Well worth a watch... One of the best disaster films yet.

Stop-motion animation, done entirely with Legos:



'80s games are coming back, I guess.

Phillips Parallel Lines Competition.

Make a movie with that dialogue:

The others that have been released:







I think Visionary should make an animated one with his art starring Parodyverse characters.

Parodyverse for the win!

What is that?
It's a unicorn.
Never seen one up close before.
Beautiful.
Get away! Get away!
I'm sorry.


Personally, I like seeing it without knowing what they are saying, even though the general idea comes through. I also like the mystery of the piece... Sometimes I'm annoyed by experimental films when they create a world that doesn't seem to make any sense without a great deal of explanation that we, the viewer, aren't given. Here, the motives are a mystery, but the story is fairly coherent... the box is valuable, and nobody seems to want the police state to have it.

In any event, the "Heat Vision" blog over at the Hollywood Reporter says :

"On Wednesday, the day the short came out, a bidding war broke out between several studios -- longtime rivals Warner Bros. and Fox are in the mix, according to sources -- who see feature potential in the short. Some speculate the project will end up at Fox, because Rinsch is part of the stable of RSA, Ridley Scott's commercial house that produced the short, and Scott's longtime association with Fox."

I suspect the studios are looking for the next "District 9", which was based on the short "Alive in Joberg", launching Neill Blomkamp's career.

Someone really took the Unicorn tie in from "Blade Runner" and ran with it for that world.





I would likely have to learn animation first, which might be a bit of a hang up on making an award winning film.

However, it might be fun sometime to do a PV story version of the challenge... Come up with some lines of dialog, and then have everyone write a story that has to use all of them, or even only them (kind of an unfair challenge to those who like to work in script format only, however...)

Sounds like a plan!
