If I was in this world, and I had no superpowers, then I'd better be Batman. More specifically, DKR Batman, Frank Miller's (everyone sucks but him) Batman. Because that is the only way I'd survive.

They must have worked really hard to make this, but my God, I did not like it. No, I thought it was dumb. I won't complain about the effects (that's not the point), but the dialogue was dumb. Stupid. Man, short films don't need to be dumb.

This concept was cool the first time... when it was an episode of Darkwing Duck.

I'd rather see it in Spanish with English subtitles.

@mgeoff88 Two first names (nombres) and two last names (apellidos) are common in Latinamerica, usually the second of each one are rarely used, some singers use just the two first names. If your mama call you using both of your two first names... means troubles.

"I'd rather see it in Spanish with English subtitles."

Those were my thoughts exactly. Or have some english speaking actors. The concept is definitly interesting.

Fantastic short film. Really great effects and loved the lens filter as well. Wish they'd use that filter on more movies.

Sounds like the plot to the "Codex Alera" series by Jim Butcher, but in modern times.

Wasn't bad, great effects, incredible music, good acting, bad ending, but youtube suggested me this afterwards, and it's way better imo

Didn't care for Singular. It looked great, but the story was pretty weak.
@AXE's suggestion of ENVOY was MUCH better.

Damn the Orozco family, my family, knows how to make a cool short film
