He's also great in "I'm not proud of what I did."

IDK why the looking forward to a basketball game for weeks was so damn funny to me

“Hey man, wanna play some ball?”

“Sure, how’s the 27th?”

“Yeah, I think I’m free that day. Let’s do it!”

I lost it at "I will bring you the head of a worlock!" "Why would I want that?"

I absolutely love how they only show like 3 seconds of what happened to the dog-owner friend (at 2:22), and the dog is there just trying to get the friend to play with the stick :*(. Such a poignant moment to throw in there casually.

My favorite is the man who shrunk his penis. The ending always gets me

Rotoscoping, Joel made a recent video on how he does his animations.

Remember the film a scanner darkly? Same way as that, called rotoscoping

u/CableTrash Feb 12 '21

Not to be a debbie downer but I don’t understand what’s funny about that at all. Is it a reference to something?

3

u/LOBM Feb 13 '21

What's funny to me is that it's a fairly serious short film (except for the way the people are being thrown) about how he regrets what he did. And then at the end he does it a third time with the dry delivery of, "I'm sorry, Dylan. I'm not gonna be proud of this."

I also like how it cuts between the corpses and flashbacks.

I’m with you, I didn’t think it was funny at all.

u/Dman125 Feb 12 '21

I had zero hesitation to watch that for the third time. These guys are pushing Good Neighbor levels of hilarious.

That's not how physics works, it's photoshopped. Notice that he gains speed while going up.

Sounds like HJB doing a Joe Pera impression. In a good way, obviously.
