From Jeremy's Interaction
"I'm about to start a new film next week that shoots in Oregon that is called The Sasquatch Dumpling Gang. It's a lot of the same people from Napoleon Dynamite and its a hilarious script! I think you all will enjoy it and will be quoting lines from the movie. I'm also looking at some other film scripts that look pretty good and when I decide something, I'll let you know."
