Release[]
Worst Case Scenario III was in production since 2004. On September 11, 2006, Bob Page announced that the film had been completed. His internet was not good enough to upload a 36-minute film, so he shared one scene from the film as a teaser. On September 13, he announced that he would give free DVD copies of the film to the first 4 people who replied, as long as they were in Canada or the USA. The DVDs were claimed by Cody "Pierre Films" Brooks, Jonathan Schlaepfer, Tim Hui, and "1ceaham".[3] Page compressed the film further and got it uploaded to Archive.org on October 13.[4] A big fan of the film, Johnny Moa, sought permission to upload it to YouTube, and uploaded it to his channel on January 3, 2007.[5]
Over time, the film became difficult to access. Moa's upload was made unlisted and the original Archive.org upload could not readily be played in full. This was due to the unusual structure of its mov file, which split the video into two sequential streams, running at slightly different framerates, resulting in a file which could not be parsed correctly by anything except the deprecated Quicktime. The Brickfilm Archive copy of the film was constructed by separating out the streams of the file, adding the missing framerate data (originally stored in the mov header) and reassembling the parts into a working mp4 file. Moa's YouTube upload was subsequently located, but the Brickfilm Archive copy is in slightly better quality. Moa's upload was eventually made public again in 2018, but his YouTube account was terminated shortly afterwards, possibly due to a copyright strike following the relisting of the film.
