it has been a while since we last hit you guys up with short films and so here’s one that we think that’s worth every seconds of the five minutes of your life. titled ‘Johnny Express‘, the short sci-fi (yes, of course, it is sci-fi) follows a super lazy interplanetary delivery man on one of his delivery trip (who also used to be the Best Delivery Man Of 2150) and how he, due to his incompetence, managed to fail the delivery and also in the process, annihilates an entire alien race. if you love well crafted animation and love comic stuff, you really shouldn’t miss Johnny Express. there is little plot to talk about for something that’s just a little over five minutes long, but all we can say is, it is simply hilariously entertaining. created by a dude by the name of Kyungmin Woo of Alfred Imageworks, a CG animation and motion graphics outfit based in South Korea. check out the video after the fold.

THE FLYING MAN – A Superhero Short Film
we don’t usually post shorts or trailers here as we have already directed them to our Twitter, Facebook, and Tumblr page instead, but this particular sci-fi superhero short film by Canada-based director Marcus Alqueres is not to be missed. Marcus is a visual effect person and among his portfolio include A-list feature projects such as 300, Source Code, Rise of The Planet of The Apes, and The Adventures of Tintin. anyway, THE FLYING MAN is a short flick as envisioned by Marcus Alqueres that depicts a superhero as a vigilante and the ensuing impact and ethical debate with regards to his acts. can justice be served without judgement? or what he did is no better than the criminals that he has persecuted without judgement? you decide and to do that, you have to catch this very intriguing piece. it is definitely well worth the watch. if you like District 9, Chronicle and Superman, then expect this to be mashed up of the three (cinematography-wise, that is). awesome is what i can only used to describe this short. check it out in the embedded video below.
