First things first: you're going to have to watch and re-watch this. It gets confusing. Just a heads up - if you watch it two or three times, it WILL make sense. But give it time.

Produced and directed in just two days for the 2010 Austin 48 Hour Film Project, 'Zero Hour' is Atomic Productions' sophomore effort in the sci-fi genre, this time playing into the intriguing required sub-genre: timetravel.

When a team of three young men are sent back in time to stop a crime before it ever happens, their situation corrodes as suspicions arise of murder and foul play. Amnesia, dissent, and gunfights abound, 'Zero Hour' is one of Atomic's most ambitious projects to date.

Required Elements were:
Character- Vincent Lowe, Potter
Prop- Balloon
Line of Dialogue- "Why does everyone keep saying that?"
Genre- Timetravel

Directing/Cinematography - Ben Adams & Chase Arrington
Editor/Line Producer - Andrew Adams
Visual Effects/Boom Operation - Ben Haschke
Production Assistance - Michael Stettler & Alex Koeppel

We're very aware of the film's shortcomings and pitfalls- they've all been well-responded to and clearly-outlined- and we've grown as filmmakers and responded in kind to that sort of thing. That's sort of the thing, I suppose. Anyone who put even a second into looking at the previous responses would know it's all mostly been addressed and thoroughly talked-about. And while I'm all for resurrecting my own movies () and continuing conversation, that wasn't this. This guy just wants to be a snarky snob. And I'm not just saying this on my movie. Look at his other posts on movies in the cinema. I'll be childish all I want for little things like this- the movie's all but retired itself from the cinema already, we've 'been there done that'. And this guy's an ass. And the best place for me to address him as such is where, I suppose, he addresses me. So whatever.

However unpleasantly rude his comment was worded (judging from his other posts, he's got his fair share of ettiquette to learn himself), he's essentially right though. Your film doesn't work - which is why most don't understand it and you didn't win nor get your usual high ratings for it. And if you're actually that "past it", you'll know that's the case. That doesn't disqualify you as filmmakers entirely though, just renders this an effort that doesn't fully work. We've all had that and we all will have more of that as we continue to try. Heh, exactly my thought Evan.

An adequately childish set of responses to a childish post. And there is balance again in the world...
