Giving It

Postby Matt » 09 Jul 2012, 11:02

A video of four-letter words, and words of other lengths too.

1) I count two call-backs actually, one to the Warriors of Darkness, which was of course amazing, but the other one, equally as amazing in my opinion, was to [urlhttp://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/loadingreadyrun/1866-106-7-The-Drive]106.7: The Drive[/url]. Just to be clear, I completely love your call-backs, and please keep doing them. Even if they're really obscure ones.

2) MORGAN!!
You know, I was actually kind of disappointed that the character in this video was called Tristan, cause until then I had thought that this was just Morgan being Morgan. And he does it so well. :D

3) The only other minor quibble I have with this otherwise superb video is that it needed Alex Steacy at the beginning saying "Hi, I'm LoadingReadyRun's Alex Steacy. I'm not in this video, but you know what is? Lots and lots of swearing. Just to let you know. Enjoy the video!". But that's fine, Alex is a busy man as I understand it.
It's not even really a quibble, just something that would have turned the video from superb into sublime. :P

4) I'm going to imagine that a PB+H sandwich consists of Peanut Butter and Halloumi. It sounds like exactly the sort of thing Morgan would eat.
-Edit: Wait, PB&H is another callback? What did I miss? What does it refer to?

well if the H is for Ham it may very well be a call back to "Serious Cravings" In which Jaems is a Hampire and Morgan is keeping him alive on bacon.

Good to see Morgan in a video!

Something felt off about this one, though. I think maybe being constrained to using the same phrase made the pacing seem off? I'm really not sure...

Also, Card Kingdom!

Could be PB and Hollandaise sauce, calling back to CommodoreHustle.

Morgan and the warriors of darkness? Did I accidentally jump back in time 3 years?

Not that I'm complaining - more of both is most welcome.

According to Morgan, who added that line, is peanut butter and honey.

I guess guess it's appropriate considering who was in this sketch but the writing and delivery of this one felt a lot like a "year before the Escapist deal" style of thing (well to me anyway I might just be talking out my ass as usual). Was this coincidental or intentional?

That was fantastic. Always good to see some LRR alumni make an appearance!

It's a shame that Paul's lack of beard prevents more appearances by the WoD.

I find it kind of weird. But not quite in an Iron Stomach way. :?

By the way, sometimes I really notice how the LRR crew can emote. Morgan didn't get to do a lot of it this time around, which is a shame, considering his track record of being a Large Ham ("MAN COOKING! HAAAAAAA!" "USE SPACE JUMP!" and "WOOAAAH, YOU JUST GOT FRIIIIIIIDGED!" among others), but wow, Graham almost had me convinced that he was Giving It, so to speak. I knew in the context of the video that it was most likely an act to get Tristan to move out, but the way it was played almost made it seem like he DID genuinely care, and the thesis was thus proven. I guess I'm trying to say "Kudos" in my very long-winded way.


WAYF's hilarious typo of the day: "Almoist" for "almost"
Oh no, I left my post out in the rain, and now it's almoist.

Paul played his part, and James stood in for Jer.
Morgan would have done it, but we forgot the Warriors gear and that shot was actually done another day, so he wasn't there.

Thank You Morgan. I now know exactly how to defend all my essays and thesis' from know on. Thank you good sir.

Also, you closed the door on the Warriors of Darkness? That doesn't seem concurrent to long term survival
Do you guys mind. I'm trying to write an essay

Its probably not a good thing I feel the need to put a disclaimer after everything I say

This is a thing my and my friend run.
