Hi all,
It is my very great pleasure to announce that my newest movie, "2001: A Lego
Odyssey" is now playing at a website near you! It's been a labor of love, and
one of the reasons I got a digital camcorder in the first place. Of course it's
a homage to "2001: A Space Odyssey" (how timely!), and if you liked that movie,
you won't want to miss this one! It'll make you laugh, it'll make you cry,
it'll make you say "what the heck is that supposed to mean", just like you did
in Stanley Kubrick's original movie!
If interested, please visit
http://eksl.cs.umass.edu/~atkin/movies/
and download a version appropriate to your connection speed. It's a four minute
movie, so the files are *very* large, but well worth it in my honest opinion.
:) Make sure the sound is turned up!
Have a very Happy New Year!
-- Marc Atkin
P.S. Sorry for the large crosspost - the movie contains parts relevant to all
these groups - you'll see...

| Mark, FANTASTIC work. That was a work of art, my friend, and a great homage to Kubrick. Great use of the original score, including the "buzzing voices" you used for the obelisk. :) I also loved the evolution of the different bricks though the years. (...)

| (...) To make the 17th reply, YOUR MOVIE IS AWESOME! I haven't had a chance to see the original yet (although I have read the book), but your expert use of a camera, and the plotline, made it beyond words. Of course, some people cannot appreciate (...)

| (...) Wow, this is amazing, worth the time it took me to find a player that would understand it (Windows media player and Real Player 7 did not, Quicktime did.).

| Wow! Marc, that was absolutely fantastic. I showed it around and work, and people loved it. Utterly brilliant. But, I have a question - what exactly is in the silhouette picture that pops up during the monolith sequence? I thought that the point of (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.animation)
