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. |

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

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. |

Thanks, when I need to know more about comic strips, I'll know to whom I should turn. |

Comic strips are a form of entertainment, film is one too. It's important to be able to distinguish between them. Good luck. |
