At first I was like wtf???? But then I realized what was going on and loved it :) would like to see the umbies do more serious acting but I love what they do, they never fail to make me laugh
I'm a theatre guy and stories are a major part of my life....for the last couple of years that i've been watching short films on youtube and the last many years that i've been watching many many feature films.... this is one of the best things that i've come across.... a FANTASTIC film....
i hardly ever comment on youtube but for this one i just had to!!!!
David I have some bad news about the mime you shot that goes by the name of Daniel, he didn't die, just badly wounded and is alive and miming again, while ur in prison for 12 years. Might want to get your lawyer to look into that :P
Brilliant stuff. Surprised it didn't win. Brilliant writing, fantastic performances, great images - everything is working together seamlessly. If the director's cut ever comes out it should finish at 2.27 with 'don't mime.' The last minute or so is just embellishment (which, granted, includes the hilarious line: 'you're going to reach out for something that's not there' - but the rest is padding).
This should of won. It has a very profound meaning, while at the same time being disturbingly funny at first. Animal beatbox, please someone just loved the Pokerap a little to much as a kid.
yeah. why we people like to pretend when were adults...kids dont mime....they laugh, they cried, they sing,they play...look at me now..i have this game face on whenever i go to the office..
This grabbed my attention immediately and I laughed which is more than I can say about the winner. Tropfest is about the 'idea' which should be original, entertaining and enlightening. Beatbox was a kid's music video with no substance and didn't tell a story whereas the others did.
Rumors say that the winner knew in some form one of the judges or higher-ups.
I think they each had a favorite until Animal Beatbox came up and they all just picked that one due to it being a viral music video and not a short film.
This is marvelous. Love the actor, and the concept! I watched all the finalists and the winner, and was most impressed with this script. Personally, i think the end drags once the full concept is revealed but bravo regardless!
DON`T READ THIS CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS. U WILL BE KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY D LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE D BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF U DO NOT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST 3 VIDEOS U WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS. NOWU STARTED READING THIS DON`T STOP. THIS IS SO SCARY. PUT THIS ON AT LEAST 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN YOUR DONE PRESS F6 & YOUR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY IT ACTUALLY WORKS
