Title: SHORT FILMS MEGATHREAD - Share sub-30-min films and/or your thoughts about them
Post by: Triad on April 02, 2024, 06:57 PM

Over time, I've come to appreciate short films more and more. Many great directors got their start with a short film, and it's not surprising; it's a fantastic way to showcase a filmmaker's unique style and vision. I decided to start this thread for sharing intriguing short films, discussing them, and discovering the community's favorites.

I'll start with Slaughterbots (2017) - A Black Mirror-esque short film in the style of a CES 20XX presentation.

I think, in real life, we can easily create countermeasures for such "slaughterbots", but I still enjoyed this short film as a rhetorical device and a cautionary statement.

La jetée (1962) - The best powerpoint presentation you can watch, and the short film that inspired the cult classic 12 Monkeys

I meant to post to this sooner, fan of short films here too!

This is one of my favourites, I'm a HUGE fan of sci-fi, especially if it's aliens or disaster end of the world type films:

Didn't expect to see so many movies in just a few days. Just watched the last three, we got great variety here. :) Keep posting boys. I'll also a share a sci-fi one:

Mis-Drop (2013) - Sci-fi found footage; how I imagine your average foot soldier's life in Halo universe. I love the squad banter.
