Dude that was awesome. I could hardly recognize Adams, that was some really good makeup.

Wait just a sec, the shotgun. Is that a painted dart-shotgun, where like the butt of it opens up and you can put extra darts in it? Good form! I totally have one of those that I've been meaning to paint.

I saw it. Very good. Good makeup on the guy.

However, the actor who played the detective needs more work on his acting skills. Not very believable.

Only one quibble with it (and one question): The tone of the movie seems to shift radically when that one guy throws the punch (that totally misses) and that music started up. It felt like a scene from "Raising Arizona" had been dropped into the middle of it.

My question: Why is the shot of the jeep driving away flipped so the plates were reversed?
huh

We had actually shot another film in the same location as this one that we weren't very proud of. We needed some filler footage and coincidentally used the same vehicle for the last film. We didn't want it to be TOO recognizable so we fliped the footage. Thanks for your kind words, and I feel as though all gripes are reasonable. All things we knew about putting the film out. Our detective is an improving an actor, but more of a crew member we have to use from time to time. He prefers the dirty work to acting really.

what the hell does his acting have anything to do with criticizing another actor?
hell I'm not much of an actor but that doesn't mean I can't criticize another actor.
Weiss, you really need to think your insults through more.

It wasn't in insult dipshit. It was a not so subtle pointing out of the obvious irony of one shitty actor critiquing a perceived poor performance. Besides, you can't blame me when the truth is offensive, I don't make the rules, I live by them.

Don't be confused either. Secrecyguy isn't an actor who gives bad performances. He is a BAD actor. Whether you want to dilute yourself and be all warm and fuzzy about it is up to you. I wish he didn't suck, it would be great for him if he didn't. But C'est La Vie.


You really ought to put more thought into your retorts.


P.S. Interesting sidenote. I never referred to myself as an actor until I finally booked my first job. Until then I was an aspiring actor at best.
