OPENING APRIL 1 2016 - Carlton Cinemas, Toronto
A feature film starring Nicholas Campbell, Marcia Bennet, Rachel Wilson and John Cleland
Written and directed by Michael Gibson
Executive Producer Allan Stitt
SYNOPSIS
The Addition tells the story of a mediation between two neighbours in dispute over a proposed addition. The mediation process reveals that the strident positions of both sides mask completely different and more vulnerable issues and leads to a surprising and not necessarily comfortable conclusion.

some of the thousaunds of comments we recieve
"Well all i can say is what a great way to have fun yet learn, this
has got to be the most addictive thing i have seen yet, games and fun
are one thing but this is just taking it to a new level!! This has by
far got to be one of the best sites i have ever been to. The creativity
and work put into this has been throughly thought out and is very well
put together. Continute the good work and keep 'em coming!!!" - Tammy
Vautour
"Well, I have to say this cause I believe that Flash content of moral
and ethical value is rare and a treasured thing for me, and perhaps
others. You don't especially have lots of hype compared to other people,
but your content forces most of my friends to relate to what they've
seen and react. You even caused one of my companions to start a negotiation
course. I think that not only are your animations better tha anything
I've ever seen, but the content is astounding, and that you should keep
up the good work."
"These things are addictive! If you don't beat them the first time
around, you keep playing until you do. I think they're cool." - Jennifer
"First, not only does this flash make you pick your brain a little
but it also gives you sympathy for the store clerk. There were points
where I felt sorry for the girl and when I didn't want to annoy her.
This flash also had wonderful voice acting and the added hint feature
proved most useful. Anybody who gives this entry a bad rating obviously
is either ignorant, stupid, or just immature." - Icewolf, Newgrounds
"Great stuff, really gets your blood pressure up. I enjoy the challenge
as well as learning better how to deal with a difficult person" - Shawn
I found all three episodes of "Ambition" by Michael Gibson excellent.
They all took me several attempts and taught me a lot. I found that
there was just enough information to tease my brain and make me think,
but not so much that I would become a simple 'vegetable,' just watching
another movie. I found the third episode particularly preferable. I
do sympathise with him, but it was not so much Ted himself that interested
me. I am a particular fan about Ted's theory on the truth being just
like an onion in that there are layers upon layers, ultimately leaving
you with the choice to either just let it rest and trust in God, or
to try and pursue it in your own mortal strength, and send yourself
mad. My congratulations to Michael Gibson, clearly a talented mind behind
these interactive cartoons. - Esther
