Pizza Noir for the win!

Also, these are some of the most impressive effects you've ever done.

That was great, I though Kathleen was amazing!

I also laughed a bit when when Graham needed to "Jimmy" the lock

One of the best LRR vids in quite some time - not to say the recent ones have been bad (How to LRR was amazing!) but this was just... amazing. Very, very well done. (And agreed on the quality of the effects - stunning!)

Way to start Season 7 off with one hell of a bang!

So does paul have the ability to just sprout an impressive beard or was it fake, Kind of hard to tell with the grainy black and white.

Good start to 7th season anyway.

Kathleen was really good in that one. Black and white really brings out....something.

And of course, props to everybody else.

Excellent job all around =) Effects, writing, music, acting. All aces.

You went a little overboard on the contrast here.

Just kidding. Loved the visual style on this one & the reference to the classic "30 Minutes or Less" vid. I would have started off with a couple more static shots to misdirect & make people familiar with the original think that it would be mostly still images again, but it still worked. It was really interesting seeing that effect in motion. Did you have to adjust the settings in-camera or is it a filter applied after filming?

There was a bit of yellow colouration on the "blackmail" sceen. Did anyone else see it?

The best part for me was the "the accident"; I can't believe I've never seen that joke done before. Also, Jimmy. Just great. And generally the quality of the effects. Awesome.

Also, Kathleen: damn you're sexy in that video.

I actually liked the stills from the first one better added more style but this was also good. Going to try and repeat best writing with this at VIFF?

Paul's fake beard did not come work in the black and white but still good.

I cheered just from seeing the promo image. Love that style.

Here's hoping the next revisit four years from now is in IMAX.

NICE! Glad to have the comeback of a classic, plus the way you ended this one, well it certainly sounds like you're planning more.

My favorite part was definitely "Jimmying the lock."

Edit: Had to hit submit three times due to people posting so much.

Great job guys. The music worked amazingly well. Spot on deliveries all around. It seemed like the smoke from the cigarettes caused a some blocky pixillation, oh well, still looked pretty.

OK, big fan of the intense/in tents joke. I use it all the time. I laughed so loud my roomie knocked on my door to make sure I was OK.

Very well done Graham. The switch from stills threw me for a bit, but I think it worked. Was Andy Jimmy? And finally, was Saucy McNeil the same characters as Ash's from the original?

Also, duggled.

Great video! There's no better way to start off a season than with a throwback to an old fan favorite (or with a 64k song, I'm waiting for the next one).

No and no.

VISFF worthy! I wonder though, have you all started to consider VISFF submissions or are you going to wait for a while?

Anyway, I loved Kathleen's performance the most, because with the contrast and black and white filtration, her character was just great. The boots she was wearing didn't seem to go well with the video though. Black patent leather pumps would have been the better character choice, but if that's the only criticism I have for it, clearly it's awesomesauce. LRR Secret Recipe Southwest Awesomesauce.

Damn those jobber hats.

I thought the characters may have been the same due to the "no one delivers like you, Johnny" line. Guess I'm wrong. Ah well, first time for everything.
