Elvis_Christ 01-31-2012 08:17 PM

Congratulations NE!

The Ugly Duchess 01-31-2012 08:17 PM

Congradulations to all of the winners!

This has been a fun and exciting night.

And again, good job NE.

Enjoyed the music as well.

Straker 01-31-2012 08:18 PM

Nice one, NE. :cool:

Soozan 01-31-2012 08:20 PM

Standing up and clapping! Whoop, NE is outstanding!

_____V_____ 01-31-2012 08:20 PM

And now ladies and gentlemen,

last but not the least...

An address by your HDC President.

I give you...


fortunato 01-31-2012 08:21 PM

Alright, great night, V! Thanks so much for your amazing work! You deserved every one of the many awards you received tonight.

And congrats to NE as well. You also really deserved your awards. Well done!

And the bar is officially closed.

neverending 01-31-2012 08:21 PM

Thanks again, everyone...

I say that right now we should elect V to the hall of fame next year!

And don't go away yet... Doc has some kind of mysterious speech to give!

Doc Faustus 01-31-2012 08:22 PM

Speech HDC Awards


First of all, I’d like to thank V for naming me president last year. It was an honor and a privilege and I wish I could have been around to perform more of my duties. I had a lot on my plate and 2011 was not a good year for me. I wish I could have shared your joy and your fun in 2011. I spent much of 2011 maneuvering around the horror and weird fiction communities. Still in service to the genre, still hoping to make sure there was better art for everybody that had the culture and vision to appreciate it. A lot of people don’t. They see there’s a new crappy remake being shoved down their throat and they shell out their eleven dollars, thinking they have no options. HDC is not about that. HDC is about how fans have power and significance and can make life better. By giving those who love horror somewhere where they don’t have to be alone and by standing up for the culture they want. What I learned these past couple of years as a small press novelist is very similar to what I learned at HDC. I learned that I don’t have to watch bad movies or read bad books and that when people put their money and their passion behind good movies and good books, then life gets better. Y Keep on doing this. Keep putting your energy behind the things you care about and you’ll see more like it, or you’ll see art you never thought you would. Many of the artists who make the independent films or write the books we enjoy are very approachable and want to hear from you. They care that you stand up for that work, they care that you love it or hate it or wish it was longer or whatever. Tell them in your tweets, your Facebook posts and your forum posts. We are not just people bitching on the internet. We have power. And if we use it right and if we keep this a place where we use this power to make people smarter, happier and more well informed, then it will grow and our lives will only continue to get better. Thank you HDC, have a great 2012. Good night! Peace out!

Marley's Ghost 01-31-2012 08:22 PM

another fun and memorable award show

Thanks V, neverending and fortunato...and all who showed up


Good times

Straker 01-31-2012 08:27 PM

Congrats to all the winners.

V, great job with the awards, always a blast. :cool:

NE, quality job with the tunes as always... But I did get a little concerned when you let the Twilight soundtrack slip in there. :rolleyes:

neverending 01-31-2012 08:27 PM

Well said, Doc! Every word is true. We have power as fans- support the kind of work you really enjoy, and don't go see the latest movie just because it's a horror film and you think you need to support every single thing that comes along.

Congrats to all you've done, Doc, and continue to do... 2011 was a hard year for many, and particularly yourself... but you're getting stronger every day. Thanks for being a great example.

And if you don't get together with me next time you're in Portlandia, there will be trouble!

neverending 01-31-2012 08:31 PM

V- another fine awards ceremony! Thanks for hosting!

_____V_____ 01-31-2012 08:31 PM

And with that, we come to the end of this year's Awards ceremony, folks. It has been a blast bringing it to all of you. Congratulations to all the winners and the nominees.

For all those who lost (specially by small margins), remember there's always next year. And every member who got nominated is a winner in my book - remember you were the best choice for that category for a particular HDC member - so that makes you a winner as well.

Thank you, Fortunato, for keeping the bar going well and truly into the night. Superbly wonderful work with the drinks and serving, my friend. A tip of my hat to you. :)

Thank you, Neverending, for providing such an outstanding ambience with your background scores and immensely entertaining LIVE commentary of the HDC Awards 2011. This becomes all the more rocking just because of the superb injection of NEW Radio, year after year. Excellent, my friend!

And finally, thank you to all the HDC members who stayed throughout the Awards to cheer on the nominees and winners alike. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. On behalf of NE, Fortunato and me, we stay to serve all of you.

Thank you and Good Night, folks. Stay safe wherever you are.

Until the 2012 version. This is ______V_____ saying CIAO!
