Revisiting Tomb Raider 2013

Posted on by

COVER-US-EMPTY-PITCH.inddA while back, there was some huge controversy over the then-upcoming Tomb Raider reboot, a game, which looked like it was going to go with a pretty misogynistic take on the famous video game heroine. I wrote a post about it, titled “The Rape of Lara Croft,” in which I attacked the game’s executive producer, Ron Rosenberg, for comments he made.

Rosenberg’s comments still read as pretty stupid, but it looks like it’s just an example of very poor phrasing. Because I did have the opportunity to play Tomb Raider. It was actually about a year ago, but I haven’t mentioned anything about it because I just kind of forgot about it. Then I recently saw something about the sequel to the game, the upcoming Rise of the Tomb Raider (which will be Xbox exclusive, at least at first, a pretty stupid decision IMO), and it reminded me that this was still a post I wanted to write.

So I have played Tomb Raider and far beyond what many of us feared it would be, it was actually a wonderful game. This is an inexperienced Lara, but it’s far from the “you’ll want to protect her” characterization Rosenberg gave her. Lara may be inexperienced in this game, but she’s tough and determined. It’s a great reinvention of the character and a whole lot of fun to play. In fact, this is very similar to what I’d hope a Myth Hunter game would look like. There’s even a DLC outfit called “Aviatrix,” that puts Lara in the look of a 1930s pulp adventurer!

Sometimes, we make snap judgments before we’ve got all the facts. And sometimes that means we get things wrong. I and others who spoke out against the Tomb Raider game were wrong and I apologize for my mistake. Yes, Rosenberg’s comments were pretty bizarre in light of the game, but that doesn’t make me any less wrong.

This is one time when I’m actually very happy to be proven wrong. Because I had a lot of fun playing this game and if the sequel ever comes to the PS4 (which I will likely purchase for the upcoming Batman: Arkham Knight), then I will happily pick that up as well. This is how a Tomb Raider game should be made and I’m very grateful that we got a very exciting reinvention of the character.

The POWER/RANGERS Debacle

Posted on by

PowerRangersfanfilm_article_story_largeSo there’s this new fan film out now called Power/Rangers. It’s around fifteen minutes long and features a grim and gritty reimagining of Saban’s Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers and stars Katee Sackhoff as Kimberly and James Van Der Beek as Rocky. SCG Power Rangers LLC, the company that owns the rights to the property, demanded it be taken down.

 

Adi Shankar, who created the short, isn’t backing down. In a response, he wrote: “I consider this an outright infringement on freedom of expression and individualism. … Films like my Power/Rangers ‘Bootleg’ are vital expressions of creativity in our troubled world. If we suppress this creativity and become passive participants in the consumption of the culture we live in, we implicitly allow a dangerous precedent to be set for the future of the internet.”

 

Some of the Internet chatter around this has thrown accusations at Haim Saban that his reaction to Power/Rangers is nothing more than jealousy that he can’t make something as good as this, or that he’s envious of all the attention it’s getting. To which I respond with three simple words: It. Doesn’t. Matter.

 

Saban and Power Rangers LLC own the rights to these characters. These are their toys. And if they don’t want anyone else to play with them without their express permission, then guess what? That’s their right! People have claimed that Saban is “whining” about this, but I say that Shankar is the real whiner here. He’s coming out and saying that he should have the right to use characters he doesn’t own in any way he sees fit, and if the copyright holders tell him to stop, then that’s stifling creative freedom. What about the freedom to control the properties you own? Why is that freedom not important to Shankar?

 

I’ve written fanfic, so I get Shankar’s desire to create something with characters he has a passion for. But every time you commission an unauthorized work featuring characters you do not own—regardless of whether or not it’s for profit—you run the risk of pissing off the people who own those properties. And if they tell you, “we don’t like what you’re doing with our characters, take it down,” then you have an obligation to respect their rights.

 

Growing up watching the Power Rangers doesn’t grant you ownership over them that supersedes the rights of the people who actually own the intellectual property. And no, just because you’re not making money off it doesn’t give you the right to do whatever you want.

 

But beyond that, there’s a larger question of appropriateness. Power Rangers is a show for children. And it’s still around today. Imagine you’re a parent and your kid is a fan of Power Rangers. He goes online and Googles Power Rangers and this video pops up. You walk in on him and see him watching a video where the Black Ranger is in bed with topless women (depending on which version you saw), where comic relief characters Bulk and Skull are portrayed as meth addicts, and where people are being murdered in bloody, gratuitous ways. How would you react? My guess is you’d be pretty pissed. I know I would be if I found out my young nephew stumbled upon this.

 

In the past, when kids would grow into adults, they would leave behind those books, movies, and TV shows that no longer appealed to them as adults. You don’t see anyone who grew up with Hanna-Barbara cartoons demanding that the cast of Scooby Doo be updated to portray Scooby and Shaggy as heroin addicts, Fred snapping the necks of their antagonists, or topless scenes of Velma and Daphne.

 

This demand a lot of modern-day fandom has for properties they enjoyed as kids to be updated as grim, gritty and violent is something I just do not understand. And hey, I love grim and gritty, I love violent movies and shows. My favorite directors include Quentin Tarantino and Takashi Miike and I think Breaking Bad is one of the greatest TV shows ever created.

 

But those things were created for adults and were meant to be enjoyed by adults. Power Rangers was created for kids. It’s bright, it’s colorful, it’s campy. It doesn’t need to be turned into nightmare fuel.

 

If Shankar wanted to create his own violent property that draws influences from Power Rangers, I’d have no problem with that. Because that’s his own original property and influences come from anywhere and everywhere. When Guillermo Del Toro wanted to do something that was inspired by Godzilla or Voltron, he didn’t just make a movie with those characters—he drew influences from those things to come up with Pacific Rim. But to just outright steal a kids’ property and twist it into something completely unrecognizable isn’t only a slap in the face to the rights of the owners of Power Rangers, it’s just flat-out crass.

 

If you enjoyed Power Rangers as a kid and now find it cheesy or campy or uninteresting, then guess what? That property is no longer for you. Leave Power Rangers for the next generation of kids and move on to find something that appeals to your adult sensibilities. There’s certainly plenty of adult-oriented sci-fi material out there to choose from. But don’t demand that Power Rangers grows up with you—that’s just selfish.

Lucian: Dark God’s Homecoming

Posted on by

51rgHLDBZOLLucian: Dark God’s Homecoming by Van Allen Plexico

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

I’m a huge fan of Van Allen Plexico’s Sentinels series. Normally I don’t go in for the more space opera-type stuff, so I was curious to see how this book would read. It’s a very enjoyable story with some great action set-pieces. I liked the interaction between Lucian and his human companion, Evelyn. However, I did feel the first-person style was a bit of a weakness from the book. Lucian is a very self-centered character, and while there’s nothing wrong with that, the perspective of the story felt like we got a bit too much of Lucian.

 

I understand this book is connected to Van’s other space opera books, which I am looking forward to reading. Although I didn’t enjoy Lucian as much as his superhero Sentinels series, it still gave me enough of a taste of this wider universe that I’m interested in discovering more.

In Defense of Remakes

Posted on by

l_141320_0407362_7abfc2e6Recently, I began watching the reboot of Battlestar Galactica. I had watched a few episodes several years ago, but didn’t quite get into it. Now I’ve tried it again and have gotten sucked in. I’ve been watching a few episodes every day and now I’m in the middle of the fourth and final season.

 

And as I watch this show, I can’t help but think about some other properties that have been in the news lately. There are two remakes/reboots in the works that involve properties very close to my heart, and which have drawn a lot of negative reactions from fans.

 

The first is Ghostbusters and the second is The Crow. Ghostbusters is one of the first movies I remember watching. Ghostbusters II was actually the first movie I remember seeing in the movie theater. Paul Feig is working on the next Ghostbusters film with an al-female cast of Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon. Don’t think I’ve seen Jones or McKinnon in anything, but I thought Bridesmaids was one of the funniest movies to come out in the past few years, so if Feig, McCarthy, and Wiig are involved, I’m definitely onboard.

 

The second is The Crow. This is a franchise that has not had a single iota of luck since the first film. Even with how great that movie was, it cost us the life of Brandon Lee, who probably would have gone on to bigger and better things had he survived. The sequel, The Crow: City of Angels, was butchered by Miramax in the editing room, resulting in a film that was cut to mirror the progression of the original. And the less said about Salvation and Wicked Prayer, the better. So when this upcoming Crow film is going to be a remake, it’s understandable why some people would be irritated. Except here’s the thing—it’s not really a remake. James O’Barr confirmed that this film is going back to his original graphic novel and doing a closer adaptation of that. As great as The Crow was, it was more an adaptation of tone than of content. As O’Barr himself said, “Brandon Lee will always be Eric Draven,” but this isn’t going to be a movie about Eric Draven (the surname was added to the movie, he was just Eric in the graphic novel).

 

And this brings me back to Battlestar Galactica. The conventional wisdom of fans is that “remakes are horrible and should never, ever be attempted.” I think that’s short-sighted as hell. Are there crappy remakes out there? Oh hell yes. But there are also a lot of wonderful remakes in the world. If the fan mentality that “we should never had remakes” was followed, here is a list of movies we never would have gotten:

 

The Fly
The Thing
The Magnificent Seven
A Fistful of Dollars
Scarface
The Departed
Dawn of the Dead
3:10 To Yuma
True Grit
Ocean’s Eleven
Cape Fear
13 Assassins
The Birdcage
Solaris
Black Caesar
Fatal Attraction
The Fog
Godzilla (2014)
The Mummy
True Lies

 

Technically, we could probably add Casino Royale to that list as well. After all, if fans are counting a new adaptation of The Crow as a remake, then technically Casino Royale qualifies as well—there were two adaptations of that book prior to Daniel Craig’s first Bond outing. One was a made-for-TV movie that reimagined MI6’s James Bond as the CIA’s Jimmy Bond, and there was a comedy spoof of it in the 60s featuring David Niven. We could also count Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy as a remake as well. And also Captain America: The First Avenger, given that there was a Captain America movie released in the early 90s.

 

Remakes are just like any other type of movie—there are good ones and there are bad ones. But making a blanket statement that all remakes are terrible is like making a blanket statement that all sci-fi movies are terrible. There are remakes that can be just as good as the original. And sometimes, they can even surpass the original. Again, look at Battlestar Galactica. The original show was awful—a cheesy Star Wars knock-off mixed with Mormon propaganda (and FYI, the story of Star Wars was heavily influenced by Akira Kurosawa’s The Hidden Fortress, so technically there’s another one). But the remake is really smart TV. Well-crafted stories, fully developed characters, and content that really makes you think about the issues being addressed in the show. And if we had listened to the people who damn all remakes on principle, we never would have gotten it.

 

Something to think about. Now I’m off to watch more BSG.

Nifty Entertainment

Posted on by

NIFTY2Some of you may have noticed a few changes around here lately. For one, you may have gone to the sales page for Vanguard #1 and been surprised to see that the publisher isn’t PulpWork Press like my work in the past, but rather Percival Constantine/Nifty Entertainment. If you’ve checked my other books, you may have seen that many of them also carry this new tag for the publisher. You may have also seen that the menu for this site now includes a link to Nifty Entertainment.

Mat Nastos, a great writer himself, is the man behind Nifty Entertainment and he proposed a partnership with us. This actually came at a good time for me as I’d been considering parting ways from PulpWork and doing my own thing. It’s not because of anything close to resembling a problem with Joel Jenkins, Derrick Ferguson, Russ Anderson, and Josh Reynolds (the other guys at PWP). I just felt I might have more freedom and maneuverability on my own. Also with my new production and release schedule for 2015, I didn’t want to overload them with all this stuff I’m doing.

What I’m doing with Nifty is more of a cooperative. Everything about my books remains in my control. More than that, Mat and I have very similar ideas about what we believe works and how we’d like to see our readership expand.

So that’s the reason for why Nifty Entertainment is now the name you’ll see under publisher for my books, with the exception of Pro Se, who still publish my Luther Cross series.

It may not seem like a huge development to most, but for me it is and I see a whole lot of potential in this move. I’m more excited about my writing career than probably ever before and a big part of it is because of this change.

Luther Cross 2 - The Ties That BindPRO SE PRODUCTIONS SINGLE SHOT SIGNATURE SERIES-
FOUR NEW STORIES TO KICK OFF 2015!

At the end of 2013, Pro Se Productions, an innovative publisher of Genre Fiction, debuted its Pro Se Single Shots line, stand alone digital only short story singles at an affordable price. Due to the success of the single self containted tales, Pro Se launched the Pro Se Single Shot Signature line in 2014. The Signature imprint still focuses on digital singles, but invited authors either write individual stand alone stories under a ‘From the Pen of…” title or a series of their own creation, either featuring connected stories or even ‘chapters’ or ‘episodes’ as well as still features single short stories or recurrent ‘chapters’ or ‘episodes’ written as short stories. The New Pulp Publisher debuts the next chapters in four of its inaugural Signature series today.

“The Pro Se Single Shot Signature line,” says Tommy Hancock, Pro Se Productions Partner and Editor in Chief, “is a project that, although it’s gotten off to a slow start, has in many ways altered how Pro Se sees publishing. We’ll continue with our traditional publishing of novels and anthologies, but the Signature imprint allows us to play with all sorts of possibilities of promotion, distribution, and accessing new readership on several levels. With schedules being sorted in the next week or two as well as multiple series and writer’s imprints debuing within the line over the next month or so, Pro Se is preparing to redefine Genre Fiction and New Pulp in 2015. And the four latest installments to the series that kicked off the Signatures are the best way to move forward.”

Making the Choice to Unpublish

Posted on by

chasingthedragonIf you’ve looked at my Amazon author page or checked out the books page on this site recently, you may have noticed that Chasing The Dragon is missing from my catalogue and is no longer available for purchase digitally (CreateSpace may take some more time to remove the print versions or you might find them from resellers). The reason is because I recently made the decision to pull it from distribution.

Chasing The Dragon has long been the black sheep of my catalogue. It’s a book a wrote a while ago and I always intended to do more with Riker Stone, but it never really materialized. I wrote part of the sequel to the first book, titled Die By The Sword, before I burned out on it. It was around that time that I moved on and started Love & Bullets.

Chasing The Dragon was a pretty experimental book for me. It’s far and away the darkest thing I’ve ever written. I also experimented with point of view, writing some chapters in the first-person perspective and others in the second-person.

I didn’t mind delving into that darkness, but the experimental prose was something I’ve never fully been comfortable with. I think that’s what caused me so much trouble with the second book. I also wasn’t really satisfied with the second half of Chasing The Dragon. I still think the story behind the first half was wonderful, if too much for some people. The cover is also something I’ve never quite gotten comfortable with. I wanted something grungy, but the more I look at it with everything I’ve learned since about cover design, the more I hate it.

Recently, I’ve had reason to re-evaluate my books and this has meant some reworking of covers and branding. In some cases, this meant complete retools of some covers. I’ve already produced these new covers for the Infernum books, Love & Bullets and Outlaw Blues:

Love & Bullets - 2015 Outlaw Blues - 2015

Covers for future Infernum books will also be done in this same style so that the series link is still obvious even without the Infernum logo. I’ve also got an artist working on new covers for The Myth Hunter books. I’m happy with the current covers for SoulQuest and Fallen, so those will stay as is.

But what to do about Chasing The Dragon? That was still the big question in my mind and ultimately, I decided it was best to just retire the book for the time being. For about a year or more, I’ve been thinking about revisiting Chasing The Dragon and retooling it and now I have the opportunity to do exactly that.

I won’t do it right away, though. Right now I’m about two thirds of the way into the third Myth Hunter book, then I’m going to do the third Infernum book. Both are long overdue. I’ve also got the Vanguard serial and the Luther Cross series for Pro Se.

I will revisit Chasing The Dragon at some point and bring back Riker Stone in a way that the character deserves. But it’ll be a little later down the line.

Looking Back and Forward

Posted on by

amazingadventures3dSo the year has come to an end. I only put out one new release in 2014, and that was the first Luther Cross story for Pro Se’s Single Shot Signatures line. But despite that, it was a pretty productive year. I completed the entire first season of Vanguard, which clocks in at just shy of 100,000 words. I also wrote the first two Luther Cross stories, so another 20,000 words there and I penned a story for one of Airship 27’s upcoming Sinbad anthologies, another 15,000 words. So in total, I wrote about 135,000 words, making it my most productive year by far in terms of writing.

I also spent a lot of time doing research. Taking a hard look at what works and what doesn’t in self-publishing and seeing how I can apply things to my own business. I branded the books in The Myth Hunter and Infernum series with logos for each series and new covers. The Myth Hunter books will also be getting another round of new covers shortly to prepare for the release of the third book in the series (more on that in the coming months). I also went back to my first book, Fallen, and finally went ahead and put together an ebook, brand-new print version, and a new cover.

All this plus I toyed with marketing attempts on different books, trying to boost some rankings and I’ve been trying to build my platform through my article writing at WhatCulture and my podcasts. I also finally created a mailing list, something I should have done long ago.

Basically, everything I’ve done in 2014 has been building to a big 2015. The reason I chose not to release any of the Vanguard episodes until 2015 is because I wanted to have them all completed in advance. And now, the first episode is available for pre-order!

Nothing Found

The special prequel episode to the series is also available, but only to mailing list subscribers. If you’ve subscribed to my mailing list, you should have received a link to download it by now. If you’re not on the list and would like the prequel episode, then subscribe now!

I’ve also teamed up with Derrick Ferguson, Mark Bousquet and Joel Jenkins to compile Amazing Adventures: 4-Book Action-Packed Box Set. This set features Derrick’s Dillon and the Last Rail to Khusra, The Lost Continent by me, Mark’s Gunfighter Gothic: Under Zeppelin Skies, and Joel’s On Wings of Darkness. These books would normally cost $2.99 individually, but you can get all four for only 99¢. The set is now available and I’d advise you to pick it up while you can, because it won’t be on the market forever.

Nothing Found

2015 promises to be a big year. Each month will see the release of another episode of Vanguard and then I’m planning for a June release of Curse of the Necronomicon, the third book in The Myth Hunter series. Luther Cross will also see new releases quarterly and I’ve got plans for the second half of the year that I’m going to finalize once I finish Curse of the Necronomicon.

There are some other things in the works that I can’t quite talk about yet. But 2015 promises to be a very big year.
