My name's Troy Benjamin and I like boats, but not the ocean. That's not true, but Phil told me it was... anyhoo... I'm the geezer around these parts who yells at you for running and hits the ceiling with a broom handle yelling to keep it down when all you're doing is watching TV. As Indy said, it ain't the years it's the mileage and after 12 damn years of running the old Ghostbusters HQ website, I've decided to slow things down and enjoy fandom for once instead of looking at it as a job. Plus, I'm one of those bozos that packed up the wagon and headed out west looking for celluloid gold and actual found a little bit of mica - mica that works you to death but still lets you create a cool project from time to time. Check out some of my work on the Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season One Blu-ray Disc, Transformers 2 Blu-ray, Alien vs. Predator: Requiem Blu-ray, Freakazoid Seasons One and Two, X-Files: I Want to Believe, and I'm currently working on a giant box set about space pilots who get terrible cases of indigestion that ends up hunting them down and killing them... go fig.
Drop me a line if you're lonely and need a friend, or if you need to be talked out of the Hollywood life. I'm more than willing to respond to both.
