8 Bit Trailer

[KenTravels]

When I saw a screening of 8 Bit in Seattle a few years ago, I really, really enjoyed it. It is too bad that there seemed to be rights complications that made it hard to go for distribution. I hope that 8 Bit will be able to see the light of day again as it rightfully should.

[culturaleyes]

[DontFuckWitDreDay]

What's the name of the actual movie?

[TheGax09]

0:58 what game is that??

[3DPlanets]

Should have used a pixelated font when it said 8 BIT. Like (Windows) System or Small Fonts.

[Brockton]

Fucking Hell, checked the site for the movie, it's all out of date. No showings anywhere. So, yeah, when the fuck you guys releasing it on dvd? I'd love to actually see it.

[r00t3d0ut]

Awesome to see Josh (Bit Shifter) and Chris (Glomag) in this trailer.

[manatarms1111]

Does anyone have any information on the release of this documentary???

[FuzzyDuck]

00:42 Fuck yeah, Ed Halter!

[captainnintendo]

I can't find this movie anywhere. Not on DVD nor download.

[morfine91]

[crocz]

Magnavox odyssey doesn't have any bits since it doesn't have a microprocessor.

[shadling21]

this generation sucks, it is all based on consumerism.

[chasbo13]

[idokokaine]

[zedrein18]

That lady at the end sort of freaked me out, "Make sure the technology is interrogated"...it's a FREAKIN' VIDEO GAME!

[CRACKICE123]

[gaborsama]

HOW and WHERE can I see/buy this documentary???

[struba]

[psygnia]

i love 8-bit games, but this 'documentary' looks dumb as hell

[Bureyeanne]

I suppose we shouldn't have black and white photography either since that is old technologies.

[ThinkTekk]

I think that lady at the end is the audio technician at my school. O___o Either that or its an uncanny similarity. o.o

[SkyNinja1]

The one on the oscilloscope was the first video game ever. Tennis for Two.

[porfinlibre]

When can I watch it in Madrid, Spain?

[ESOR84]

where should I get it from?

[nrgiga]

For all the Italians: Bologna - Jan. 20th, 2008 @ Future Film Festival > 8bit movie will be screened at 5PM. Marcin Ramocki (the director), Random (Sweden) and me will be there.

[baconboyjm]

What game is at 1:09-1:10? It looks like a penis shooting at a bunch of naked chickens

[fjanton83]

Does anyone have a torrent on this one? Msg me please. I really want to see this one. Isnt it all so beautiful, that we the 80-generation has a deep connection with eachother just by hearing a theme from MegaMan2? Its fantastic! So totally abstract!

[kfant]

After this movie LSDJ's on ebay will cost even more...

[Samura1gamer]

where can i download the full movie plz?

[yourmom711]

You mean "investigated"- you can't interrogate a thing or intangible.

[InsatiableMonkey]

I got a kick out of that haha. You certainly can't "interrogate" what something means. Maybe she was trying a little to hard to sound like a pundit? Regardless, I'm looking forward to the finished product.

[chromosundrift]

Perhaps it's figurative speech. "Interrogated" is much more loaded and suggests culpability. A lack of innocence. Fault.

If you choose to include as valid only those words throughout history (especially those from artists) that are grammatically correct and and literally unambiguous, you will lose out on a lot of beauty and artistic depth.

Read Ulysses.

[LiquidChem]

ure so right chromosundrift.. That is so ILL waht you said..

Remember.. Small minds can see only small things..

We can use words however we want! What Are words? A means to communicate, well they GOT the point DIDNT THEY! They were arguing so they must have had some idea what the meaning was? Thats what communication IS people!

[SegaMegadriveMic]

The Sega Master System was my first 8-bit system

[hellixxx]

i hope you guys sell this soon, i missed the montreal screening of this picture, ahhhh

[fip25]

c64 was the first computer in my life. i worked in the school summer vacation to save enough money to buy a Commodore64 with floppy. it was the beginning of a great time. greetings from switzerland

[videovalvontaa]

Any chances of DVD-release? Im interested about this!

[TimRideout]

cool! I worked on the music for Splinter Cell 4 here in Montreal. This looks very important and relevant. Can't wait to check it out.

[Digitalguardian]

I'm confused about what the documentary is for. Is it just about 8-bit graphics and the feelings it evokes? It seems to me like theres more too it and the point is just flying over my head.

[ScottHoward]

Wow. The song in that trailer sounds pretty good doesn't it? ...I must hear more!

[r0cketcat]

I want to see this documentary. There isn't a DVD for sale is there?

[BPinard]

I saw this at the premiere at MoMa. Great documentary.

[splintercellcrash]

how about you try adding MORE.

[8BitMovie]

zing!

[splintercellcrash]

look, guyz, im a fan of the demoscene, arts, videogames... everything this movie stands for.

Trailer did absolutely nothing to appeal to me.

I won't be seeing it.

[8BitMovie]

Perhapz we should cut out the arts, demoscene, and videogames from the trailer and you'd like it better?

[cpnjack]

I'd be very wary of having demoscene AND videogames in one documentary.

[ZonkOut]

That's open-minded.

[MarkP0rter]

whats that game that looks like leisure suit larry with the fire in the background?

[8BitMovie]

Hi - That's a game by Carlo Zanni called "Average Shovelor." You can find it on the net. He made it for Rhizome.org, and he does indeed mention Leisure Suit Larry in the film. - 8 BIT Team

[kikencorp]

Loosk rocking but Im too far away to se it. Will it be sold or can we arrange a local screening??

[Minipimmer]

this looks weird but pretty cool, the soundtrack by treewave is amazing : D

[fuerio]

Yeah, but WHY use the SAME tune that was used

[droop4]

YAY for 8bit.
