CARGO - Tropfest Australia 2013 Finalist

[Cykotic]

So, on one of my regular visits to io9.com, I discovered this short film from Australia called "Cargo".

Basically a guy is determined to get as far as he can, but has one thing he needs to do first...

I've had this on my "Watch Later" list for months and finally got my arse around to watching it - bloody nora! A top short film, that! :stunned:

Right in the feels, as the Internet likes to say ... the 'donkey/carrot' idea was a masterstroke, and it just punched me in the feels even more. Pin sharp efficient storytelling there, going right for the gut to tell an emotionally engaging (and impacting) story in 7 minutes. Superb stuff!

That was brilliant.

So how the freaking hell do you explain all this to the kid when she grows?

Do you think Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Maggie" will get this emotional?

[Trencher]

This short film was awesome. I doubt the Maggie movie will be as good since it probably is going to be in the vein of warm bodies.
