Impressive, of course, but if I wanted to do this, I'd take 254 screenshots of the trailer on my PC, run them through the BMP to DHGR program (http://www.appleoldies.ca/bmp2dhr/) copy all the images to a ProDOS hard drive image onto a USB stick, connect it to the CFFA3000, and then have a slideshow program run through the images as fast as it could. I bet with Plamen's new accelerator, a IIe might be able to play the slideshow at a suitable speed!
But of course, the artistry of the original guy is very impressive.

Why wouldn't a IIe be able to handle it as well as a stock IIc? Assuming the IIe had 128K, of course.

No reason, but of course a stock //c couldn't handle playing these as a
slideshow at a rate that would look like a movie trailer either.
