I will never understand why Netflix doesn't hire someone fulltime to scour KZbin for fantastic content llike this. Then scoup them up and sign them for a full movie...

[@BLenz-114]

Yeah, hire them for the visuals and basic story then set them up with a decent writing team and a producer with some respect for the genre. Maybe it wouldn’t work but seems like it’s worth a try.

[@KhroweDontYouKnow]

Because most people on KZbin cannot handle real job. It's not like its hasn't been tried...

[@sabreone3778]

Because these are side projects. Stuff you drop 1-2 hours a day in or in burst. Going professional means you are required to meet deadlines, which is something a LOT of artist can struggle with.

[@bikebudha01]

@@sabreone3778 well, that's why you hire extra staff to support them...

[@lawichloraine]

One of the reason is that most of those concept proof videos hide poor or no real script at all. It looks cool, but its fairy dust, exactly like some crazy trailers of not so good movies.

[@ollieambience]

I know nothing about Huxley and yet this trailer gave me chills amazing work!

[@alessandrobussoletti9384]

I've been loving art of this scifi universe and characters over social media and I never thought I would see it animated, or even colored. I'm left speechless and hopeful! Great work!

[@Ben-rz9cf]

Same. I've been a fan of ben mauros since before anyone knew about him, when he was dropping his very first tutorials. His techniques taught me more about how to achieve realistic art than art school did. I never thought any of the talented, obscure insanely talented artists i followed back then would ever get the chance to see their visions turned into an actual movie. I guess with a proper decade of hard work anything is possible... you start out as a solo crew and just keep grinding until people start to notice and one day you're not alone anymore.

[@MichaelShaw1]

This looks so good and is exactly what I want to see. Congratulations to the team!

[@marimauro6114]

Huxley is now out of the box, there is no turning back…So much talent and vision. Congratulations to all and so much more to come. 👏

[@AdamMaczo]

It deserve to make a real movie with this visual design. It clould be a blockbuster. Looks amazing and there is a great story behind. Would be worth the money.

[@jensgaethje8555]

I find it always astonishing that they put years of work into this and then they fail to let the random audience know if this is a movie, when it will come out, is a sequel ... nothing on their website. They are missing out on tens of thousands of potential fans this way. So I really like this trailer, but since its unclear what the product is and where to get it , I will have forgotten about this next week. A lot of these cool filmmakers seem to be bad at marketing, or they want to keep their fan base small for some reason ..

[@iESCAP1SM]

Hey, that’s me! I have no idea what I just watched. An Unreal Engine tech demo? A game commercial? Something based off of the old books or game with the same name? We’re the robots good or bad? Veiny guy looked sinister, and prison robot was supposed to spark some sympathy, but I don’t know those guys 🤷‍♂️

[@SteveinSanFrancisco]

It looks like a movie , but maybe it's a video game... 🤷‍♂️

That antagonistic robot looks so similar to the evil one from Dragon's Heaven anime. It's rare to see rectangular robot heads.

[@Wolfsheim23]

Why is it the best project?

[@madshader]

Yeah why is this the best project? It's NFT scam garbage.

[@jothenater]

@@Wolfsheim23 It's Ben mauro has been working on it for over 9 years, is a Senior Concept Designer and Art Director 15+ years experience in AAA games / movies from the Hobbit Trilogy to most recently Halo, its the world’s first graphic novel released in the NFT format, is currently being developed into a feature film and TV series movie produced by Arad and video game that will run in unreal engine 5, has partnered with @wilderworld for an exclusive holder-only metaverse experience built in Unreal Engine 5.

[@Wolfsheim23]

@@jothenater That all doesn't make it the best project out there. NFTs are not good in any way I've seen yet. The whole concept just seems sleezy. The movie, comic, promises I've seen all that hype building before. The only truly original amazing talent here is The Artist, Ben Mauro, his style is kinda like Mobius which is great, and I like the sci fi style of Elysium. But nothing really unique to see about the game yet. If it's something at all like Prey I'm totally down. If it's more of a shooter like Halo/Destiny... not so much.

[@jothenater]

@@Wolfsheim23 True it doesn't make it the best project but I think it more than bumps it above "NFT garbage" (I know it was the other commenter who said that). Regardless, I think my aforementioned points make it a promising project. Personally I am excited for the metaverse aspect this project is building with wilderworld.

Edit: I said it felt inspired by Dragon's Heaven, but given the NFT association it has, it's probably just a flashy rip-off. Bummer.
