I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

Woohoo! Can't wait to stay up late F5ing the blender homepage :P
HELL YEAH !!!! RAWR!!!!! CANT WAIT XD
Cant wait!!! :)
btw, as i remember for BBB, shouldn't we first got DVDs before online premiere?
i guess this way they prevent it from leaking to early?
pretty impressive - cannot wait till I can see it.
the new render improvements must have worked out well for this style
judging by the work we saw sofar.
Good Job.
dragon is breaking the fourth wall :/
the picturRe is awesome ,
i can't wait guys.
It looks sooo great!!!
wow wow wow
Gooooood! Can't wait to see the movie! So in Thursday, September 30th will be "The Sintel Day"? Maybe I should take a day off to enjoy that red-letter day! :)
Fantastic - do we have a time when it will be online? I've a whole building of new students and I could get them all together to watch and cheer - just like we did at Studio K!!!! Wooooooop!
Very impressive poster. Well, I'm definitely motivated now :)
*marks 30th on calendar*
Ooh ooh ooh! I'm excited!
@mr. Andrew : LoL~ i actually does that XD.. cant wait till i see this epic movie
F5ing all tha way
hope download is ready though.
Can't wait guys and gals! Congratulations to anyone involved!
Can't wait to finally see it!
The 3d work on the poster is nicely done, but the positioning of the title looks out of place imho. Surely it would be better placed in the top quarter of the poster(across the forehead) where it would be more legible.
Currently the S in Sintel is somewhat obscured by the graphics on the bottom left, especially when viewed on the thumbnail size. Just my immediate reaction anyway.
Of course everything else about the project is top notch :)
Awesome... was hoping this would happen... 30th is my B'day..
this is My best Birthday gift ever... i'm even planning to buy a new pc soon and start working with blender on my B'day.. :) yippieee........
Oh yeah this looks sick :D
Nice. I've been waiting for this.
That's an awesome poster :D
It's SO close now :D Can't wait :)
How exciting!
/me tries desperately to timewarp forward a week
Hnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggggh!
Damn. Still here.
This is AWESOME!!! I can't wait
W00t!
BTW without trying to sound like an evil bs (and I'm off topic I know) I would also like to see blender dot org with a new look. Sintel's website looks 1000 times cooler imho.
whooo! I hope your servers are up to it, its gonna be massive. :)
Well done to all involved. You should be proud of what you have done there. I would be, if i could do what you have done lol
Pan's labyrinth anyone? Waiting to see this movie. Good job guys!
Lol. Somehow I find myself laughing. Its really exciting!
Just to add to the building anticipation, the tutorials and dvd features are starting to fall into place as well... :P
*Head explodes*
the both dragons are looking Cute
Amazing!
Great Day! This will be "The Day".
