I think the videos could be condensed to just some of your best falls, or more of them done better. The ones that stood out to me were the hurdle (in sequel), the ladder still frame (first video), the door that says 22 then you falling (sequel), swing had potential, as did the one in the first video where you stood up from the chair then fell back into it. Tennis one was almost there. Porta-potty one could definitely be made hilarious.

I've been typing this as I watched the video, and I think you could deliver the falls a lot better. In the sequel video at about 4:30 you had rapid falls one after the other. I think if you showed a few of the above falls, and then the rapid fire falls (because believe me after a few the actual falling part takes "too long" without a good punch at the end). Following the fall sequence with the tractor was great, and that right back to the fall sequence with the horn beep.

Glad to see the pogo return.

Anyways, I just wrote what came to my mind as I watched them, and I know from your other threads that you're open to critiques so I hope this helps some. I'm glad you've made it into a few commercials and that you continue to make your own videos, and I really think that if you polish them up make things more concise you won't (potentially) lose the interest of your viewers. Hope it helps, and I'll be looking forward to future vids.

I've been watching "Not the Nine O'Clock News" from 1982 all night... and these videos remind me of it.

thanks for the good response. I like to hear what people think, it helps for later videos. I know the "Stupid Brain Syndrome" was a little long. I dont normally do anything that long. The only reason I did was because i got such a good response after i posted the first one and a lot of people said they wished there were more falls so i thought "i'll give them A TON. I know a lot werent needed but whatever. And thanks for the reference o the not 9 o'clock news. Thats awesome i like that show. Mr bean rules!
