HOMEWORLD (Feature Film Trailer) --- DVD now available

[Yogsoggeth]

Burried way in the description it actually says :

For those who are fans of the video game entitled "Homeworld", I'm sorry, but our film has nothing to do with this game.

Could you just reply 'duh' to this comment so everyone else can see it. thanks...

[Yogsoggeth]

so I'm confused is this meant to be loosly based on the game or is it just the same name as?

[TAkabir]

Lol o thought it was based on the game. I loled ^^

[208Luckygirl]

This virtualy does not have anything to do with the "Homeworld" games. Aw, man...

[emperorpsymon]

Not Homeworld related, but I must say despite this I was quite impressed with this trailer. I shall seek this film out when I can.

[MonosonicJukeJoint]

Looks interesting

[mike2511]

This looks pretty cool, it does seem to have some things that homeworld the game has, and it almost looks like a film of the game.

[Natasha26]

Am afraid that graphics alone won't persuade to watch the whole film. Was it a straight to DVD release?

[rhinomotion]

I wouldn't say straight to DVD. The film premiered at festivals in San Francisco and Seattle. It also went through a rough distribution deal with a sales agent that took advantage of us. We finally made it available on DVD ourselves. With a total budget of $25K, I'd say we did a decent job, effects and all. The thing to understand about "straight to DVD" is that without millions of dollars for marketing, most films never make it to the theaters. It's a sad fact, but the way the business works.

[Natasha26]

thanks for the reply... didn't expect one actually :) I got an idea whilst reading it though, why not do what software developers do, i.e. beta testing. It's free, u could get people like me (or hundreds coz it's the internet) to give u feedback on scenes, then maybe u'd have a path like: movie -> instant hit -> bathtub filled of dollar bills!

[rhinomotion]

I wish it were so simple.

[SomeUselessGeek]

Oh, well. Something from Sierra might have been nice...

[rhinomotion]

Well, hopefully you can still enjoy our film, even though it has nothing to do with Sierra or their games.

[rhinomotion]

Hi Everyone. The DVD is now available for this film. Please see the comments for link.

[Adom]

Wish I could see more of it. I guess I'll have to wait for the DVD. You guys need a letter writing campaign (as stated on the sidebar) to get Sy-Fy to take notice, meanwhile I'll bet they're working on another giant snake, komodo or shark vs atomic dolphin movie as I type this.

[rhinomotion]

The DVD is now available for Homeworld (the movie).

[SoManySkinks]

Cool. I came here thinking it was related to the game (like everyone else) But now I'm kinda interested in seeing it out of it's own merit.

Seems there's been a fair amount of confusion about it lol

[turdreard]

dosen't feel all that "homeworldy"

but nice job anyway.

[rhinomotion]

I guess that depends how you define "homeworldy". Haha. It very "homeworldy" if you enjoy our storyline and understand how it relates to the title of the film.

[Septimus3144]

Its not meanin the game homeworld! lol

[turdreard]

wait, not that game?

I have been totally mislead....

[rhinomotion]

You haven't been mislead. Read the description. It's clearly stated that this is not related to the video game. Chers.

[turdreard]

ok.

thanks

[MrValentine2008]

I really wanna see what you did behind the scenes, forgive me if you have posted that up already i just saw this now, ill check your other posts for it now ^^ good job, keep it up.... btw whats next?

[rhinomotion]

DVD will be released in the US soon and include lots of extras, including behind-the-scenes doc. Check the website in about a month. Also, see our production company website on our profile page for a link to the next project. Cheers!

[myso2008]

low buget movies! ruin, the movie experience !

[rhinomotion]

Funny. There are more BIG budget movies that ruin the "movie experience".

[ydg2]

I agree. Michael Bay has ruined every movie he got his hands on.

[Jadranko23]

WOW! I got to see this! And I can't agree with this more: "Hollywood has spent 4000 times that and made worse movies. " I've just watched "Knowing" with Cage - oh oh, same old boring Hollywood cliché. They should learn a lot from guys like you and stop feeding tired actors and scriptwriters with millions for cheap roles and stories.

[rhinomotion]

Cheers. I hope you enjoyed our little film. :)

[MiamiBoy1736]

i like thisss : )

you guys made a good movie with only 25k.

Are you guys making another movie?

i bet its gonna be good.

[rhinomotion]

Thanks. Yes, we are working on another film. We're trying to raise money for it now. Look for Rhinomotion and you'll find us. :)

[sataricon111]

This movie had no budget what so ever but i watched it tell the end....

It makes you keep thinking and even the ending was good.

[rhinomotion]

Thanks for the comment. Tell a friend. :)

[perfect4ever15]

For a cheap budget like this i must say. this was a good movie, this movie keeps you thinking... i recomend you to watch it. however the trailer sucked compared to the movie.

[rhinomotion]

Sorry the trailer doesn't do much for you. I'm glad the movie itself was enjoyable. Cheers.

[appleleena]

I enjoyed it. Good acting, decent kinda cool storyline. Someone compared it to a movie version of "The Twilight Zone" and I think that summed it up nicely.

And $25k? That's it?? Now I'm even more impressed.

[rhinomotion]

Thanks, appleleena. The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits were a huge influence on the writing of this. Cheers.

[1tomh1]

Pretty good movie, it did show fault in a couple of bits. But with a budget like that they've done pretty damn well.

[rhinomotion]

Cheers :)

[LondonGabbaSquat]

[rhinomotion]

$25k

[LondonGabbaSquat]

[rhinomotion]

Hi. That's very kind of you to say. Did you have a chance to see the entire film?

[MikkaSingh]
