FINALLY!!! Thanks so much lonegazer! I've been so wondering where in the world Tenure went!! It was filmed very close to me, so I was wanting to pick out all the places I knew!! Well, now I can try to find it on DVD perhaps. Thank you, thank you, thank you for filling us in!! I was trying to be so patient. This is when I met Luke!

I remember your photo with Luke, oh lots of green eyed envy from me!
Whichever way Tenure is released, at least we're getting closer to that date. Middle Men might be out before then as there was a screening of it last night and this week too with positive comments from people who saw it last night.

A screening? Realy? Now is this the film that Luke filmed in Arizona? Sometimes the new gal he met in Philly (not me unfortunately) would come and visit!

At last! I've been waiting for the dvd release since it was mentioned in an article that Tenure might be out in September in some form. If anyone sees it before then, perhaps they can review it for us.

Plot sounds interesting and plausible. We already know we like the casting choice for Professor Thurber, hee hee. I can totally see Luke as a professor. Interesting such a name as Thurber was chosen for the character. ;D

I think I'd've flunked my degree if any of my profs had looked like any of the Wilsons No way I would have been able to keep my mind on my grammar books with a Wilson-a-like at the front of the lecture hall, I'd've been too busy going

I have emailed Gary Lundgren a couple of times regarding the movie Calvin Marshall, which Andrew is in. Mr Lundgren has been very kind to answer back both times that I have emailed him, which is very impressive as I am sure he is very busy. In his last reply back to me, he mentioned that Luke was going to have a movie showing at the Austin film festival. aff.bside.com/2009/films/tenure_aff2009 Woo, whoo, Tenure will be there. I imagine that Luke will be there. I know that Andrew is scheduled to be present during the film festival for Calvin Marshall, so maybe there is an opportunity for a double Wilson sighting for those of you Texas peeps or anyone else willing to travel.
