I saw the earlier cut of Viva Amiga twice at the Amiga 30th show in Mountain View, Calif., in 2015. Also, I have purchased and watched the final version, and I say job well done, Zach. The earlier cut in 2015 suffered from some repetition here and there and the film seems to have benefitted from the final tweaking that happened during the intervening months. You deftly merged archival material with new material, including interviews of THE key Amiga people, along with a nice mix of product shots, footage from new and past Amiga shows, 3D renderings and vintage magazine and newspaper clips. You told Amiga's story well -- and the 62 or so minute running time was NOT too taxing and shows disciplined filmmaking in keeping just the right stuff in the cut.
The shots of the Amiga "junk pile" staged at a boarded-up strip mall were a clever visual way of illustrating the fall of Commodore and all that that meant to the entire Amiga ecosystem of the 1990s.
All that said, I look forward to some future release of any gems that might have fallen to the cutting room floor. I would like to buy a DVD or Blu-ray release, with some extras if possible.
Was able to purchase a decent-quality 720p downloadable file, with no DRM, from Vimeo. I watched it using MPlayer 2.64 on my X1000.
