Chinese New Year – Nian

That was adorable! I got a book of Japanese mythology earlier this month, now I want to get one on Chinese mythology!

 

In my first post to this thread, I mentioned how sometimes Hollywood takes a short film and unnecessarily decides to make it longer. But I would be interested for the following short to be adapted and expanded upon:

 

Title: The Candidate

Genre: Drama

Runtime: 20:04

Description: David Karlak’s “The Candidate” explores what happens when the dark thoughts in the back of our minds are given a voice and worse — power.

A similar setup to Coherence, one of my favourite sci-fi films, this one looks at relativity rather than multiverses:

 

Title: Flyby

Genre: Sci-Fi

Runtime: 13:22

Description: When a passing asteroid begins to affect how people perceive time, one man struggles to keep up.

Title: System Error

Genre: Sci-Fi

Runtime: 13:12

Description: George wants a friend. Maybe if he just tweaks his code a bit...

What is the format for adding a video?

Thank you for the short film posts, Nick!

"If Pete wants any chance to escape the temporal trap he's in, he's got to change his attitude fast -- or else risk being killed by his own desperate, cornered self." Got me thinking! I only watch short films every now and then, but this one was awesome. Thanks, Nick!

Yes, I think they fill the criteria. Although since you need a Netflix account to watch them it's kinda difficult to put them here.

Genre: Sci-Fi Comedy

Runtime: 5:40

Description: James has a one-minute time machine and decides to use it to try and ask out a girl...

Still Life 

A pill-popping, over-caffeinated driver accidentally hits something. Panic-stricken, he searches for help in a strange and desolate town that offers very little in the form of human kindness.

8:49

This is pretty old, upscaled 360p is the best I can find.

Thing about putting up netflix shorts is not everyone is going to be able to watch it.

 

But yeah, definitly watch love death and robots if you have netflix.
