A decision has been made and the new design has been sent to the printer. Thank you all very much for your comments. They have been very helpful. The new cover will be made public as soon as the DVD is ready to be shipped.

The DVD factory has received the master files. Hopefully they will be able to replicate the disk soon.

All I can say is that GB fans know how to have fun. We had two screenings of Wrath of Gods at the GB Fan Convention in Washington, DC. The convention actually took place across the river from the capital, at a hotel in Old Town Alexandria. Both screenings were packed and we hada great Q&A after both screenings. It was great to meet all those people who had been among the first to buy the DVD and still, there was a long line of people when they arranged for the signing session. These people know how to have fun.

Wrath of Gods had a great screening at the CUT! 2008 festival in Hollywood on March 29. In attendance were actors Tony Curran, Martin Delaney and director Jon Gustafsson.

Wrath of Gods will be screened at the 14th annual Bradford International Film Festival in Bradford, UK on March 5th, 2008. For more information see the Bradford International Film Festival.

Perth Revelation Film Festival (Australia) has published this write-up:

“Is there some kind of competition to see which filmmaker can have the worst time making a movie? Think Terry Gilliam in Lost In La Mancha, Mark Borchardt from American Movie and the Sydney boys struggling to finish their film in Making Venus (Rev 2002).

If Rev doco Wrath Of Gods is anything to go by, the competition has been won by Icelandic director Sturla Gunnarsson. Gunnarsson, his crew and cast – including 300 star Gerard Butler – were cursed by trolls, blown off the side of a mountain and endured hellish storms making epic Beowulf & Grendel. It’s grim for them but fun for us. Wrath Of Gods is a gripping documentary about the madness of movie making.”

WorldFest in Huston received 4.500 entries. They decided to give Wrath Of Gods a Bronze Remi Award. Thank you.
