"Why do you have to quote others when you can quote yourself?" (Quote by me)
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God.
You see things, and you say 'why'. But i dream things that never were and i say 'why not'.

Congratulations!

You know, that will really pay off later in life when you go to college... especially if you pursue a career in film.

Yes, well done. I second SeaRex's sermon. What were the costumes made of and how did you make them?

Thanks, Sorry I did not reply so soon, I was out camping. I will answere the questions.

Joshy, I have no Idea where the name 'Nhoj-Tan Productions' comes from, It just came to me, a bit like Steven Spielbergs 'Amblin Entertainment', or 'Oddworld Inhabitants'. The reason the trailer is so short, is that the film was only 4.10 minuets, as the limit was five minuets.

SS, The main characters are puppets, and I got them in Orlando Florida. I am sure that they do costumes though, click on the following link to visit their web site:

Thankyou,
Fuzzle Guy

This thread has died out , anyway, got some more news, After the Sucsess of 'Joe & Gramps' a second one is currently being made for the BBC. It will include two or possably three new chacters, but will not be including 'Jimmie the Bird', who was a well loved and favorite character from the first.

I think it will do well, but I am a bit concerned about taking away Jimmie the Bird.

I was amzed at the sucsess, due to it being my first propper movie, and it being my first full length feature film.
It was such a sucsess that the radio interviewed me. What was annoying, was my teacher made me say a stupid word during the interview something like 'Quijibow', but I phoned them up and asked them is they could have the word deleted.
I d not have a copy of the interview, but do have a scaned copy of the News Artical, wich has been sent to 'Dreamworks SKG', as Spielberg is my Idol.

The following is from the news artical:
Step Aside Spielberg for Nathan means Business
A TALENTED boy who aims to be the next Steven Spielberg has been awarded the top prize in the Young Film-maker of Mann competition . Nathan Russell-Raby, 11, of Main Road Colby , received £200 A day at Duke Video and a trophy for his five minuet film Joe & Gramps, at the Erin Arts Centre, Port Erin, on Saturday, as part of the Mananan International Festival of Music and the Arts. His father, Gary, said: 'He is still over the moon and still riding on a high. 'He wants to be a story teller, and put his vision over,' he added. The Film tells a story of Joe, who is a camel and a DJ with his own breakfast show: all that matters is his hair or fur and when he reads a poem to his friend Gramps, will he hear it?
Nathan, who attends Rushen Primary School, spent six weeks working on his entry, but has been using video for the past six month after his parents gave him a video camera. Before that he made stop motion films with a web cam.

The following is from the radio's web page:

Standards were high for the "Young Film Maker of Mann" this year.
Eight movies were entered into the final and were shown in the Erin Arts Centre.
And the winner was 11-year-old Nathan Russell-Raby with his comedy piece "Joe and Gramps."
The Rushen Primary School pupil is said to be over the moon
His piece included puppets, a mix of live action, digital stills and a separate over layered sound track.

In a way, I think that they have made it out that my school helped me with it, but I don't agree, i have been self taugt and have been wanting to be a Film Director for years now, even my teahcer say's it's true.

I hope that 2 will be as bigger sucsess.

Another thing, I am making some more films, wich may delay me from being on Oddworld Forums, but I will try the best I can.
1. Joe & Gramps 2 (Nhoj-Tan Productions, Rushen, Sunny Puppets, BBC)( Spetember 2004)
2.The Missleading Murder (Nhoj-Tan Productions) (December 2005)
3.Dragons and Heroes (May not be actual title) (Nhoj-Tan Productions) (2007)
