"J.U.L." Shaun Patrick/Stewbottum

Hey Shaun I've not read any of the other comments here, but this was my last film to comment on, as well as view. Alphabetically it was near the bottom of the list, but I also expect good things from you & wanted to save a good one for last.

Well, I wasn't disappointed. You're really into comedy, which I respect, and think you're good at. That first nut crack left me falling out of my chair with laughter. VERY well done, I might add, as when I framed through it I could see the bat never even came close, but you could otherwise never tell & the shot was sold quite convincingly.

I wish the dominatrix (or bombinatrix) had filled out the leather costume a little better :evil:, but otherwise thought your super villain was cool.

The lead was definitely whacked, so much so that it began to lose its humor after a while, at least for me, as there weren't really any highs & lows with it, just a constant nutty guy.

Good job in another comedy line up, which I can safely say yours are always among the best for comedy & dry humor.
 
Ha. Hahaha. That was great. I needed a good laugh. :) The actors were great, especially the kids. I liked your camera movement and the music was perfect. This reminded me of a Kids in the Hall episode. Awesome work. :thumbsup:
 
Just watched this film this morning ..lmao ..great !!

The actors were Great ...really liked the father ..thought he did a bang on job..
Also liked the "HUG"? bit ...

It was easy to pick up on the idea of the Father not being close to his kids ..eg reading a map to find the School ? where is kids went/were .

Thought this was a well done short !!!.

Between Diaper Boy and J.U.L you guys might do well T shirt sales .

One of my favs great in all depts. Loved the dad. Will PaperBagMan get his own short??
Fun, Fun, Fun. (Capital F's)
Top job in all areas. Bombinatrix is hot and surprisingly tough liked that front kick to his face, please post stills of Bombinatrix at home being evil :)
Jp
 
Glad you guys enjoyed it. There will be plent of Bombinatrix stuff on the website, and on the Behind the Scenes, shortly after the competition comes to a close. We'll keep you updated!
 
Note: I haven't read the other posts yet, so I may repeat comments that have already been made.

I liked the opening shots of the van coming into frame and then careening away as he tries to find the school.

The audio seemed off, particularly when he first meets up with the kids. The tonal quality of the lead's voice seems to change from shot to shot and several times when he speaks loudly it clips really bad.

The kids played their parts perfectly...definitely the best actors in this piece. I particularly liked when the boy put the t-shirt on and pulled the sleeve down over his head...pretty amusing to me for some reason. And I enjoyed the several non-descript "superheros".

I liked the spin-off of the justice league logo transition, cool idea.

Laura Mulvey???

And I thought everyone around here got their film know-how from the sci-fi channel?!?

Okay, that was mean and unnecessary.

Upon second gaze...

Great film! Very funny and great acting. My only beef was the sound, but you already know that that was a problem.

Very funny - by far the funniest in the fest. Great work!
