Man my brain must not be working today because I really didn\'t get this one either. He dies three minutes later? I mean we all know that cell phones cause cancer but I\'m not too sure about this.

You did do a good job with the black and white filter and your shots were well lit.

Effing awesome. I loved the storytelling. Good creative tripodding, resulted in some interesting shots, some maybe a little too interesting but most were great. Only a small amount could have been edited down to make it quicker, maybe the initial \'on the cell phone\' shot as well as the intial \'im looking at filmfights woohoo!\' annnd maybe the last onthephone shot. But I loved the blur-date-cutoff shot. Hahaha awesomely simplistic way to end, good choice of doing it all instrumental. Cut it down a little, turn the damn thing in on time and this would\'ve gotten my HW vote dude

GARRR...jared, you should have posted this before it was too late. i really really dug this. i think it was about perfect. the shots were great. the joke was clear and funny. i just critisized people for giving pussy reviews, but i really dont know what i could say bad about this. if i HAD to say something negative, maybe the milk could have looked more curddled? idk. great job, im so glad to see it on the main page.

This looked very student filmish. Which is good because it had that obviously low budget, but good art direction to it. The shots were composed nicely. I like the contrasting handheld shots with the static shots. The kitechen scene was really good. I really like the rack focus shot on the milk date... but I don\'t know why.
Black and white helps get away with bad lighting-- I think your camera work has really improved. Now, start working on your sound (in other movies obviously) and lighting and your films will have instant moxie.

Overall the best looking lightweight, but the ending... was just bad.

Oh, tragic. Did he really die? :\'( HE IS TOO SEXY TO DIE. That music fit really well, what is it? And how\'d you film your monitor without those black lines going down it? Teehee you walk silly. Is that eyeliner I see? Nice feel to it. Maybe a shot of the calender would be nice so we know it\'s past its expiration date. WHY DIDN\'T WE SEE YOU DIE. This review is lame but a promise is a promise. Let\'s make love and never stop.

Ah so dramatic! This was birlliant. But I still think you could have done somting crazier than with milk! Like idk... death juice...or is it semen? Haha never mind! This was really well done. KEEP FILMING JARED! You need to keep it up! Dont let it die! But this was really nicely done. I cant say much more though, it was cute but not grand.

I like this movie alot. it\'s shot extremely well like most of your normal videos. It looked alot like a tester someone would shoot to see how they like certain shots.. and editing techniques. I like the video. But, it seemed a little forced. It was like \"Tester Tester Tester\" Oh, might as well add this at the end. But, I had a little inside chuckle. I would like to see you make a bigger movie for the next fight, Jared. SERIOUSLY! DO IT!

well shot.. well cut... well executed.

different way of looking at it. So are you saying that if he would have NOT been on the phone he would have noticed the milk was two weeks past due?? that\'s different.. The music worked well for a silent flick.

glad to see you back, Jared. Looks like you got your own place now maybe - that\'s cool. Hope all your issues are behind you!
