Nice. It's good to see some of these characters in motion - helps put some faces and such with the script. You do indeed have something special here, fellas.

Great visual gag at the end. The CHUD-humor translates well to film. The clip makes me ache for more.

I wasn't buying it until "What would Astronaut do?" But damn, that was funny.

"What Would Astronaut Do?"

A reference to Davey in the podcasts?

I could have done without the close up of Larry's feet, but it's looking good. The end bit when he show's some leg had me laughing.

This has crashed my computer four times now. Not exactly sure what the problem is, but I get told Quicktime did something illegal, maybe like buying cheaper medication in Canada or something.

There's nothing to get, it just illustrates how crazy the character is.

I hope we can count on audio commentaries for the dvd?

If we get financed, you will be inundated with special features.

I have always found astronauts to be quite sinister.

Dev, the clip uses the iPod codec (but it isn't in iPod format), so you might need the newest version of QT. Other than that, I wish you luck.

I want a Compost Larry (in character) commentary, then.

I'm with Dickson..."What would Astronaut do?" just confuses me. Maybe it's the fact that it's astronaut instead of astronauts, but it just makes me feel like I'm missing out on an in-joke somewhere.

Sorry. Probably not the response you're looking for.

Any chance of getting some dialogue or verbal banter in future promos? Even if it's just rehearsal stuff, I think an actual scene from the flick would do a better job of getting your brand of humor across.

Just a suggestion.

I'm sorry to say this Nick, but that clip did absolutely nothing for me. I'm not really sure why, but I think it's simply that I just didn't get it.

It's a random vignette that's not even in the script. No worries. I think you'll like the flick, which is creeping very close to a greenlight.

Andrew's my pal, so I'm biased - but I've always been impressed by his eye and this clip is no exception. Obviously, the thing is silly - and the actor's energy helps sell it - but I think it's a really nicely put together short. And I love the end shot - the way the camera pulls back. Think this thing is really going to turn out nicely if, as Nick stated above, they get some money to make it.

Haha, I really liked it. I mean, it's a crazy hobo getting ready for his own personal crazy hobo war while "War" plays over the soundtrack. Maybe it's too obvious or something but I like it.

Great summary, gravedigger. That was my take as well.

Also, in the script my character tells him that he "smells like war".

You know I just notice Compost Larry kinda looks like this bum, I used to see around the city. I think he's dead or in jail, whatever.
