Everyone read this on boingboing.net today, I guess: "Machinima, in case you didn't know, is a recent trend of making films and "television" shows using video games. It's an interesting area to watch, but for the most part, machinima is a form that is filled with humor and little serious content. That, however, changes with the release of The French Democracy, a political film about France's riots created using The Movies, a game specially geared to helping you create your own machinima films."

Now the whole world keeps trying to watch this film now and the server seems to be down... This must be the most-blogged item of the year or something...
