A group of people grow old and die in eight days (somehow), and have been sending people on a quest to open a distant doorway which will (somehow) return a normal timeline to them.
This is a science fiction 1980s movie in the same sense as Dune - (1984 movie) is; it's confusing when it's not abstract and thoroughly old-looking.
Note that it itself says it's 1983 even though IMDB says it's 1984.

A black cloud envelops a city, causing everyone to age.
A moody, but ultimately pointless, movie.

VADER EPISODE 1: SHARDS OF THE PAST - A STAR WARS THEORY FAN-FILM
Something something Vader.
Not recommended. I only watched it because it had some copyright drama.

It is discovered that a person and their voice can be paired with certain words to manifest effects in the real world.
Tiring. Slow, confusing, and after 12 minutes it gets into a bit of a plot. The world has not been particularly well-explained.. giving this too little substance to hold my attention.
17 minutes

A plague hits New York and then the world, and New York operatives are activated to do stuff and things.
Not bad for a short-ish film. There are some characters who do stuff, and there is some plot-like activity. Recommended for fans of what I call the "ruined world" genre.

(Summarizing it would spoil it.)
Adorable and heartbreaking, this was one of the first if not the first short film which got me interested in this sub-genre.

An assassin, that everyone knows, does some assassiny things but everyone knows him.
This is basically a long intro to a video game. While not bad, it's not good. It is rife with over-acting and it felt confused to me. I didn't stay interested.
I see there are other shorts, but I'm not going to watch them.
The CGI series is:
Properly titled Assassin's Creed: Lineage.

Space-Mexican construction workers build the universe, and an idiot child turns out to be the god of Deism. Or something.
Very well-crafted, if loosely written.

I heard of Codehunters from one of those idiotic "10 things you didn't know"-type YouTube videos. It had a reference to Borderlands - (2009 game) having artwork similarity.
However, it turns out to be Kotaku's usual bullshit "journalism" based on a reddit comment thread. No, really. For all anyone knows, Kotak-eww made it all up.
Overall, this short is decent. Good enough to deserve the recognition it did. There are plenty of other similar styles and stories which are like this though.
