Electroma is a meaningful story about 2 robots who want 2 be human. As you can see from the 10 minute highlight reel below, the robots drive in cars, put on plastic human skin, and then burn themselves' alive.
I can't even remember when Daft Punk's film ELECTROMA came out (in 10 total theatres). Is it still in post-production? Is it coming out soon? I know that as an electroDescendant, I must find Daft Punk to be 'authentic'/'a respected elder', but just unsure about this lil robot film thingy.
Maybe because of the Masked DJ era, it's more difficult to take a film about masked DJs who put on human masks seriously. I'm sure it provides relevant commentary on technology, humanity, and other important teen issues, but I don't know if I will ever 'get' it. Maybe it's a concept film like that one Wall-E.
Maybe I can identify with scenes like this where you feel like an alt in a mainstream world. :-(
h8 it when I go out in the sun & my face starts to melt.
SRSLY THO... who has actually SEEN all of ELECTROMA?
Do u know n e 1 who has actually sat through Electroma?
Do u know n e 1 who owns Electroma?
Do u know n e 1 who went to a [RARE] screening at an authentic movie theatre in a major metropolitan area in order to see it? Do u think they wasted ___ minutes of their lives' watching a sillie robot film?
If this film was made in the 1960s, would we have seen it on Mystery Science Theatre 3000?
When a movie has a 4 minute long face-melting suicide scene, should we take it seriously?
(do scenes like this make ELECTROMA the greatest film ever made?)
I'm in crisis, yall. Don't know how to feel about Electroma. Was it a landmark in filmmaking? Just wanna know if people have actually seen it. Have yall?
Why do all of the modern electroActs just make documentaries? Why can't they make fictional stories about themselves and their quest 2 b __________.

Yay! I think I'm going to make an HRO short film using music made by Moby. I'm an artist, and I am very familiar with copyright laws, so I am really excited about mobygratis.com. I hope there are instrumental versions of his previous hits, like "South Side (ft Gwen Stefani)."
I am also considering making my own music distribution site, where I make a lot of minimal/experimental/core-core music that is meant to be used in snuff films. Would yall be interested in something like that? Do any of yall make snuff films? Maybe if I made it minimal like the muxtape interface, it would be a hit.
I'm just always looking for ways to expand my brand, and Moby is a mrktng genius, so I might just do stuff that he does, except with my own little twist on it...

This blog post talks about the current climate of 'indie film making.' Apparently, since Avatar made so much money, it seems like generating mainstream mega hits is a better business model for studios than investing a lil bit of money in an indie film, and hoping it goes' critically viral' [via Oscar nomination].
If you are a producer of indie movies, the great sucking sound you may be hearing is Avatar draining money from your future projects. While this brilliant Pocahantas-meets-Jurassic Park mashup may be a bonanza for Rupert Murdoch's 20th Century Fox studio, which gets a distribution fee on every dollar it brings in from theaters, video stores, and TV, and its producer-director James Cameron, who gets a cut of the gross after it reached its Hollywood-defined $500 million cash break even point, it will further convince the heads of the major studios that their salvation lies in putting their money in "high value" movies laden with mesmerizing visual effects that can be simultaneously opened on more than 5,000 screens around the world and lend themselves to sequels, merchandise tie-ins, toy licensing, and theme parks rides.
Guess the era of 'indie movies financed by studios is over.'
If so how can Indie producers continue to make movies? They might be able to find wealthy individuals entranced enough with a movie fantasy to put up the money, but they still need to devise a new way in this digital age to distribute them to an audience willing to see something more than the movie versions of amusement park rides.
Do u think this means 'indie films' are dead, or will this just mean 'real indie films' will be made, instead of mindie films?
What advice would u give to a young indie filmmaker?
Is Avatar better than Garden State?
Are mnstrm films 'better' than 'indie films marketed to the mainstream as an alternative product'?
