That was an excellent stinger. The rest of the video wasn't too bad either.
Also, regarding the bonus video in the Kickstarter email, when it said Cameron had suggested the music, I was expecting this, which I feel would also be pretty appropriate.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
Not the best, but it was really well-done, as always.
And that bonus video was pretty great too, even if I don't know what that music is from. What's goya dis goatse?
Also am curious as to who threw Harry.

Not quite. Look up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koyaanisqatsi
BTW, it was pretty obvious that Paul was just switching between the same two blue folders... and, to show I haven't seen him live recently, the return of Bearded Paul!

Never heard of that film, and it's as old as I am.
Also, it's more of a scruffly Paul.

I think Professional Stabbing would make an excellent addition to the Winter X-Games.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
Pretty good, but it seems a little weird that they're so quick to dismiss a few obvious dud suggestions without trying to make them work, but others are expanded on. Maybe it's just an X-games thing... at this point they just *know* what they're doing. Human cannonwall sounds great though, I'd watch it.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
The video was good, but the bonus video was gold. As soon as Harry appeared at the top of the hill, the tears of laughter were immediate.
Koyaanisqatsi was an inspired choice for the music, though based on the title, I was expecting R Kelly.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
BTW, what's with all the Monster drink product placement? I don't even know of the X Games so if it's a reference to something on that...

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
Great acting all around in this one, Beej keeping the folder without missing a beat killed me.

Will this bonus video be released for non-backers at some point in the future?
Anyway, great video.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
I really, REALLY liked this one. The script had a few great moments ("dozens of ideas here!") but what really brought this to the next level was the acting. Everyone's expressions and timing were PHENOMENAL. ALL of Graham's faces... Beej taking the folder without missing a beat... Paul's hesitation and trying to figure out what to say in the "Human cannon-wall" section... Kathleen's "why don't we leave that one... in the parking lot." All markedly great.
Also, Paul's hair. A+ super cute.

"released"? No, due to copyrighted music. However, check your PMs for what we can do with it.Robo4900 wrote:Will this bonus video be released for non-backers at some point in the future?Loads of people wrote:bonus video

On a second view, I noticed the very clever practical effect used for the pile of folders.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The New X Games
I very much like Pauls innocent concern in this one. Well acted!
