ASH IS GOING TO BE IN A REAL MOVIE HOLY BALLS

Good news everyone! I’ve been cast in a feature-length film called Must Come Down directed by Kenny Riches. Cool stuff about this project:

a.) I’m one of the main characters (:O)

b.) It’s a real good script (:O :O)

c.) It’s produced by Patrick Fugit (Almost Famous, Saved! :O :O :O)

Watch the video below and then hit the jump for more details!

If you donated/plan to donate, please let me know what name you donated under!

(I apologize that I am awkward when I’m not talking about dicks and pussies)

The video refers to the donation feature on our Must Come Down Kickstarter page. If you click on that link, you can see more videos (Like this one where I beat up Patrick Fugit), learn more about the film, and donate some sweet moola. $10,000 might seem like a large number, but if 1,000 people each gave 10 bucks we’d already be there. If the incentives on the Kickstarer page don’t appeal to you, I’ve made a list of my own:

$10 and up – I’ll take a picture of myself holding a paper with a special message just for you

$25 and up – I’ll take a picture of my dad holding a paper with a special message just for you, I will send you a candy bar signed by dad.

$50 and up – Dad and I will take a picture together with a special message just for you. I will make dad wear a funny hat. You can also have something from Anthony’s room that he left after he moved to Texas.

Anything more than that and you can get a combo of pictures, and also I would be willing to part with my “would you kindry” hat and/or my Professor Layton hat. That’s how serious I am about this movie.

If you plan on donating to this project, you’re fucking awesome, and if not, thanks at least for watching!

    You totally deserve it. I should definitely donate for this shit

  2. zlxq3000 says:

    This is awesome. I’d totally go see this in a theater just to see Ash in a professional role. I may even donate, if I have any money lying around (which there is barely a chance of, sadly); it’d be sad to hear that you gave away a piece of HAWP prop-ery (…?) for this film, though.

    • Ashly says:

      If you plan to donate, let me know what name you’ll donate under!

      • zlxq3000 says:

        No problem… Took a look at the Kickstart page yesterday; a $250 donation gets a signed copy of HAWP Season 1?… You’re breakin’ my balls, Ash… lol

        …I’d be tempted to give that much, if I wasn’t going through a ton of bullshit monetarily, and wasn’t just poor in general. :(

  3. chazzhay says:

    That’s great news! Wish I could donate but you know being 17 and money is a bit of an issue (I need a job…*sigh*)

  4. Como te fuck, I have the worst timing ever. Meh, I guess if no one reads the post here then they’ll read it there instead. Donations from both places, maybe yes possibly!?

    Anyway, I’ve been all over this since you first posted it on Facebook. I can’t wait! I’m currently broke, but if I manage to get paid before July 20th then expect a $50 donation. I was actually planning on donating around that much (maybe $35-$40) before reading this post, but I want to see Pappy Burch wearing a funny hat and so it’ll be $50 or more. Like…maybe $51? I live on the fucking edge. Of lifes.

    Anyway. Again, looking forward to this movie product. The premise and humour are both great. And also donasaurz.

  5. Daniel says:

    What I love the most about this is that she’s prostituting him pretty much right into his marriage. It’s just that charming touch of ass dickery that warms the black and hardened cockles of my disgusting decaying heart.

  6. BobSaget says:

    Could we get a sample excerpt to help entice us into donating? :D

    • Tj Nelson says:

      Yes. Soon!

      We’re cutting together three scenes from the script at this very moment! Those will be shown at a fundraiser on June 30th (tentatively) here in Salt Lake City and posted to the web immediately following.

  7. ALSmaniac says:

    I hope this works out for you, it would be great to see you in a role with no poop jokes… well maybe not as fun but still. I’m in possession of some extra cash right now and i really dont have much need for it in my current agenda. I was wondering how much it would take to get that would you kindry hat? Which candy bar is this? I would love crap from Anthony’s room (hopefully not actual crap) Is there anything you can say that would be given? But my last question is, isn’t there anyway (and how much more) you could bribe Anthony to take a picture with a message with his new wife Ashley… Burch (I love once upon a pixel) if people thought it was confusing before they are in trouble. I apologise for all the questions (feel free to tell me to shut up) but I’m just working out how much I would like to donate. Also yes T-rex is the best but I did not know it could breath fire!

    • Ashly says:

      For the kindry hat, I didn’t really have anything specific in mind. I really appreciate that you all would donate at all so I wouldn’t ask too much!

      Any kind of candy bar you want.

      He has some random stuff left over–a book that includes a short story he wrote when he was in elementary school, a Big Daddy figurine, random stuff like that. I have to double check to make sure everything is fair game and he didn’t just forget stuff, so I can give you a more comprehensive list when he gets back to me.

      I’ll have to ask Ashley, but that’s a possibility!

      • ALSmaniac says:

        Im going to have o match aiden and ask if $100 will be enough for the would you kindry hat. (and possibly the anthony and ashley message photo =3 if she agrees of course)

        • ALSmaniac says:

          If it is then what else i would actually get for the $100 would it just be $50 stuff or would i get that signed candy bar ha ha. Why do i ask so many questions? Damn i did it again.

          • ALSmaniac says:

            $250 for the signed hawp season 1 damn thats cruel ha ha.

          • Ashly says:

            $100 would be enough :) and if you’d like the candy bar I can do that as well haha

          • ALSmaniac says:

            Ha ha thanks, i will likely make the donation by monday.

          • ALSmaniac says:

            Ok i should be donating today and if its not gone or Anthony wanted it please do save that book for me. ^^

          • ALSmaniac says:

            I will also be trying to advertise this on a few sites, if i do i will post the link here.

          • ALSmaniac says:

            4 replys to my own message? Am i going for a record? Well anyway i have pledged $100 under the name ALSmaniac.

          • ALSmaniac says:

            Do tell me if there is anything else you need me to do.

  8. Bowling Guy says:

    I’m a huge fan of the show, and I’d really like to contribute to this project. I’ll have some spare cash toward the end of the month, and I think I’ll be making my donation then. But I’m curious to know, any chance you’d be willing to part with the nifty goggles from the Psychonauts video, and if so what for?

  9. Incindio says:

    !_!
    Sweet! I’m very excite for both you and the movie. Just made my donation and I’m really glad that I can help support a project of yours in such a way. I’m a big HAWP fan and I can honestly say that I’ve grown to love what you guys have managed to create. I hope the movie’s successful and that from your whole, being-in-a-feature-length-film thing, that you get more opportunities as an actress because personally, I’d go nuts if I could see you in more productions.

    Again, I’m just happy that I can finally show my support somehow and I hope all goes well with the donations. Can’t wait to get my picture and I wish you the best of luck.

    • Ashly says:

      That supar sweet Incindio :D let me know what name you donated under

      • Incindio says:

        You deserve every bit of it Ms. Burch ^_^
        The name would be Zachary Bruin, and I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the movie’s potential success.

  10. Kad says:

    I’m currently broke, myself. But this movie sounds like a great cause and after seeing the promos and stuff when you posted it on Facebook I’m really excited to see it, I hope you guys can reach your goal. I’ll definitely be donating something if I get the cash within the next few weeks. I’ll be spreading the word, at the very least. Good luck to all involved!

  11. Sean says:

    I gave a little more than $15.00, and by a little I mean 38 cents. I’d love to donate more but I’m rebuilding my computer which is a tad costly for someone who works part time at a pizza place. However, I’ve alerted my rich friends about this and they seemed very interested in the project! So yeah sorry I couldn’t donate much, but hopefully they will!

  12. Wedge says:

    50 bucks and I get a picture of two Burch PLUS some random junk from Anthony’s room? sounds like a deal.

  13. Greg says:

    Congratulation!!, just made my donation. I’m a fairly new fan of HAWP so I hope it doesn’t mean that if you make it big with this movie you leave Anthony in the dust, if so I want my 10 bucks back :) No, but all jokes aside I really hope you reach the goal and start production as this.

    PS: But wtf, is the male character’s name Ashley?? You’ll never catch a break creepy-eyes.

    • Ashly says:

      I know, right? Haha it’s incredibly confusing. Let me know what name you donated under, though!

      • Greg K. says:

        Greg Kaperski , but don’t worry about pictures messages and stuff, I’m good. Just don’t fuck this up!! It’s not often that you get a chance like this. Good luck.

  14. Scotty T says:

    I got a donation coming your way, but It will have to wait till pay day … Unless you are able to teach my cat to get a job. ;) Congrats on the role. Hope it works out for you.

  15. rawkeye says:

    Bitch I ain’t givin’ you shit.

    until like middle of july.

    Is there a deadline for the project’s seed money?

  16. Aidan says:

    Is $100 enough for a COOL HAT? I need one of those and they pay me too much anyways ;-)

  17. Mr_Day says:

    There, have $25.

    I don’t want a candy bar, though. Just a promise that a ‘quarter life crisis’ is something they made up for the film. If that really exists, I might have to murder someone, whilst shouting “Stop being so precious you vast turd”.

  18. Herbert East says:

    This looks awesome! I firmly believe that the video of you beating up Patrick Fugit should be (at least part of) and official trailer.
    I’m kind of a kickstarter whore, myself (what a wonderful way to feel involved without having to do any real work!) so a donation under Nicholas Pawlowski has been made. I don’t need any of yours or Anthony’s stuff, though. Just the pictures would be great!

    Also, everyone else here who uses stumbleupon should go to the Patrick-Fugit-Abuse-Video page and click the “I Like It” thing to try and get it some more exposure.

  19. You’ve got another $25 incoming. Best of luck Ash!

  20. Ben says:

    Grats on the good news!!!! :D

  21. Sam Spahn says:

    I donated $50. Good luck with the movie!

  22. Keenan Payne says:

    I’m getting paid today so I’ll hook you guys up with some money pretty soon :)

  23. joeker lives says:

    Congrats on the movie role Ashly! I have a two quick questions! I donated in the $100 range and are you going to be sending out the pictures and other goodies to people only associated with the heyash.com or everybody who is backing up the movie? Also, is there going to be a way where you get names and addresses or is that going to happen through Kickstarter? Congratulations again!

  24. Luke Then says:

    Hey Ashly!

    I’ve been following HAWP since I wandered across it via Gametrailers. Donna was awesome, and I’d love to support you in your upcoming movie role. I kicked in $50 mainly for the funny picture with you and your dad. I’m sure it’ll all work out and the funding will get raised. It’s bound to be awesome!!

    I donated under my name here, I’ll shoot you an e-mail with my personal info. I’m still looking forward to new HAWPs too! :-)

  25. Zoeker says:

    Oh my god! This is so awesome!! I’ll donate when I get paid(this Tuesday).

  26. Alex says:

    Hey I just threw in $10 under the name AlexanderWhit at kickstarter. I’m currently a pretty broke student but I’m pretty sure this would be worth it when the film gets made. Plus I’m already into my overdraft so it won’t cost me anything more.

    • Alex says:

      Plus I made a post on the Reddit gaming page so hopefully you’ll get more that I was able to give alone. Reddit have a pretty good record with donations so hopefully you score some dough.

  27. Spencer says:

    I wish I had money, but I’m taking college-poor to a whole new level. I can however whore this shit out to as many people as I can and I will more than likely talk about this on my podcast.

    Best of luck with the movie.

  28. Xander says:

    Pledged! Under Alexander Sargeant.

    Glad things are going well for you, and all the best with the movie! Let us know if there’s anything else we can help out with too in the future.

  29. HorseChoker says:

    Holy used underwear Batman!!!! that shit’s awesome

    I’m broke but I’ll see what kinda loose change I can find hidden around the house… I want that candy bar so fuckin bad

  30. TaylTaylor says:

    Ah, snap! I gotta say I’ve only been a fan for about a couple months now, but I L-O-V-E what you and Anthony have done! Having once been a thespian myself, I understand the difficulties involved with production. It almost breaks my heart that I don’t have anything to donate. :( If my luck turns around and get a job in time, you can expect a considerable donation! Keep up the incredible work and the best of luck to you!

    Taylor (a.k.a. Mr. T-Virus)

  31. Scale says:

    Dam..
    This is like a math exam :|

    25$ get signed candy bar atleast if shipped to the netherlands 8-)
    But then… i’d rather have ashly sign it (doubt that be a problem..)

    However what if… i ever get hungry in the middle of the night and it’s the only thing in the room haha that’s like torture!

    Well i gotta sort out some money stuff with my boss from my trip to china.
    So ill probably make a donation monday :D

    • ALSmaniac says:

      No way man that candy bar is seriouse buisness. You would have to sacrifice an animal to the gods before you even think of requesting something like that! If you dont the very earth its self may start to crumble and all because you wanted a candy bar! Or you could ask nicely, either way.

  32. Steven says:

    Hey Ashley,

    Movie looks super cute.

    I donated $10 under “Steven Edwards”. If you could maybe say hi to my girlfriend, Bri, in the picture message note thingy, that would be awesome.

    Good luck!

    -Steven.

  33. BrentDMcG says:

    I plan on donating 25-30. I was wondering that when doing so if the picture with poppa Burch can have a message of my choosing, aimed at my brother and our life long goal of taking our jokes to new extremes. It would involve the lovely quote from the Guitar Hero episode “You’re too late! Enjoy the poop!” We have gone as far as teaching his daughter to say this everytime we ask her if she has a dirty diaper.

  34. Cammy says:

    Hiya!
    I’m so excited for you and I’ve already made my donation! Good luck and I hope this starts an amazing career for you. :D
    I donated $30 under Cameron Smith.

  35. Salee13 says:

    I fell in love with Hey Ash a few months ago, and I am happy to help with the movie in any way. I donated what I could, its under the same name as here on kick-starter. Good Luck!

  36. Brododium says:

    Quick question before I donate:

    Are the gifts available internationally… like, Australia? I know that shipping costs would sort diminish the donation, so I could cover the transportation? I want every dollar y centavo to go to the filming… otherwise FUCK YEAH!

    • Brododium says:

      Also, is this HAWP gift additional to donations on the Kickstarter page or optional? What will happen to the project if you don’t reach 100% Do you refuse to take donations after the target has been reached? How silly will Papa Burch’s silly hat be? Can you sign the photograph to José Manuel Ramos-Horta?

      • Ashly says:

        Haha sure, I could ship something out to Australia! I think my incentives should be in addition to the Kickstarter ones. If we don’t reach 100% we lose all of the money that we earned :( and I think we can still take donations after the target has been reached. Haha about as silly as I can make it with what I have available. And absolutely I can!

  37. Shmiki says:

    I highly doubt that I will be able to donate, but will try my damnedest. The movie looks totally amazing, and I’ll try to see how much I can help promote the movie even further. If that’s all right.

  38. Josh says:

    First thing: Kenny looks part Asian and part Jewish. He should be able to get the funding simply through his awesome Pan-Asianjew powers.

    Second thing: your male counterpart’s character name in the movie is Ashley? Too confusing. I wanna meet Drew Carey.

    (I have just enough money for food, otherwise I’d be donating the crap outta this)

  39. James Welch says:

    Hey Ash,
    I just pledged $100.
    Also I put a link to the KickStarter page on Reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/cgrgh/must_come_down_a_turboindie_film_starring_ashly/
    Break a leg.

  40. Micke says:

    Pledged 250$. Don’t make me regret it!

  41. cotton rhetoric says:

    I donated $15 (under this name, cotton rhetoric) and want a picture of you. What do I do next.

  42. joe says:

    love HAWP
    loved revrants
    will most likely love this too
    if I donate 10$ do I get to pick what the ‘special message’ is?

    • Ashly says:

      Yeah, definitely!

      • joe says:

        I donated 26$ (if I had more money I would of donated more) under the name justjoe awhile ago
        Id prefer a pic of Ash with the special message saying something along the lines of “oh hai joe the pandorica has opened n stuffs <3"
        appreicate it, can't wait for the movie to come out, that trailer/preview/teaser/video thing already won me over

  43. Capndan says:

    Yay, I donated!
    Let’s start diggin the promo and kickstarter links to get more people!
    http://digg.com/movies/Help_kickstart_a_movie_starring_Ash_from_Hey_Ash_HAWP

  44. Matt Clayton says:

    I donated under this name; but i want a picture of you, not papa burch.
    I’m glad to see you moving up and on to serious things. Maybe this will be the starting point of a marvelous acting carrer, yeh?

  45. Ian Wexler says:

    Jesus, so many comments! Donated ten dollars! Congrats, miss! :)

  46. I pledged 55.55! Good luck Ash, I’m looking forward to your performance.

  47. Shadow_Brother says:

    Got paid today, Yay! I donated $25.52, I hope it helps. You and your brother are wicked awesome and I hope everything works out.

  48. Dead Movie Star says:

    How much to make out with Anthony?

  49. droobes says:

    Hey,

    Im having trouble to make may donation, I am form Brazil and I think my card is not international (yet if that will solve the problem)

    I am not worried about the pictures and stuff, but if i get to the U$100 range, could I ask for a copy of the movie when it is done? I doubt it will come to the screens here -_-

    (Napoleon Dynamite has never come to Brazil, Cinema, i guess there are DVDs)

  50. saxman7000 says:

    I do hope that this works out for you. Come the 30th I should be able to put another 50 towards the project. Given how many laughs you and your brother have provided to my friends and myself, it is literally the least I feel I could do. I do wish you luck and hope that it is an awesome experience!

    PS: Not that is a bother or anything but I ended up donating under another name. Email me if you wish to know what it is. I can’t wait to see it when you guys make it!
