excellent!

My good friend and often foil Ross Ruediger and I have had this
ongoing debate over the future of "entertainment" - it's been 10 years
now and it still rages.

I maintain that the future is in short, well written and punchy films
of no longer than 20 minutes max. He obviously takes the opposite
point and the debate rages.

Every once in a while something comes along that proves my point -
this is one of them.

That's a great film - has all the components and is interesting,
funny, poignant all at the same time. Nicely shot too boot.

Great stuff - thanks.

Folks may be open to short format film but it's hard to develop
characters or a story arc of any real significance in such a short
time.

There's reasons other than the value of a movie ticket that push
feature films to more than 80 minutes.

You can develop great stories in a very short time. Comic strips are a
prime example. But your viewer has to be both smart and semi well rounded
to fill in the blanks.

And you learned this in film school or in comic drawing school? We're
talking about the medium called film. Thanks, when I need to know
more about comic strips, I'll know to whom I should turn.

Well, I am assuming you have finally become the victim of one of our
spoofers I don't know if there was any point to this video as I really
didn't get past the first 20 seconds or so.

Later mon, hope you are eating well

Well guys. I thought it was a neat little story of a guy (Who happens
to be Angelina Jolie's brother) who has a nowhere job of being a
bathroom attendant in a class joint who doesn't make any money and has
no life. His car breaks down and by luck he finds opertunity with
inginuity to go into business for himself,a nd makes a load of cash,
finds out that it's lonly at the top and then has his business
shucked out from underneath him. He finds himself at the bottom again,
but also finds that he was appreciated and that good came out of his
endevors. And with more luck, finds a soul mate and by more with more
good fortune ends up making a good living with the woman he loves.

12 minutes tells a lot.


BTW, all is going good.... so far.

Well, I went back and sampled some of it, seems ok.. At first though I
really thought it was a joke or a spoofer until I saw more of it

Weird start, didn't seem like your type of humor in the first scene
which is about as far as I got in the thing the first time I went at it.

Hey, Tim, when I checked the link, there was no sound.

Trust me, you are better off that way. It is stupid as hell, I suspect
Tim is being spoofed...

I retract this post... Hey Tim, seems you are still a virgin

Speaking of bathrooms...

They've finally found a good use for some of the zillions of photos
and posters seen everywhere.

OK, I watched your Rentaperson vid. Not bad. Wouldn't work around here
'cause the commuters have turned 'slug lining' into a fine art.
