Hahaha I liked it. A little jumpy audiowise coz of the background noise in the grocery store, but the expressions on the actors were teriffic. I don\'t know if I loved the music at the end, but it worked

gawd...what was the subliminal message that flashed, i kept trying to pause it right there, but i couldnt. i might have to DL this just to see...pretty funny joke. i liked the toilet guy\'s intial big grin. that was pretty funny. the end jooke was pretty funny, too. the bathrrom shots seemed a little unnecessarily shaky. it was ok for the supermarket, but the bathroom should have been steadier. no biggie. good job!

The guy\'s smile was hilarious. The shots were not framed well at all. Try remembering to frame the actor nearer to the top rather than directly in the middle. It gives too much of that annoying negative space when framed too high. The ending-- was very good! Good music to go with it and the guy\'s deliever of the line was perfect. Overall, the funniest I have seen so far.

You guys are nerds. Just kidding. Who\'s the creative one of the group? Take control. This was probably really funny to you and your friends, but I felt alienated from it because I wasn\'t on \"the in.\" I don\'t know the shitter in real life so instead of finding his overacting humorous I found it annoying, and I\'m sure he\'s a cool guy who, if I ate lunch in the cafeteria with, I would find funny. It was a great concept.

My best advice: Make characters. The guy in the store had no story behind him. He was just some guy. The guy on the shitter was \"A guy on a shitter saying funny things for amusement.\" What are their names? Who do they love? What are their fears? This could\'ve been awesome if I saw these characters as real people, even surreal... but fleshed out. Think about it. Make magic. Buy my cereal.

This one was short and pretty funny, the music added to it. How\'d you not get harassed filming at the supermarket? It sucks running out of toilet paper. But I bet if he had better lighting in the bathroom he might have found it. :)

Thanks for the constructive criticism, folks. Seriously, this is what we need and we are taking everything that is being said to heart for future films that we make.

Rock on. :D

Superfluous Studios - Acting Review

Ok, the reactions in this movie were really not that good, it seemed like they were quick and forced. You guys had a good, simple idea. You also had a great chance to to throw in some good one liners too. The two actors really wernt that bad. The kid taking a crap looked right into the camera, im sure it was on purpose, but i don\'t think it was needed for that shot. The kid in the supermarket had a nice flow with his lines, they were good, but then again his reactions seemed like they were forced. I\'ll give ya a thumbs up!

IS there a secret message hidden in this film? Hmm??
Haha a funny add. The expressions were priceless, a bit too loud for my tastes. Very nice, I will enjoy to see more out of you guys.

This is my first time watching this video. I like the expressions. That kid is so excited! Crap jokes are always funny. okay, not really. But, I like the premise of this movie. I\'ve talked to people while on the pooper. Not really. But, i\'ve wanted to. I kind of liked it. It was cute. and well done.

i loved the cheesy grin.. and my friends SO ANSWER THE PHONE WHEN THEY ARE ON THE CRAPPER TOO... Nice punch line. Perfect use of music. Try to make your tilts a little more smoother (in the beginging).

I enjoyed this one.
