Respectful homage to bygone era, 23 January 2007
10/10
Author: Cody Fogh from Los Angeles

These two talented filmmakers have managed to capture and celebrate the rise of the modern blockbuster in this satirical fantasy short. The audience symbolically travels back in time, especially those children of the 80's, to relive classic audio and visual moments of an era that has given way to more special effects and less character development and intelligence. Trevor and Luke managed to make a blockbuster of their own in terms of film school shorts. I'm looking forward to their next venture, whether they collaborate again or take on the industry independently. Hopefully these guys can rescue us from Hollywood's barrel scraping and bring back the goods.
