Citation needed date September 2009 William Butler grew up working the carnival circuit that his parents owned and operated. When asked about what got him into acting he replied cquote Yes I wanted to work in show business and did work in show business like school plays and things around the age of 7. As I got older I did local theater. A huge turning point for me was when I was little and went to see the original Poseidon Adventure film , I remember getting really freaked out by it that the boat was turning upside down and people were dying. My parents explained to me that these people were pretending that it was not really happening. I was like you have got to be kidding me and I became obsessed with filmmaking. Between 6th grade and high school I made close to 30 films, I got into video production, story boarding, animation, sculpting and I became a hard core fan. I would write fake notes from my parents to the movie theaters so that I could get in to see rated R horror films. It really just took off from there. ref cite news author Tim Malcolm url http www.matchflick.com column 1265 title William Butler INTERVIEW publisher MatchFlick date accessdate 2007 12 16 ref Filmography Live Action Roles Power Rangers Lost Galaxy Crumummy ... name id 0124834 name William Butler Amg name 83727 William Butler DEFAULTSORT Butler, William Film ... living people fr William Butler acteur pl William Butler ...   more details
