Coming Soon: Prop 8 Theatre

January 21, 2010

Okay, I wanted to post this separate from the news about the transcripts being released. It’ll either be a great tool or completely useless.

Filmmakers John Ireland and John Ainsworth are currently filming Perry v Schwarzenegger using official transcripts, first-hand accounts, and professional actors. They only have a teaser available now, but we should be seeing more in the very near future.

(I stole the title from amboy00. Mad props, yo.)

My only concern is that the Pro-Prop-8, anti-gay side might be made into a caricature. That could be troublesome. Then again, they’re doing a pretty good job of that all on their own, so I think we’ll be okay.

You can find more information or donate to the production at their website, MarriageTrial.com.

P.S. It was my idea first. Too bad they took out the best part…

    Thanks for posting the video Matt

    …but…

    is there any way you can stop it from playing automatically whenever the page loads? V. annoying when you're listening to music or something.

    I think I fixed it. Thanks for pointing it out!
