THE THREAD FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE NEW ASK LRR QUESTION THREAD

[Yukikaze]

Perhaps I made a math error, but wouldn't you have to be going about 18.4 km/hr to make the jump?

That's about 11 miles/hr. Not too bad - top normal human running speed is supposed to be about 15 miles/hr for most people - but a challenge.

I top out around 17 MPH, for about 5 seconds.

Maybe more, now. I've been running around with a backpack and a rather heavy laptop for the past couple of months.

um... question, question... How fast can the various LRR crew members run?

[Vadim]

If you guys were asked to do a series of TV commercials for some product, what type of products would you refuse to endorse?
(obviously of products that companies are allowed to have commercials on TV for.)

[iceberg1972]

Is there anything y'all like at all about Final Fantasy VII?

[SecretSpiceRack]

-Do y'all get pissed off when people asked questions that have already been answered in your pod casts?

-What do you think of your earliest videos? Where they made before LoadingReadyRun?

-Who would win in a fight: Ryu Hayabusa or Master Chief?

-If you said Ryu, is there anyone who could beat Ryu ... other than Abraham Lincoln?

[Woland]

Do you consider what you do "acting"? In your own opinions, can any of you "act"?

[SecretSpiceRack]

How many clicks and do y'all get on the revver ads, and how much does each click earn you?

Why do you seem to know so much about Abraham Lincoln and various United States presidents? (you should look up Theodore Roosevelt)

[Jermo]

For the Doctor Who fans off LRR which incarnation of The Doctor is your favorite?

Additionally if you had your own TARDIS with knowledge of how to use it where would you go?

Would you ultimately end up making a Paradox that would destroy the Universe?

[The Pious Flea]

Everybody's looking for something:

Some of them want to use you,
some of them want to get used by you,
some of them want to abuse you,
some of them want to be abused.

Which of these four categories do the LRR cast members fall into, individually?

[tak197]

Eurythmics FTW, people. Seriously.

Anyway, what are your thoughts on global warming? Do we need a theromostat, or just to be removed from the warming tray?

Also, thoughts on the following movies in the works...

Alvin and the Chipmunks (starring Jason Lee as Dave with CGI chipmunks)
Reboot (the kickass cartoon from the 90's)

[Lacerta]

Abort, Retry, or Fail?

[Ishamel]

Seriously, why do you guys keep on making videos for us for free??? That's like altruism TO THE EXTREEEEME!! I mean thanks and all but any normal person would have given up by now.
On a more positive note, four more years!

[Lector]

If you were a video game controller, which would you be and why?

[Sable]

How do you do "slow motion" scenes (like the opening for "The Truce")? Is it just slowing down the normal (I assume) 24 frames-per-second (Again, assuming your camera is 1920x1080/24 progressive) capture, or can you set your camera to capture at higher framerates and then play it back at 24fps?

[Iverix]

-What is the worst thing you've accidentally (or purposefully) stepped in?

-What was your best will-never-happen-again moment.

What I mean, is something that could really only happen once by complete fluke. An example of something I did under this category was swish a basketball behind my back from full court in my sophomore year in highschool. (4 years ago)

[Unclever title]

Say the (insert local government authority figure here) was kidnapped by ninjas... Do any of you consider yourselves bad enough dudes to rescue the (insert local government authority figure here)? If not who is the closest?

Also, is this a plausible explanation, oh wait I mean is this the reason why Bill has been fighting ninjas?

On a lighter note, ever considered walking on hot coals?

[Unlucky]

Hey, hey LRR. First question I've posed towards ya and here it goes....
Apologies in advance if this has been answered before but:
>Do you guys watch any Sci-Fi?
And if so,
>What are they?
> Do you have a favourite?
And
>How often do you watch them?

[Woland]

first, whose map of Moscow is that in the Truce video?

second, do you ever regret putting a message board/forum on your site?

[tak197]

I think you may have answered a question about which show you prefer out of Kids in the Hall, SNL, and MadTV. But I am wondering...

Which recurring sketches or characters from SNL, MadTV, and Kids in the Hall: (A) do you call your favourite, (B) do you imitate the best, and (C) makes you laugh the most?

Also, what incarnation of popcorn do you like the most: caramel, kettle, movie butter, salted, toffee butter almond, popcorn balls, ect.?

Is there any food that chocolate cannot make taste better (such as squid in Hawaii [no joke, look it up])?

[Lector]

Anyone a fan of Firefly/ Serenity?

[Dr Frankenjam]

Anyone a fan of Firefly/ Serenity?

They better be or i'm leaving the site forever.

You guys spend enough time as it is on the weekly videos... so why in the name of all that is holy did you just start up TWO new projects? Do you guys even sleep anymore?

[Brett.50]

If all of the Final Fantasy characters went up against each other, who do you think would win?

[Woland]

Among your little slice of Canada, (and all indigenous Canadian comedy aside), what do people find more enjoyable: British Comedy (Little Britain, Coupling, Monty Python, etc.) or American Comedy (South Park, Family Guy, the Simpsons, The Muppet Show, etc. ?

[Tensen01]

Were there to be a set of LRR Commemorative Postage Stamps, and you had to choose 4 scenes to be forever immortalized and respresent LRR, what would they be?

[Zeophlite]

Does it snow much where you guys live?

And to follow on: Can you guys redo "Ways to Keep Cool", but in winter?

[Woland]

I was looking at the pics on the blog of the Truce shot and a couple of technical questions came to mind

Does your dolly have stoppers on the end? What happens when the truck reaches the end and no one is paying attention? does it just hit the ground?

Also, is there a camera trick used to make it look like Jer (I think it's Jer) is jumping so high off the ground (an angle or something) or can he just jump really high?
