That's kinda fun, and it looks like you had fun making it. Good work. :keen:

Also, the keen emoticon isn't working at the moment. Just know that "AnimeDude getting stronger and ripping his shirt" is supposed to be Commander Keen giving you a thumbs up.

There are definitely moments in movies where I find myself saying: "They looked like they had fun making that." I think that comes across in movies and its really cool when it does. Not enough filmmakers have fun IMO.

Nice circuit boards!

Also, it's really awesome that you used actual film. That's pretty cool.

Yes, my archaic interests extend beyond old computers and dos games. ;) It's a lot of fun, but a little nerve-wracking wondering if the scene you spent time on was too dark or too light. Even with a light meter you can still screw up. (I'm sure you saw the underexposed scenes. It was supposed to be a dark place, but it's a little too dark.) With only 4 mins of filming per reel, you've don't have a lot of room for retakes either.

I've got one more I just need to edit (this time digitally), and one in the works.
