FAT MONSTER FILMS presents "O2" ... Every. Breath. Counts.

I was dying to see this project come together... and WOW it turned out great!

Having witnessed some of this production... I raise an eyebrow at any comments about budget, because a lot of people equate spending a couple bucks with a guarantee of quality results, which is constantly proven wrong in big screen features.

It takes a lot of planning, hard work, sacrifice, and personal dedication to make something great. I've been behind the scenes on some really high-budget projects and I've never seen a higher level of dedication to the production.

What you did with the tiny budget is amazing... You guys deserve a lot of credit for raising the bar... and I don't want anyone to think that was an easy thing to accomplish...
 
i did notice something on a 2nd review of the flick...
when the husband lays the wife on the table, he takes his hand from behind her head, and lays her down, then the next cut he does it again. (minor, but i tend to find these things)

Still Epic in my mind!

Great Job the Dude and Co.!

SPOILERS!!!
After watching your film a couple of times there are a couple of things that I have to point out that you could have taken from excellent to perfection (in my opinion) The light from the welding wasn't hitting the floating actress, but seemed to light up behind her. It's kind of like when there is a muzzle flash from a gun but the persons face doesn't light up when they shoot it. Also when she stabs him with the needle, she never pushes the plunger in. SO NOW after all my negative critiques on your film, I will give the positive! The acting was phenomenal, the story was excellent and unexpected, the set was breath taking, the ship was awesome, in fact I wanted to see more of it! Like if you guys had a few more months, I would have loved to see the meteor hit the ship from outside! The score was right on! Cinematography rocked! The opening dolly shot was awesome, as was the closing (boom/dolly or steady cam, I'm not quite sure) shot. The sound of the freighter hailing him just sealed the film up perfectly.
 
Mark and team, great job guys, I honestly thought I was watching one of those sci-fi shows on cable tv, great technical and artistic work, three thumbs up...

...the plot reminded me a bit of another movie called "stranded", it's an european flick.

awesome work mark!

Where'd the bar go? Oh LoL. It's been raised beyond line of sight.

I just got back in after a 5AM call time (snore) and just wanted to pop in to say that this was a massive team effort (less from myself though) and everyone here did pretty good. Luis gripped it up and Matty pulled focus in a situation I openly bowed out of. That's a tough job man.

Stop having parties and write a feature please.
 
You know I was waiting to give any reviews till seeing everything at least twice and making sure that 2nd run really examined it, but I just have to stop in and give a first impression - HOLY CRAP FAT MONSTERS!!!!! ****ing amazing. The entire FM crew should be extremely proud of this. The great part was that there wasnt one element (lighting, sound, camera, story etc) that made it what it so great. Everything just melded together and made one freaking awesome movie.

spoilier - like Simon said above the radio contact at the end just sealed it up. Was totally expecting this to go a different direction but I loved where it went.

Nice work Monster crew you all are a defnite inspiration and have raised the bar yet again.
 
Wow! Your production values are off the chart. Kudos to your whole team. Very impressive.

Wonderful story, sound, acting, editing, score. It's all good. Nothing to say but praise.

Congratulations.
 
i'm speechless. wait, no.... breathless.

That was freaking awesome. SO awesome that I am making it my personal mission to destroy Fat Monster forever! (either that or finagle my way into their never-ending parties).

Production values are awesome on this and the story is incredibly well thought out. It definitely felt like I was watching one of the better shows on the sci-fi channel and pulled me in completely. So thanks for the good show and complete suspension of disbelief.

Now it is time to plot your demise... (I would plan a party but there's not that many Toronto DVXUsers it would seem, so on to plan B)

so basically, we can all thank Kholi for such a great film. :evil:
 
Thanks to everyone that has taken the time to watch and stop by with a review.

Mark, we missed you last night at Luis'. I think Luis has got to be the most gracious host I've ever met. He had the "big screen" set up and a packed house. We watched ALL the movies. Sara got us home around 4:30 am. I don't imagine there are any signs of life yet at the Monster Shack.
 
Blaine, I can say that both Bullis and I wished we were there. We had our own little party in the Oakland Hills with suitable beverages and accoutrements. Still, we were sad monsters to miss the chance to relieve Luis's fridge of his beer and to enjoy the never-gets-old frivolity of spraying his cats with hairspray when he isn't watching. (do they ever jump).
