So it was literally more than twenty years ago that I first put one of my dumbest creations on the internet: The Steven Seagal Movie Generator.
Like I seriously publicly launched that dumb thing back in 2004, and for those of you who were unaware, it assembles a title, cast and plot of a fake Steven Seagal movie from elements of his (real) bad films.
I honestly got the idea from a former-friend, who in high school wrote a comedic piece about how you could mash up the titles of Seagal films in the weird underground "newspaper" that got handed out for a few years. But I took it a few steps further, and made a whole thing.
Mostly it just sat there though, a thing I made once and never went back to. I followed it up with the Sci-Fi Channel Movie Generator (later retitled the Syfy Movie Generator) in 2008. I spent more time on that one, doing a later design update that made the "Syfy" movies show up on a fake DVD back cover.
But the Steven Seagal generator just sort of sat there, untouched.
And Steven Seagal kept making (terrible) movies with (predictable) titles. Like a lot. But the generator still only spat out movies culled from the nineties and early 2000s, ignoring all of his new stuff. There was a whole library of awful movies that just weren't in there, and it made the generator feel less relevant.
So, uh, I went and did something about that today.
First off, I redesigned the page. Now it looks like the back of a VHS tape box. Then I loaded the elements of about twenty-five additional films into the generator. And that was harder than I thought it would be, since some of the films are so obscure that they're not well documented. I literally had to do some deep research to figure out a lot of the basic plot details that are now in the generator.
But I did it.
And it's done.
And the generator is now fully loaded.
It's still useless and dumb, though.

Welp, I guess that’s the answer to “now what will I read?”
It’s going to be super fun.
Agreed.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Trae, you did an amazing job with this comic. Sad to see it end, but it was a good run.
Best of luck on your next project.
Glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
Good luck on Peregrine Lake, I am not entirely sure I will be reading it though, it was the fact that there was a webcomic about staffing cons that brought me here and while I really like Lynn and Megan, well, we will see.
As for technology, just assume the most boring advancements and that is what we will have in 10 years.
Yeah, I know not everyone who read UnCONventional will jump on board with Peregrine Lake — that’s why it has a different title and is considered separate even though (arguably) the main character of UnCONventional is continuing as one of the leads.
If the people here just for the convention stories don’t read it, I won’t be offended. But the people who were into the personal stories may enjoy it.
Also, while it’ll still be a comedy, there’s gonna be spooky stuff. 😛
Neat. I originally came for the Convention related tales and cameos of people I know, but will stay (crossover?) for the tale telling and sense of humor.

I’m sad to the con aspect of the comic go away but I’m down to read about Peregrine Lake!
Same Ike, same. But hey, time to branch out a bit. We’ll see you next year, Trae
Hiya, kinda super late but I refound this comic recently.
Even if its been 4 years since I stopped (got removed/drama) this comic keeps resonating so so so relatable.
Thank you for thegood reed.

Is there any possibility that Peregrine Lake is going to come to fruition? This is still one of my favorite webcomics, hope so!
So I’ve done some work on it. At this point I don’t know if it’ll end up being a comic or something else though. The story will be told.
I don’t have a good timeline right now though, so I can’t make any promises about WHEN it’ll happen.
Took me a while, but it’s here.
