Surreal: "Birdemic" Director James Nguyen on local access TV

[HunterRossTV]

I feel almost sorry for him...

[dhkk43]

1:20... cuz i got high, cuz i got high, cuz i got high tararatatata XD

[Jokernaut823]

The two questions he asked are never explained in the film, love that

[90talisten]

White people love James Nguyen, because he makes Uwe Boll.. look like Malcom X.

[InfestedOne557]

If they contacted him because they thought it was real birds, they must be drunk at all times.

[onecrazylemming]

James Nguyen is the only director that can direct in the 11th dimension because James Nguyen discovered how to break through the barrier. James Nguyen is M-theory itself.

[LAWLoROFL]

you can tell she is tring not to laugh

[BossPanzer]

How much did he paid that woman to make an interview with him ?

[bloodrunsclear]

I can only imagine Nguyen thought 'I fooled them with the birds NOW I'll fool them with this interview!'

[aolyahoo]

fake

[judgeman090]

@aolyahoo how is it fake? it's just that the film was so bad and so low-budget that they couln't afford a premiere for a release trailer

[aolyahoo]

@judgeman090

no I meant the content of the movie! you can clearly tell that those birds are digitally generated. You can tell from the pixels. fake

[judgeman090]

@aolyahoo oh right..ah

[NYCTJC]

Is the interviewer drunk?

[Skelerex2007]

Even a embryo would make a better film. 

[NICOaLBerT69]

this is a joke right?! he cannot seriously think that this was a good movie

[kinghani]

I cannot wait for Birdemic 2 3D because it's the only way for Nguyen to go having already mastered two dimensions.

[CAvideoFAN]

@kinghani LOL! I thought you were joking... Birdemic II: The Resurrection 3D is coming soon

[grassfell]

@kinghani, even 3D can't do justice for a Director of Nguyen's brilliance. Even 4D isn't ready for Nguyen.

[defspeed11]

I'm pretty sure after hearing this the American humane society is filled with a bunch of retards.

[yesman2079]

@defspeed11 That's what I thought when I first heard it but they probably just saw that a film was made about birds they were unaware of, then contacted him not knowing whether there were real birds in the film.

[DillH117]

it's good to know he went to a great film school and knew what he was doing, otherwise making a shitty rip off of an older movie could of been a bad decision with a $200 budget and no experience.

[jveezy18]

lol its funny how this shitty director is looking so confident after making such a disgraceful movie

[crazybuizel]

This video went up on my birthday! lol

[spaceagedevice]

This 6 minute interview had more dialogue than the first 88 minutes of Birdemic.

[Kodocha7]

I love how they thought the animated gif birds were real LAWL

[benco007]

the birds looked like the effect that i use to use on my crappy digital blue movie maker program when i was 6.

[itsmedoingthis]

You know this is normally a pretty good show, I think the fact that she was interviewing him made it seem awkward

[TheForgottenFlesh]

Where is the $10,000 they spent? I don't see it.

[toucansam3]

Isn't there a porno somewhere that's missing a director?

[ConnorGunn]

3:25

Those were cgi? I couldn't tell

[nadya2411]

is he michele phan cousin or something?

[Iaintnobuster]

This interview is almost as good as the film

[Arkile]

For computer graphics and a low budget, these birds do look very real and terrorized me when I watched the movie

[chosentonessournotes]

@Arkile Are... Are you serious? You're serious... Wow. You must be mentally challenged. No, WORSE than mentally challenged, because those birds were so horribly done (even on a small budget) that I doubt even retarded people would believe those were real. In some scenes entire flocks of cut/pasted birds are soaring, and in another cluster they're flapping furiously the entire time. They look real? Give me a break. Either something's wrong with you, or you work for Moviehead.

[deathstardisko]

@Arkile Are you on crack?

[gothicspoon]

@Arkile

There are many, many amateurs, and even little kids, who make better quality effects at no cost. This would have been ok in the 60's-70's!

[TheNVRSLPS]

@gothicspoon

Hitchcock made the Birds in the 60's and the effects were better than this!

[SuperSonicDonk3y]

There is no way he watched the final result and said to him self "hey, this turn out pretty good!"

[XxP1NAxX]

3:24 the birds look real? He must be joking.

[3o8man]

i include myself inthat, or haven taken 6 mins of my life on this earth to watch this!

[3o8man]

i hope everyone assosiated with this film dies !

[BadgerStyler]

"They look pretty real"

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[yttikazyttikiz]

"Okay, be nice, you don't know this man."

OH GOD, EVEN SHE KNOWS IT SUCKS AND SHE'S INTERVIEWING HIM LMFAO

[rubino83]

Oh he thinks it's honestly good.

Well... I guess we can strike this one off my bad-movie night. I'm not rewarding this hack if he's gonna Uwe Boll it up on television about how great he is.

[Tewkii]

Can't decide whether he's wearing make-up or not...

[DCshoes102]

Hahahaha porn videos have better quality and acting than this garbage

[DiscoChinchilla]

I've seen Syfy movies with better CGI and acting than this movie and that's saying something. I heard they made it on a budget of $10,000, which makes no sense whatsoever because I've seen youtube videos showing better CGI from Adobe After Effects and it only costs a couple hundred dollars. Actually, I've made animated gif's that have better quality that these birds.

[TEHGROUND]

@DiscoChinchilla Lol, with Adobe After Affects you could buy a model helicopter/plane, put it together, and then use that and it looks real. And it only costs 30$ XD

I found a video which showed how good it was, sadly I can't find it again, if I did I would show you it.

[chosentonessournotes]

@DiscoChinchilla I've seen shit from the late 80s/early 90s that looked better and more realistic than those birds. The budget must have gone on to the hotel room, the single shaky camera they used, a trip to Taco Bell, and to the two kids' moms so they would be allowed out to play. In fact, I bet the most expensive thing in this movie was the gas to go between locations.

[ApreciaTV]

How the fuck did this lady get her own show

[GodsBurden]

@ApreciaTV She's also in the movie. What the shit.

[NekoValtz]

@ApreciaTV

She paid for it herself. I'd say she slept with someone.... but come on those birds have more of a chance of being real.

[Se7enxNinja]

there is gonna be a sequel.......i hate to say it but i wanna see it

[Chazfazzer]

If this film was better than his first 2, I'd like to see what the others were like. I'm guessing the first one probably gave you a brain hemorrhage the moment you turned it on.

[Alois76]

Is the interview also directed by James Nguyen?

[Mattashi]

@Alois76 I think so and the woman on the left is probably his wife

[Spawnen]

"They look pretty real"

wat

[Smackeldorf1]

Roll on the sequel (apparently in 3D)

[XMcMuffinX]

what a TOOL

[Zenstudent105]

5:33-5:37 what the hell is she doing?

[x0xDarthWyylokx0x]

it's homage, it's a fucking piss take

[FinnyMaHBoy99]

this lady's such a dumbass

[tylerluvsallie]

birddemic aka the room 2

[cracmanXD]

The director of this movie could have at least used real birds for this movie,and that way it wont recieve that many critisim

[dannypfan007]

this guy is such an awful director!

He makes Ed Wood look like Stanley Kubrick

by comparison!

[xnightshadyx]

I feel like I'm watching a really long Tim and Eric skit.

[legorocks3]

WORST interviewer ever!

[librabeauty23]

O hai James Nguyen

[AltoCat1]

Not since the Room, Troll 2, and Cool as Ice has a film been so splendidly filmed. The camera editing, acting, and overall writing of the film 'Birdemic' is truly something amazing to behold.

...Really.

[JMKmusic]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting some serious Annie Wilkes vibes from this woman...

[ogopolo]

3:00 HAS TO BE A JOKE

[HarpoFitz]

@ogopolo If it isn't, I'd wager there's some mental deformity that makes him believe its ANYTHING resembling SLIGHTLY realistic. And i'm only being about 20% sarcastic. How else would you explain this interview?

Watching other people ail so epicly is so uplifting. Bless his little heart.

[ogopolo]

@HarpoFitz yea man people like this are so inspirational

[beesfeet]

@ogopolo The joke is that he likely mistook the AHS's concern as meaning his CGI was THAT realistic.

[MarijnStevens]

I'm waiting for his miljoen movie... perhaps that one is watchable.

[bloodrunsclear]

'You're not watching The Birds...'

Um...no shit.

I do like how the audio cuts out when it zooms in on him. A more fitting tribute to his film I can't imagine.

[sexypadri]

is that guy serious??!

[wolfwoods12]

@sexypadri

Saddly, I think he is.

ABC News talked to him.

Either he is lying through his teeth, or he is so oblivious and really thinks this is good.

[fosponomot]

its an homage to shit.

[Spiffo12]

With a shit like that, he will become cult very soon ^^ (maybe already the case!)

[GregDad100]

The hostess seems to be doing a Patty Duke impersonation from "The Miracle Worker."

[dewhistle]

Alright, I give up. I just spent more time than anyone should trying to figure out whether this guy is serious about his filmmaking or a creator of clever fakes. The crumminess seems too consistent to be accidental but there's just enough reason to think he's serious... But then I look at the oddball interviewer and his too-short trousers and the danged coathangers in the famous slip and wonder how "Ed Wood" can a man get these days without trying? Anyone got any new info?

[Dalek1230]

3:27 LOL

[spicymeatsandwich]

People are so racist towards azns. If this was made by a white person it'd be a cult classic. RACISTS!

[TheStonedSlackerNZ]

@spicymeatsandwich FUCKING OATH BRO!

By the way, this movie is CLEARLY a piss take. Great acting in this interview by Nguyen, a commendable effort.

[Vexed34]

Is she trying to use sign language? What's with the flailing about? All around a fascinating piece. If only writer's these days could invent such colorful, ridiculously serious characters.

[xxxEmoRinsxxx]

what we should be asking is how the hell does he still has a job wow he made the blar witch movie look like a master peace

[LukeLovesRose]

Is this a joke?

Why is anyone interviewing this director for this CRAP film??

[Chrisyade]

It's the Springtime for Hitler of environmental suspense movies! I love Matt Pais' comment, "I must recognize that this stunningly terrible romance-turned-science-fiction­-horror-turned-environmental-m­essage-movie had a budget of roughly $5.66."

That pretty much sums up the whole film.

[MrElias]

The sound on his mic ís almost as good as the movie itself...

[BATCHARRO]

The story about the Humane society is obviously fake. There's no way people that concerned with suffering ever even attempted to watch this crap. How would they even know?

[mannycalavera7]

does anyone else think this woman looks like an overweight Kristen Schaal?

[PullMyPeeper]

sneaky gook bastard this movie is a trap

[OWRBtheo]

I'm pretty sure that James Nguyen is the messiah.

[lilbunneh123]

1. Awesome graphics

2. Awesome acting

nuff said.

[steelerfan770]

birdemic birds are the shittiest graphics ever

[steelerfan770]

you suck ass

[SlaveExplosion]

Birdemic 2 is also in 3D LMFAO HAHHAHAA I cannot even begin to imagine this film :O

[SlaveExplosion]

Oh.. wait this movie was for real? BAHAHA HOLY CRAP.

[akacpkiller21]

fisgures....

an asian made it.

[psiprophet]

I think he was contacted by the humane society because it's fucking IN-humane to expose the American film audience to this utter SHIT!

[djjerc]

this lady is not worthy for james nguyen

[funnyguy1012]

wow they're both retarted

[BlueBoat709]

the funny thing is the host of this show WAS IN THE FUCKING MOVIE!!!!!

[hungsolo90]

Birdemic is the best movie ever made and im not even joking

[julesreverie]

CLEARLY we're not wating the movie The Birds lady

[ConfusedSponge]

The Human Society are morons. A retarded 2 year old could tell that the birds were clearly animated!

[Cireneg]

@ConfusedSponge the birds were animated??

[ConfusedSponge]

@Cireneg haha very funny ;-)

[Cireneg]

@ConfusedSponge :D

[Luffy55555]

This man will go down into the same part of cinema history that Scorcese, Copolla, and Capra will. This man is a living legend.

[IndyFlie]

This guy looks like he's waiting for a flood. He and Uwe Boll should get together.

[DeimosSaturn]

Brilliant viral marketing. The production studio must be attempting to raise money for a real project by producing a cheap and intentionally awful movie which will catch on as a cult legendary bad movie, like The Room. Paul O tried to do the same thing with his movie "Gap", but this guy, James Nguyen, knows what he is doing. I have to give him Kudos.

[ConfusedSponge]

@DeimosSaturn Intentionally? I don't think so. No pne could make a movie that bad intentionally. Birdemic is just so bad.

[chieyX13]

Movie "FAIL"

[thepiratesofsound123]

I can see why the Humane Society asked about the birds, since they look so realistic! And did Tommy Wiseau produce this or co-direct this?

[miraeja]

does that fat chick have down syndrome

[SonOfFurzehatt]

The world's worst director meets the world's worst TV presenter. For a minute I thought she was signing for the deaf.

[MetisLeigh]

I didn't care what happened to the protagonists . . . guess he failed.

[TK7517]

the humane society called me up and asked if there were any birds hurt in the making of the film.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­A. wow ppl are retarded

[Scootondown]

Damn, who let James Nguyen run his own microphone sound at the beginning there?

[malcolmjacobson]

lol

[studz990]

i could make a better movie on microsoft powerpoint

[TheHermanoBluth]

@studz990 Well, I can make a far better movie on microsoft word

[FOOLYCOOLY]

@TheHermanoBluth Hahahaha!

[CalamityCain]

@studz990

Dude, NO ONE could make a better movie with what equipment whatsoever ;)

[GrandPoobahChuckyB]

@studz990 and how (im agreeing)

[Ultrox007]

@studz990 I've seen better made in flash...  I believe it's called "Teh Cliff"

[TaleBulleta]

@studz990 I bet you could do i with a disposable photo camera

[kmb1794]

James Nguyen guy is the William Hung of directing.

[nyamcz]

@kmb1794 yes, agree

[donniedarkodevotte]

@kmb1794

More like he's the M Night of directing, minus the budget.

[BlueHen123]

BIRDEMIC!!! IT LOOKS HORRIBLE!!

[borntoend94]

This woman's obvioulsy taking the piss. I suppose she doesn't get art.
