Press Release:

Cyber-Active Premier: Bloodlines Trailer to Premier at CPL World Tour Stop

The first trailer for Bloodlines, a Serendipitous Film, is signed, sealed, and ready to be delivered. The venue is none other than the Cyberathlete Professional League's World Tour Stop in Grapevine, Texas...

Dallas, TX, July 03, 2005 --(PR.COM)-- Serendipitous Films has chosen the US stop of the Cyberathlete® Professional League (CPL) World Tour to premier the first trailer of their latest feature, Bloodlines. Beginning on July 6th, the event will take place at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, Texas. The Bloodlines trailer premier is scheduled at 8:30pm on Friday, July 8th, at the main CPL Summer Event stage hosted by Intel.

Filmed in Fort Worth, Frisco, and Dallas, Texas, Bloodlines stars Lou Diamond Phillips (La Bamba, Young Guns, Courage Under Fire), Yancy Butler (Witchblade, Drop Zone), Tom Wright (Barbershop 1 and 2, Murder at 1600), Glenn Morshower (24, CSI, Black Hawk Down, Pearl Harbor), Jeff Speakman (The Perfect Weapon, The Gunman), and Dallas newcomer Troy Baker. The film also marks the acting debut for Angel Munoz, president of the CPL, who was cast as the Latin American corporate president taken hostage.

Inspired by the world of cyber-warfare, the Bloodlines plot involves a next-generation weaponry manufacturer. "There is no better place to premier the first trailer – the CPL and the gaming community served as an inspiration while developing the concept for this film," states Writer/Director Daniel Millican. Producer Jeff Rodgers adds, "This is a match made in heaven for the CPL and Serendipitous Films. The 2004 Summer Event was unprecedented, and this year's will be even greater."

The Bloodlines trailer premier should have quite an audience – online tickets to the Cyberathlete® Extreme Summer Championships have already sold out. A total of 7,300 gamers from 60 different countries registered online for the five-day CPL World Tour event, which will take place July 6th through July 10th in Grapevine, Texas. More information regarding the CPL event can be found at www.theCPL.com.

Jeff, I had been holding out until I get the credit block fixed (Vincent's name was inadvertantly left off).

This movie looks like complete garbage.

Would you care to elaborate on 'garbage'?

The use of the CS sounds are meant to be a bit tongue-in-cheek. The sound effects (and the trailer) were specifically done for the CPL event. We will be redoing all of the sound effects, and this movie is by NO means complete from a sound perspective. The only sound we may keep as a 'nod' to the online game is the grenade sound, the one that goes down the stairwell.

This movie has a much deeper storyline, albeit action based, but the story is quite engaging. It has a little horror, a little CS, and a little Die Hard. Most of all the CPL talk is banter at the beginning of the movie. The gaming/CPL talk is over in about the first 10-15 minutes.

We took a chance with making a 'fun' trailer. A lot of gamers have smiled about it, but we've gotten other comments like yours. But make no mistake, we wanted to hear back from you. There will be a new trailer put together for the release of the movie.

Keep up the comments, messages, and questions. We want to hear it.

Thanks,
Jeff Rodgers
