Well I was glad it wasn't Youtube hosted. I like this player much more. Also, in the credits, Paul's name appears twice under "Shooting".

I loved the Oppenheimer quote remix and the fact that the ball kicking robot is a she. Also, nice job with the bobble head doll motif.
I liked how this episode played out and I don't think it was too slow at all. There were a lot more one-on-one interactions and the new camera style picked up more whole conversations between people which allowed for more truthful reactions in my mind. Bill's reactions to Morgan's lines where particularly choice. As Meisner advocates, you have to put your attention on the other person to create truthful reactions. (I'm paraphrasing of course)

Ok, enough of the poncy stylistic notes. Hilarious video. I can't wait to see the next one.

1) Really, Kathleen? D cups? I can see why teh youtubes were unimpressed; the video itself did not at all do them justice. It might be wardrobe, it might be something about the video itself, such as perspective or some strange optical effect, but they looked much larger in this video than they did in 'I herd u liek...'

Not obsessing or anything, I just registered the complaint and thought I'd help explain. Perhaps my faith in humanity is too optimistic.

Your bust is feminine and attractive please don't call me a perv but in a way you sort of asked.

2) "I am become death, destroyer of balls" is an all-time favorite.

This video gets...

(Apologies for stealing whyarecarrots' pun.)

Special commendations go to...
* Anyone who contributed to the writing. It was great from start to finish.
* Morgan, for his fantastic delivery of "maybe you will, but the YouTube comments have clearly defined my role as 'that douche with the jacket who kicks people in the balls.'" Actually, commendation to Morgan for pretty much everything he says in that scene. Oh! Oh! And "Damn skippy!"
* Bill, come to think of it, for playing the (relatively) straight man so well in that scene.
* Paul, for his fantastic scene. "I am become death. Destroyer of balls."
* Tally and Jer's RE5 conversation about racism :lol:

* Graham. He wasn't on camera much this episode, but he can't even seem to peak his head in for a moment without spewing awesome all over everything. Way to lick that bobble-head Graham.

My only minor criticism is that the degree of emotion in Matt and James' voices don't always seem to match their facial expressions. For instance, when James is saying "Why are you in my house?!", he sounds pretty aggravated, but his face looks reasonably calm (although not exactly happy). One might argue that James is just a calm guy, but if he's calm, his voice should be calm too. Their expressions are quite good a lot of the time (e.g. Matt's surprise the second time James threatens him with the knife, or James' face when he first opens the door), it's just the little revealing lapses that occasionally throw things off a little. Great comedic timing though. Acting's just hard, I guess.

Overall, it was a great episode, as usual.

YEAH! I heart the Commodore Hustle. It make me smile big. And I can't keep up that bizarre speech pattern. But, yeah, Leno! Sweetness. Did you guys get contacted by them at all or did they just pull it straight from YouTube?

I really liked the over-shoulder shots!

And the little bonding session the ladies have over how irritating the guys gaming habits are.

When I grow up I want to be just like Kathleen

good episode but now all I remember is how great that video store looks. I swear I saw a copy of Mortal Kombat 2 for the snes in the background but could be wrong, but I know for sure I saw El Topo. Need more good video stores around.

plus the issue is kathleens video is that the outfit was not showing much cleavage, hard for young boys to find that exciting when the next video over is a girl in a bikini doing the same thing. Next time, corset, then you win the internet. On a side note I do know a girl locally that makes them. so you know, think about it

Okay, what did Graham dip his pip-boy into?

You know, only after finishing the video once and going back to watch it again did I understand what the slurping sound just before Greame put the pip-boy down on the xbox was

I second that. I know you guys have been busy this week, but I'd be satisfied with even a little update/teaser :?:

Isn't pip-boy the computer on the wrist and the bobblehead's name is Vault Boy?

I really enjoyed the gag pointing out that James is the most sane and stable person in the cHustle cast. I've long been a fan of James' gravitas and his various long-suffering straight-man characters.

Unfortunately the thousand or so dollars it would cost has to go to some other stuff...

Care to share then......?

Also, Scrotal Assault should go on tour with the Foreskins.

Coming back to this late, sorry.

The "other stuff" is bills. Weddings are expensive, turns out.

The thousand-dollar bill is a good mobile RC chassis, a 4-channel FM RC kit, a couple of linear actuators, a simple pneumatic system with a long-throw piston, and a boot. Most of the stuff is available from my very favourite robot stuff website, The Robot MarketPlace.

Septavius · Postby **Septavius** » 07 Apr 2009, 09:29

It seems like if you were handy with RC stuff to begin with (which I am certainly not), that'd be a fairly simple thing to build. Certainly it isn't too mechanically complex. Perhaps being able to automate its navigation and timing so it can find a target and land the boot would be quite a challenge (I am not a software expert either).

Just a comment after the fact, but I didn't think the "I herd u liek" video was a good idea in the first place.

After all, from google: Results 1 - 10 of about 38,700,000 for breasts.

With 38.7 million results to compete with, and nothing special/humourous/weird about the video, it's a no-brainer to figure that a single video couldn't make an impact.

You're also competing against this:
Results 1 - 10 of about 235,000,000 for porn

And recall that the few porn-related internets that have made it viral include goatse, tubgirl, 2 girls 1 cup . . .

edit: that is to say, the failure of the video had nothing to do with the quality of the tits, music, or otherwise. It was simply trying to compete in a well-saturated market with nothing special to offer.

I really thought that space-jump would be a larger contester, though.
