When this first dropped I inquired as to the possibility of working as a voice actor for the film. Initial response was positive, but then communication halted entirely. Tried a couple times to get a hold of the composer for the film, the producer, and the director over the past month. No dice. I think one of two things happened: 1. They were contacted by Dreamworks, as Small Soldiers was their production originally, and given a cease and desist order. 2. The project was itself an advertisement for the production team and therefore will be receiving no further updates. Real shame, because the designs for the toy's screamed late 2000's action figures. 10-12 year old me would have been obsessed with them. Anyone remember that series of crash dummy exploding vehicles? Bright orange trim, dark blues and greens, like the Space Elite.
The fact that this promising and intruging concept for a Small Soldiers reboot has a bunch of nft-scammers as its executive producers upsets me! I only pray this project distances itself from those three, hearing about their shifty scams that would get them sued and invalid of any credibility they might've had!
You know what's worse about this there is actually good stuff in this like some background lore on some of the toy characters or why they're fighting in the first place.
I know right?? That's why I spent so much time trying to highlight the artists behind this. All thier talent and effort may be potentially wasted by terrible management!
@@Metapaloozashow2 alas, it's been a year now and as far as I know, nothing has come of it. I'm sure the artists that made this wanted this to happen as much as the rest of us, but I'm starting to think Kevin had no intentions of seeing this project through.
@@Elonyx.studios that’s a darn shame. I could tell real love went into this fan trailer. We should get people to petition for this movie to become real! We have the power to change things. It’s possible! This film idea is cool. It would be a shame not to make it! With all the garbage that Hollywood produces lately. This concept is easy buckets, right there!
This would literally be the perfect action figure game. Hypercharged didnt have the personality for units but what as close as i think well get any time soon. Theres still hope for a UE5 toy rts like action figure starcraft. I jsut love toy games
Actually I'm still alive. Sadly the booby traps in my house for the attack lawyers went to waste. I have plans for other videos, but making videos is long and hard, and trying to make em between a job, a child, and my other projects, is even harder.
I used a filter to add a CRT TV static effect. I can't afford a capture card so almost all the footage is just recording my laptop screen. It was gonna look like crap anyways so I decided to lean further into the "shot-on-shitteo" vibe.
As stated in the video, the end goal of this project is to make a feature length movie. Last time I checked, no progress has been announced on that front, and for the reasons I described in the vid, I'm very skeptical that it ever will.
It doesn't really feel like Small Soldiers anyways, from the title and trailer, it looks way too preoccupied with the military imagery of the Commando Elite. Kind of a problem when the original narrative was about corporate brainwashing of children vs the genuine world-building of the peaceful Gargonites.
Its kinda like the original. The commando elite was used in the marketing and the trailer focus on nothing but the commandos and the Name is small soldiers they tried to bait and switch
absolute TRAGEDY these designs aren't going to anything. i would have bought a PvE Hero Shooter with these designs but... FUCK ME i guess we live in the worst timeline where Trump is president again and Harambe dying caused our timeline to go to the shitter

Dreamworks should honestly just scoop up the designs through court. and then make the reboot because now there is a mutual profitable hype for it.
We live in a very, very dark timeline.
Me watching the Small Soldiers short: *Much rejoicing*
Me after watching this video: *Concerned sweating intensifying.*
And nothing of value was lost.
Damn.
Also filming a laptop screen to get Broll is super creative and i kinda like the effect.

Ahhh man I was hyped I watched the first movie with my dad but now whyyyy
I was born in the same year and I love the movie, and was happy that a reboot was happening but now not sure, but if it does come out, hooray!
Really glad you're making a video about this. Yep, it's a deceptive scam, like his NFT scam. 👍
Couldn't have made this without your diligant research!
Why DON’T they make this movie, if people really liked it? I want this to become a real movie!
Like if you agree 👍

Lol they deleted their channel 😂 DreamWorks must've finally stepped in

I remembered when I was a kid, a toy-soldier style RTS game was something I wanted more than anything. 20 years later and I'm still waiting T_T
Gotta admit I was skeptical when I first saw this, thought it was gonna be a class based shooter or something, I am tentatively exited now...
The Fact that they Deleted their Channel
Uh oh, looks like the War for the Nekron devs got to this guy. He hasn’t uploaded in 8 months 😰

@@Elonyx.studios It’s all good man, glad to know you’re ok 😊
And still its bin a year since we haven't herd any update
And still it's _been_ a year since we've _heard_ of any updates.
Did you accidentally drop this video into a vat of "make everything really blurry" juice?

I admire the guerilla style videography. Making it work. Heck yeah.
There's actually a bio of both sides did you mean leaders are brother and sister although the brother got turned into one of them
Yeah that's what meant.
Do they have plans to make small soldiers war for the necron movie?

Would be a cool movie

With that side shaved hairstyle what'd you expect?
Damn
