For those of you who actually watched the VERY FIRST Turbulator movie I made, please note that I have dismissed any affiliation it ever had with Episode 1 and future episodes of the Flash series. I'm starting anew. My first step in rebooting the idea of The Turbulator was the first episode of the series, "The God Of Lightning". Some, if not ALL of you who has seen it, may not grasp a lot of what is going on in that episode. That's because it was originally intended to pick up where that failure of a movie left off, but with a new and more complex plot forming at the same time, only I didn't realize that most of the elements in Episode 1 relied on the old plot as well. So when I removed that piece of crap movie from DA, it left Episode 1 with a lot of holes to fill up. "Who are these guys?" "How is he able to shoot lightning?" "How is he shooting wind?" "Who is Horseshoe?" "Why are they fighting in front of rubble?" "Where did those ninjas come from?" These are all questions that began to arise due to the absence of the back story that originated from the first Turbulator movie.
In order to make the series flow as I intended, I came to one solution: remake the Turbulator movie. Don't expect it to be ANYTHING like the old one; this remake will contain an entirely different plot, but one that the Flash series is built from. Needless to say, most (if not all) of the characters from Episode 1 will be included as well.
In order to work on this, I need place Episode 2 on an official hiatus to allot me the necessary time needed. I will, to the best of my ability, update everyone of the movie's progress as I complete different stages of the production. As of now, the movie is in the writing stage, so I will post an update when that is done. That is all for now.

Episode 2 Back In Production
Yes, Episode 2 of The Turbulator is back in production. Both problems that were holding it back have been solved; YTV's limit on submissions has been raised (from 5 minutes to 10), and I got a laptop to work with since my other computer keeps getting infected. The episode will be posted here around the same time it is shown at the YTV Film Festival, which I will let you know when that is as soon as I find out.

Episode 2 Delayed
Due to exceeding amounts of school/college work, and the time limit my school's film festival put on submitions, I am forced to postpone Episode 2 until further notice. I mentioned in an earlier post that I managed to get a head start on the episode. However, my computer got infected with malware forcing me to reset it back to factory settings, which meant erasing all previous work on the episode. Once I sort things out, I will post an update regarding the continuation of the episode, so keep your eyes peeled.

Update: The Turbulator Episode 2
I've managed to get a head-start on Episode 2 of The Turbulator. Due to a lack of recording time, John Markel and I couldn't coach the voice actors as well as I liked to. Because of this, there may be minor problems in the audio, but nothing that'll affect the outcome of the video. Also, there have been some slight changes in the voice cast. The voice of Xavier, for example will be voiced by Justin Charles (the voice of Krugen in John Markel's Flash Comic Universe) instead of Dimitri Inge, the original voice of Xavier. Other than this, there isn't really much that has changed voice-wise.
As far as animation goes, there will be a slight improvement on the mouth movements. Also, I realized that there was a recurring problem with the brightness in Episode 1 when some of the characters spoke. I intend to fix this problem.
That's it for now. Keep an eye out for more updates.

Turbulator/FCU Crossover
After Episode 2's release, John Markel and I plan to release a crossover between his series, Flash Comic Universe, and The Turbulator. Taking a turn from Episode 2's plot, the world (and art style) of The Turbulator will merge for the first time with that of Flash Comic Universe. As of now, I am currently working on Episode 2, while simultaneously working with John to write the crossover, so I do not know when either Episode 2 OR the crossover will be completed. All I know is that both videos WILL be released next year. For now, keep popping in for updates. For more information of Flash Comic Universe, visit Flash Comic Universe: The Blog.
