The Bearded Trio

James Kahn novelized Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, Poltergeist, Indiana Jones and The Goonies and now he's turning his talents to making his own movie.  James contacted us to tell us all about the Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign just launched to make the movie a reality.  It's called WRONGSIDE BOB, a comedy/drama with music written by James Kahn himself. You can get involved by supporting the campaign.  Perks start from just $5 and the bigger perks also include some wonderful Star Wars merchandise.  Here's what James has to say about WRONGSIDE BOB: This is it! I'm making my own movie! After decades of getting other people's stories up on the screen (www.thatjameskahn.com), I've taken the scary leap into the abyss of my longtime dream - to write and direct my own film. Titled WRONGSIDE BOB, it's a comedy/drama with my music, about the masks we wear and the risk of exposing our inner selves. This story is close to my heart on many levels...

A few weeks back I was lucky enough to catch up with author and composer James Kahn while at a local comic con.  James novelized Star Wars Episode VI:  Return of the Jedi , Poltergeist ,  Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Goonies to name a few.  He's met Steven Spielberg and George Lucas and I just had to get an interview for The Bearded Trio.  Here's what James had to say: You've novelized many blockbusters during your career. Which one gave you the greatest challenge? Probably Poltergeist.  I had a one month deadline to write it and I wanted to incorporate a lot of new material that came from my own experiences, and weren’t in the movie.  I had to write 15 hours a day for 29 days.     Was there a movie you wish you could have novelized? Yes, I was asked to novelize Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade , but I was head writer on a TV show by then – Family Medical Center – and had to turn down the novelization due to time...
