So cool submitted by hcf on July 25, 2014, 1:59pm So cool

Animated? submitted by markwells on June 19, 2016, 12:06pm Apparently this was filmed with real actors and then animated which gives it a unique effect, especially for the time period in which it was made. The subject matter is quite "heady", which made me think...and that, I suppose, is a good thing. I really enjoyed the soundtrack too. Not for kids. Grade: A-.
