For those of you who haven't seen the movie. Here it is in it's full length splendor! I hope that the blender community can create some big buck bunny sequels building on the work that they have done. I'm looking forward to seeing some more of Big Buck's adventures.

The Big Buck Bunny DVDs arrived at the Blender institute so that means that I should be getting my DVD soon. I'm totally looking forward to checking it out since I have thoroughly enjoyed reading about and observing the movie's the creation process.

Apparently they have about 2500 DVDs to send and they have to send mine all the way to Japan so I might not get mine until after the internet downloads have opened up but I think having the DVD will make it easier to enjoy the movie since I won't have to wait for a download and deal with the huge HD encoded movie file.

The Google Open Source Blog mentioned the Blender Foundation's project Big Buck Bunny in their most recent post about the Libre Graphics Meeting. Hopefully that will get some more exposure for what I think is a really cool and successful project to improve the quality and usefulness of open source software. The chairman, Ton Roosendaal, is truely an amazing person.
