The entire film is a pure delight, especially the animation, which was perfect. The first time I watched it, I actually couldn't find out who was playing Garry, so creds to your acting skills as well.

Also, thanks for letting me help out with feedback.

To be entirely honest, I didn't find it as funny as everyone else says they did, but I guess that's just me. What I did love about your film though, was the smooth animation and the interesting 'techniques'. For example, the way you animated the fire extinguisher was really interesting to watch. These little ideas are what I like about your films.
The set-design was great and the acting was pretty decent, too. Garry was truly annoying.

So yeah, I enjoyed your film but mainly because of the creative solutions.

hilarious and extremely well made . animation had a lot of character and was really creative

my computer crashed halfway through watching it

only criticism: pony references are lame

amazing work

I loved it! The animation was great! No light flicker this time! Great job Squid.

Thanks, everyone!

I did do better than that.  Did you watch the actual ending?  The whole point of that "ending" is to set up the joke for the real ending.

It's much more important to watch the entire film with this one.

Being Irish is great.

Almost none, though I've lessened it greatly, it's still there in just a few shots, like in Henry's really long line.  Why it's there, I know not, but it's still better, and for that I am happy.

The pony reference in the chapter title seemed fitting to me.  Although references are a poor substitute for actual jokes, the chapter titles aren't meant to be jokes anyway, just something to have there and make it seem more like a storybook.  Thus I feel like it wasn't really wrong to put it there.  20 Percent cooler is also an especially fitting title for chapter 2 considering that it not only has rainbows but also has a man getting frozen in a block of ice (and that was not done as a reference, but just happened to happen).  Chapter 2 just has a lot of rainbows because I really wanted to animate rainbows in a film.  I love rainbows and think they're really pretty.

The ice sound is made from the ringing sound of hitting a metal bowl and playing it reverse and forward at the same time.  The mushroom sound was made by spending several minutes at 4 AM blowing bubbles into that same bowl during BRAWL then reversing it and adding some other effects.

The joke of it is supposed to be that Leprechauns of different nationalities are very weird and often have very strange traits to themselves which are not at all shared by their fellow non-leprechaun countrymen.
German leprechauns don't have German accents, and generally act very oddly, but do, in fact, dress in proper leprechaun attire.
Irish leprechauns are generally like normal people and don't seem especially special, though they do actually speak in their correct accent.  However, Irish leprechauns hold an almost American obsession with guns, and also have the habit of acting quite polite then shooting people on a whim.
French leprechauns speak in American accents, but are entirely oblivious to the fact that they are leprechauns.  This sort of thing happens to every single French leprechaun who ever lives who manages to find out.  French leprechauns also have a great deal of trouble controlling their magic because they are incognizant of the fact that they are in fact magical.  However, they are always lucky enough to survive their magical accidents because they are leprechauns.

It's amazing that most people seem to be getting this humour in the first place.

Great brickfilm.  Spot on animation and I loved all the bright colors.

Of course, French Leprechauns are nothing like actual Frenchmen.
French Leprechauns don't even exist, not even in other stories, so I just made them really weird to fit with the story.

Really like the style of your films. The bright colours and wonderful animation seem to give them a really good niche. Speaking of the animation, it's absolutely gorgeous, the smoothness and momentum on each movement is perfect and I loved the really creative stuff like the fire extinguisher.
  Pretty funny too, I actually really liked Gary's overacting, the only problem I have with it is that it was just a couple of jokes leading up to one twist at the end, there wasn't really an arc to speak of. I'd like to see you make something again that has more of a large, overarching story with your random humour spliced in.

Still though, very very polished film, sets and animation are lovely and you got really creative with some stuff.

Wow, you did a really great job with this, Squid. I think this has to be the best animation you've done yet. All of the movements were a wonder to the eyes, and just very satisfying to watch. The story is funny and clever, and I really liked Gary.

It's kind of weird to hear my voice acting from, what, 2 years ago again. I feel like I sound better as a voice actor now, so it just felt strange. Also, I laughed quite a bit when Smeagol took over my narration job. It was quite clever.

All in all, I love this film.
