Fan Made Shows/Movies?

Any particular shows people here like watching? I've seen Renegades and a few others. I'm currently in the middle of Phase II. The special effects impress me for the budgets involved, and the writing/acting makes me appreciate the professionals more :^P I don't want to shit on any of them though. The effort is solid, and they're still an enjoyable watch.

I love the passion behind so many fan productions and want to like them, but the only one I've ever been able to say I enjoy is Continues.

@Corgana

One thing I really notice is timing in the dialog. It's one of those 'I know it when I see it' things. I couldn't do any better if I were producing it, but I can see a clear difference between amateur and professional shows. It's hard to exactly put my finger on it, but they'll hold onto a shot, the dialog will lag by a little bit, and it doesn't land as well as it could.

Yeah the audio mixing too. I almost feel mean saying this, but Trek fan productions have really made me appreciate good acting and good audio.
