Thomas J. Buxtehude Critiques the 2010 48 Hour Film Losers (Des Moines, IA)

On August 12, 2010 the "Top 12" 48 hour films from Des Moines, IA were screened at a special red carpet event. Amidst widespread dissatisfaction with many of the judges' high-budget picks, an after party was thrown next door to the theater where six rejected low-budget atrocities were shown. Thomas J. Buxtehude graciously agreed to defend city producer Sam Tuomi and critique the losers in a pre-recorded video message.

With under 12 hours to go, Shrieking Tree was tasked with creating an opening monologue for the 2010 Des Moines 48 Hour Film After Party. This is the resulting video.

[dmusgrave]

well done, sir. i was really hoping for more fake blood in this intro, but many thanks for the link.

[JustinNorman]

@dmusgrave Unfortunately, Artemis Foxtoothe never did find us calling his blood "fake" amusing, and refused to let us have any more of it. Ah, well. Live and learn.

we had to cut my mustache sex scene for time

[JustinNorman]

@funkyfunkyjoe That excuse is not legitimate. Legitimize it and then return for re-evaluation.

[AmericanPianist]

I was the audio editor/composer for Broken Image. I've taken your advice to heart, Mr. Buxtehude, and I shall petition that Yellow Sandwich do so as well!

... ...

Seriously though - hilarious.

@AmericanPianist Your thanks have been forwarded to the man himself. Mr. Buxtehude is pleased to offer his wisdom to anyone who is willing to pay his immense fees. Fortunately, he was mutilated by geese before he could collect his payment from us.
