""The Last Scene" will be the FIRST comprehensive chronicle of what many believe is the LAST underground, DIY music scene. One forged in VFW halls and community recreation centers across the United States in the Late 1990's/Early 2000's."

The FIRST? Isn't this basically just another Bastards Of Young?

Regardless, I will totally watch this.

 

edit: deleted my posts cause i was being pointlessly negative to something that clearly has a ton of passion put behind it. my comments added nothing. It is incredibly impressive to already have that level of access/interviews to these artists before even being funded.

 

yeah i hope it's at least a little...critical of that

 

The current emo/indie scene >

 

It goes further back than Fall Out Boy and Underoath. The scene took off there, but it didn't start there.

My objective is to make a feature-length doc that covers about a 10-year period and I envision the narrative being organized chronologically into 3 distinct time-periods:

• 1997 - 2000
• 2001 - 2004
• 2005 - 2007 (with a "Where Are They Now," "What's It All Mean" coda...)

Bastards Of Young was a cool portrait of the scene when it was at its peak but I don't think it was in any way comprehensive.

 

...wouldn't be here if not for the former emo scene. What's the point of this comment?

 

fair enough.

 

Has anyone watched it? Can we say for certain that it doesn't acknowledge scenes that came afterwards?

I mean, it's obviously silly to say there's no superseding DIY scene.

 

The best part about Bastards of Young is definitely Matchbook Romance dressed up as the Ghostbusters.
