It's one odd and weird twist after another. First a woman comes out of the shadows to knock out the bad guy, then the doof turns out to be a cop, and then the shadow at the end looks like the cop I didn't think was a cop, but then I did and now he may not be or he has a twin...or something. Dear god, it was like my brain was on a roller coaster, one of those that you thought maybe you shouldn't get on, but then you do anyways and afterward your not really sure what happened on the ride you just know you liked it. Plus the other one I liked seemed only to be a means to use an aftereffects explosion.

The video we uploaded had problems during the Quicktime upload and consequently there is video problems for the last twenty seconds. This problem is being fixed...

a story that lead to no where interesting.... bad lighting... really bad ligthing. except the last shot. No suspense... bottom two this week.

I don't see where this "bad lighting" comment comes from, but whatever. I thought it was good especially because it doesn't force sci-fi and tries to make the story more believable unlike certain OTHER entires

i like this story than the sci-fi because it changed the way of the last video clip that won (crimson nightmare), this makes the most sense from directing the different view of what happens next. Like when annie getting knocked out and then mark garfield is actually an undercover agent. I just keep thinking he is gonna make some kind of funny remark as to his first video clip answering the phone (easy annie). The silhouette of him at the end was funny though.

This and midnight blue (title doesn't fit piece), will be judges top choices. good job.

This one has the most believable acting by far. The lighting is only "bad" because it's supposed to be bad -- the whole piece is set at night, in a parking garage and a dark park. Good job.

"most beleivable acting so far"... I cracked up everytime Oliver spoke.... good acting? please reconsider...

This one is so so. Kind of boring, however, I hope either this or the Circle of Death wins, because I'm quickly growing sick of the ridiculous adventures of the geek squad. GIVE IT A REST AND GO CHASE SOME SPIRITS !!!!

daJudge needs to remove the stick from his ass.

Great job this week guys. This one is def my favorite. I've never been a huge fan of your previous work, but this one really sold it for me. I have to disagree with the people who say it doesn't move the story anywhere. In fact, it leads for a perfect ending. They're just about to meet and have everything end. Good job guys.

good job guys. you got Larsen vote.

I like how you've brought back the name Seabird from one of the second chapter's submissions. Could have been a little more suspenseful, but otherwise Good work!

After reviewing comments left on each group's submission page I've noticed the harsh criticisms left for each group. The highest number of verbal assault's is on Dusome's page. I've viewed the profiles for these commentators. The most disparaging comments left on Dusome's page (CCC, wastoass, and gagglegeeses) have only voted for TeamBlackRock each time. In correlation, TeamBlackRock's page has irritable comments left by members that have only voted for Dusome each time. Additionally, these voting members have been exchanging jabs at each other via continuous comments. Some negative commentary has been placed on pages by RenderThis, but they've offered constructive criticism instead of pure insult. Not sure why Dusome and TeamBlackRock's fans or members have felt the need to belittle the other's work, but it reflects poorly on these two groups. A RenderThis sole voter chose to deprecate other entries on the RenderThis page. This is undesirable as well. My belief is that commentary should offer suggestion/constructive criticism. All three team's have accomplished desirable submissions, but unacceptable verbal communication. My vote will only be extended to AgainstTheClock not just because of the decent entry, but for appearing to be the only team that does not have friends/members that demean their competitors.

I believe you guys owe me some royalties.

Maybe if we won, Mallick.
