"Green Means Go" somewestfilms

nice. i liked the story and scene w/ the friend. the fx were cheezy at times but this helped with the ironic tone of the movie. maybe the farting was a tad overdone. over all its one of my favorites so far! it really stuck in my min...nice work
 
Thanks, we had a little bit too much fun making this one. We started filming the Thursday before the deadline, so we had many sleepless nights tryying to finish. I'm glad you liked it though.
 
This film rocked. TAKE THAT SCI FI! I loved how it started off just like nay other sci fi film, but then went to something totally twisted. How very, very punk. I don't have nearly enough posts to vote, but I am so tempted to rack up 90 more in the next week, just so I can give this one some high marks.

Best of luck!
 
Really one of the best so far!!! It reminds me of a South Park episode which was also very funny, I guess Cartman get an alien probe in his ass too. I also like the actors, they were very funny. Keep up the good work!!!
 
The scene where the guy's dumping his garbage and sees the dude looking up his friend's ass singe-handedly saved the rest of the film for me.

Funny as poo!
-no pun intended
 
You guys rock, man! I'm glad we are getting such a positive response for a film shot in so little time. Keep it coming...good or bad.
 
Are we aloud to post frame grabs from the films in these threads. Becuase that one shot of the guy point up the other's ass is undeniably the one funniest shot of any film I have seen in a long long time. - Not to mention A+ avtar mateial.

Yes the fartign was over done, even with the idea of the peice.

You had me in stiches by the end of this one.

Okay, I'm an ass, and WAY off base from what everyone else is saying, so feel free to completely disregard what I'm about to say, because I'm obviously in the minority.

This film ranked low for me ... not the lowest, but low. I felt the story was weak (though I joked around about doing a probe film at first too), as well as the acting, score, etc.

Don't get me wrong, the premise is funny, and if this is simply intended as a gag film, then it delivered, as gag films rarely need good FX, acting, score, etc. to be appreciated ... but from a technical view or story, it was severely lacking, I felt.

The "plop" in the toilet SFX was dead on, however, and the probe at the end made my butt pucker thinking about having that come out, barbs & all.
 
ha...I think envion's got it. It's a comedy!!!!!!!! It was original and funny. Everybody here laughed their asses off...no pun.
 
Yeah I thought it was great. I especially loved the shots of him in the space ship in agony recieving the anal probe. lol And of course when he and his buddy teleported out to the park, that was great! HAHAHA
 
This film sorta hit close to home with me when I watched it yesterday as I had a REALLY BAD stomach virus at the time.

But that's all I'll say about that....

My nomination for "Best still" :)

Thanks to everyone who has replied so far, we appreciate the feedback. I'm glad that everyone has had fun with this one. I think it's cool that you guys are into it. And the screen grab was a nice touch to this thread, thanks mikkowilson! Keep em coming!
 
This is going to be one of those films that grow on me, I can tell, like NAPLOEAN DYNAMITE. Watching that film the first time I didn't care for it, and didn't know what the fuss was about.

Now I've probably seen it 5-6 times, we own it, and I laugh each time I see parts of it now, or even think about it.

While I still don't like the production value or story/script in this, the idea is irreverantly funny, and that still makes me chuckle (good job, Mikko).
 
ENVISION, as far as your first post is concerned, I would never disregard constructive criticism. This is the stuff that we like to hear. It helps us get better every time we shoot something. I do appreciate your comments. By the by, it was supposed to be a gag film, I'm glad you saw that in it.

As far as your second post is concerned, I'm glad it's growing on you. Soon you won't be able to stop saying, "I nedd you...to look...up my ass!"

Awesome, thanks again.
 
I haven't read anyone else's feedback, so here is my review, and if I repeat stuff other people said, well sorry in advance...

Green Means Go – At first I didn’t know what the hell I was watching. Great alien, not sure if it was CGI, blow up, or what, but you grabbed my attention from the start and held it. I’m a sucker for dick and fart jokes, and this movie had no shortage. I didn’t like the big great effect because it looked too clean compared with everything else, but interesting none the less. Funny film. I think that you could improve in any area that you wanted to, from some better sound (foley more than dialogue), shot selection, use of DOF. I really enjoyed this film for what it was rather than what could have been improved. You had me laughing and that’s not easy. Your actors looked like they had fun, so good job on a quality submission.
