Rainmaker really couldn’t be happier with the response from ReBoot fans. We wanted to re-develop the property in an entirely new way and have found the “wisdom of the crowds” to be right on the money.

Rebooted ReBoot Wins at PopVox

The Zeros 2 Heroes/Rainmaker campaign to relaunch ReBoot won the 2008 PopVox Award for Best Digital Campaign... and all thanks goes to you, the heroes who want to bring it back. With this win over big brands like Ubisoft and Virgin Music, ReBooters have shown that their “fantensity” is second to none. Congrats!

“[Rainmaker] really couldn’t be happier with the response from ReBoot fans”, said Paul Gertz, EVP of Rainmaker Entertainment. “We wanted to re-develop the property in an entirely new way and have found the “wisdom of the crowds” to be right on the money.”

This win marks another step forward for the ReBoot franchise: based on the initial feedback from the fanbase, plans are well underway for the first in a trilogy of animated films. The web release of a long-awaited ReBoot comic — titled Paradigms Lost — is also in the wings.

So, if you’re a ReBoot fan, feel free to take a bow: your unwavering dedication and passion for the show has helped get us here.
