I'm bringing em back baby.

No, but seriously, thank you. This made it all worth while.

I think the Incompetech music kinda killed it. But, kudos to you for making a 12-minute long brickfilm. I wish I had enough patience to do so.

Like you said, the technical bits need work. But, the jokes never seem to go wrong. I'm serious. You should have seen my reaction to some of the great lines in there; this film is really well written. But, I can never stress the need for improvement on the technical aspects of this film.

Kudos once again for being able to pull together a 12-minute long film! And keep up the great work!

Please don't, you taught me a new word. Now I can use it a lot and people will think I am smart. Yours was the second most useful holiday brickiflm ever made. Thank you.

Yes. Yes it did. I honestly have to turn to him because I know nobody else. I recently became super-weird about copyrighted stuff, so I won't use that. To be honest, I searched Incompetech for hours trying to find good music. 

I completely agree. My small light flicker problem has spiraled into a big one, this video had an unusual amount of camera bumps, and in the parts I shot at the last minute look really cheap. I hope to improve a lot more in my THAC entry.

I have been waiting for somebody to call me out on this since the Deadly Mission. I Have this problem a lot for some reason. I edit each shot directly after I shooting it so I don't forget which "mistake" frame to delete. I sometimes shoot shots out of order and separate each shot by a 5 second black screen. When I string it all together and delete the black screens, I guess some of the audio goes with it. I am going to have re-think my strategy.

Thank you all very much for taking the time to write your critiques and complements.

HOLY FREAKIN WOW!!!!!! Dude, that was amazing!!! Like seriously one of my favorite brick films of all time. I was laughing my head off for awhile, as I was expecting. Dude, this is a masterpiece, and you should be very proud of it! Honestly, my only critique would be the sound cut offs that happened occasionally, but for me, it didn't take away from the fun at all! Great job! Can't wait for your next film!

GOOD GUMDROP!  THAT WAS WONDERFUL!

So many good jokes.  I loved the gingerbreadman's randomly dramatic scene.  It's really fantastic.  Keep doing what you are doing.

I thought this film was good and funny, my only problem is that your films always have some weird part that is supposed to be funny but instead is depressing to me. I would have enjoyed the movie a lot more if the stuff with the gingerbread man was less dramatic.

I can definitely see where you are coming from, everyone has a different taste in humor.

I think my humor leans a bit to the darker side because of all the horrifically dark yet funny "Monty Python" movies/skits my mom showed me when I was younger. The first brick films I ever watched were by the "Tomjoetwins". Their stuff was basically just random destruction for the sake of destruction. Things like this probably had a role to play in my sense of humor.

Of course, I don't want to go way overboard. I feel it is best in small doses and moderation, because eventually it just becomes coarse and disgusting. I also try and make it ridiculous as possible to avoid any similarities to real events or touchy subjects, I don't want to cross the line between "Dark" and "Offensive". 

So really, it just boils down to what kind of humor you like. I favor somewhat morbid stuff, so my project will usually have it.

Thanks for the feedback.

No, thank you.

Bleh. Can I swap out my prize for cash?

This is so flattering. I am pretty much lost for words.
