Phailhaüs 30
May 27th, 2010

It’s been a while since your most recent fix of phail, but the wait is over! Courtesy of Graham and Kathleen, here’s Phailhaus 30:

This episode was edited by Kathleen, who finally has a computer to do it with again. Now that she does, there should be a slightly more consistent flow of Phailhausen for your viewing pleasure.

Some of you may be wondering why this is episode 30, when the previous Phailhaus is number 28. The reason for that is that episode 29 has been ready for a while, but YouTube has been refusing to let us upload it. Hopefully that will go up at some point, but until then, this can be a bit of LRRWiki fodder for all of you trivia lovers.

Enjoy!

Installation Anxiety 2010

This week’s video is here! Go check it out!

Naturally, this is a remake of this video. (which you may, or may not, have seen before).

In the forum thread on this video, James has answered some questions you may have about this video, which I have re-posted below:

Why did we remake this?
As most of you know, we were invited to w00tstock this year to showcase some of our videos. We decided that Installation Anxiety was a great video and could play really well with that type of audience (It totally did by the way). But we quickly realized that while it was a solid video, its production values no longer reflect what we are capable of making. So we decided to re-shoot it. Once w00tstock was over, we discussed using it as one of our regular weekly updates. After several talks we decided to go for it for it. We know there will be a couple people that won’t agree, but we are proud of the remake and wanted to showcase it.

Are you going to remake more?
Who knows. It won’t become a regular thing, so for those who think we copped out this week, don’t worry. It won’t happen again anytime soon. Brand new, totally original content returns next week, and the week after that, and the week after that, and the week after that. After that I can’t make any promises as we haven’t planned that far ahead.

I’d like to amend to that that there are a few videos in our back catalog that we have definitely considered remaking in the past, and we may still do so in the future. But this is certainly not going to become a regular thing, with this video we simply wanted to give it a try and see how it worked.
