    Here it comes...
    Lucas is gonna sue his ass into oblivion for this.
    Considering that Lucas' company charges 20+ million (and wayyy up) for their FX, Lucas is gonna say this low-rent prodigy will rob him of income.

    I am impressed by what this guy did on 3 C-Notes and and a brain.

    And it was neat seeing old skool, big blocky, slow moving bots invading. The 50s and 60s look for the bots was nice.

    Extremly well done. Highly doubtful of the $300 claim. The effetcs package required alone is surely more in the $600 range...

    Yeah, I found that claim kinda dubious too. Especially when you consider that he had to have needed to pay the people that ran around acting all scared and stuff in it. But it's still damned impressive.

    Pretty sweet. $300 is ehh, probably closer to $3000 in reality, but either way that's a huge jump in budget all the way up to $30,000,000!

    $300? Bullshit.

    It was pretty damn good, though.

    300 dollars is around over 5000 Uruguay's peso. So I think producer has enough money to pay the people running around.

    Pretty damn decent!! I hadn't been attracted to a Hispanic film since the death of Cantinflas!! This one could do the trick:) 

    If you don't know how is Cantinflas, here is his bio Cantinflas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
