Decent shooting - great camera. I like the music. Think the ending is a great twist as well. Story is pretty basic, and it feels like it's got some filler even at only 30 seconds, but all in all enjoyable and made better with the twist.

I loved this. I was watching this, and it was definitely an "Oh, no... you've got to be kidding me" moment. I was racing through my mind all the things this could possibly be, and I have to say, the blowing of a nose didn't come up.
I really liked the choice of shots you used, however, that being said, my only real criticism is that a few of the shots were a little bit shaky and I found it distracting. Try stabilizing them a little more?
Otherwise, I absolutely loved it. It emotionally disturbed me. In a good way.

And I just watched it again -- i loved the vary shots ( the slow crooked pans) the rack focus in - besides being funny this shows some maturity (evolution if you will) in your "career here at filmfights." :)

Pretty good delivery. You went for an entirely different kind of intense here then the other heavyweights!

This was beautifully shot, and I love the black and white. Even though the song fit very well, you shouldn't use copy written music! If someone was going to feature this on an ad revenue based internet show, they wouldn't be able to because you don't own the music. Funny premise, I laughed at the way the actor pulled the toilet paper off the roll. But the ending was a little subtle considering the build up. You could have gone even more over the top. But, in the top 3 this week.

Hm, I'm not smart enough to get this as well as the others. Strange.

As soon as I heard Flight Of The Conchords I knew it was going to be good. Hilarious.

I'm sad this was late -- it's very clever.

You guys are great at the slow paced subtle comedy which I think is great, but don't know that it grabs the votes of the Filmfights audience as well as something like the Recyculator will. SometimesFunny has the same problem.

A lot of people liked the music choice, but I thought it was a bit obvious, and also kinda 'sneaky' as it's a comedy song. Sexy bass might have been better. I'm all about your guys films, keep it up amigo!

I liked the "twist" at the end. The use of music, slow focus, and choice of black and white suited this well. I'm not sure, though, if it was quite as "Over the Top" as some of the other videos.

I agree that the biggest problem with this is the music. It was literally the first thing we added at random. The good news is that it's easy to replace with something different.
I'm not so sure about copyright issues because if someone wanted to use it, they would contact the submitter for permission to use it and for them take off the music and replace it with something not copyrighted.
I do <3 flight of the concords though, and this song was just too good to pass up.

It isn't as "over the top" as I thought it would be, but it still has a dramatic feel.

Thanks for all of the awesome reviews you guys! <3

That was cool abbreviation of the FF intro. Love the Flight of the Concords! Great depth of field. Must be a good camera, lens. Not sure I love the B&W. Ha, nice take3 on "Business time". Fit the fight, well. Was not as "over the top" as some entries, bu Ti really liked it.

I think going with black and white helps make this entry stand out a bit more, and I just thought I'd mention I've been to the real St Ives. Twice. teehee
