BotCon 2012 Fan Filmfest

Just... awesome. I like the scene where Soundwave and Bumblebee are just hugging it out. The second was just downright comical! Great job as usual, Jon!

That was pretty great, haha.

Ha ha HAAAAAHHH! Very funny stuff, Mr. Creative VOice Actor Guy.

I like 'em!
But where's the #1 video?

I'm going to see if I can find it anywhere. I actually have met the guy who did it, his name is Ben (Hollywood Hoist on TFW) and he's a real nice guy. He's been in the contest for years and has finished second and third before. The video was called "Starting them young" and in it he shows his 2 1/2 year old son things about Transformers.

Very close call this year, but in my book a deserving winner.

Btw, here's a picture of Ben from one of our hotel room parties a few years ago. He's the guy standing in the middle of the picture.

Yeah, I've emailed him but he hasn't told me when his video is going up yet. I'll check.

I try to make my brand of Transformers humor broad enough so that even non-TF fans can still enjoy it. Glad you enjoyed it.

Here's the BotCon 2012 Fan Filmfest first place winner "Starting Them Young" by Ben Harpold. Own our podcaster jON3.0 took second and third place with his entries "Green Energy" and "The Best Transformers Botcon 2012 Fan Film Thingy EVER MADE".

AWESOME! Thank you for that! Now... ONLY if we can get Ben aka Hollywood Hoist to post the 2010 video. I believe it won 3rd place that year and it was classic!

I asked him about that too so I'm hoping he'll upload that as well.

You have GOT to be fucking kidding me, that crappy imovie family home video is the winner of the Botcon filmfest? Seriously, no one should even bother entering.

People and their kids... keep it to yourself! The other videos showed seriously TALENT and VISION. I call for a ban on the filmfest next year. No wonder I don't waste my time at botcon in that room.
