# That's 50p well spent!
No doubt all created in After Effects in someone's bedroom - I recognised the Trapcode Particular explosions and teh Andrew Kramer's Action Movie Essentials muzzle fire for the guns.

# "Mockbusters"
I am heartily in favour of the whole business, not sure why.

I think it's the "I'm having fun" line.

# You'd have to be a right numpty to think their 'Mockbusters'
was anything to do with the big budget Hollywood movies they are ripping off. I for one make absolutely sure of what I'm getting before I take a DVD out from Blockbusters and I can tell if it's lame just by the DVD cover - never been wrong yet.

# I'd accept that it was fun if he made them
and put them on you tube but he's making a commercial business riding on the creativity and advertising budget of the actual blockbuster.
The trouble is, bearing in mind I've seen most of their output, is that there is nothing of value in any of them. They truly are unwatchable to the end. Well, they are for me.

# Well I do think he's having fun alright
but it's fun at the expense of the gulliable - his movies are shit because at the most he's likely only to get 4 times as much money back as he put into the project which I was quite amazed that he'd paid $250,000 for one movie. He really ought to take a leaf out of the book of the makers of the Fan Film "Hunt for Gollum" which only cost £10,000 although only 40 minutes long it's an astounding piece of movie art for the budget and totally without doubt an original movie even if it does stylewise lean heavily towards the Peter Jackson movies.

# gollum was OK
and I think that as the makers are fans of the movies then they were always going to make it fit in with the film's style. That's the sort of thing I mean though. Make a film for fun and personal achievement then give it to the internet for free.
Don't blatantly thieve the creativity of others for a commercial venture and claim it's a 'bit of fun'. It's not. It's stealing.

# Totally agree, these people are parasites
but then on the flip side of the coin - so is Hollywood. We the viewers need to have good movies but without all the commercial hype and DVDs that don't cost the earth - albeit justified in some degree by counteracting the extent of DVD piracy which would not be so prevalent if Hollywood wasn't so damn set on making vast amounts of cash leaving homegrown leftfield movies to struggle without the resources. I'd be very happy to pay the current price of DVDs if I knew part of that money was going back into helping new movie makers get started.

I like how they use the same crash sound effect 3 times in the trailer.

# The ending to that film is epic
and consists of...

!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!

Finding an "off" switch for the whole Terminator army (then for some reason standing there for a minute while the two of them fake orgasms)
