So first off - I am not a fan of ragging on Hippojuice like that. Sure, they may have had a rogue fan cheating the votes, but many of their films were certainly not unworthy of winning! It's just the margins pissed people off.

This was on the fence for me as a HW or a LW, but I lol'ed, and as always the quality of your films is impeccable ... and I just didn't have the heart to LW this entry all about how you're bummed that you haven't won, etc ... haha.

Our voting has been MUCH improved so don't lose heart - you are honestly one of my fav filmmakers and it's rad to see you around. I wasn't even mad you called me at 3 am last night, haha1 (lucky for you I was just getting to bed, so I wasn't awoken).

But yeah, I dig this. Can't wait to see Cap'n America.

Haha oh man, I definitely didn't mean to offend anyone at Hippojuice, you guys definitely make some very funny films, I just thought it was amusing that Hippojuice always had hundreds and hundreds more votes than anyone else Definitely didn't mean to rag on you guys though.

Film fights is awesome, and I always love making movies for it, all hail Sir Johnson!

I voted for this one, not because I enjoyed it more than Mike's or Justin's, but because it was short and sweet, and really felt like classic Film Fights, a little wacky and a bit of everything.

OK...wasn't sure if I loved where this idea was going, but it started to get good during your "I could make a movie about..." things. Then it got crazy and weird and I fell in love. Great job. Way better than our video. Props.

Haha! Really well done, though the V.O. parts could have been cut down just a bit in the second half. Haha in the history of filmfights.com that is so TRUE! Every once in a while there\'s a group that\'ll spam the polls. Haha! Great effects quality also, really freaking good.

I believe your the only FFer this week that I\'ve never heard of before. This movie looks really good. I\'m sre someone else has said it, but the VO is a bit weak. The costumes look amazing. Loved the end. Immachargginnn my lassserrrss

Nice job on the FX in the cutaways (Captain America, Iron Man, etc). As a veteran filmfighter from the early days with no wins to my credit....this video really hit me in a deep place.

Just give me a moment.

Good job in coming up with the cutaways after looking at the masks. Could have benefited from better VO quality...and as you know, comedy that has poop and farts somehow manages to win everything every time!

Quick cuts and quick camera movement, it makes me also feel frantic in your decision making. I like it a lot, anything with super-hero references gets an A+++. I like the hippo poop, fart jokes always win over talent.

Hysterical once again, I\'m a HUGE fan of the Willamette \"Filmakes\" Society from the road trip fight and this one continues the awesome-ness. It was very short and VERY sweet, loved the hell out of it.

Really funny and well done cuttaways, funny little idea. The cuttaways give the video that little something to make it a HW. It\'s a very basic idea, all filmed in your house probably. But the amount of time you must\'ve put on the cuttaways make it special.

Great job, very funny, I\'m a big fan.

This one got my vote because it tells a concise story, and it felt like classic Film Fights - playful and eclectic. I love the POV shot near the beginning, and the cutaways to other films. I think the shots at the end are less interesting, though. I'd love to see the "Fart/Poop" graphic on the computer screen instead (not even with an effect, but just play it on the computer and point the camera), and the final shot feels unbalanced. I think it would look better with more look room, but also as more of a close-up.
