MECH-Execute! With the cast and creators of MECH-X4 – #MechX4Event

At the MECH-X4 Event

While I was in California, for an all expense paid trip by Walt Disney Studios to do a press tour for several Disney projects, I had the opportunity to meet with the creators and cast of the new Disney XD series, Mech-X4. We were able to see the pilot episode of the show which debuts on Disney Channel on Premieres Saturday, November 12 at 8/7c on Disney XD. I really liked the show. It was smart and funny with pretty decent special effects for a kid’s show. What is different about this one is that it is a serialized show with some distinct story arcs, mysteries and more. The show is also self aware in that when Ryan yells, “MECH – EXECUTE!” Harris then says, “We’re doing catch phrases now?” I love it when shows do that. It doesn’t hurt that the cast gets along so well and has excellent chemistry as we saw in the interviews. I enjoyed when we did the meet and great and photos with the cast, they were really personable guys and funny, extremely funny. Kamran Lucas who plays Harris has the best lines in the show and he had some great answers to the questions asked in the interview.

Before we interviewed the cast we interviewed the creators of the show, Executive producers Steve Marmel & Anupam Nigam. These guys were the real deal as far as geeks who were able to weave some nostalgia into a new and exciting show. I could have talked with them all day. These guys liked what I liked and took that and made it into a show that I would have loved to have been watching at 7 or 8 years old. I will be watching it with Andrew and Eva. Below is my interviews with the cast Nathaniel James Potvin (“Ryan Walker”), Raymond Cham (“Mark Walker”), Kamran Lucas (“Harris”), Pearce Joza (“Spyder”) and Executive producers Steve Marmel & Anupam Nigam.

DOCTOR Strange Event

I teased this in a couple of vlogs recently but on October 17 I am heading back to California for a few days to rub shoulders with 24 other bloggers, a sorcerer supreme, a forgetful fish, a bachelor and his bride-to-be and a giant robot. I am more than thrilled to be part of the upcoming #DoctorStrangeEvent, #FindingDoryBluray, #BenAndLaurenEvent and #MechX4Event. That is many events in one few day period. This trip is an all expenses paid press trip. I receive no monetary compensation but may receive promotional materials. My opinions are my own, as always.

My days will be jam packed with so many once in a lifetime experiences. Here’s what I’m going to be doing, as far as I know right now. More activities may be added as we get closer to the event.

Back about a year ago my friend Andrew Kardon of Mommy’s Busy, Go Ask Daddy and I decided that we were going to do a ton of promotion for Captain America, Civil War by having our own Blogger Civil War. He would be Captain America and I would be Iron Man. We went back and forth over the course of that year with our main intention to be asked to the Captain America Civil War Event. Turns out that even if we had been asked, neither of us could have gone. I’m not saying that our little project was the reason that we were asked to be on this trip, but our passion was undeniable. I am so excited to be attending this alongside my friend.

Viewing the film DOCTOR STRANGE

Opens November 4, 2016

The Impossibilities Are Endless

DOCTOR STRANGE

Yes, I will be screening Marvel’s DOCTOR STRANGE which opens in theatres on November 4, 2016. I will also be able to attend the press junket where you I will interview some of the talent from the film! I certainly hope to interview Benedict Cumberbatch, but I am really hoping to get to interview Benedict Wong. I have said that many times in my past posts. Benedict Wong will play the part of Wong in the film. Benedict Wong also plays Kublia Khan in the Netflix series Marco Polo. The series fascinates me and Wong’s portrayal of the Mongol leader is exceptional. Needless to say I’m crossing my fingers.

I imagine that maybe you aren’t as up on your DOCTOR STRANGE knowledge as I am so here’s the trailer and after that a small synopsis of the film.

From Marvel Studios comes “Doctor Strange,” the story of world-famous neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange whose life changes forever after a horrific car accident robs him of the use of his hands. When traditional medicine fails him, he is forced to look for healing, and hope, in an unlikely place—a mysterious enclave known as Kamar-Taj. He quickly learns that this is not just a center for healing but also the front line of a battle against unseen dark forces bent on destroying our reality. Before long Strange—armed with newly acquired magical powers—is forced to choose whether to return to his life of fortune and status or leave it all behind to defend the world as the most powerful sorcerer in existence.

“Doctor Strange” stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, Benedict Wong, Michael Stuhlbarg, Benjamin Bratt and Scott Adkins, with Mads Mikkelsen and Tilda Swinton. Scott Derrickson is directing with Kevin Feige producing. Louis D’Esposito, Stephen Broussard, Victoria Alonso, Charles Newirth and Stan Lee serve as executive producers. Jon Spaihts and Scott Derrickson & C. Robert Cargill wrote the screenplay. Join Strange on his dangerous, mystifying and totally mind-bending journey when Marvel Studios’ “Doctor Strange” opens in U.S. theaters on November 4, 2016.
