    A lot of fun to watch!

    This short isn't perfect but it was made as part of Toronto's 48 hour film challenge. Basically the whole thing including all the editing and effects have to be done and in their hands in 48 hours no exceptions. I was on another team and this wasn't the best film but it was for sure the funniest. OK so there weren't many comedy entries but this was still super funny. As a Star Wars fan I really loved it. It is about a guy who tries to convince his girlfriend that they are living beside George Lucas even though it's just a nice guy who looks like George Lucas. I give it 6 out of 10 which is high marks considering that when you make something in 48 hours there will definitely be a lot of problems that otherwise wouldn't be there. Our film won a couple prizes and even it had some bad edits that were embarrassing to watch. Great job to the people who made this one and I hope you will shoot a full length version of it! There were a lot of great entries the last 2 years so if you're a film maker check out the competition on line!

    Funny Stuff

    I give this a six out of ten which I think is fair. I thought it was funny and laughed a few times but the movie had some problems. As for what the other reviewer said about it being in a film making race and they had only one day that makes it understandable and it is good considering but I don't really factor that in because I judge what I'm seeing not what the crew had to go through to make it. The performances are good with the two neighbours (a man who thinks his neighbour is George Lucas working on a weird movie and then George Lucas as the other neighbour denying who he is) doing an excellent job at getting laughs. I would have liked to see more of the wife though, she wasn't in it very much at all. The other parts could be bigger too. Elton John in his garbage was very funny but really this movie just had the two guys talking to the camera. Good laughs sometimes yes but at the same time not too much interaction and more a series of jokes than a coherent story that fit together. A good effort though by all involved this is an entertaining and funny short movie!
