100 Subscriber Blog Post

After 1 year, 3 months, 2 weeks and 4 days, we finally reached 100 subscribers. It might not sound like much to we really appreciate it and we want to thank everyone for subscribing.

We released a Podcast celebrating the milestone. We hope to release a more detailed video in the next couple of days.



We'll never forget the day we reached 100 subscribers. Even though it doesn't sound like much compared to people like Pewdiepie and Vanoss. I'm sure every YouTuber will always remember the day they reached 100, and we'll never forget it. Thanks to all our support and we hope you enjoyed.

We mainly talking about Future Projects. Mark Bray had a list of about 10 possible movies/series that MB & Homeland could make in the future. He then asked everyone to vote on which one they liked best. Everyone voted for different things. The most voted project was a movie called 'Sacrifice' about Islamic State. This movie would be the first Christian film created by MB & Homeland. We have not yet decided if we are still going to make this movie or not, The name of the film might also change if we do decide to make it.

Current Plans & Future Projects

At the moment at MB & Homeland we are currently putting together a short series of 7 Episodes of Doctor Who. We are releasing 5 of those 7 episodes from 11th July - 8th August this year. The other 2 will come out Christmas Day 2015 and New Years Day 2016.

We hope this year to start filming a new series called 'Political Rage' which we hope will come out Autumn 2016. This series will start Graham Bray, Samuel Moore & Mark Bray. Filming is scheduled to begin on 'Political Rage' Sunday 31st May 2015.

Going On YouTube In June 2015
















We are also hoping to start remastering our second Star Wars movie. We recently remastered our 2012 Star Wars fan film 'The Padawan' by adding new sound effects, filters, soundtrack, lightsaber special effects and many more. We are also planning on remastered our second Star Wars fan film 2013 'The Padawan II The Return' by adding the same stuff. Remastering will hopefully begin in August and 'Star Wars The Padawan II The Return Remastered' should hopefully be going on YouTube in May 2016. A trailer will be going online in January 2016

Still talking about Star Wars, we are planning on filming a third Star Wars fan film; starting early next year, and it is called 'Darkness Of The Republic', It will go online in May 2017.

For Star Wars 'Darkness Of The Republic'
















We are hoping to start filming our own original movie late June. This movie is yet to be named. We originally began filming it in February 2013 before it was cancelled. The original name was 'Doors The Movie'. We are thinking of changing the name from 'Doors' to something else. We did plan on bringing out this movie in December 2015 before it was cancelled for a second time. Now we are bringing it back again for a third time. This time it won't come out until February/March 2016 and is yet to be named.

Nothing has been confirmed about this yet but we are hoping at some point in the near future to bring out our own James Bond fan film. From Thursday 10th January - Thursday 7th March 2013. Mark Bray wrote a James Bond script called 'Daybringer'. A cast list for this film has yet to be released but it is believed that either Tom Skinner will be playing James Bond or new member Aaron Hooper. These are just rumours. This film will probably come out late 2016, early 2017.

We are slowly getting episodes together for the next series of Doctor Who. We are currently filming our second series and are slowly putting plans together for our third series which will come out Summer 2016. We don't know yet if Samuel Moore will stay on for a second series or get replaced by someone else. The most likely people to replace Samuel Moore are Tom Skinner, Aaron Hooper or Graham Bray. Filming on Series 3 will take place later this year.
