@Krakenstein MK-II: We'd have heard about it if it were already out. As I understand it, he's taking it to Sundance to get a distributor.
@corpore-metal: "Why, when I talk about belief, why do you always assume I'm talking about God?"
@GenXCub: There are other factions than Evolutionists and Creationists. And shades between, besides.
Esther, you win internets for:
I love the discussions these types of articles always spark off. They're absolutely fascinating in the breadth and force of opinions and views. And they often veer toward — and then sometimes away from —the obvious next question of what consciousness (and by extension, life) really is.
@Krakenstein MK-II: Which one? He's planning to have it in theatres by March.
@ryernl: I dunno, the dude tweets so freaking much it's entirely possible I missed something — but my understanding is he's planning to do a Sundance screening.

@OhFudge: You're a better person than I am if you're waiting patiently...
@soulfinger: A fair point, but "this" was intended to refer to being able to see it — to the title of the article — not necessarily the nova itself.
As with the majority of commenters, I really, really hope this happens in my lifetime. And not when I'm old and feeble, either.
@nekowrites: Who cares about that — I wonder what effect it'll have on world religions when it happens!
