The new Don Hertzfeldt short, World of Tomorrow, is available to stream and is amazing, as expected.

Finally, a non-Disney/Pixar animated short film Oscar nominee I've heard of!

World of Tomorrow was added to Netflix Streaming today, if anyone was still holding out.

This is actually the second time he's been nominated, the first of course being for that high-minded, awards-baity thing he did called Rejected.

It may have taken me until now to watch it, but World of Tomorrow 2 again demonstrates why Hertzfeldt is one my most cherished directors, period. I still want to rewatch the original again, but as in his brilliant Its Such a Beautiful Day, he manages to make me laugh, digs deep into my philosophical and existentialist side and is brimming with brilliant ideas about our future as humans. This is not saying the first wasn't as good as this but Im again happy to see how Hertzfeldt builds on previous installments (like ISaBD is built of the three Bill chapters).
And again I'm flabbergasted how Hertzfeldt manages to make me care about a badly drawn stick figure so much. This has probably one of the saddest death scenes I've ever seen (and it's of a small insect).

I was just thinking this was a thing that should happen

I'm excited for this just for the prospect of more wacky Hertzfeldt update messages.

Awesome news about Dan Hertzfeldt's new kickstarter. Thank you for sharing this news, Glowingwabbit! I have almost missed it.

It's the only crowdfunding campaign where I probably got my moneysworth before I received any of the "perks."

The first Kickstarter that Hertzfeldt did was fantastic. I'll set my calendar to remind me as I'm sure the various tiers will sell out fast on day one.

#19 Post by **swo17** » Tue Feb 09, 2021 7:24 pm

I just got an email that the World of Tomorrow Kickstarter is live, and it's already basically funded

Ashirg · #20 Post by **Ashirg** » Tue Feb 09, 2021 7:35 pm

That campaign is insane! Just went + $5,000 for a short 5 minutes I was on that campaign site....

Murdoch · #21 Post by **Murdoch** » Tue Feb 09, 2021 7:37 pm

Glad it's so successful. I just did the pledge that gets you a copy of the blu-ray but there's a lot of great perks.

knives · #22 Post by **knives** » Tue Feb 09, 2021 8:28 pm

This is something I’m definitely excited for.

beamish14 · #23 Post by **beamish14** » Tue Feb 09, 2021 8:30 pm

Grabbed the Rejected art print bundle for $100USD. This is insanely successful.

therewillbeblus · Tue Feb 09, 2021 11:41 pm

So happy this is a success, and the subsequent Don Hertzfeldt's emails I've been getting post-pledge have made my day

I wonder what it would take to get Ah l'amour and Genre on this release
