Oh man the best part about Ecuador so far has definitely been re filming scene by scene in our hotel room the movie Dragon Fighter previously starring Dean Cain.
The scenes in the bedrooms we film with different angles of our beds; the scenes in the bomb-shelter-turned-cloning-lab we film in our very own hallway complete with the mean old lady that stares at us next door; lastly the helicopter is two chairs in our closet.
For the role of Dean Cain aka Sgt. David Carver, we have cast Alex Hodge, because they are so damn similar (¨I guess you could say my parents are real-life rocket scientists!¨).
the remaining roles have been cast as follows:
Dr. Melissa Winters: Megan fisher
Computer Expert Bailey (latina): Sarah Kanter
Security officer Sergei Romanivitch: rachel liebman
Dr. Ian Drakonivitch: Austin-Brendan-Rohit
Animal Expert Greg: nick fascitelli
Drunkard computer expert kevin: nick fascitelli
falsely deaf anti-affimative action mouthpiece chef ¨cookie¨: coffin
the dragon: ¨grandma ollie¨ doll
here are the key scenes we have filmed so far:
--dean cain ¨found¨ by dr. melissa winters leafing through a textbook with ¨advanced biology¨ in bold on the cover
--7 scenes in which dean cain refers to it as ¨mr. dragon¨ (goodbye mr dragon, etc)
--the scene in which sarah kanter as computer expert bailey fatally chooses not to escape but to fire with a handgun at the dragon which has survived many many shotgun blasts while quipping in true latina fashion ¨say hello to my little friend¨--bang bang bang etc.
--The death of evil, cruelly logical (¨sacrifices must be made¨) Dr. Drakonovitch--without warning, he opens the door of the escaping helicopter in the final scenes to take a picture with a cheap digital camera of the cloned dragon HE created, and falls out
--dr. melissa winters dramatic ¨we must save the animals!¨ scene, in which a mouse mother and babies, a puppy, a turtle, a bunny, lizards, and more, fit safely into the noahs ark of her notebook sized backpack, as they escape with less than 15 minutes until the nuclear reactor explodes with the force of ¨53% of hiroshima¨
--kevin´s tragic ¨lets drink like gentlemen¨ scene, in which kevin, having learned 10 minutes ago that the dragon is attracted to cool and loud noises, decides to try and get dean cain to party with loud music and the luxury of supercool air conditioning. dean cain escapes with the laptop needed to further the plot. a short time later kevin hears a noise at his door which is of course not a dragon. ¨dean cain is that you!?! are you trying to bother me!? are you trying to bother me!? Ill show YOU!! *opens door* wahhhhh!¨
--the scene in which writer/director/producer phillip roth (NOT the author) brings on two quickly killed henchmen: roth and phillip. (correction: this is actually roth and CAPILLA)
--the prologue back in 1100´s: the aftermath of a dragon attack. dying mother: ¨mi...babi...(dies)¨
production is 53% atm Ill keep you posted
