Dick Figures: O Filme

OK for those of you out there who were around when the idea was first thrown out to the viewers about the movie you'll remember the money for it came from the fans.

The understanding would be you give us money and we'll make this movie and post it to you tube. I myself am more than a little angry that they took our money to make the movie and then decided to charge us to watch it. Seriously? Who charges the viewers to watch a movie that the viewers payed to have created? That being said the movie is great. I just refuse to pay to watch it again when I helped pay for it to be made

It has taken some time till I was able to watch the movie. Nevertheless, it was absolutely awesome. It were the ridicoulus puns and the small details which made the movie for me. Basics which (luckily) were taken over from the series.

It took me a lot longer than the 73:50 min to watch the film and not only to get more b00ze, but also to constantly pause the movie.

A lot of stuff is going on in the background if you take note. Just for example the stuff (Books, Movies, Games) Blue has in his rack in the beginning of the movie: Fang Angels (Twigay), A Melody Of Myth & Magic, War Soldiers, Companion Cube, The Pretty Good Gatsby, Arry Potuh & The Banger In Yo Mouf, Duke Of Fancy, Adventures Of Bloser - just to name what I can gather in short time. A lot of references to pop culture and to fans of the series.

I had a lot more fun watching this movie than in tons of high grossing Hollywood flicks. There are so many awesome and original things in this movie that I will gladly watch it numerous times. I sincerely hope that this movie will be a good example and will bring creativity back to my movie "lunch". 'Cause Hollywood cannot satisfy my hunger with the twentieth installation of basically the same movie.

If you want some examples of the humour, take these. If you are a fan of Batman: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6Dh-yE029U If you are a fan of Call Of Duty: http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=Ly3OTtXdJEg If you are a fan of Star Trek and Arnold Schwarzenegger (i.e. Terminator, Kindergarten Cop) http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=nJZXcsVvjUI

Just goes to show, that Ed Skudder and Zack Keller have lots in store for everyone. I can't wait for more from the both and the team.

On a sidenote: Alex and Lindsay Small-Butera are credited as "Character Animators". Those two are behind "Baman and Piderman". If you enjoy Dick Figures, you might also enjoy this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyvZ04KKhFY

For those who have seen every single episode of the web series at least twice and have grown to really enjoy the series, will love this film adaptation. It has some really well animated and written scenes. The second time through watching I found myself pausing the movie and reading things in the background or on the walls; I found there were many throwbacks to old movies, video games and pop culture. The plot was a little jumpy from place to place, but this was blended in by the writing that is often found it the web series shorts. The action is great, the laughs are awesome, and the story is fun. This film adaptation is a great work and it will be interesting to see what happens to Red and Blue in the future.

Before this movie is watched it's important to remember what it is, namely a film geared at people familiar with the franchise.

By producing the film independently it contains the same humour, animation and production quality as the web series, but in a refreshingly new form. There's some notably well put-together scenes and the film as a whole was generally enjoyable to watch.

Turning a short web cartoon into a film could almost only go wrong but they have managed to pull it off.

It would be great to see where the series goes next for the pair, but let's see how this film rides out for them.

"Dick Figures: The Movie" is a hilarious epic story about two friends named Red and Blue and their quest to recover the legendary Sword of Destiny.

If you're looking for a great comedy, this is it. This movie has action, drama, and of course a hefty dose of raunchy humor. This is definitely not a kids' movie, as you might infer from the title. There is a lot of profanity, sexual references, violence, and more. Think "South Park" without the annoying voices.

I recommend this for anyone who likes movies such as "Pineapple Express", "Ted", "Dumb and Dumber", "Shaun of the Dead", or others like that. It has some stoner humor like Pineapple Express, a cute talking animal like Ted, a hilarious epic road trip like Dumb and Dumber, and tons of action and one-liners like Shaun of the Dead. Some of the humor is related to the original web-series, so you'll get more out of it if you watch some Dick Figures episodes first. They are all free on YouTube.

Bottom line: if you haven't seen it, check it out!
