Would appreciate any feedback on a short comedy mockumentary called "Yardy A&E"
What do people think?!

That's just an unpleasant collection of stereotypes.
Are they genuine Caribbean accents?
No they are not genuine..

Thanks for the feedback. Noted.

That's just an unpleasant collection of stereotypes which isn't funny and goes on far too long.
Damn!
You win.
Yeah this didn't do anything for me either I'm afraid. Can we all please leave the mockumentary format alone? If Chris Guest doesn't want to do it anymore then I think it needs a rest.
I still love mockumentary's - I like the idea, it's got potential - I enjoyed the 'Crossed Wires' one too

Seconded.
In fact, there should be a separate 'Mockumentary' thread in Showcase.
Then we can all just ignore them.
The thing is, it's just such a bad way to learn - be it writing or film-making.
It's the filmic equivalent of abstract art, encouraging people to think they don't need the basic skills of technique & structure.
But, Picasso could daw a horse - that's the difference.
You have to learn how to be good before you can learn to be bad.

If I was the father of expressionism I don't think I'd be encouraged to spell by the offer of some excrement

I don't know about the father of expressionism, but you are the mother of double speak!

Well, I found it to be hilarious and I'm still laughing as I type.
