Man, Version 2 Page 3

Great to see it live and finished. Excellent job done by David, sound guys and the narrator.

Very professional. Did get a bit gory with the head stuff but part of the fun I suppose (though had no problem with blood and an arm on the groin and ripping apart a chest :P) Ribcage bottle opener was very clever and whilst I can see how you were making the point about the perfect drinker, I initially just thought they were trying to make the perfect man; The beer advert at the end surprised me. Could alter the voiceover slightly to make it clearer or just let it stand with the visuals.

BUSSELL!!!!

BUSSELL!!!!

Yeeees?

Excellent writing and animation. I'm a bit worried the guy may turn into an alcoholic. You should enter it into this weeks sketch comp as the topic is 'advert'.

New version now up complete with dialogue tweaks.

Fantastical my friends, well done.

:)

That I really like very slick.

Love the punchline.

Brilliant.

End Transmission.

Only just got round to watching it.

I liked it. From the original script, I thought this was going to be a bit too gory to be funny, but you stayed on the right side of taste in my opinion.

The only one thing I thought didn't seem right was when the brain gets blasted at the end. How do we know it's his brain receptors getting frazzled? It looks more like he's being killed.

I didn't like this.

I'd like to see it burned in a pit with a big fat man so it burns quicker.

I see your point. He's meant to be lobotomised, hence the pleasured sigh and the fact that he's still staggering and moaning at the end, but the final collapse might well led you to believe he's perished.

Is it the violence you reject to?

It was brilliant, I really liked it David, and I got that he was being lobotomised.I think it's the best animation I've seen from Shoepie too; great stuff all round!

Who cares?? And violence in comedy has a great and long tradition.
