It Lives... AGAIN!!! (Patreon)

Now it can be told.
So - since the video shows up first and since I imagine many will have seen it go up before reading this, here's the explanation for what's going on i.e. why are "season compilations" of the old-school Escapist/Screwattack/etc-era episodes of SCHLOCKTOBER now showing up on the dedicated MovieBob YouTube channel?
There will be a few more details on this in a video going up later tonight/early Saturday, but since it's a Friday night I wanted to at least give folks something for all the waiting people have been doing; but the short version is that, while one of the main reasons I originally made the somewhat difficult decision to add to my workload and endure what I knew would be some skepticism of helping to rebuild what was (at the time) left of The Escapist brand a little over a year WAS indeed to get some small degree of symbolic "moral victory" i.e. various foolish voices out in the ether who'd believed (incorrectly) that they or their myriad "movements" had something key to do with the end of my tenure there, a more substantive concern was to reaquire certain levels of ownership/co-control over materials I'd created and produced while working there that had become entangled in various business issues that are difficultly understood (and not for public consumption in any case.)
The bottom line of this is: I'm HAPPY to announce that, as of very recent, I have sorted these matters at long last and am now able to begin a LONG asked-for (by my fans and Patrons) and long wanted (by me!) project of *bringing restored versions of the original episode run of "THE BIG PICTURE"* to the MovieBob channel - and I thought the best way to kick it off would be with a multi-day rollout of "SCHLOCKTOBER" season-combo episodes for everyone's Halloween Season binge-viewing fun. Please share and enjoy!
As I said, more will be coming... and not just in the form of videos! As "THE BIG PICTURE" is now, for the first time, a full property of MovieBob Productions, I am able to begin merchandising and promoting the series on my own and I plan to do so very soon - *STAY TUNED!*
P.S. "Really That Good: STAR WARS" is also nearing completion, and I'd like to again clarify that YES, it's regrettable delay is very much attributable to the unexpected extra workload of this relaunch presenting itself - though I hope, with this and further information, those who've been waiting can understand why it occured.
