Wow, production quality is excellent.. haha

I got trunked once for not disclosing a story about... well, don't ask.

5/17/2008 at 11:40 a.m. by TheBigKlosowski

Excellent! This is a great submission. I like the production quality here, it feels like a big budget movie!

5/17/2008 at 3:32 p.m. by killerrobotninja

not bad at all.

5/17/2008 at 4:39 p.m. by patrickbeeson

This is a pretty good submission. Down with hungrymother!

5/18/2008 at 5:47 p.m. by ThatsWhatSheSaid

Awesome! Probably the best acting and production quality of any submission so far (next to the original Rootclips). I would have preferred a bit more of a cliffhanger at the end or a little more leading, but overall I think it's fantastic.

Wat does this have to do with hungrymother? Anyway, not too bad, a little more serious than i would have liked though.

This was pretty good guys! I like where this could go.

What happened to Tony's sunglasses, though?

5/20/2008 at 11:10 p.m. by charliechaplin

They look like they're hanging on dude's shirt collar in the beginning. Pretty intriguing story that sets up nicely for the next potential scene.

Great job.

5/21/2008 at 9:06 a.m. by looch

Yeah, Scott Michaels (the first guy in the scene) has his sunglasses hanging on his shirt, but Tony Kingston (the guy who ends up with the case) doesn't have them anywhere.

Its not that big of a deal since I can tell who's who, but I just thought I'd point it out.

5/21/2008 at 1:55 p.m. by sonya

sunglasses, shmunglasses. I liked it!

5/21/2008 at 8:49 p.m. by ruby

Is it just me or does the guy playing Tony look and sound like a tranvestite version of John Heder.

5/21/2008 at 11:53 p.m. by looch

@ruby, LOL!! Totally!

im curious as to what town this was shot in?

5/22/2008 at 9:07 a.m. by jqutk

It was shot in Knoxville, TN

this one seems the most feesable, good job.

You got my vote

5/22/2008 at 10:24 a.m. by Bmorris

DAMMMMMN! did the cohen bros direct this... is that cheating? the cinematography, the intrigue, the drama, i could really feel his pain with the situation when he said,"prick". whats in the bag? I bet it's marsellous wallace's soul? HOW DO I VOTE?

5/22/2008 at 10:42 a.m. by killerrobotninja

Oh boy. How many friends do you have dude? most feesable? what's going on here?

5/22/2008 at 10:43 a.m. by killerrobotninja

haha... crap wrong video, I thought those comments were for "Zombies"... carry on ;)

5/22/2008 at 12:33 p.m. by natejones

LOL, there's no way you meant for that comment to be on the zombie video. You directly quoted other dude's comment. "feesable"

It's cool though. After all, both of our videos should be the clear favorites.

5/22/2008 at 12:40 p.m. by killerrobotninja

no dude... seriously, I started reading the newest comments thinking they were for "Zombies!" and I reacted accordingly. This isn't a bad entry, honestly.

And which video are you attached to, natejones?

5/22/2008 at 12:42 p.m. by natejones

this one.. they really need a forum on this site.

5/22/2008 at 1:25 p.m. by charliechaplin

ONE FOR THE UNDERDOG!!

5/22/2008 at 1:58 p.m. by moviebuff

nice michael jackson socks Tony!

5/22/2008 at 2:32 p.m. by Blake

f^%kin crazy...im on the edge of my seat...one thing would have made it better...mustaches... i know it doesn't go with the flow( who cares) moustaches rock .... i bet trunk guy gets out and scissor kicks dude in the back of the head.. what if its coke in the bag...cocaine is one hell of a drug.....no ive got it the next chapter should just start with the guy in the trunk setting the other two on fire and just yelling "get some!"..... no no what if trunk dude was completely naked and the guy who put him in there was like "where the f%#$ are your clothes?".... is it to early to enter this for the oscars?

5/22/2008 at 3:10 p.m. by dstoltzf

Let's run this on TVC.

5/22/2008 at 6:57 p.m. by redryder

Good camera work.

5/22/2008 at 7:28 p.m. by irishtreasure1971

Well done.

5/23/2008 at 9:46 a.m. by natejones

Well, It's a grim day when our video is in 6th place. When there is no way that it is worse than some of these. Oh well, I'm glad we got it done in a day anything more then I would have been kicking myself for wasted time.

5/23/2008 at 10:08 a.m. by killerrobotninja

yeah natejones. you should be right up there with me man. my crew and i did spend more than a day, and i'm really proud of what we did. But if someone doesn't disconnect fungus' internet connection... let the kicking commence.

5/23/2008 at 11:10 a.m. by Cadillac

KRN, very skeptical are we? just because your losing is no reason to throw out accusations. However this one should be closer to the top, and unfortunately it isnt. Definitely makes more sense than underworld.

5/23/2008 at 11:40 a.m. by natejones

We can't be to harsh, we're just bitter. We were the first to enter our video thinking that, "Ok if we're competing against three other videos, ours is leaps and bounds above the others from last week." Then we feared the guy who did the animation could come out with a kick ass animation that was a little more story driven. So, KRN came out with an equally as well shot scene and knew immediately that we were in trouble. All these extra videos just kind of came out of nowhere and suprised us.

5/23/2008 at 1:40 p.m. by jqutk

Well Im glad this has become just a contest of how many email addresses your friends have to vote and not quality of work. Some of the best videos are doing the worst in votes. Also I thought we couldn't use copyrighted music? Disqualification?

5/23/2008 at 11:16 p.m. by FungusRidden

Yeah, a few already were cracked down on for the music and had to change songs, I think. :<

I remember it was just you guys in this until, like, a day or so before they were due. No two ways about it, your team got the short end of the stick when seven others decided to tag along and mob the site. ;_; But, your entry's definitely among the best submitted, of any round.

We noticed later that our teams came up with similar but opposite stories -- yours ends with Scott in the trunk, ours ends with Tony in chair. Of course, yours was first, but I promise we didn't even notice until we were in the middle of shooting it ("Hey, I just realized, ours and Trunked are following similar ideas but in opposite directions!")
