Read Sal Salazar’s review of “Role Models!”

A few weeks ago several of us saw the new comedy “Role Models” at an advance screening. Dale Nauertz, who played Sal Salazar in Possumus Woman, wrote a review on his site and it was even linked-to by the film’s director. It is pretty entertaining, like a 1990’s SNL offshoot movie movie but smarter and rated R.

So if you’re considering going to see it, why not check out what Dale had to say?

You can also now download the two original songs from Possumus Woman using these links:

We also discuss how action movies have changed over the decades based off administrations and the possible reasons, the Republican link to great action movies, plus a retrospective on our making of Possumus Man. Enjoy!

Workaround for sticky Access Controller buttons

It has come to my attention that a few users have had difficulty with sticking buttons on the Access Controller, or buttons that are hard to press. This will be address in future runs/shipments of the product.

In the meantime I have come up with a workaround that can greatly improve the “pushability” of the buttons and requires only an screwdriver and X-Acto knife. Click below for instructions.

Thanks to everyone who’s bought on thus far, and be sure to spread the word!
