New_Order Posted February 28, 2005 Good day Over at Adventure Gamers I often make humorous videos that touch on community issues. Anyway, to cut a long story shot, I made one for Idle Thumbs. I hope you like it. If I get enough positive responses I will make more. One thing to note is that the audio quality is quite poor (though it seems to be decent on this PC), at the moment I don't have the equipment to record better audio but that will change soon The video is around 12 mbs http://s88514120.onlinehome.us/Paper%20Street%20Productions/Thumb.wmv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted February 28, 2005 You need a cameraman, a director, an editor, three grips, a writer, and a speech coach.... Other than that it is awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jake Posted February 28, 2005 You can never tell with Kingz. Maybe he was just trying to be helpful. Or maybe he hates it and also hates you personally. It's a little game he likes to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New_Order Posted February 28, 2005 Okay, well here is the video anyway: http://s88514120.onlinehome.us/Paper%20Street%20Productions/Thumb.wmv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New_Order Posted February 28, 2005 I was kind of hoping you would pick me as the random thumbs member. I bet everyone was hoping that you would say them when you were picking. But it was you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New_Order Posted February 28, 2005 I kind of felt mad when you wasted all of that Nestle Quik. You shouldn't be so wasteful. There was a bowl under. I kid. But no, seriously... FUCK YOU Pretty cool that you put that together, New_Order. I wouldn't mind seeing where you can go with this. Or rather, heck, it doesn't have to have anything to do with Idle Thumbs...just make some cool shorts or something. Thanks, I appreciate that Oh BTW, I have tonnes on AG Here are some links to them: John Epic Daily: http://forums.adventuregamers.com/showthread.php?t=6177 (Search through this thread, there are 3 videos) Adventure Gamers question Answered in Video Form: http://forums.adventuregamers.com/showthread.php?t=6907 (Search through this thread, there are 2 videos here) I also have a proper short film that I shot (Not by myself this time, unlike the others. I don't have a link to that one though sorry) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted February 28, 2005 Hey that was pretty great! I thought that some of the editing was actually quite good, especially the couch-roll montage and the bit where you push the beaker under the waterdispenser. It actually makes me want to go shoot some random erratic movie like this! And with the necktie and your particular script, you even had a David Brent going there in the beginning!

b0b Posted February 28, 2005 I kind of felt mad when you wasted all of that Nestle Quik. You shouldn't be so wasteful. It was banana nesquik - not chocolate. (at least that's what it looks like) - so I wouldn't worry too much. Chocolate is the only true flavour of Nesquik. I also liked the video. The bit with the spoons made me giggle.

netmonkey Posted February 28, 2005 Well, that was entertaining... specially the part with the explosions... it made a lot of sense to have them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted February 28, 2005 Every movie should have more explosions, you witless dullard! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaff Posted February 28, 2005 bravo!! that was quite quite meaningless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nsps Posted March 1, 2005 In terms of the poor sound you mentioned, you'd be better off keeping ambient noise, even if it's just hiss, in, rather than cutting to complete silence in between your lines. It was banana nesquik - not chocolate. (at least that's what it looks like) - so I wouldn't worry too much. Chocolate is the only true flavour of Nesquik. This is completely true. Had it been chocolate, I would have worried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SiN Posted March 1, 2005 suitably odd, pretty amusing. i quite liked it ... we demand more SiN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted March 1, 2005 Sorry, I didn't find it in the slightest bit amusing. You'll have to try harder if you want to entertain me. The AGS stuff was much more fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
