Big Boy Adventure from Joseph Mikos on Vimeo.
I know I slacked big time when it came to getting this edit together and up online. Anyway, we definitely didn’t shoot enough of this adventure… but I did what I could with the footage we did get.
John (Sallie D from Two Guys and John Cutterwood from Real American TV), Will (the one with the drinking compilation in Pull The Alarm, and I embarked on a road trip to the nearest Big Boy Restuarant last weekend, which is located in Cleveland, Ohio. I came up with the idea after the success of the Sonic Adventure and thought it was a must to continue with a sequel to the next awesome restuarant not found anywhere in New York, Big Boy. We talked about it for a few minutes and it was settled. Turned out to be a fucking awesome trip minus the several colds circulating amongst the three of us. Awesome bars, awesome atmosphere, awesome group, awesome Browns game, more awesome bars (one of which had a mechanical bull), some fine midwestern bells, and, of course, awesome food at Big Boy.
Despite the 3 days and nights we had to film, we actually got less footage than the Sonic Adventure which was all shot in 3 hours.
There will be a short edit of what we did film online soon.
In the meantime, click on the image to check out the photos from the trip.

Cool video from NYC, and real American.

Everything about this reeks of Real Americanism.

A new HD edit I put together… look at it as a 2008 promo video.
This the majority of this footage was shot in 2003. The edit was released 2006. A respected legend of the neighborhood.

Here we see another side to Safety… the high school choir in 2004.

Safety is truly an All-American.
The Fourth from Michael Brodner (AIM: Upstate14) on Vimeo.
I came across this on vimeo and thought it was amazing. Distracted NYC prides itself on Real Americanism, and this is a great way to show it. I believe the filmmaker is from Rochester, NY, so I guess you can add this to the NYC Randoms (assuming this was shot in New York somewhere).
Drew filled me in earlier today that he is signing up for the Army, or already has signed up for the Army. I guess he certainly has the haircut of a soldier. We wish him the best of luck with it.
The Star Struck movie (minus one chapter) has been up on the website for like 2 weeks now. The link is up at the top of the page right next to the Real American TV link…. or you can just click on the image above and it’ll take you to the page. Go peep it now!
Joe Mikos: B-ball Champ from Joseph Mikos on Vimeo.
I took Barreto on in a 1-on-1 b-ball battle on the first day of the Midwest Road Trip. Needless to say, I destroyed him in a best of 3 series on the rainy, wet pavement of Nicholas Danchuk’s driveway court. This could possibly be one of the few events that led to Barreto’s recent resignation.
Star Struck: A True Story. Documenting the lives and lifestyles of 2 beer pong legends.
This is a film a buddy and I are making… due out sometime in May. Trailer coming real soon!
