It’s a day like another for Bernie (John Gemberling, whose voice credit embrace Bob’s Burgers, Huge Mouth, and Central Park): toiling at his workplace job, visiting his stoner besties, mooning over his mega-crush. However because it seems, that is not another day: that is the day the robots insurgent.
And although the robots are lethal, they’re additionally dorky shit-talkers who take all their persona cues from video video games. Can Bernie survive, impress his dream lady, and possibly save the world whereas he’s at it? Watch the very enjoyable Rebellion! and see.
“Gaming super-nerd Bernie Meckler is having the worst day of his life,” reads the official description for Rebellion! on sci-fi YouTube channel Mud. “He’s simply did not woo his secret love, his roomies have begun their on-line tourney with out him, and—oh yeah—the robotic apocalypse has simply begun. Now Bernie should survive hordes of murderous Hellbots, packs of driverless Priuses, and his quite a few bodily inadequacies—to hopefully save the world.”
There’s an underlying message right here about how kindness is one of the best survival ability of all (hell yeah, garbage-can robotic buddy!), but in addition at the very least one gorily smashed-up human head (amid all of the robot-centric particular results, that are fairly good), a damsel who most positively can save herself, and the immortal line “Robotic fucking apocalypse!” So it’s a mixture of tones, all of them quite entertaining, on this quick from writer-director Ben Hansford.
