Jack:
Overall a good film. Let's tally: 2 seconds of setup, 1.5 seconds amusing daydream, 1 second snap back to reality, and half a second of comic gold. The default snapshot of this film captures everything I love about it. Olivia's reaction to the men's Rocket Power-esque bro love handshake made my morning.
Nick:
I just think it's weird that she brought up having kids in front of other people. Seems like she got what she was asking for.
John:
The eyes have it. Olivia's eyes that is.
This isn't one of the greatest 5sfs ever, but it's a solid, blue collar work. Five second of film followed by a brief, hearty chuckle.
If every 5sf this week was one food item on my Thanksgiving plate, this one is the mashed potatoes. "Collection Day" is the cylindrical congealed cranberry jelly cut into slices -- it's crazy and delicious. "Goin' Up" is the green bean casserole -- the vegetable dish that is on the table, but remains untouched. And "Bad Times and Broken Roofs" is the Georgia Moon.
(Georgia Moon is, of course, what the pilgrims drank at the first Thanksgiving. This led to John Smith vomming all over Squanto, the first international incident caused in North America)
Let's hope that Friday's film is the turkey.
Haley: I'm a big fan of this style of video-- bring something up, flash to a person's thoughts, flash back to reality. This one was done with hilarity on all counts. And I agree with Jack that the last scene (Olivia's reaction to the Rocket Power bro-shake) really seals the deal. Also the fact that the bro-shake is continuing as the film is ending is a beautiful touch.
