Hero Worship
In a world where a super powered cosmic being exists, two nerds decide to become vigilantes, ala Batman and Robin, while their practical roommate tries to dissuade them.

It is nice! In my country, they make kinofilm of yazak the rooster and the man with green hat and small feet. Very similar!

Simply put: your best work yet.
I laughed [alot]. I cried [not really]. It became a part of me. Much better than Cats. I’ll watch it again and again. And tell my friends about it.
From the production values to nice toss off lines ["don't touch that"], a nice job all around. I think the vigilante names are too “laughing-at” instead of the larger demographic possibilities of “laughing-with”, but maybe that’s just me.
I have two thumbs. Both are up. Which sounds slightly rude.

That was excellent. The “Jackson 5-fingered fist” attack made me laugh hard enough to rip my headphones from the speaker jack (I watch at work) and I had to scramble to re-insert…much like the ol’ sex life.
Also, if those were not plastic implants, Nick…your nipples were freaking rockstars. Must have been cold as the teet of a witch when filming.
Good work guys, keep kicking ass and continue to take names. Soon enough, you’ll be nose deep in coke, forgetting about all your friends/family and having sex w/ transvestite hookers…glorious

By far your best work yet. Very funny, and probably each of your best acting performances.
My only comment would be the length. I think if you edited it down to around 6-7 min, cut some of the character setup conversations down to one key joke/moment each, it would flow a bit better; and really become a phenomenal piece. Especially the early dialogues with Nick’s char asking for the rent. I think just coming up from that intimate little nerd-fest to see Nick’s straight face would do more for the pacing at the beginning than watching the whole conversation.
Although it’s definitely not my place to crit… Excellent short.

all this greatness and still no money. haven’t i seen all of you in those tights? more sleepless nights.

Good stuff! I kind of saw the ending coming though. Also, I think the second to last shot (the guys walking in a dark alley) should have had some close-ups, instead of just one long wide shot. I love the final shot though. Looking forward to your next one!
