'2 Live Fools' Stakes Claim on April Fool's Day: Hollywood Insiders Launch Online Entertainment and Technology Hub on Two Year Anniversary To accompany one of the most inspired and original podcasts on the web, filmmakers and technologists David C. Fein and Marc Fusco have finally buckled to the many months of fan requests, launching a revved-up weblog and editorial meeting ground at www.2livefools.com. Los Angeles, CA (PRWeb) April 1, 2007 -- To accompany one of the most inspired and original podcasts on the web, filmmakers and technologists David C. Fein and Marc Fusco have finally buckled to the many months of fan requests, launching a revved-up weblog and editorial meeting ground at www.2livefools.com. Debunking the hype around movies, technology, home video and entertainment news, the 2 Live Fools speak out in their hour-long program and now daily blog, laying the harsh "truth" down on the table as real working industry insiders. They are self-proclaimed fools with a cheerful push against the status quo. Their mission statement: 'Don't be a lemming! Be a Fool!'
"While you are bombarded by studios trying to sell you the moon and the stars," says Fusco, "we are on the other side trying to keep you safe; like your own private entertainment watchdog. Enjoy watching the game, not being played by it."
Deemed by iTunes listeners as 'The Click and Clack of Entertainment and Technology,' it's hard to deny the Fools' infectious style while bringing to the forefront insider fodder on topics such as the Apple iPhone & iPods, simultaneous theatrical/DVD day-on-date film releases, the lowdown on HiDef video and how it's changing the industry, Blu-ray vs. HD DVD, and how corporate Hollywood manipulates consumers and theatergoers. Also in review are the newest DVD releases, about which Fein has clear opinions having been one of the few pioneers in the DVD industry.
Infusing their creative backgrounds with their technological savvy, the two Fools dish their listeners and readers a unique point of view. "The bottom line is we're here to entertain, while at the same time walk that line between humor and keeping it real." says Fein, "We inform our listeners with reality in our own foolish way."
As far as scoop goes, 2 Live Fools listeners seems to get it a day or two ahead of anywhere else on the web. What's the scoop you ask? It's the Fools' behind-the-scenes info on the all-age toys like XBox 360, the PS3, the new Vista OS, and the ever-evolving iPod itself--underpinning Apple's true desire to take over the world. And sometimes, the scoop is prognostication. Yes, when it comes to this stuff, the Fools have even been known to accurately predict the future on occasion.
Known in Tinseltown as the filmmaker's consultant, Fein's long list of award-winning projects includes producing legendary filmmaker Robert Wise's "Director's Edition" restoration and recut of "Star Trek: The Motion Picture", and his groundbreaking documentaries on Ridley Scott's "Alien" and James Cameron's "Aliens: Special Edition."
As an independent writer/director/producer Fusco co-wrote and directed the cult indie feature "Stealing Time" and was Steven Spielberg's assistant on several films including "Saving Private Ryan," "Amistad" and "The Lost World: Jurassic Park."
As they continue to make movies, the Fools certainly prove to be filmmakers to watch with several projects brewing in the pipeline.
When asked why their moniker is so 'foolish,' Fein sarcastically quips "Behind your back the hype machine thinks it's fooling you, so why not embrace it and come out as a fool who knows better! Be cool. Be an 'informed' fool!"
This cool-to-be-a-fool, open mind - open mic - open blog attitude stands out amongst the vanilla flood of blogs and podcasts on the web where anyone can rant or record themselves sans an agenda or more importantly--without a point.
Since it's hip to buck the status quo and actually know what's going on, be a fool and check out the 2 Live Fools blog and podcasts, downloadable for free at http://www.2livefools.com or on Apple's iTunes.
