In reference to the religious backers of Plan 9: About two years ago I got a call to help produce a show from some people who had helped me cast a PSA. Turned out it was a religious group with very little money with which to make the show. Everyone involved starting calling me Ed Wood by the end of the project because the show kept changing due to "religious conflicts" the backers had with it. If you've seen the Ed Wood movie you know the trouble he had making Plan 9 like he wanted to.
The local paper also gave one of my films honorable mention (dishonorable) in something they called the "Plan 9 awards" or something like that. It was for the worst horror film of all time.
What kills me is, 40 years ago Ed Wood worked with more money than I do now. Of course I work on video a lot so that makes up the difference.
