: I think it generally worked more often then it didn't. The cut-in footage was
: jarring, especially at the beginning—I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be
: watching some sort of in-universe bad sci-fi or something. And during the
: sniping scene it was wonky. But poor color matching aside using the SpOps
: footage when they could helped.

: If I had a criticism, it was probably that the plot and characters sort of
: meandered, and it might have been a better idea to tell a shorter story
: with a more focused arc that felt more grounded in the timeframe of the
: game. But I think the acting was in general a step above a lot of fan
: films, and I definitely appreciated the side chatter. Generally fan films
: tend to focus too much on the special effects that they can't pull off to
: the same level anyhow, and the non-combat stuff is cringey (this was a
: fault of Helljumper for me) so I appreciated the film in that respect.

And so much footage from Wing Commander was used. By the way that was a pretty fun flick.
