are we sure this isn't an April Fools joke?

Edit: nothing on imdb for either actor or the movie title... and the aintitcool link, while clever, links to a fake site...

nice job though, I almost bought it! If it were real, I'd want IN!!

It's definately an April fools. I can prove it! If we'd bought a US sub and re-fitted it, we would have cut down the fair water to a late war configuration, so it looked cooler.

Didn't that one never really go away and kept 'resurfacing' much to some people's annoyance? I'm sure there's some rule about April fool's and after midday (depnding on the TZ it was posted in of course).

Obviously Neal bought that name and set up that website with the cheque he got for selling his screenplay.
