Electric State by Simon Stalenhag (Retro Future Sci-fi Short Film)

[@krzysztofflorjanski251]

Couldn't say it earlier, I'll say it now: incredible, seriously, especially that scene with giant machine and a robot on a road, because of those people falling from that embankement and a filter, it really looks like it was actually recorded by someone with private handheld camera in 1997.

[@Berkay-Tunali]

thanks bruh for sharing your invaluable reviews. It means a lot!

[@riddlemethis2610]

See now this is what the Electric State movie should have been. A slow, low budget, quiet story filmed across an Ireland/Iceland landscape with beautiful imagery to create a real sense of atmosphere. Kind of how they made that movie "The Creator". Not whatever Marvel styled action-comedy Netflix decided to make with the book's title slapped on.

[@YankeePendragon]

Since the publication of the original art book, I've seen quite a few beautiful - and downright terrifying - shorts and takes on the source material. This one is the first that touches one of the key undercurrents of the book: the sense of nostalgia in the face of a collapsing society and a transformation of what constitutes "humanity". Its beautiful, sad, and truly poetic.

[@paulreynolds2569]

This short film including the soundtrack really should have been the template for the actual upcoming film, soon to be released. Excellent! If there should ever be a remake of the film later, Berkay Tunali should be the director and producer.

[@Berkay-Tunali]

wow bro, thanks for your trust. This was no budget work but If I can find enough budget or time for the next project I would like to create something related on Simon's world but in a better regenerative and sustainable future world in the solar punk genre.

[@paulreynolds2569]

Maybe a crowdfunding effort to garner support for a film, should Russo Brother's film version of the story bombs? I hope the Russo brothers do justice for Simon's work on this. If not well receieved, it will make me think of the first "Dune" movie(which is a cult favorite of mine!). The idea of a remake got kicked around for years after the first release, before a really good remake was released by Denis Villeneuve. The newer version is more true to Frank Herbert's concept of Dune. I did listen to most of the album "Derelict" from Carbon Based Lifeforms, out of curiosity. A lot of interesting music/art out of Sweden(and Norway), partly my ancestral grounds(my late grandmother). Godspeed, if you pursue a film endeavor!@@Berkay-Tunali

This is the reason why i love people animating stalenhag's creation

[@dannyd464]

Better than the Netflix adaptation....🙁

yes.

Ngl I had high hopes for Netflix… until I saw that first preview 😢

Truer words couldn't have been said.

[@bobboland8505]

I HATE NETFLIX NOW!!

[@ksen1011]

Always wanted to see Stalenhag's work brought to life. You did an awesome job 💛

[@ohnowhy700]

Same! They have so much potential and hauntingly beautiful.

[@xxx7917]

Tales from the loop is a series on amazon

[@jenniffermiller6205]

This needs to be a movie asap

[@sukhoy]

it is on the making

[@Fabulousprofound168]

Russo brothers are currently filming it with Millie bobby brown as lead. Supposedly coming out in 2024

[@terryflynn6927]

It's based on an art book. They captured the imagery very well here.

[@culan_SCP]

coming out soon 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@reneebabikow9012]

it's 2025

[@KavinScottStudios]

A MASTERPIECE!!!! this is what we could've gotten if Netfilix didnt ruin it....

[@Panzerkampf1939]

I've rewatched this video a good 20 times by now and it keeps getting better every time

[@ISplimeI]

NO WAY this is seriously impressive man!!!!! I'm actually kind of scared as to why you have so little subscribers because this is something else! I can't even begin to imagine how this was made or how long it took! Fantastic job bringing this stunning art to a whole new plane!!

[@testchannel8151]

This looks GORGEOUS

[@jurgenvermeulen5355]

Indeed it does!!

[@testchannel8151]

[@mushroomfrenchspores]

now see that's the kind of stuff I would've loved to see instead of whatever netflix if trying to cook up with the russo's, here you can feel the dedication to the source material and not something else disguised as some action trash we're getting instead on the big screen! Anyhow great work man keep at it!

[@HudsonHallam]

This is is one of the most amazing things that I have ever seen, tgank you for doing a perfect job of recreating Simon Stàlenhag’s work

[@PacificRimWeb]

This is really good! I absolutely love The Electric State, I think this was really true to the book!

[@chaoticmultiworld2341]

Nice work this is impressive

[@LucasNi-g2h]

This should be the trailer of the upcoming Electric State film. It's really cool!

[@TheMindverse]

Simply amazing. It gave me a strange, deep emotion I don't even have a name for...

Just bought the book , broken homes are a part of our gen x lives , reflected in the pages. Thank you Simon

[@JohnVance]

The book was fantastic but so sad, I wasn't expecting it.

[@jwede99]

Love they used Carbon Based Life Forms as the background music. 😊

[@10C45E]

This is what I wish The Electric State movie was going to be!

[@TerrainbyAaron]

Love this. Captures the books perfectly

[@_5urrendered]

Wow this is REALLY well done, you've managed to capture the essence stalenhag's work in this. You've got some real talent!

[@siddplayz3820]

FYI:they are making a movie about this and chris pratt is there

[@HanzalahWidimulyono]

Bro those vr people are like charge zombie in L4d2 ☠️

[@mswkickdrum]

I think the new movie is going to be too xmen marvel etc and not enough blade runner 2001 oblivion. This short is probably going to be much closer to the books intention and better over all.

[@krisloaf]

Tales from the loop inspiration going crazy 🤣

[@josef.ramoss.8457]

Bc it's same author

[@krisloaf]

@@josef.ramoss.8457 i know thats the joke

[@Jin-Hu]

Yep, you nailed the feel 100% great work, love to see more

[@Bod8998]

The book the labyrinth is amazing amazing.this video is class aswell .the music well on par.

[@dragonluvver975]

This is incredible!! The best version I've seen anyone do with this project so far. It must e super exciting knowing about the Netflix one now

[@Archiewinter920]

I got the art book, amazing visuals and it deserved a purchase. This vid is great too!

[@Berkay-Tunali]

Glad you like it!

[@number1mouse]

That was well done!!!!

[@josef.ramoss.8457]

I will lie to myself that this is the trailer of the movie

[@Theheadofachicken]

Electric state would of been a better show than tales from the loop (Free on prime video) change my mind.

[@Username_the_cheese_eater]

IF this was a full movie. i would watch it over and over.

[@ss-oq9pc]

Netflix is doing a movie on it, comes out in 2025. Theres also a new ttrpg that just came out based on it, but I haven't heard great things about it.

[@Kazooples]

I was gonna say “this reminds me of tales from the loop”, then I realised it’s the same artist

[@matgrades]

I love this artwork!!! Great concept

[@derrenleepoole]

That was sick!

[@Random-m4q]

Looks better than the actual movie

[@connormarchand6302]

It’s not out yet !😭

[@gubaguy]

What could have been...

[@victorespada_]

very intersting!

[@mixo_pl]

Let's hope that Netflix is able to make it feel like this

[@glennglennsson2739]

the Netflix movie is dead on arrival. It has nothing to do with the original artwork

[@photorooster8865]

Reminds me of the Show Tales from the Loop, although short lived, I liked it. I hope this sees completion.

[@LordBakon]

Tales from the loop was originally made by the same person who made the electric state

[@darwinskeeper421]

I know just enough about Stalenhag's work and the book this was based on to be impressed.

[@sisterstate7216]

One way to achieve what the woman speaking desires is to never leave the place you love in the first place. Perhaps the element that leads to the unwanted changes is that people who are unsatisfied leave for a period of time to gather themselves rather than staying put and working for change.

[@sauraplay2095]

Amazing!

[@juggins95]

Interesting use of the Illawarra region for the final 'live action' section - what inspired that choice of location?

[@Regelos]

Is this where that new movie comes fromv

[@Ostermond]

Immediately superior to that Russo Bros slop.

[@adamgilligan3688]

We seek meaning through others work, we seek validation through others opinions, we seek praise for others failures and we seek immortal from an efemiral existence. Let us not be betrayed by our own Dream😢

[@JuicyBurger29]

I’m so sad this isn’t a full movie

[@hobaca1465]

This is far superior to the Russo brothers' trailer. It captures the rawness.

[@Ramansdo3s]

Wow!

Well done . I often wonder if satalengag 's. Mechs are static and decaying or dynamic. . P.s. Are you a kiwi ?

This is cool music I'll have to read the art book

[@wa-bu3ke]

The movie doesn’t have the right soulless vibe

[@HuxleyCrimson]

Too much talking. Doesn’t add to the incredible visual / musical experience that stands on it’s own, au contraire. Cheesy sentences all the more. Let’s hope this will not ruin the pire suggestive beauty of Simon’s work.

[@krayoxtv8331]

boring isnt it

[@15clank]

It feels flat
