Reaction to the film can be summed up in the fact that it became an Internet phenomenon almost overnight; indeed, more than 10 copies of the movie were produced on the popular filmsharing website YouTube. Reaction has extended beyond the social networking sites and into the mainstream media including mentions in The Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, and The New York Times. The worldwide attention that the video received earned the video's creator, David Lehre, the opportunity to develop a pilot for Fox Television.
