It looked really nice, very impressive.

I want some good PA films to come out.

I suggest to watch Children of men. It's not PA, but still one of the best movies, IMO.
 
any chance of getting that video in a non-moronic format? youtube = bad qual, .mov = doesnt touch my fucking pc.
 
Wow excellent
this movie is really great, if it would be Full Length it would become my PA favourite.
 
guilty as charged. i have realalternative, but didn't know there was a quicktime alternative.

either way, .mov is still a bloody annoying format ;)
 
I watched about one third (download of the "high qual" version broke down then and didn't want to wait since it went at abysmal speed), looks good. Better than some "real" holywoodian movies. The special effects are also well on par i'd say.

Really reminds me of Gone with the Blastware, which is a very good thing.

A few personal comments though (up til the part i've seen anyway):
1) I always found "hop up" mines a lot more scary. When tripped, they jump up and detonate between 1 meter and 1,75 meter in altitude. Fucking horrific anti-personel shit.
2a) I don't like the switching between guns in the intro (M16) & then towards the grunts (L85). Of course, this could have many reasons, but still...
2b) I dislike the L85's. Those are fucking mongrels. Next time you could either try to go with something more futuristic like the FN F2000 or the HK G36 (alternatively black Steyr AUG's). Or alternatively, you could've gone with retro guns, like the FN FAL (the black L1A1 SLR UK-variant would've fit in brilliantly!) or HK G3's. If all else fails, black Sig 550/551/552's or M14/M16's would've done well too.
(of course, I know you probably just used what was available)
 
Damn good i must say!

Hope this guy gets some connections and can release a full length version some day.

Strange that there have been so few PA movies in the past.

I can only remember a few. The Mad Max series and The Postman. Waterworld isn't exactly PA but it could be mentioned here. Anyone who know some more?
 
I watched the movie now. Pretty good looking and the plot was somewhat interesting for a short movie. I liked the vastness and emptiness of the environment. And the colours, too.

Check out 'A Boy and his Dog' it's pretty good, considering its bugdet. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072730/

L85 is awesome, even if its crap. Bullpup all the way baby
