Some Interesting Movies Inside iTunes U

Fish

Featuring a story of an extraordinary friendship between human and a fish. It's interesting to me that they can actually made the fish looks real. And they successfully end the story in a very interesting and funny way..

Office Mobius

The opening of the story seems to be an usual life in office. The interesting part comes when the timeline is moving backward and the story point of view is changed.

A Faery's Tale

Artist: Syvia Apostol

A short movie that tells a story of little devil that likes to collect teeth of human kid. And the interesting part is, the end of the story is really unexpected.

Alien Abduction

When alien tries to abduct outer space cow and fails..

Kabob

The battle between a crab and an ant in order to obtain delicious foods. Interestingly, they started the battle by throwing their mind bubble and continued with physical battle. As expected, none of them is the winner.

A Vicious Cycle

Story of a footballer who has a very powerful shoot and incredibly fast running speed, because he wears Nike!

And Some Days It Rains

Sheitani

Artist: Ramon Martin, Ekene Nwokeke and Min Chang Tsai

For those who like to see animated action movie, this movie will be suitable for you. It's the battle between human and demons. I like how the artists animating how the human drawing out his weapon.

Inside Out

Artist: Luke Rowsell

Story-telling a lazy fat man whose brain and eyes are escaping his body. It's quite horrible at the first time I watch the short movie. But after several times watching it, I find it's quite creative.

If you've finished watching the movie, you can move your mouse around the display pane and a navigation menu will appear. On the top left corner, you will see a cross button, you can click on it to exit the movie pane and go back to your iTunes movie selection.
