A Boy and His Atom: The World's Smallest Movie

Submitted many times, and yet it never gets any discussion. The only comment on all the previous submissions (from a quick, desultory search) is this:

Similarly, it never seemed to get much attention, judging by the severe lack of up-votes. Here are the previous submissions I found (some deleted):

One of the really challenging parts of making this movie is that you never know exactly where the "pixels" are. There's a chance that the head didn't actually get the CO atom. There's also a chance that the atoms bounced around some while moving the atoms.

This is a very interesting movie. The 'making of the movie' was interesting too. I liked the keyboards that they were using in the office.

Cool ... though the physics was disappointingly "classical" ;)

this is a remake: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/boy_and_his_dog/

Worst AND best resolution in the world.
