Probably the longest-running prank character at the old forum was Sergio, an immigrant filmmaker. The character was controversial among those at the boards who disliked anything funny, as usual, but grew to be a part of the family. Sergio was actually Mike Stoklasa, who later wrote a (quite good) screenplay starring the character and started to produce it as an animated film.The project was too ambitious, and Mike was unable to complete it.

But behold, the original posts ... the magic of Sergio.

Sergio Love American Woman Posted 10-9-2000 05:01



Sometimes Sergio think: Why I make movies? Is it because I like to tell story? Is it because I want to make money? Because I get feeling of accomplishment? no no, It is because Sergio want to sleep with sleazy actresses.
Father tell me, "Sergio, women will never love you for who you are, this is why you need to become great American director. Then babes like Alyissa Malano and Sally Field will want to sleep with you for good part in movie" I tell my father I want to meet nice girl and have her love Sergio for Sergio, But my father hit me and tell me to make him chicken pot pie. He call me dumb ass.
Sergio always want to make father proud, so current movie is called "American Bikini Bimbo Bash" Location will be on beach in sunny California and woman will be required to sleep with Sergio for part, even secretary part with one line. I have casting session and no one show up! Sergio put out flyers at local supermarket and church. But Sergio determined. I go to beach and film women anyway I point camera at them and say "I make movie, you want to be in it?" some woman laugh and say yes. They embaressed, but can not resist Sergios charm. I tell them they need to come to Sergio's house tonight and "get the busy on" in order to be in film. They yell at me and life guard hit me with boogie board. After father bail Sergio out, he beat me till my skin fell off. Why Sergio have problems with American culture? Sergio miss old country.

-Sergio.

Sergio Film Festival! Come join! Posted 10-16-2000 00:28



Hallo friends it's Sergio! Just wanted to post to internet friends that Sergio is starting own film festival called "Sergio Slam 2000" It will be held in my house. My father watch your film and be judge. If he don't like he say "get out!" if he like, well then he say "eh that was okay, Sergio your friend okay in my book...he can stay" Mother make mozzaballs and garlic bread while we watch films on couch. If Uncle Vincenzo show up drunk just ignore him, he likes to talk bad about black people at job, please don't pay any attention, Sergio turn up volume on TV when he show up. Prizes for film slam will be sergio's old dresser and possibly a gift certificate for Shakey's, this is all Sergio have, but Film festival is what Sergio love! Sergio love film and want others to share in this joy! Unless film features nudity, vulgar language, violence, any sexual references. My mother have pacemaker and is very religious. If film makes father mad he may hit you. But still join up for film festival. Mother bought 25 pounds of meat for occasion and father will beat me if it goes to waste. Details about film fest are on my webstage: www.Sergioslam200.com

meat huh? Posted 10-16-2000 05:23



Do you know what kind of meat your mother bought? I think I would be rather interested in the consumption of dead animals and such. The movies that we make might get a little vulgar, but if your father tries anything I'll have his legs broken and his tongue removed. Hope to see you and all these other amateur film junkies there!

Give us an address to send tapes to, along with a phone number. You can send it to me via e-mail. Then I can check to see if the address is legit and call you for more information about your film festival. We at GMP would love to have our films in your festival. I think your father would like our films.

tygerbug [guest] from REwind Online
lalala Posted 10-17-2000 08:35



I wasn't trying to "reveal" that Sergio isn't a real person ... just that he doesn't usually reply to our discussions of this posts, so it's not really worth even trying to say, well, use my movie at your "fest" because in the past he's never listened to that sort of thing ... A Sergio commentary on oranges: the movie, with its undercurrent of adult love, would be bueno, but ... so basically I'm just saying that if "Sergio" had balls he would post a real website address for a Sergio slam ... that would be amusing. He wouldn't even have to put up an email address. I for one would like to hear more of his adult love "porno" films where man wear wig. But he no go into that sort of detail. Apparently years of his father hit him have left Sergio unable to carry on a conversation.

So let's just say the web address doesn't work and leave it at that ... unless Sergio have other idea.

How Sergio Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Rock Posted 11-3-2000 08:49



Hallo Friends it's Sergio! I just wanted to say I love the american rock! I went to show tonight called Limp Bisquick and I must say It entertained me. Man at gate took video camera I brought and smashed it, but that's okay it was falling apart. I see band and they loud and yelling. I also see opening act called Screamhead, they suck, people push me around and hit me! I say CALL POLICE!!, but hans tell me it's called american moshing, I say it crazy! When I get home I tell my father about rocking concert and most importantly about the moshing pit. I say father, Americans have pastime where you go to concert to hear music and hit people at the same time. I tell him that he should go see concert so that he would no longer have to hit mother and me. Father laugh, he think funny. Later on Sergio keep door open knowing well that father would kick it in and beat me for my earlier comments, but he did not. Father asleep in bed with mother. Sergio say to himself, father not beat me? This is strange I thank Limp Bisquick for their music it has brought me peace in my home. Someday I make movie about my experience called Sergio Love America! Land of Opportunity.....and Rock!

Sergio [guest] from REwind Online
Whya you nota like the Sergio? Posted 11-29-2000 05:31



Sergio not like amature movies no more! Sergio ask for help and you shun! Sergio come to America after seeing great film makers like Steven Spielberg and Dennis the Mennis want to make film! Sergio's dream has been to make great american film like Citizen Kane or Showgirls and what happen? Sergio get laughed at! Sergio get beat up by black guy in subway, Sergio get bottle shoved in asshole at rave! Why this happen to Sergio! Now Sergio ask for help after eating bad eggs and Sergio no see post! Where did post go? When Sergio was 12 father give him advise he said, "Sergio my son, the world is what you make it.....now make me a chicken pot pie or I'll beat the living hell out of you" I have always interprited the wise words of my father to mean that the world is a cruel and competitve place and unless you go out and make a chicken pot pie it will beat you. Since then Sergio have always strided to become what was destined to be - a film maker, even though road may be a tough one. But Film maker need help! and no one help Sergio! Sergio have no training, no actors, but do have big video camera from 1980 and a blank tape of dreams. Sergio will show you all! Sergio will make the next Barenaked Witch Project and show you all who the best film maker is! Father will be proud of Sergio!

censorship issues Posted 11-29-2000 13:26

Get rid of him! Posted 11-29-2000 19:54



Sergio is a fucking douche-bag who SHOULD be banned from this message board. I don't know who is behind this Sergio character but there is nothing funny about him. His jokes are immature, childish and uncalled for. This all started at the AMDB and it should be stopped right here, right now. Plus, he is making a mockery of the amateur film world and honestly I don't appreciate it. And really, there is nothing funny about child abuse.... but in this case I hope this Sergio character gets the fucking hell beaten out of him by more then just his father. Actually, I think my next film will be "THE SEVERE BEATING OF SERGIO!" I'm sure it will be a big hit!

Peace love and happiness and death to Sergio... Jon get rid of him!

Sergio Make Bad Post Posted 11-29-2000 14:13



I've had mixed feelings on this Sergio character. While I don't find his 'comedy' amusing at all, I don't really care enough to censor the guy. I figure if you don't like Sergio, don't read the post. But a day or so ago he stepped over the line with his 'egg' story into very poor taste without reason. It's a free world and a free board, but I'm still it's moderator. I have no problems with most of Sergio's stupid stories, but please keep in mind that a wide age range frequent this board even if they don't post. This board was created for a reason, and that's to supplement REwind and draw regular traffic - if Sergio's posts negatively affect either of those, then I'll deal with it.

Generally, if you find Sergio's posts offensive, just skip them. A lack of response tends to eliminate issues like that quickly.

Jon

PS - This was the first post I've ever deleted from this board. I hope it will be the last Sergio.

Do you guys have any pride in what you make? Posted 11-29-2000 19:55



You know... I've noticed a lot of interesting things in the past couple of months or so and I come to the conclusion that most of you guys don't even take any pride in what you produce. You know what, it DOES offend me when someone starts screwing around with our "hobby" because let me tell you that if this was any other site and some loser like Sergio started spewing at the mouth with all of his ridiculous and useless posts then he would have been tossed ages ago. I love what I do and I love making movies. I just don't understand why some of you don't defend your work and your hobby. I'm sure if someone started bad mouthing or making fun of lets say your favorite sports team, and don't get me started on the Leafs, then I'm sure you would have a different take on the situation. What I'm saying is that some of you consider what you do to be crap and the worst things anyone has ever seen. I know it's fun making movies and all but if you don't have pride in your work then why the hell do you do bother. And why do you get upset when someone writes a bad review for your "crap" movie when it really is crap because you said it was.

It's confusing... but hey... if you guys like Sergio and his stupidity so be it. Enjoy!

Long Live Sergio! Posted 11-29-2000 20:50



Having a sense of humor about Sergio and his stupid posts has no relevance towards how seriously any of us take filmmaking. How exactly does Sergio taint the image of amateur filmmaking? By not having a sense of humor, does that mean that someone takes what they do more seriously than those of us that are able to laugh at Sergio and his wacky antics? I don't think so. I make stupid comedies, but that doesn't mean I don't take them seriously. I do what I do because I love it. I also find Sergio funny. God, I'm so juvenile, aren't I?

Insignificant Posted 11-29-2000 22:05



Jay,

You said that I shouldn't get upset over something like Sergio making a "mockery of the amateur film world because it is insignificant." Now, I might have misinterpreted what you said and I just want to make sure I'm clear. Are you saying that amateur film is insignificant or whether Sergio is insignificant? If it's the latter then I agree. I'm just extremely passionate about my film work and having moron's like Sergio come around and talk about something that has nothing to do with REwind, or amateur film, well that's when I get offended. It's junk mail for all I'm concerned and for some people junk mail bothers them. Now, I probably was going a little over board about Sergio making a mockery of the amateur film world when in reality we should just ignore the bastard and go on with our lives. Now, if you find him funny I've got nothing against that I just don't think Sergio's posts belong here at REwind. We've got better things to read and talk about.

As for your work Jay, I wasn't signaling you out personally. It's just an observation and it boggles the mind that some people consider everything they do to be crap. Sure, I've made some horrible films but I've taken those films and used them to improve my work where as some people continue to produce and proclaim there work to be crap. But, again, why should I care about what other people are doing. If you like producing crap go right ahead. Enjoy!

And as for immature... hell, I'm immature... I'm as immature as they come but there is a time and a place for that kind of nonsense... sometimes REwind is the place... but Sergio is just a waste of time which is what I'm doing by writing this post. Anyway, that's it from the TEWS factory.

Erik

tygerbug [guest] from REwind Online
... Posted 11-30-2000 03:00



I've also referred to a certain series of mine as "crap" in the past, but was doing so half in jest -- I, like everyone else on the board, love everything I've done to death. Sure, when GMP Mike's around I'll see us do a Monkey Man Gets His joke or two, but I'm sure that Mike loves that one as much as any of his others ... what can be interpreted as a temporary lack of pride is just backing away when someone didn't like what we did so as not to push it on them ... nothing worse than endless praising discussion of a bad movie. Sergio is a colorful character, and some of us tolerate him, some even enjoy him, but some here don't like what he did and is doing, and just want him to back away. I doubt that Sergio's posts are an attack on anyone, or on amateur films in general. Sergio can make his own decision here, and those who dislike Sergio will continue to ignore his posts.

But never say there isn't any pride at REwind. Some of us occasionally get so filled with joy at the whole amateur community that we wind up writing 4-page posts. Or, um, yeah.

John [guest] from REwind Online
As one of the aforementioned readers Posted 11-30-2000 21:17



First off I have to say that I do not make amateur mvoies, I am not even really involved in the entire subculture of amatuer filmmakers, but what I do know is that Sergio generates a lot of heat for someone who "isn't real" and who is "discrediting" the entire amatuer filming community. Personally it is my opinion that if you don't like something then you ignore it, I don't know about other people but I don't believe that there should be someone out there who is limiting what I do and do not have access to.

I have to admit I am a sucker for idiot comedy, which is what I would have to define Sergio's posts as. I would have to deifne them as idiot comedy, and since Jim Carrey, and Adam Sandler makes millions of dollars ( As well as Tom Green, and the fellas from Jackass on MTV ) doing the exact same thing, except on a larger scale, I think that the fella from TEWS (sp?) should lighten up and keep more of an open mind about the literary material of this page. It is one thing to be hotly opinionated about something, it is quite another to try and force those opinons on others, or to heatedly state that your opinion is right and other peoples are wrong.

Is there honestly anything inherently WRONG with enjoying the simple idiotic wit of Sergio? I don't think so, and in his own way, I think Sergio would agree with me.

So I say LET THE BEATINGS CONTINUE!, and I can't wait to order my copy of "Look Out Ghost!"

Since there's a new John, and too many Mikes around, I'm changing my name to "Slappy." No personal reasons, except I get tired of thinking people are talking about ME when they've got microphone problems. The proper short-form of microphone is "mic", people, not "mike." So please note the name change. It's not Mike "Slappy" Branum, but I will accept "The Artist Currently Known As Slappy". But no calling me Mike anymore. I mean, the other Mike could call himself "mp3. Mike" or "Composer Mike", but I do those things, too, dang it!!! So, under duress, I will change MY name.

Hallo "friends" it's Sergio! I want to say that Sergio write from L.A., land of movies! Sergio come to California for Gold Rush, but man at tourist center tell Sergio he is over 100 years too late. I think father play cruel joke on Sergio! Sergio just bring shovel and no money, so off to magic Sergio go! Sergio see many sites of Hollywood. Prostitutes, homeless veterans, sexual miscreants, drug users, and Carrot Top. Sergio see sign. "Film Festival!" and dream come true! Festival have American Movies! Free admission! So Sergio go in and get seat. Film that play is something called "We shall not forget". Sergio ask person sitting in next seat what film about. They say, "It's about the nazis in world war two and how they...." Sergio stop him, that's all Sergio need to hear! If Sergio know anything about Nazis' and American films it's that it will be all action and adventure! Film start. Sad violin music play during credits, Sergio bored. Sergio want excitement! Sergio yell," Where is American Action Star Indiana Jones!" people say "sssh" Sergio wait and nothing exciting happen. Sergio yell out loud again "Sergio want to see John Wayne shoot nazi!" people say ssssh even louder. So Sergio go to lobby where food is at. mmmm Food from Sergio's home country, Pizza! Sergio take bite, father would love this! Back in film Sergio get seat in balcony and look around. Below Sergio see something that say "Holocaust Survivor Section" when Sergio lean over to see better pizza fall! It land in hair of old lady! People begin to yell and scream and Sergio run out of theater! What happened, Sergio not understand! America is land of movies and magic, why this happen to Sergio!

That name thing Posted 12-4-2000 04:28



Im sorry for causing a name rucus (sp?) I am just using my real name, I wasn't aware that so many people on here were named John.

Anyways, after reading Sergio's most recent post I have to say I kind of feel sorry for the guy.....and I know just the thing to cheer him up.

Sergio seems a bit lost and a bit depressed. After all if you were new to America and your father was an alcoholic and abusive person you would be lonely too.

What I am suggesting is that someone start a Sergio Fansite!.

Yes folks, just think about it, a site where you could go to talk with the legendary indy filmmaker Sergio! A place where you could go to discuss his newest work with him and his fans. Personally I would be a big fan of such an idea, and would help out anybody with the know how to organize and produce such an adventure.

What does everyone say?

No affiliation Posted 12-5-2000 05:18



I am not really affiliated with any company, though I have seen some of GMP Mike's stuff from a mutual friend. It was also that mutual friend who got me reading the boards in here.

And NO I do not know Sergio personally ( Though I would not meeting such a good filmmaker! ) I just have a tender spot for idiot comedy as I called it earlier, and I have a soft spot for hardluck cases.

Nobody seemed to be too interested in my Fansite idea, eh?

A fansite is not enough... Posted 12-5-2000 15:01



I think a movie should be made to honor the life of Sergio! I'm have some connections in the FOO/Pangea world and will see if I can pull some strings. I've already started writing a script...

American Zombie Hot Wax Bikini-Bimbo Car Wash From Hell 2 Posted 12-31-2000 06:13



I right to you from my basement, father has used my bedroom for sex den. He say "Sergio, you 29 years old now! Time to get out!" My mother pray he will feel different, but Sergio think not, Sergios last film flopped. Mother had one credit card and Sergio maxumed it out to buy equipment and lights and pay stripper to star in film. Film called "Zombie Girl Hot Wax Car Wash 2: Adventures in Time" it was loosely based sequel to American Film Beverly Hills Cop starring world war 2 action hero Audie Murphy. But Sergio still have lots to learn about American Culture. Stripper named Sindy come to set she say "Where my water!" sergio show her toilet, "You need use?" she say "My Bottle of Natural Spring water, like duh, where's craft service?" Sergio not understand " You service my craft!!! Take clothes off for scene!!" she do. Scene call for hot vampire stripper putting hot wax on sports car in California sun, but Sergio just have rusty old Mazda and snow on ground. Sindy tell Sergio to "get bent" and leave!
Sergio call Hans to Wax car with wig on but Hans say "NO! he go see paper view wrestling!" what this is Sergio know not. Then father smash Sergio camera and say "work in fishery or live on streets with american bums!" All Sergio want to do is make American films much like Das Boot and Battleship Potempkin! Why world hate Sergio, everyone talk about fancy computers and DVD? what is this? Sergio know not! HELP!!!!

Getting some o' that Posted 1-3-2001 07:45



hey Jeff, I tried checking out your sitebut the page wouldn't load. I'm wondering if you have a Box address that I could mail something to because I have some great ideas for possible costumes for your movie. Now, mind you they are just concepts but you can take stills of the concepts on the paper and post them on your site so that they could be viewed.

of course, you will need to go download a RealViewer to be able to view them but the trouble should be worth the wonderful art "concepts" that your fans will be able to view once they've completed the 3.5 hour long download.

Oh and these concept drawings have NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE!!!!!!

Look Out....LUDWIG!! Posted 3-10-2001 07:21



Hallo Friends It's SERGIO! The other day Hans say "Sergio, we go to dance club and find flying american women!" Sergio up for hot adult love whenever possible. Since Sergio last adventure at Rave, Sergio understand more of American Culture. Snap Caps, Frizzilars, and Swizzle Sticks, are forms of narcotics. and if someone offers you a stamp it's not for mailing letter to mom! Sergio put on sunday best and ready to go to rave to meet future wife, or maybe just settle for what americans call a slut. In car Hans say we go to Grave, not rave. Sergio think Grave is strange place to meet girl, but Hans say Grave is place like Rave, but for Goth people. THey play black metal remixing. Sergio lost at this point, but with sunday best on and brut cologne what can go wrong!

Club is loud and people give strange looks. People look weird! Like horror movie! I say - where is Marilyn Monroe! Then Sergio see him. Ludwig! He has camera and is shooting scene for movie. Ludwig tell actors playing Vampires "dance, spit blood! Dance!" Scene looks great. Sergio say "I make movie too! I make film call look out ghost!" Sergio get pushed down. Ludwig spit and say " I come from Germany to America to make movie, get lost euro-trash!" Sergio shocked!

Next week at film festival Sergio see Ludwig. Ludwig say "I make movie called Space Vampire Pirates from the center of the solar system, he say film star guy who played in TV show Charles in Charge. Sergio not belive the hype, but it true! Ludwig's film have Charles in Charge. People Cheer when Charles bites neck of beautiful girl. Sergio see scene that was shot at goth grave club! Amazing! People clap and cheer. Sergio's film "look out ghost" come on. For once Sergio see faults. people see director in mirror, you can hear Mom talking to imigration officer on phone in next room, see tripod lying on couch, actor is boy with wig on, and worse of all - NO CHARLES IN CHARGE! People boo and and say what is this? Then Ludwig win award! He make joke at podium about how bad Look out Ghost was and want his lost time of life back! People laugh and agree, Sergio slump in his chair. Mother, Father, Grandma, and Grandpa look embarressed and sad for Sergio, well father look angry, but everyone else look sad. Sergio will find out where Ludwig lives and stop him from making more movie! Sergio just want to rip off Scream like all other film makers in America! What went wrong! Someone please help Sergio! What do wrong!!!!???

Everyone here is just terrific. Except maybe Sergio.. 'Look Out! Ghost' was predictable and flat. Hehe.. so it's said and done, and moviemaking life goes on. Maybe it's my lack of updates.. when the new site goes up, there'll be plenty to talk about. ;)

I'll leave it at that. Got way too many technical nightmares going on here to get into it anyway. :)

Could Sergio be at the fest? Posted 6-28-2001 00:28



We at REwind are pleased to announce that we will be taking The Bags, Justice and Voice of Reason out of the festival lineup so that we can run the Sergio debut, 'Look Out! Ghost!' over and over. According to Sergio's review of his own movie, it's got a scary ghost and 'adult love'. Of course this itinerary change will only happen if Sergio shows up and introduces the film himself on stage.

Yes, I'm kidding. (Hopefully those not familair with Sergio didn't just have a heart attack.) Sergio! You must come to festival and bring mother's meatballs with you for all!

LOOK OUT GHOST BUSTER! Posted 7-20-2001 06:54



And now, a very special post-REwind fest message from elephant rape and Garrett Gilchrist from Orange Cow.

If you're from a production team who had at least one person attending Camp REwind, read this, you are needed for a very special collaborative filmmaking assigment. If no one you know was at Camp REwind, well, you got your own problems, ignore this and go cry in a corner somewhere or something.

Anyway, to the point. I will copy this from an email I sent some folks already, since I dunno if I wanna type it all again.
--

I was trying to shoot a movie called Ghost Busted at the fest, a few real scenes and a lot of running around with the camera asking people what sort of Ghostbuster they'd be. It was inspired by Jason Santo's article at Crazymofo.com about wanting to be a ghostbuster in real life. Some scenes were shot. I gathered some footage, but not enough -- Mike Stoklasa from GMP is supposed to edit it. Anyway, I thought I'd turn the unfinished project into a real collaborative effort, where teams that were at the fest could shoot their own footage on their own terms and then send it in to Mike for inclusion in the finished thingy.

Yeah, so the movie wasn't completed as scripted. I wasn't concerned then, since I was too busy having lotsa fun at the Fest, and I'm not concerned now, because let's face it, there were people who weren't at the Fest [though their directors were] who were thus sorely missed -- Rich Evans, Jesse Sorgatz, Liza Renley, Dan Gorgone, C.C. Chapman, Roman Berman, Frank Parker, Kerry Gorgone, Joe Vaccariello, David Ashe, Chris Federico -- I could go on and on. Think of this as a way of getting them into the Fest in an honorary fashion. We will ALL be in the same movie now, combining comedy sketches and documentary footage. All we need from you is footage starring your team!

It's simple enough -- shoot some footage about Ghostbusters [on MiniDV if you have it, otherwise dupe it to MiniDV afterwards, or VHS or SVHS, he can't work with it otherwise] ... the footage should be postmarked by July 27th, so you'll have to work fast. What we'd like is, your production team lipsynching along, in a car or walking along or whatever, to the tune of Ray Parker Jr's "Ghostbusters" theme [this will be cut into a montage, so shoot several different short bits of footage from any point in the song]. If you have time, we'd be interested in seeing you direct a brief original comedy sketch that has ghosts or the paranormal or references to Ghostbusters or Ghostbusting in it -- your team could become the Ghostbusters and parody a scene from the film, or simply be set upon by strange occurrences that could only be blamed on ghosts. You don't have to edit this footage, Mike will do it, just send him the script along with your tape.

Please MAKE A COPY OF YOUR FOOTAGE before sending it to Mike. Tapes can and will be lost in the mail, and you don't want to lose your only copy. But do send Mike the original footage and not the copy, for best quality.


The sketches should be your group-centric. For example, Stoklasa himself will be including Rich Evans in the festivities, and hilarity will ensue. From Infiniti, we might want to see the Canadian Ghostbusters -- since after all Harold Ramis, Rick Moranis etc were Canadian and this is a strong part of the Ghostbusters heritage. Also, Wally would have to say that his pimp hand is strong. And fight. And Steve could run. From Foo, we already got a story with April holding her right hand over her ear and being disappointed with Jay's childishness -- can this arc be resolved? Might Axl Madsumo appear? Rusty Hoot could fight ghosts with swords. Chubby Ninja could do what they do. And Queequeeg, well, Queequeeg can do whatever the heck they want. They made plastic bags menacing, ghosts should be child's play. References to the films, the cartoon show, and the films of Sergio are acceptable .... basically, have fun, run riot, do whatever you like. This is all about the funny. Hell, if the real Sergio is around here, feel free to submit your film "Look Out Ghost," anonymously if you like -- it will be used in its entirety. Never did figure out who that guy was, though I still have my suspicions ....

I dunno what will happen, this could be a cool little project if I can get people from each production group to submit.

Send your tape to:

GMP Pictures
P.O. Box 419
Oak Forest, IL 60452

Does Sergio Dream of Electric Sheep? Posted 7-23-2001 17:08



Hello my friends it Sergio! I make back from home country and totally forget to go to rewind movie magic awards. Deepest appologies. I see many sheep in home country and even see release of new American Film "Bubbles love me" starring Tickle Me Elmo. It suck, but Sergio must always see new Woody Allen film when it come out.
Reason for going to old country was Father need to see his dying grandmother, she was 112 years old. Father cry at her bed side while she pass away. Sergio stand by playing gameboy. As Grandmootie pass on into next life, Sergio pass on to next level in Tetris! Father break Gameboy and tell me Grandmootie secretly hated me. He storm out of room.
Now that grandmootie finally die it was time to return to America! Sergio love old country, but love America even more. Old Country does not have things America does. like good movies, raves, and fast food! However, Sergio's love of American greed come back to haunt him. Other night Sergio have terrible dream. Sergio traped in rectangular video game screen. ten feet above I see Grandmootie!! Her face is blue and she is half decomposed. She laughing at Sergio and throwing down tetris pieces. Sergio catch them and try to form puzzle, but Sergio not fast enough!!! Pieces fall and hit Sergio in head, Grandmootie laugh louder and more often. Pieces keep coming as she throw them at me. Faster and Faster!! Sergio can't keep up and soon is trapped!! suffocated!!.... Sergio wake up in cold sweat. Was it dream? Or was grandmootie haunting Sergio from beyond the grave for playing gameboy while she died? Sergio will never know. Dream was scary cause Sergio could not form puzzle, can you?
