IT HAS RETURNED!
Welcome to the BIONICLE : Quest of the Toa topic, here you will find progress updates,
animation clips, and learn all you need (or didn't even want) to know about BIONICLE : Quest of the Toa or BQotT for short.
What is BQotT you ask? Well, its an insanely ambitious project of mine which is to actually make a feature length Bionicle movie covering the earliest parts of the storyline (MNOLG). It'll basically take the classic scenes
from the MNOLG (Lewa and Onua battle, Ussal Crab rides, Makuta battle etc) and intertwine them with all new story which blends it all together into one heck of a geeky popcorn movie.
This idea came to me before even Mask of Light was ever mentioned, and I have just recently come to the point where I could turn that idea into a reality. So, why not start now?
NEWSThere is currently no news
TRAILERS/PREVEIWS/VIDEOSHere's where you'll find each official movie trailer and related videos from BQotT, you can also find videos (including the popular Lewa Q&A) at the official www.bqott.com website.
Teaser Trailer 2Right Click and "Save Target As" - .WMV formatFor Tahu HatersRight Click and "Save Target As" - .WMV formatTHE FIRST EVER BQOTT TEST REEL!I'm pleased to announce the first release of a series of videos I dub... Test Reels...
Throughout the production of Bionicle: Quest of the Toa, I've produced alot of tests, and these videos will show to the public most of the tests that I've made in the last few monthes. But not only is this a reel of tests, but I also supply some visual (text) commentary describing the purposes and results of each of the tests shown (some tests repeat themselves multiple times due to shortness).
So, lets take a look behind the scenes... and watch... BQotT Test Reel 1!
Right Click and "Save Target As" to Download - BQotT Test Reel 1 - WMV format - 4.19mbThis is definatley the longest video I've made to date, nearly 3 minutes of Bionicle eye candy. Enjoy!

Heh, I posted it because I was getting soooooo many PMs about having the topic reopened. I even get the impression Pohuaki has experienced the same. So I figured now's the time to get back into the swing of things and bring back the topic.

Where are the names of the voice actors for Turagas Onewa and Whenua?

On one hand: YAY! Bionicle: Quest of the Toa is back!
On the other hand: WAAAA!!! I've already sent in all my lines!
Now all I get to do is sit back and watch it happen without any of the nagging voices inside my head telling me to stinkin' record the lines and get 'em sent in! . . . Darn.
Aw well, I guess just sitting back and watching will be fine. Glad to have ya' back, Lewa11.

wow, you already sent in all the lines, how many? and what if someof them were done with the wrong emotion for what it would look like on the screen?

Cool, it's back! Even though I never posted in the old topic, I thought after seeing Lewa Q&A I'd come in and post. 
Well, nothing much to say except that I can't wait to see the whole movie!

Finally, the new topic is up. However, I noticed a few inconsistancies, some members have their usernames and their real names, but some only have one. It's a bit confusing, could you fix that?

As almost everyone has said before: YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!! It's back!!!! After seeing lewa Q&A I was thinking, "I thought he lost the program." Any way, I can't wait for the movie.

That's because Lewa11 asked all the cast members to submit their real names. Some didn't for reasons of privacy, so only their Username is up. The reason one or two are only real names is because those guys don't go to Bzpower. And the reason "AKA Lewa11" isn't by Jonathan Kaplan in "Takua" is because, well, we ALL know who Jonathan Kaplan is! 
KToI: Well, despite the 3D Animator broke down, cast members were still expected to send their lines in. If I didn't do something correctly, Lewa11 would've told me, regardless of whether or not Quest of the Toa was still up.

What I'm saying is that some people only have their real names up, it doesn't display their usernames.

People wanted it open again, so I figured rather then ignore them, listen to them. Besides, last time I had the topic up it really gave me alot of help when it came to production. For example: people saw the topic and PMed me links to very helpful resources, people discussed ideas and posted comments... all of which are very helpful for my sanity and for the movie itself.
Something that hasn't been seen before will (hopefully) be seen later today... and thats all I'll say for now.

NEW STUFF!Here is a redone version of (what I call) "The Matoran Theme" from MNOLG. You know, the music you hear when Tamaru swings over the falls, or when Hafu carves his own monument!

I'm sorry, for some reason freewebs acts really bizzare on BZP... but.. it should work if you copy the link and paste it into the address bar.
EDIT: Okay, I think I fixed the link... its weird.. freewebs if you right click for the link to post, it gives you one thats incorrect. Now it should be able to be clicked on and everything.
