Alrighty then :neckbeard:
Was the 4th one made intentionally bad at the beginning?

gmans portal right? it seems that way.
[QUOTE=Captain Om Nom;22859292]Was the 4th one made intentionally bad at the beginning?[/QUOTE]
I thought that seemed fairly obvious.
I don't like the title cards because I feel that it affects the flow of the shorts and doesn't look aesthetically appealling. but since they are part of the 80s theme. they will have to stay right?
I was hoping for atleast 7 shorts for a collab video hopefully there will be more next episode.
Aww man, I was in the deadline! I MADE IT TO THA CHOPPAH!
Ahh! Nevermind! I guess we shall wait for EP2

Well some people are really that bad. For instance: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yeOovlzwhU[/media]

I am fairly sure that is also intentionally bad as the whole thing seems like a parody of The Idiots of GMOD, right down to the name.
Yeah that is intentionally bad by the spelling and the way he acted. If that isn't then
:suicide:
Now, the moment you've all been waiting for.
--=THE REVIEW=--
I liked the cheezey 80s theme at the beginning. (Even if it was out of place.) Among other things, the best video in this compilation was Matt's video. (Faolco.)It had an okay use of cinematography and camera effects + lighting. Aside from its dry theme, it was somewhat entertaining to watch. Instead of flailing ragdolls and cheaply executed physics he chose to set up well-placed cameras and a well demonstrated use of actions and timing. Overall the video shows a good amount of work.
Yamabito. I would have expected more from you. Mabey I'm wrong but I thought the theme for this compilation was 80s. I expected your video to at least fit the theme. Mabey it wasn't supposed to be anything special, however it demonstrates little to no work. Even with its basic message, it still could have been better. I don't think the movie deserves a review. If you want one I will give you one personally.
Freaky Soup. Your video was decent. For a Gmod film its about a 3/5. I liked your use of FX and how you had the emergency scene setup. When the guy first rises from the dead it looked cool and it caught me by surprise. Piece of advise: don't ever put Michael Jackson in any of your videos again.
Adamhully. Adam's video had little to show for it. I did like the portal effects but that is really all I found of any interest. The rest I did not like simply because you spent little time on it. I will not complain about the Fraps logo though. I have that in my movies. One more thing. Slow motion and Gman's face were cool.
Erick.(Fumples.) Was okay, probably second best in the selection. This one had some of the best camera effects and shaking of the compilation. None of the other movies used cool models so people might say it's unfair for me to complain. I really think this video could have been a lot better if it had used some better models and scenes. Don't get the wrong idea, the plane scene was great, it just didn't make any sense. Although these are minor concerns, I feel that they need to be brought to your attention. That's all.
Here's the order.
1.)Faolco
2.)Fumples
3.)FreakySoup
4.)AdamHully
5.)Yamibito
My video is bad simply cause it's not all flashy? If I did it flashy the joke would be lost, it's supposed to be surreal almost. I prefer to keep my humour simplistic and subtle, but hey what do I know, you're the real pro here. Give me a full-fledged review. Also your spelling is terrible.
I believe the way the shorts are presented could be improved.
as I say I don't like title cards so here is my suggestion:
When the shorts are playing use annotation ON the shorts to link to our respective channels get what I mean?

What a way to get defensive. Simply saying: The video had nothing to show for it. The humor was dry, the setting was dry and it had no redeeming qualities. That is why I didn't like it. I never said it was bad. I don't recall saying the joke sucked until now either. I'll ask you: What is there to like about it?
A great deal of people here are unproductive and negative. From now on I will be straight forward. If you don't like it, you can deal with it. Welcome to my world suckah.
[QUOTE=Kurit;22869875]The humor was dry[/QUOTE]
may I remind you that it did not have to be funny.
and what do you mean by the setting? setting of what?
EDIT: This is my 600th Post.

I could say the same about your most recent video with the jizz covered little sister, except yours was funny due to how poor it was. Space isn't original Kurit omgggggg.

Yamibito. could you please post your views about my suggestion?
as I said on other thread can people who contributing to this project NOT put "Directed by" and "thanks to" etc.
[QUOTE=ToNz;22870420]may I remind you that it did not have to be funny.[/QUOTE]
Ohhhh SHIT I WOULD HAVE SUBMITTED MINE THEN.
No really I think it DOES have to be funny.

anyone/anything that needs to be credited for someone's short should have its info put during the ending credits
otherwise having credits inside the shorts AND at the end is really redundant

Agreed.

Wherein Kurit ruins another thread.
Cmon guys let's not get sidetracked.
Kurit, my name is spelt with one T. If you're going to make an attempt at trolling me by saying my real name instead of my Ename, do it right
