"I loving memory" - that's a hillarious punch!

[@TheTwosliceToaster]

In loving memory

[@VonRichtburg]

"In loving memory..." Now that was freaking hilarious!! xD

[@justafreak15able]

After watching the Fallout show this matches the vibe. Nicely done.

[@saschay2k]

A mixture of "Fallout" and "Tales from the Loop". Excellent!

[@EXOBOXProduction]

and The Electric State

[@Dandelion_Stitches]

@@EXOBOXProduction Yeah definitely had more of The Electric State feel to it than TftL. Regardless, serious Stålenhag vibes :)

[@johnmonkey1874]

Damn, was thinking the same thing.

[@Billy-bc8pk]

@@EXOBOXProduction Literally came here to say this. The Stalenhag inspiration is very apparent.

[@AweSean-wv3xo]

that's legit just the Electric State

Black mirror: Sh*t about to get real A Thousand Suns: Hold my beer

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Black Mirror used to be good, before Miley Cyrus and supernatural demons nonsense They had some great seasons, but they went for lowest common denominator pop culture BS with so many great stories they could have told instead. They sold out, and got cancelled because they replaced good stories with commercial trash. Love, Death and Robots was a far better anthology, taking new ideas and award winning short stories and turning them into animation. A Thousand Suns follows that same ideal.

[@The_Letter_J6]

Ironically, this is what I hope becomes of all things Disney.

[@schuylerhaussmann6877]

new season of black mirror was total woke cringe shit

[@64mickh]

Isn’t it amazing how Carousels always seem to survive nuclear devastation? Maybe we should make all buildings out of the same materials

[@BrBill]

I kind of feel they're like burnt matchsticks. They still look like a match, but if you blow on one, it might crumble into dust.

[@journeysands2622]

Ikr😂l

[@simonabunker]

I see this is taking full advantage of Steamboat Willie Mickey Mouse being out of copyright!

[@BrBill]

Great use of it too. At first I was thinking, "is this a world where modern Mickey was never born?" And then I remembered the Steamboat Willie copyright expiration.

[@nosuchthingasshould4175]

Came to comment along those lines, you beat me to it.

[@HaroldKuilman]

And I love it ❤

[@taraanura5942]

That's exactly what I thought. "Ohhh copyright is done .... let's mesh it with Fallout!"

[@syrusterrigan9366]

nice callback!

[@3_Star_Belt]

Beautiful. Just watched all 6 Episode back to back and love them all! Looking forward to more!

[@alman6581]

Exodus was more than a little predictable. So sick of climate nuanced stories.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

@@alman6581 Exodus was the best of the series, objectively - because it was a complete story, almost perfect in execution - predictable but perfectly executed it still perfect. Then Bug, because again, it was a complete story but lacked any emotional connection beyond body horror, which is why I rank it lower. Then Tomorrow Land, because it didn't try to tell a story - it was just a fantastical roast of the to-big-to-fail failure of a corporation that is Disney. The other two were beautiful works, but they were like when your English teacher gave you the first paragraph of a story and you had to write the rest yourself - both episodes just leave you with no answers to only vaguely defined questions - so they are just art, not stories - which is fine, but if you are rating on story telling - they are the two least impressive.

[@alman6581]

@@Beer_Dad1975 no dispute

[@merclord]

This one is my favorite. Perfect expression of the current state of Disney.

"In loving memory".... shoots fired... in the back of the head, a mercy kill. Just watched the 6 episodes back to back, those were some well spent minutes.

[@kentbehrens2814]

wonderful group of films. Please continue making more shorts. And, while you're at it, make some six- or eight-episode series' for streaming on Apple or Netflix, et al, and maybe a feature film. No, not MAYBE, DEFINITeLY! You folks are definitely "there." Thanks for the entertainment. Well done!

I watched them all too, pretty much in one sitting. tiny stories with big dreams

[@francotherox5853]

Fallout lore its getting cannon

[@Spider_Runner1324]

I don't know why this gives me the feeling of being relaxing, scary and sad, this episode combines both things that feels very strange and charming (Of ​​course because of the Fallout vibe too).

[@juliop6252]

Each of these chapters deserves its own movie.

[@ctjjsouthfl6665]

I’m clapping out loud while saying ” Well done, well done” and laughing uncontrollably. That is simply…..the best.

Okay so I am a massive fan of the series. Just watched all 6 episodes and I'm telling all of my friends about it. Hope we can have someone breakdown of the episodes in the future

The only thing I don't like about this episode is that it's the last one. More, please!

[@DrTubeman]

Absolutely brilliant, "A Thousand Suns" is a outstanding mini series every episode left you breathless and starving for more, every lover of the Sci-Fi gene would be blown away by ATS and anyone who hasn't seen it yet definitely needs to watch this series. Thank you to each and every person who helped bring A Thousand Suns to fruition and to the screen from the actors, writers, producers, directors, cinematographers, FX, best boys, grips, and all the crews involved. Tips Fedora.

[@giumetti]

A totally immersive sci-fi experience. Outstanding cinematography combined with unique and magical storytelling. Can't wait for more!

[@mej6519]

these thousand suns episodes are top notcch, each one could easily be extended into thier own 2hour 30min film.

[@kimblecheat]

Now I’ve watched all 6 - excellent 👍

[@aleksandrivanchenko6323]

The Best use of "Big Mouse" going to the public domain 🎩

[@LuisHumanoide]

seriously impressive, at first I could not believe this was a series for youtube. The nuclear bomb Cgi is one of the best I've seen, with the disk-shaped clouds, and the color, it really looks huge.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

I actually thought it was just stock footage from Castle Bravo or one of the other early H-bomb tests.

[@LuisHumanoide]

​@@Beer_Dad1975 I think they used the reference footage from Redwing Tewa to recreate it in CGI, the shape of the ring clouds in this video is more triangular, and in the original looks more spheric. However, I don't know if the clouds at the bottom are from the footage because look very similar to the original

[@dbaider9467]

Blackmilk tastes very good. Watched all these gems, some twice, some thrice. Brilliant all.

[@barrygormley]

The best compliment I can give about all of these is I want to see more of every one of them.

Perilously funny. Seriously slick. The incongruity between the song, lyrics & images - genius. Also a contemporaneous warning. Fabulous series.

[@RemiBeLo]

Fallout: Tomorrow land of Mickey

[@mirochlebovec6586]

Ok so after watching all the episodes it vent like this: a terraforming prospector, space pope, earth evacuation, space samurai, earth infection, earth wasteland. So if I understand it correctly Earth got infected with the tap water bug and then evacuated to space and than nuked to stop the infection. The prospector is looking for a new home for the evacuated people of Earth and the episodes with the space pope and space samurai show the cultures that developed on those planets. And the last episode is there to show what remaims of Earth and take full advatage of steamboat Willie being bublic domain. Is that right?

[@AenesidemusOZ]

What, an ending? And what an ending! 👏 👏 👏

This series of shorts indeed just nuked everything the Walt Disney Corporation produced for the past years. Better effects, better ideas and more story in 4 minutes than in every 2-hour Disney movie. :D

[@emgee44]

So I’ve watched all six of these short episodes, have to say they’re all top notch, really well done. The title sequence reminded me of Raised by Wolves, the quality of production is up there with Melodysheep, I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Please produce a thousand of episodes ❤

[@teleroel]

I've always known that that mouse was evil. Just look at him standing there all smug and wholesome.... Now, please make episode seven, showing what Earth might look like after mankind has wiped itself out. I strongly believe Earth doesn't care and probably will look beautiful again within a couple of centuries.

[@12spies]

I desire a full production breakdown because it's so impressive but it's better to just enjoy it.

[@robharper2078]

Apparently, Disney didn't like Blackmilk's feature movie concept and refused to finance it.

What would a modern apocalyptic piece of art be without the obligatory reference to Mickey Mouse or McDonald's?

[@LoScrittoreDivergente]

I watched all the six episodes. Please, continue!

[@mardymarvin8441]

watched the series now and the filming of them is amazing at first I thought they were a trailer for some series coming up on netflix or something. I reckon some big budget films and series could learn a thing or two from these shorts. I would love to know how much they cost and how they were done as its hard to decide if models, CGI or they did just blow up disney.

Last scene in 'Full Metal Jacket" they sing the 'Mickey Mouse' song. Scenes from the destroyed Middle East (currently Gaza) juxtaposed against the American fantasy amusement park. If the Middle East escalates to the super powers level this film short may be seen as visionary.
