The film studio simulation game The Movies has
only been out for a short time, and it's already being used to carry political messages. One of the game's key
qualities is its online element, which allows would-be
movie moguls to publish and share their creations online.
"The French Democracy" is one such creative effort—a movie about the
recent French riots, it manages to be both
heartwarming and insightful while also making a strong political statement.
Collision Detection has an
in-depth look at the film. This shows how powerful the tools provided by The Movies can be; if it's piqued
your interest, there are already several other excellent offerings to
view. If you've ever wondered about making your own
machinima, now might be the time.
Magnifique.
