UPDATE- Ok, looks like we are rocking out our somewhat embarrassing, but for a good cause PSA tomorrow (chat members were warned) and then we are FINALLY going to have resolution on a story line last fall next Tuesday-ish. Let me give you a clue...we MADE CONTACT!! (PREVIOUS) Hey Everyone! OK, we are putting up new material tomorrow or latest Friday. We have absolutely no idea which piece yet. We've got like 5 things that are half-edited because we keep changing our minds:) But, the good news is, there's lots of stuff in the Q, so thanks for your patience!!
Comments (18)
I'm guessing with your record it's going to be posted late late friday or saturday :P

New vid will be up once it's finished. Just know that they're working diligently to post it for you as soon as possible.

I concur with Katie if you notice all their work is so great because they take the time to make sure it's done right. =]

Oh I guess I was partially right "again", because it's monday and if I'm correct I see no new stuff on this site.

Anonymous, you've gotta chill. Art takes time and it's always worth the wait on this site. This mouse is ashamed to have a similar name to such an impatient person. Even us critters have more patience than you.

Bro, I hate to step in here as I don't really feel like I should have to, but I can't let them be slammed.
They are doing their absolute best to pump out new content as quickly and as often as possible. You have to understand that there is a direct correlation between the length of time it takes to shoot/edit a vid and the quality. That is, you can have average content more often, or you can get great, traditional WH quality stuff less frequently. Remember that there are other things besides making videos that come into play when you're in the midst of trying to turn a fun, non-paying website you created with your friends into a job. You obviously love their content, so I can understand your frustration. But, I think it's fair to say that they're in a somewhat transitional phase right now, and perhaps experiencing some growing pains with trying to balance videos v. business. However, I can absolutely assure you that everything they are doing now is to ensure the future of Whatever Hollywood as both a website and business; thus providing you with a constant stream of vids down the line.
I'm pretty sure that they appreciate your patience more than you know, and they certainly don't like having to push back releasing new vids at all.
As the blog post says, there are many great videos ready for release. If you can just be patient and attempt to understand that they don't like doing this either, I think you'll be very happy with Whatever Hollywood in the coming months.
Thanks,

Fenominally well put Katie. :]

Very well done Katie!
I am soooo super-excited for the new vid. We started selling PopChips at the store I work for and I've been telling everyone about them and you girls too!!
:)

Thanks, guys (though now I'm dreaming of an edit button; I started two successive sentences with simple connectors? Eeek!)
This will be my last word because I'm not a fan of turning the comments into a debate, but someone had to take a stance. Anyway, if you count it all up, you'll find that in their first year--granted it really started in May--they released ~14 vids. 2008? Almost double that. Right now they have more vids out than at this point last year, and with five edits already half-done, '09 is looking great.
Now, although I don't share some of the current feelings about WH, I love that people are upset. The fact that someone actually bothered to post shows that fans are really missing new content. I can absolutely understand the general frustration about the occasionally iffy schedule, but it's difficult to do everything at once without running yourself into the ground. There are a lot of very time-consuming things that must be done to make WH run, and at last check, it's still just the three of them. Eventually they'll get to the point where they'll be able to afford to delegate some of the tasks, but getting there is a lot of work, so right now they have to deal with what they have.
I think that the best thing that fans can do is just continue to voice support. They've said how much sweet e-mails/comments mean, and everyone knows that completing a project is much easier when you have people rooting for you, rather than against you. Also, just as an aside, semi-insinuating that someone has let you down (be it justified or not) never makes the other side feel better.
Again, this is just a general plea for patience and support from everyone.
And done.

Thanks for ALWAYS brining me a smile. You are producing amazing videos and I am very proud to be a fan of WH!

=) Great Katie.
Yea, I sometimes wish there was an edit button after I noticed I totally screwed something up. Or be like FB where you can just delete it and re-do it. haha

Well said everyone(Katie). I can't wait for the next great video.
