I got linked to this on another forum. I thought it's really good (especially loved the ending), so I figured I'd share it here.

Interesting look at a different style of animation.

I really enjoyed Firing Range. Very unique, but more than anything, the animation style sold it for me. Very, surprisingly well drawn, you'd almost think that they filmed it and then drew over it sort of how A Scanner Darkly was done.

I like the "There will come soft rains" and I watched it a lot of times. And I love R.Bradbury.

But I didn't know about the first cartoon. I've read the story, but I haven't seen the animation. Thanks for sharing!
