Finally, a movie with actual effort put into it. This really felt like old school 3dmm in the techniques used. The story and characters were simple, but that's what I enjoyed. My only gripes were the lack of sound and music in most of the scenes, and I felt like you really could have used v3dmm a bit more to alter the characters. Having dudes wandering around the Old West in sneakers kinda pulled me out of it.

But really, nice animation, decent story, and fun movie!

Aw man, I specifically tried to have people wear shoes that weren't too modern looking. The only character I can think of who was definitely wearing sneakers was Travis (Salvador) towards the beginning before he switches clothes. Were there any others??

Dustin Guest · 01-20-2021, 10:27 PM

the salvador character was the one who stood out the most, but also, Jeremy in his default outfit really stuck out like a sore thumb. But, I totally get that you wanted this thing to come out in like...less than a decade. Not everyone wants to spend days just modding the shit out of everything lol

I liked this, I remember it was being hyped when I first joined.

It's one of the best 3DMM western films out there, I especially liked the modified default actors (I'm a huge sucker for those). The plot was nice, the opening shots were the most impressive. The story was engaging Rivers, I know you told me that it was boring but I thought it was the most exciting and well animated movie that you've done so far. The ending was a tad rushed, I could see that the sky wasn't moving as the character walked. The sound effect for the drill was kind of cheesy, I think you should've found a stock sound effect to fit that rather than the chair squeak.

But overall, a great movie. I like it when directors take a stab at a completely different genre than their previous works (e.g. from comedy to drama).

Nice work!

Damn I haven't seen this yet, I'll check it out then

Mr Mong · 01-26-2021, 03:16 PM

Cool movie! more sound effects needed tho and that would of been quick and easy to do i think.

Bobby Swisha · 02-18-2021, 02:05 AM

Good stuff. A bit slow on the start but it picks up. Very Quentin Tarantino Western/heist-esque. Nice scenery and directing, and I really enjoyed what character building you were able to fit in. I really appreciate little things like the old man getting shot off-camera while the other two run away, and then you just see the shot of him already dead. Also the shot of the light shining inside the planning room in the morning. 4/5

Ben Rice · 04-16-2021, 02:31 AM

this was really impressive man, full respect to you for putting as much effort into the dialogue and story as you did with the overall presentation. it was nice to see a film like this with a sense of restraint from that typical sort of humour I think we come to expect from 3dmm movies nowadays, it's refreshing in this day and age to see something like this be released and it's pretty great. your voice acting as always is on point, the wild west scenery was nicely put together and the animation really shined in some of the more subtle ways like the character movements and habits like the old man smoking his cigar during conversation. these are all really nice touches that really add to the western tone of the film.

well done rivers, I look forward to your next release

Good movie

Cubert · 09-16-2021, 08:24 PM

Really fucking liked this! Exactly like Ben said, giving the characters actual character, and playing the first half slow and restrained, was really cool

Doog Lord · 10-24-2021, 03:59 PM

Finished watching this, really cool, Old Rivers!
