Smallpox

1:20 - BOOM IN THE SHOT. FIRE BILL.

[Cybren]

Wait, there's young republicans in canada?

1:20 - BOOM IN THE SHOT. FIRE BILL.

That wasn't Bill though. That was Raymond.

[Cybren]

i didn't notice the boom in the shot, though once i knew to look for it i did. I did, however, notice grahams reflection in the window

It's always Bill, they just don't want to look mean so they credit other people from time to time. Graham's a tricky one!

I don't understand the opening ad. I mean, if you're going to be parodying/mimicking those Most Interesting Man in the World ads, shouldn't you be using hyperbole?

[King Rocky IV]

I like how this was all done in one shot. It made it seem more...genuine?

Was there a cut roughly halfway through when the camera does a 180? It looked vaguely familiar, like the opening scene of Serenity where Simon and Mal are walking around that corner and they use a whip-pan to hide the set change. And on that note...

You are doing a masters in medieval studies and now Nathan Fillion is starring in a show called Castle.

Connect the dots, people!

Sorry, what? Those two aren't even vaguely related. I mean, Brad is cool and all, with his surprisingly intelligent and dexterous penis, but he's no Nathan Fillion.

Edit: Please nobody quote that.

Have we seen Nathan Fillion and Brad on stage at the same time?

Master Gunner, I LOVE offensisensitivy, which is one more reason why I despise that ending all the more.

Also...I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed Jer's smiling...I always feel like a jerk when I comment on you guys as actors, so I don't...

Why do I always sound so negative? I _LOVE_ LRR, honestly and truly.

[Jillers]

This is a meh one for me. But that happens now and again.

[Cade Antilles]

I wasn't grooving with this one 'til the very end. Then, I busted up laughing. A small part of me wanted to stop watching early, but I'm so glad I stuck with it.

And Brad, say it ain't so, bro! Curse you and your being all studious and productive with your life an' shit! I'll miss you and your manly chin, dude!

[King Rocky IV]

Wow, two minutes later. I'll never talk about superhuman wangs again.

[Triangular]

Awesome beginning. Loved it

[dls182]

I really liked that one. Tim was hilarious. He seems to have the slightly dopey guy down (also in commodoreHUSTLE)
Graham's reflection in the window made the video even better.

And the Brad-ad was probably the best (and longest) shirt ad you've had

[The LRR-Metroid Fan]

OMG That was short, but veerrrrry sweet! Great, awesome job! Tim rox.

[Tim]

Thanks. I was trying for a non-dopey guy, but I guess I get typecast a little. Heh.

It was nice to play a different character than I do in cH, even if I didn't really act it as differently as I would've liked.

[wilson_x1999]

Great Ad and I enjoyed the video too.

We'll miss seeing you on the videos Brad, take care and take a few pictures of the sun, since you won't be seeing it for a while :3

[Karmic Knight]

Thanks. I was trying for a non-dopey guy, but I guess I get typecast a little. Heh.

The arguing for calling a political organization 'smallpox' is hard to dodge appearing a bit dopey, which makes the twist, where the guy arguing for smallpox is much more devious than first appearance, all the more funny.

While your character was, in my opinion, dopey, I got the impression that he knew he was being dopey, and was doing it to deliberately bug Jer's character.
However in cH he was straight-out dopey, consequently bugging Geoff.

Either that or I'm the dopey one

[Trisha Lynn]

Honestly, Tim? My favorite character of yours so far has been stand-up comedian guy and the more I think about it, the cHustle-Tim and this dude (whose name we never get) seem to be very much related to him.

This honestly made me chuckle, and when coupled with the Brad T-shirt ad made me smile. In fact, the ad was almost enough to make me switch LRR-cast member allegiances, but only slightly.

...it kinda is the chin...

[Genghis Ares]

You know, the videos usually have Ads attached to them, but this one kind of feels like the video was attached to the Ad. The Ad was hilarious and brilliant, but the video was sort of lacking.

The joke itself was kind of lacking, but still amusing. I like the long take part of it, but there are a couple of goofs that make it feel weird.

The reflection in the windows feels like it could have been avoided.

The pan over when Jer gestures to the building would have probably been better if the pan had gone to the right, as if to go towards what Jer is pointing to, rather than going left and sort of breaking the flow.

And then what looks like a sleeve or something pops into shot for a few seconds near the end in the lower right corner.

[Metcarfre]

Wait, there's young republicans in canada?

Yes, in fact they have a club at UVic.

I thought it was pretty quick but neat. I always have fun with these when I recognize the setting. I almost feel that the vid could have been written just a touch tighter, so you have a great, long ad and a snappy little video to follow. I liked it, though.

Fun fact; the only lab samples of smallpox in the world are currently held at the CDC in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

[SamwiseG]

this isnt meant to discredit this weeks video but i have to say the ad is what really made my day. gj all.

[Flewellyn]

I'm gone for a year doing a masters in medieval studies at York.

*ahem* "In England."

Had to.

Anyway, will you perchance send a video report on the state of things there?

[Gordon Fearman]

Best T-shirt ad ever.

Oh yeah, and the video was pretty cool too.
