A Pete Episode - DYNAMO DREAM

[@Crgmdrs]

The first episode was released 671 days ago, the second was 8 days ago, and the third is right now. Based on this trend, episode 4 will release in about three hours followed almost immediately by every subsequent episode. In only a few episodes, they'll arrive every microsecond.

[@AdamWebdesign]

The 'end credits' scene of Russboy becoming the leader of some group criminal gang eventually fixing up and driving that giant land-warship was impressive in itself. Love this series. I don't understand what the hell is happening but I am here for the ride.

[@Retro-Future-Land]

It's like an American Mobius tale writ into CGI. An absolute gem.

[@Tutorial7a]

Episode 1: A fascinating introduction to this world Episode 2: A breathtaking action sequence and a cosmic threat Episode 3: ...what? I cannot express just how much I appreciate the brazen willingness to make something so absurdly random as this episode in an otherwise (comparatively) grounded series. Was it real? Is Pete real? Is anything real? Who knows! Can't wait to see how (and if) this fits into the larger world.

It's so fun to finally see these patreon sneak peaks come together! And the jokes still hit even after hearing them 25 times.

[@lashtal]

It's Different... and that's what makes it Special :) The CGI is done great, it's beautiful.

It was so incredibly long since I told anyone "Have you seen this movie?!?" or "Wow, this is awesome" and to be able to have a chat about a movie coming out. Really, really thank you!

[@TheBlackBrickStudios]

I think everyone else has already put it far more eloquently than I can in saying how happy we are to have the third episode so soon, but this is on a whole other level. The entire series has been a master class in world-building, visual design, attention to detail, and sheer love of filmmaking, however this was just... Bizarre, but in all the right ways. This episode had such a charming Edgar Wright meets the Coen Brothers vibe, and it is just intoxicating. The cheese-ball acting, the random plot elements, the way it all sort of flows together with the same vibe that drew me to the old comic worlds like Valerian or 2000 AD, and more recently to worlds like Edena by Moebius, and Dorohedoro by Q Hayashida, it's just magic on screen. In a world of bland visuals, and same-y repetitive tropes over and over again in a seemingly endless loop, genuine works of creative brilliance like this give me such indescribable hope. It is not an exaggeration to say that you, sir, are an inspiration.

[@GerardMenvussa]

That credit song was amazing. It does feel good to be wanted, but don't tell the cops!
