In short, whereas we do remixes with our computers and release them for free at RKO or on CD, these guys did a full length scifi movie and distribute it in the web and on DVD. Just took them seven years to complete. And it's actually pretty good, with orchestral soundtrack and cool CGI effects.
The downside? It's in Finnish. Luckily, it's subtitled for the fenno-linguistically (not a word probably) ignorant people among us
Time for me to put together the 8 foot spider from my parents attic and start making that Forbidden Forrest-movie/parody I've promised everyone will see

The sheer scope of the thing is pretty incredible for something that was done for pretty much nonexistent budget. The final cut of the movie runs over 1:30 and on the DVD there are few deleted scenes and a making-of documentary which is actually even more professional looking than the movie since it was made after the actual movie was finished

It opens on November 25th over here. As soon as pre-ordering is possible I'll order myself at least a ticket for opening night and one yet another one to take it in again a few days later.
Oh well, I still have the Firefly box set to keep me company until then.
Just watched the Starwreck - I'm amazed! The space fights are on par with commercial productions like Star Trek. The sets look a bit cheesy but that's fine. The story is a great parody of tried and tested space opera plots. And I had some great laughs!

If you don't want to have any laughs grab the Star Wars one. That's just so bad it hurts. Possibly because it's taking itself seriously.
Unlike the Firefly spoof one, which is a riot. (right, Infy?)
