Subject:      JK Interview Re. Upcoming Movie Role

Hi, all.  Thought some of you would be interested in this.

The following are various excerpts relating to John Kapelos and his
role in the movie "The Relic" from the Chicago Tribune Magazine article
"Unnatural History" dated May 19, 1996:

<The article doesn't say when the movie will open, though it does
state that the movie is currently in the final stages of post production.
Also, a major press junket is planned for July at the Field Museum of
Natural History in downtown Chicago where location shooting was
done last October.  Other stars in this film are Tom Sizemore, Penelope
Ann Miller, Linda Hunt, and James Whitmore.>

"The Relic" is based on "Relic", a fast-paced 1996 novel that imagined
what might happen if an ancient prehistoric beast were snatched from
its lush Amazon-basin habitat and brought to a fictitious North
American museum.  The catch here is that the scientists on the
receiving end are unaware of what they're getting, because the entire
field team was killed.

In the film, the various nooks and crannies of a major American museum
and research facility provide a refuge for amysterious killer whose vicious
attacks threaten to spoil the opening of a hot-ticket "superstition exhibit".
As the body count mounts, it becomes clear the culprit is not your run-of-
the-mill, museum-dwelling psychopath.

John Kapelos, an eight-year Second City veteran, who may be most
familiar for his roles as Carl the janitor in "The Breakfast Club" and as
David Letterman's producer in "The Late Shift", plays a lawman who must
protect the major and his wife from the creature.  He spends quite a bit of
time in the tunnels.

"I ended up being a cop named McNally, who goes after this primal being,"
Kapelos said over lunch in a Sunset Strip bistro.  "He's a regular Chicago
cop who gets inexorably drawn into the maelstrom of activities that lead to
his demise.  We don't kow what it is in the beginning.

"The definitely cast me because I'm a Chicago guy, and I played a cop on
TV (CBS' "Forever Knight").  I've got a Chicago cop's dimensions.  I think
a Chicago cop's MO is that he's attitudinal and always looking for food.

"I don't want to be disrespectful, but the first thing I noticed about
Chicago cops is that they didn't have the shape of policemen out here.
L.A. cops look like young Tom Sellecks."

Before leaving Chicago for Los Angeles, Kapelos, native of London, Ontario,
enjoyed visiting the Field Museum.  Thus, he was especially impressed by
the work of the set designers, even knowing that he would play a part in
destroying their handiwork.

"The way they've re-created this priceless museum is pure Hollywood movie
magic," Kapelos said.  "We couldn't do to the Field Museum what we did to
that set.  It's rained on and trashed.  I'm thrown through one of the
windows. It was neat."

<Regarding the movie's budget>  "It was like a taxi meter," said Kapelos, a
dedicated musician who is putting the finishing touches on a show he would
like to unveil in Chicago next fall.  "Every three or four days, someone
would say, 'That's $48 million...52...57.'  I don't know what it ended up
being."

It happened in the flashbacks for "A Fate Worse Than Death". Janette was a
prostitute in medieval Paris who was being sexually assaulted by some
soldiers; LaCroix swooped in and the rest is history.  :-)  The present day
story which this ties into concerns a prostitute who is being brutalized by
her pimp.

A *very* good Janette story if you ever get a chance to watch it!

Subject:      IF YOU WANT A 4th SEASON, PRESS HERE!!

I, too, had a bad night after LK.  I cried & yelled out (almost woke up
the building) at certain points.  But, I had to channel this immense
energy into something positive.  So, with the love of Nick, the faith &
trust of Natalie, & the (ultimate) compassion of LaCroix (though NO
spoilers here), here's what I offer to the FK masses as some...
                        positive revenge!

THANKS TO ALL THE FKers out there who have brought us the second season,
these lists, spoilers, fic, internet organization, crane campaigns, all
the factions/affiliations, the cons, the LK parties, NAFTE stormtroupers,
etc.  We wouldn't be here w/o YOU!  Our humble & sincere thanks!

But, this is the next dawn & we're still here & so is our dream!
I suggest at least one way we can take back what is OURS (the future of
FK)!  So, if you're pissed, lost, depressed, lost, out of tissue, out of
chocolate ... here's a few things WE CAN DO:

***FIRST***
BE GRATEFUL TO THOSE WHO HAVE HELPED US (& help them to continue to do so):
 ==========================================================================
WRITE/CALL/EMAIL "Thank You" notes, complements, & requests to the stations
which have run FK eps this year (other than USA).  Many of these are one-
station independents. They all LOVE love letters for the FCC file (comes
in handy for 3-year license renewal).  This feels much better than
spending energy on nastygrams to the old PTW (powers that were!). (Write
to the cable companies which carry SciFi, too!)

***NEXT***
BE AN IRRESISTABLE FORCE!
=========================
*WE* are the Powers That Be!  This is a case of Supply & Demand (classic
capitalism).  The networks & production companies don't care about quality
or art.  They care about profit, predictable return-on-investment, & new
markets.

The way networks & production companies find/decide on their new line-up
is either someone has a bright idea & the marketing research backs it up,
or there's a hole in the schedule & whatever is the Most Sure $$$ Thing
gets to fill it.  That's a TV fact.

But, what can we do?  We (the "Demand") must speak louder & to more people
& not give up UNTIL our "Demand" is recognised & answered, on OUR terms.
We are lucky.  We don't have to invent the method; we just have to follow
it!  For all those Star Trekkers & other save-quality-TV groups before
us, we salute you.

Face it, Forever Knight has NEVER had any real promotion or merchandising
developed.  We have no Paramount, no Gene Roddenbury, or J. Michael (B5)
to focus or give direction to the energy we all feel right now
(& forever).  But, we can still gather the demographics, the marketing
research, the numbers, etc. BECAUSE of the Internet, these lists, & our
refusal to settle for nothing less when it comes to Forever Knight!
 We are a force to be reckonned with!  We can do it from the ground up!

THINK LOCALLY, ACT GLOBALLY (for FK)!
=====================================
1) Gather information, analyse it into terms & stats which TV folks
   CANNOT ignore.  We are the surest thing I've seen, but we & the
   stations which air/ed the show are scattered.  Someone wrote that one
   reason the ratings were listed as lower than we know is that the eps
   were aired on so many different channels.  SO, LET's GATHER & UNIFY
   UNREFUTABLE STATS OURSELVES!

2) Do the same for merchandising demographics.  But while we're at it,
   let's determine what WE want to see produced & marketed (not some
   cheesy marketing guy's idea of the cheapest knock-off slime for $$$).
   Watch SCIFI's Anti-Gravity Room & other shows.  They always have
   segments on cool stuff from this show or that creator/author.  We must
   speak loudly & in unison & they'll have to come.  (The profit motive
   can be more compelling than even Janette's gaze!)

3) Find a NEW home for the 4th season &/or movies:  Yes, the PTW still
   have copyrights, but they will sell to the highest bidder or cave in
   if the "Demand" is truely undeniable.  And, there ARE visionary,
   sympathetic, folks w/$$$ who would be interested in the show &/or
   merchandising.  We just have to find them & be real convincing &
   peristent.


WE CAN ALL DO THESE THINGS!
Let me be the first to volunteer.  Again (to borrow from Babylon 5's
homepage & success -- yes, the "FK by other authors" was great & look what
we produced!)  I believe we need to gather viewing stats & a list of
stations which air/ed Forever Knight.  I will gather & compile these &
provide to the list so that we all can write nice notes to them & so that
newbies can have this resource THIS SUMMER! Please participate in the
survey below:

Feel free to take the time to gather your station's info from the phone
book, etc. if you can.  This will greatly aid the compilation of data.
I plan to have this data compiled for inclusion on the FK homepage (web
god/des(ses) permitting) by July 1. Please copy this survey & hand it
out to your FK friends/newbies for them to reply, too.  I will keep
adding new survey inputs to the stats for all to see.

YOU HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE THIS DIFFERENCE!

Thanks for letting me indulge in my positive revenge.  It certainly helped
w/today's sun scorchings (on top of tears!).

Think of other ways you can contribute to the reality of FK continuing!
I am also posting a merchandising survey (much shorter).

"One always recognises family"... I thank you all for being here!

p.s. How about we all do a Game of Clue movie take on this last ep.
CLUE had three different & equally legit endings for the movie.  How
about the pilot of the 4th season being another (& MUCH BETTER) rewrite
of Last Knight (maybe "Last Night"?)

BIONIC SHOWDOWN or something like that.  Ger was an evil bionic man and
a spy.

It was SO hard to watch without laughing.  Every time he did something
bionic, we kept laughing about how he wasn't bionic, he was just vamping
out.

Yes, I taped the whole thing. For a bionic movie, it was a little on the
silly side. Ger has a few good lines and he does a very convincing bad guy.

My favorite line:

"I'd like to think of myself as blonde, handsome and mysterious."

Subject:      4th SEASON, PRESS HERE, TOO!

Me again.  This is my second survey to gather crucial stats & provide
"sure thing" marketing research for the right merchandiser who wants
to help keep Forever Knight alive & kicking!

Forever Knight is VASTLY under promoted & not merchandise "exploited"
in any means.  I can't figure why the PTW (powers that were) didn't see
this one, but it is our RIGHT, RESPONSIBILIY, and OPPORTUNITY to demand
what we want in the way of Forever Knight merchandise (for the 1st
three seasons & any others which come along).


FOREVER KNIGHT MERCHANDISE SURVEY                              5/19/96
=================================                              =======
Please take a moment to answer these questions.  WHEN FK reincarnates
into another season, movie, etc., the backer(s) will want to know there
are accompanying income resources (i.e. merchandising).  THIS IS YOUR
CHANCE TO INDICATE WHAT YOU WANT & DON'T WANT!  LURKERS, pls come out
for this survey, too.  Please copy this survey & hand out to
non-Internet FK friends & to newbies!  As always, the more responses,
the more compelling an arguement to get what we want!

WHAT SHOULD BE MARKETED FOR FK?
-------------------------------
1)  Would you purchase the following? How much would you pay (US$)?
        -- coffee mug? (black w/FK logo? another design? another color?)
        -- comic books? (would they have to be in the FK "universe"?)
        -- novels? (would they have to be in the FK "universe"?)
        -- fanzines?
        -- filkbooks?
        -- original music books/sheets?
        -- The Raven/club stuff? (what?)
        -- more music by Fred? (FK only?  other Fred stuff?)
        -- trading cards w/characters photos & info
        -- technical books from the sets? scripts?
        -- FK fantasy art?  (what media?) (mail order?)
        -- FK t-shirts (what on it?  what colors?)
        -- FK halloween costuming? masks? (what? who?)
        -- posters?  (what shots? what groupings?)
        -- Ribena?
        -- FK vamp stuff? (what?)

2)  Do you agree that this is an adult market & being so, would you
    want to see "action figures" or is that too juvenile?   If you like
    the idea, pls specify what "attributes" you'd like your favorite to
    have (i.e. costume, color, hair(!!!), carrying what, etc.)?

3)  Do you know where you can get Ribena locally?  Pls indicate where &
    if you'd like to get it (retail or mail order).

4)  How about FK chocolate?
        -- what shape?
        -- what type of choclate? (milk, dark, semi, Belgian, etc.)
        -- would you pay extra for it to be a good quality chocolate?
        -- how much/pound would you pay (in US$)

5)  Would you buy different factions' FK chocolate?  If so, please
    indicate what flavor or filling would be most appropriate for each
    group (i.e. what filling for cousins, perkolators, etc.)

6)  Have you found Fred's CD in local music stores?  Have you asked for
    it by name?  What stores/what cities?  Will they get it for you?

7)  What else can we market?

ABOUT YOU & YOUR AREA:
----------------------
8)  How old are you?  What gender?  What profession (general)?

9)  In what city/state/country do you live?

10) Do you belive in purchasing by way of credit cards?

11) Do you order items through the mail?  Internet?

12) Pls indicate name/alias/email preference for tabulation only.

Pls send responses to me off-list (to save overloading post-LK list
traffic) by either email:
        lplummer@i....... (subject: FK merch survey)
or snailmail:
        FOREVER MEANS...FOREVER!!!
        00000-X Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000 USA

I will compile all responses & see if website can/wants to post analysis.

THIS INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE TO POTENTIAL MARKETERS!  Pls indicate
if you know of any potentials both for copyrighted stuff & other stuff
(i.e. Ribena, etc.) THANKS!



Now, let's see what someone else can come up with!  Anyone interested
in researching/organizing:

--A national (US, other countries) FK convention, for all factions/
  affiliations?  What city would be the most likely place?  What month
  of year?   What programming? How to organize all affiliations?

--A list of all potential buyers of a new season (contacts, we need
  contacts!) and someone to do this leg work...

--A list of merchandisers already in the works on FK stuff.  Accolades
  or protests (as to quality, etc.) could be organized.

Now, I can read the LK spoilers I've been saving all week (how about FK
hankies?!)  Thanks again for participating!

KCSM-TV in San Mateo (broadcast channel 60; cable assignment
varies) will be showing Gary Farmer's film "Powwow Highway"
this coming Thursday at 9:30 p.m.

Leonard Maltin gives the movie three stars and refers to
Farmer's "standout performance."

For recent FK converts, I should mention that Gary Farmer
played Nick's boss, Capt. Stonetree, in the first season of FK.

Wellllll... let's just say, this time I'm leaving a babysitter <g>.

And the recipient of this dubious honor is...  Allison Percy!

While I'm away, from this Tuesday to next, Allison
<percy91@w.......> will be keeping an eye on y'all.  Allison:
there's soda in the fridge, chips and cookies in the cupboard, and you can
order a virtual pizza and put it on the house account. <g>

She will be supported in this endeavor by Jaye, Our Phoenix

"Listwizard" Fasig, for tech support <phase3@g.......>; and the usual cast
of supporting characters that (with the assistance of the letters C and Q
and the number 7) bring you the Forkni lists.  Oh, and of course, the
hamsters.  Can't forget the hamsters.

Anyone looking for me between this Tuesday and next Tuesday can reach me at
<immajer@a.......>.

All right, kids, remember: five-line sigs, four-line quoting, NO SPOILERS
ON FORKNI-L, and make sure you announce spoilers and leave spoiler space on
your AtA and LK fanfic!  And as always, Be Excellent To Each Other.

See y'all in a week or so.  (Will see some of you in Michigan!)  :-)

Sorry to broadcast this, but I am trying to get my mail off digest and can't
find any directions to do so on the instructions from LISTSERV. I tried a
few logical messages, but all were rejected. If some kind soul knows the key
words I have to use to get off digests I'd be eternally grateful.

  He He, I watched it.  I've never seen it before and my husband and I were
guessing on who was the evil cyborg. (I guessed right)  One thing I noticed
is how good looking Ger was in this movie and how tired and worn out he
looks during the last few eps of this season.

Roni.

P.S.  I hope they never make anymore Bionic movies with Lee Majors.
