Extremely misguided to split the focus of a documentary in the first place. I would be very concerned about the quality of this given your poor decisions but luckily you are working with a subject that doesn't require good filmmakers to make interesting.

The balance between Nick and the flood has been extremely difficult to manage. We couldn't ignore it entirely (we were living in a disaster zone and constantly carrying camera equipment!), and the best way to thematically integrate the flood into Nick's story eluded us for quite some time. We hope you and all of Nick's fans will be pleased with direction we finally decided to take.

I'm sure many of you are becoming frustrated by the film's delay, so here's an update to let you know what's going on. After much careful consideration we have decided to re-edit and re-imagine the film to remove nearly all of the flood content, leaving us with a documentary that is almost entirely about Ulillillia. The resulting film will be much more interesting and offer a better glimpse into Nick's world. We like it, Nick likes it, and you'll like it better, too. We will keep you posted.

Will you release another cut with the flood footage in it?

[3verythingWorks]

In truth, the new version of the film will still include some flood footage, but it will just be less of a focus than it was before. Originally the film included numerous interviews with flood victims, basically making the film half about Ulillillia and half about this flood. After feedback from test audiences, we decided that the flood should be more of a backdrop to Nick and the interviews and narrative should should be about him and his world (which occasionally involves the flood).

This really really needs to be released. This is becoming ridiculous.

[3verythingWorks]

You are correct, this needs to be released soon. We're sorry for not making an announcement earlier, but we are currently undertaking a major change to the film, and this has caused the delay. After much careful consideration we decided to re-edit the film to remove the majority of the flood content, resulting in a doc that is almost entirely about Ulillillia and the world through his eyes. We think the film will be much better, Nick is very excited, and I'm sure you'll like it better, too.

I CANT WAIT ANY LONGER MAN, JUST LET ME GIVE YOU MY MONEY.

GET HYPE.

[forgotaboutbre]

Seems like you guys are really bungling up this documentary. Live and learn. Next time you should just go straight back and get more footage and really try to get a well rounded look at this cool cat's life. Nick Smith is a pimp in his own right. Do him justice!

[IHATETHIS100percent]

He has OCD

[takeahint123]

of course he's autistic

[coreymaggette]

In all honesty, what's wrong with ulillillia? He must be autistic...

[DeoMachina]

I trust in your judgement 3verythingworks, I hope to see the results soon!

[joefreeman856]

It's funny because I thought Ullillilia was German

[bitbytech]

Any updates... anything?
