Even if the film turns out to suck, you can't help but admire this guy's dedication. I wish I had this sort of work ethic / commitment...

I have been waiting for this since I saw Killerbean 2.

I will pay to view this film.

My wife and I have watched the trailer several times and we love it. Two of our friends are also excited about it.

I don't know how you will distribute it, but remember that you have four customers willing to pay kronor here in northern Sweden!

He was the lead animator on Matrix Reloaded. And, of course, he has this film to show.

If the film-maker is serious about the time he spent on this project... this is pretty mind-blowing. I've never, ever heard of someone this passionate about anything.

Not too far off of med school plus residency, etc., which lasts roughly twice as long.

Paul Erdos reportedly worked 18 hours a day on mathematics for most of his life, writing 1500 papers in the process.

Google "Kerry Conran"

He spent a few years working on his computer making a short film to please himself. The short earned him a big budget ($40 million) to develop a feature film based on his story and ideas. The project, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, starred Gwyneth Paltrow and Jude Law and was directed by Conran.

This shows some amazing dedication, but the beans don't have any facial expressions so the emotion in their voices seem kind of strange.

Still, I'm pretty sure every kid on earth would love this movie, based on the preview.
