Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

This has been the most difficult film I have ever made, because its meaning is very true to my soul. For too much of my life I have been a mindless consumer of time. Hopelessly placing value in things that never gave an ounce of value back. Now that I am older, I worry endlessly that this new generation is making the same mistakes I now deeply regret.

In the end, I hope my message is honest and clear. Whether you agree with me or not, please share you thoughts, spark meaningful discussions, and share this film with everyone you know.

Special thanks to all those who have been my strength - and to all of you for taking a moment to open your minds =)

when the relization kicks in.

This was a great film its just a bit sad that players have to have something that threatens there out of game life to make them see just how much games have taken over their life. Like, a relation ship issue or the lack of skills required to make it in the real world. Thank you for making this insightful film.

nice video. i see it

yeah i like it all and really get you. even though im not old enough to experience the high points of life i can still see where you are going. im sorry you overweight failure

I couldn't agree more

My past 3 years(2005-2008) i have played a bunch of video games, just say a name and i will respond yes.... And during those three years i lost my girlfriend because i wanted higher levels in my games and also gave up my friends and social life....

It didn't last long (thank goodness) because i had a breakthrough like yourself, so i got back up on my feet and sold every game i owned and console except the PC, and i was happy when they where gone! I also managed to get my ex-gf back to talk to me and now today we are engaged =D

Your short movie is truly from the heart and i will spread the word.

Thank you for uploading this movie :)
