That shot of the giant spaceship/city is amazing. More serious original sci-fi for the people! Woo! I love the original short and I’ve been dying to see some footage from the full-lenght version.

I like when movies do this mix (The Fountain, Sunshine, etc.) Sadly, they often bomb in American multiplexes, but I'll be curious as to how this one grabs or doesn't grab the mainstream vote.

Man this pushes all the right buttons for me. Loving it. We need more science fiction like this. 2009 is proving to be a banner year for these types of things with Moon on the horizon.

It much more like Alien Nation than V! Looking forward to hearing more about this one! Wow, this looks awesome – I didn’t read the preamble until after so it almost has the feel of a documentary.

If you every see Row Three brand clips or images I will find the person who did it and remove their spleen with a plastic spoon. I hate it when sites do that.
