Harold Buttleman, Daredevil Stuntman

[Salohcin8940]

what happened to the quality? was it always in 360? I watched a long time ago and vaugley remember it being bigger/less fuzzy.

[nigznigz2]

[sensicat]

[nethstar]

[DethConsumer]

Hey I'm in this movie! 55:34

[INCURSORE1000]

GOOD

[francisstokesdotcom]

Sweet. Thanks for the support!

[spamanator666]

Nice! Azusa Foothill Drive In at around 18:16 mark... Too bad APU decided to tear down everything but the sign. At least the sign is still there... for now.

Morris Canyon Dam at around 1:27:00 too!

I'm guessing this was shot out in Azusa! =P

[francisstokesdotcom]

It was on the shoot that I learned where the name Azusa came from. Apparently it means "A to Z in the USA"!

[Frankholmquist]

You did well! It was a good watching!

However, this was made during some sort of filmschool right?

The are quite a few rookie misstakes, but overall, you manage to do something that I've yet to learn: Make the audiance wanna stay the whole 1h and 30m! Now that's a challenge for a firtstime featurefilm director (?)

Good Job!

[carpive59]

¿Qué dice? no entiendo absolutamente nada, podrían ponerle subtitulo, para entender algo que sea, (carpive).

[francisstokesdotcom]

It would take a long time to subtitle a whole feature film, but if I can I'll make it happen...

[50Druiden]

You should tell uss something more about the characters before, so you knew like what they were working with (all hes friends 2) perhaps if they have been friends since they was kids and so on. Otherwize REALLY great work :D

[Alejalunera]

oh my god what a long vid!! it was very exciting, but too long...

[MrJKELLEY]

haha that guy said he watched it and he was gay

[francisstokesdotcom]

[yellowskittle9]

[arsdag81]

[simplelife200]

Great Movie, I was able to watch 1:30 in less than 10 minutes

[Brucey69]

[vishnuks1]

wondeful

[davidgk100]

[nethausify]

lol

[CrazzzyBeatz]

this must have taken HOUR TO UPLOAD

[jmaasss1993]

HOURS* lol

[BushBaby901]

how is it 1 hour long?

[HoiHoyProductions]

YouTube can let people do that with permission.

Not just anyone can do it thought.

[bassrule444]

i love the movie :D i wish it was on dvd

[francisstokesdotcom]

It is! Click on the Amazon link above.

[gbabygiirl]

This is a great movie !

[thamir087]

do the movies load differently than the regular videos

[nethausify]

.....

[BOOSHBOYDOM]

what was the point in tht comment?

[Emo735]

sad sad man

[Hobzy107]

I'm surprised at how good this was! I watched some other youtube films and this beats them all in every way! The actors where 10x better than 'ghost game' (which was the worst "horror" film i've ever seen) And the story line was way better than 'the hunt for golloum'! Enjoyed Watching it. I'm gonna go buy this off amazon now :p

[strkill99]

LOL.....This move is AWSUM!

[gman135791]

cheap Hot Rod ripoff

[blackopient]

No. This was written before Hot Rod.

[stephaniemarkham]

this was completed in 2001.

[PdishmonkeyJJ]

iv been watching for 30 seconds

this is too long...im gone

[Jerray1973]

lol....golden showers

[KINGPIN88]

this movie has the most epic ending ever

[thizda]

Harald BUTTman

[deafdumbnblind]

First 32:53 min. were dry, slow,

and uninspired. Sorry about not

making it to the "end"

Lame.

Film school 101

[iloverap2]

why does this get 1.30

[JoshMcCue]

like 1 hour 30 mins? add "/movies" to the end of the youtube url.

[iloverap2]

ty lol

[jinkerGM]

Good movie. I liked the editing during the drowning dog scene. I like that we've never seen this place before, but with two, 1 second establishing shots, you know this place immediately. I also love John Hawkes, I've liked everything he has done. I hope you get noticed Holmes :)

[DoTheDarwoodDance]

This is an awesome achievement. Great job, i thought it was really great!

[TarikProductions]

Ehh?..

[jordangilbert13]

Only Watched 30 Mins Fell Asleep Not Cuz It Was Borin lol , I Was Tired , The Film Was Amazin , Wen I Got Time il Watch It All =]

[Clerkz]

Great movie, great actors!

[Roalviro]

i was not sure about how good the movie was going to be after the first scenes... it ended up being amazing! thanks for sharing it!

[NGC500]

Dan Castellaneta does everything! Awesome Awesome movie... I dont think he jumps. He said he was going to bangledesh, why make plans if your gonna jump? Anyways, it was WAY better than expected. I cant even find words to describe it. I thought it was just awesome.

[wiremu]

I lasted about 10 minutes; this ultra cutsey/folksy suburban, normal "joe" USA stuff wears pretty thin. Great for 14 year olds and people who loved the appalling "Me, myself and everything I know", (or whatever the hell it was called).

The director/producer seems like a nice guy though.

[Acornoa]

im14, i lasted 17 min. would watch it. Not bad, but, just not my kind of movie i guess

[mooseangelbelle]

Do the movies load differently than the regular videos?

[DrawFight]

Damn! I have seen the whole movie now!

It is like a real pro movie! Really, really, really good!

[DoctorCanRhyme]

we're actually watching this in my studio class and my teacher was going on and on about how cool you are and all the students loved it (especially me!)

[francisstokesdotcom]

Really? What school?

[ampm91192]

you're awsome

[Mikehobo]

Looks like you beat Andy Samberg to the punch on this one. I too was unsure about the film work, it was awesome.

[Mynameisjayfearme]

rofl, its fergin funni

[SoundmaniacX]

he jumped from a house rofl

[12233312233328]

where can i buy this? I was unsure when it first started but once I realized that it was meant to be crappy shooting I was totally psyched with this movie

[francisstokesdotcom]

There's a link below the screen where you can buy it, the 'Amazon' button. It's on Amazon and Createspace.

[mailhot4]

You are the REAL LIFE Hot Rod!!!

[koolpeeps09webscom]

love it its brilliant~!!!!!!!!

[manoory]

that was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo awesome cool

[AnonShawi]

Awesome work!

[zombiseatppl]

that movie was so funny. probably the best indy film i've ever seen. i like when he touches the flyswater

[Taillte]

Hilarious!  I honestly laughed out loud during the "stunt" montage -- the bit with the dogs was particularly hilarious!

[francisstokesdotcom]

Heh. Not planned. I assumed all the dogs would go for the meat, and we couldn't even get them to notice.

[Zerowii64]

lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl

[francisstokesdotcom]

I hope you "audio previewed" that!

[AlexanderDrewn]

"lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl lolcano lol rofl rotflol lmao lmfao roflcopters lawl" I just copied that and audio previewed it JUST cos you said that, haha,

[TimidPictures]

love the script, love the characters - especially the ending.

[nathang12345678910]

by the way, i loved it

[nathang12345678910]

i cant believe u put him in a washer

[ipodnano4334]

the ending is sad kind of

[noodle976]

golden showers... lol. also, I haven't finished the movie yet and it's already WAY better than hot rod.... Hot rod was terrible. This movie is actually good. :D

[nathang12345678910]

i loved it but i thought the vid could only be like ten minutes

[francisstokesdotcom]

It's complicated - if you have a "Director" account and joined during a certain time frame, you could go longer. They discontinued that, so now I think you have to email for permission...

[francisstokesdotcom]

Dang it! Sometimes when I try to hit "reply" I end up hitting "remove". But in response to the person who asked, yes, John Hawkes is the store clerk in "Dusk til Dawn". It was seeing him in that film that inspired me to seek him out for Harold.

[hydroxybenzene]

how can i download.???????

[GuitarDemystified]

Hot Rod...came out after this. do u think Andy Samberg n co. stole the idea???

[the7upguy]

Hot Rod was originally made for Will Ferrell, not Andy Samberg, so I doubt he was involved in stealing any ideas, maybe the people that were actually in charge of the movie.

[nawerasse]

awesome thanks man for the movie

[lon82]

wow that was a good movie

[sonic554]

An excellent independent film!! I hope it gets the recognition it deserves!

[Brizzle909]

Hey im a michigan teen tryin to make it famous on youtube add or sub me

ill do the same to you

thanks :D

[BryceHolmgren]

on my birthday!

[YodelRock]

OMG hahalol

0:52:33 made me laugh su much hahah when he started to pet the dog hahaha

[Shom42]

I've been watching a lot of your guyses work. Do you have jobs as actual movie makers or series.  If you don't you should try to start a list on your account of people here who say that they'ed watch a series you make.

[joao727]

how much the movie costs you?

[bluereaperz]

reminds me of hot rod

[francisstokesdotcom]

This movie was filmed in 2001. "Hot Rod" came out in 2007.

[tamang4]

how do u get the lights off button in the top right

[DaresTub]

4:34 bottom left cinema bar FAIL!!

[MLBuckProductions]

"I don't think I'm going to be able to go to work tomorrow"

"Wanna go to the bar?"

"yeah sure!"

Lol! That was funny!

[geza96]

Great film man. My mate and myself should make our film. Hey good look out there.

[SuperTaylor332008]

is it possible to upload this thing in HD? that would bring joy to my life. i first watched it the day it was posted, long before youtube HD. and HD would make it spectaculr to watch.

[francisstokesdotcom]

Um... I don't know, but I can look into it. My master is on DigiBeta.

[alecnguyen35]

the end was kinda like the movie the wrestler

except without wrestling and with him jumping off a dam

[francisstokesdotcom]

It's funny - when I saw "The Wrestler" I thought of that! Although, in "The Wrestler", he jumps, and here...

[Tridonzo]

i really like how at the beginning u think its gonna be really low quality like corny and then you realize how its going to be an amazing movie, great job, hardly looked like an indie film congrats

[francisstokesdotcom]

Thanks! I realize I've lost a few viewers that way, but that was my intention, so I'm glad you dug it.

[olCheetahlo]

real cool :]

[jjumbojett]

I really enjoyed this movie. Good editing & transitions between scenes that made it flow seamlessly. Like "Napoleon Dynomyte", with the absent minded dreamers fumbling through life. Some slow areas but the film sucked you in.

I agree with John Hawk & Keanu Reaves said about the end of the movie. Also, I feel the story would tie better with the beggining of the adventure. The hesitation on the roof and then the final choice to make it happen. < It sounds vague but watch the movie! U'll get it.

[geekgirl45]

08:13 woot that's me at the bar drinking! This was the best indie film to work on...Frank is one helluva filmmaker and I can't wait for him to break in big time.

[larryisamazing]

that looks funny

[elfscanfly4ever]

not bad...might buy dat dvd!

[stuffnstuff123456789]

dude, i love ur movie man! i keep forgetting its an indie movie on youtube =p nice job

[legomaniac13]

lol

@ 20:00, i have that same exact flyswatter

[xKawaiiGrlx]

i just gave you a dollar lol

[kerryedomwonyi]

Love this movie but the sad thing is that people expect this film to be like the big budget films but they might know how much $ a film cost to make. tremendous work! 5/5 stars.

[deionsanders748]

you've got to be fucking kidding me!

15.50 for this shit movie?

[WhiteTproductionz]

Funny movie, I really like how even not having a big budget you managed to make a very professional looking movie and used pretty decent actors. 5/5!

[Yamui67sx]

At the beginning of the movie, around 2:20-2:30. That looks like the street my grandma lives on. lolz

[terrence0258]

Dude you are a genious. When I see a video free on YouTube the next thing I feel like doing is buying it on DVD. How are the sells going?

[Chick6517]

cool video you made! i like how there are a lot of people watching this video. haha nice. you should mst definitely make more

[lukepaduke1]

it's that one guy

[melex2000]

I want HD quality... :(

(yes, it takes not much to spoil me)

[MariposaMegan]

Thanks for making this =] I had a fun time watching it. Sometimes I feel like Harold -sigh-

[sophannaven]

nice

[Yyyyzyyy]

I enjoyed that.
