Excellent!
I kept waiting for the production of a white dove at the end. Would have made it a bit better in my opinion. Thanks Zombie for sharing. Iven

Well, I like McBride, but if your opening act is one of the most brilliant pieces of film ever conceived, you better be able to follow it.
Frankly, IMO, lousy conception, tons of missed opportunities, so-so execution. Imagine, a floating balloon. Yawn. See what Chaplin did with that same idea in the same movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9q_xpHYb47E Maybe there's something there worth working on, but I don't think that was ready for prime time.

The finale of all flags doesn't quite follow.
If he was going for a whole one world thing, then symbols of the imaginary lines which divide us, kinda flies in the face of the idea. "You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, 'Look at that, you son of a !@#$%.' — Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut, People magazine, 8 April 1974.
