Bought a book recently from the Borders' clearance sale: Homemade Hollywood. Describes the fascination in fan-made adaptations of their favourite movies and comic book heroes. Legal suits and the lack of money and resources don't seem to deter them. Some were made with the hope of landing that dream Hollywood gig, yet it remains largely a pipe dream. The extent to which independent and hobbyist filmmakers can go to chase after their dreams.
Found tons of homemade Hollywood films online.
I like this the best. Grayson is a fan-made trailer on the premise that Batman is dead, presumably killed by Superman, while Dick Grayson aka Robin attempts to avenge his mentor's death. Robin in a starring role will be very much appreciated.
In Sandy Collora's fanmade trailer (US$12, 000) World's Finest, 2004, Superman teams up with Batman. LexCorp merges with Wayne Enterprises. But it remains at best, just a trailer.
Collora's debut fanfilm is Deadend, 2003. Where the Dark Knight takes on the Predator.
Dan Poole's Spiderman: The Green Goblin's Last Stand was made in 1992. No excuse not to make a film, just because you are not a professional and don't have the resources. It takes a lot of ingenuity to do something like this.
