Inside This Video

It's Christmas eve, and what better way to celebrate than a video about addictions to a capella? In this fake ad from a college a capella group, we learn about the dangers of graduating and still wanting to sing a capella music. It's funny and worth a watch.

What we like about this Video

-It's very good quality, for the most part. There are some great shots, and it appears they put quite a bit of time in.

-The joke about hitting the pitch pipe is funny.

-I enjoyed the nurse.

-The acting from the main guys is good.

Maybe Next time.

-It was a little too long if you ask me. Some of that stuff could have been cut. Also, there was like ten seconds of darkness and just music in the end. Unnecessary.

-Some of the editing was weak. There were long, strange pauses in a couple parts.

This is a sketch from "The Imponderables," and it's a fake commercial for a made up board game called "mush-mouth."  The premise of the game is that you have to get people to guess the word you draw, but you have to say it with their fingers in your mouth.  Very funny.

What we like about this Video

-They did a nice job of giving the video an old retro look.

-The guy barfing in his teammate's hands is hilarious.

-The theme song in the background is funny too.

Maybe Next time.

-Come up with a few more scenarios that would fit the situation.

A fake commercial made for a class for a vet hospital.  A guy gets a call from a woman whose dog is dying.  He wakes up and rushes to the hospital.  He saves the dog's life.  Jokes are made along the way.  Give it a watch.

What we like about this Video

-A lot funnier than I expected when I read it was made for a class.

-The quick costume changes were great.

-Slow motion makes me laugh.

Maybe Next time.

-The quick shot of the guy's bed partner was random because he clearly wasn't in the room.

-The girl who calls the vet never comes back in the video.  Include her in the end.

-The "credits" were not funny like the rest of the film.

A fake commercial for Wrangler Jeans, I assume mocking the one with Brett Favre.  A bunch of guys play football together, in their Wrangler Jeans, and get a little too touchy feely.  This is another great sketch from the group "Playground Mafia!" at Bowdoin College.

What we like about this Video

-They did a great job bringing parody to an already stupid commercial.

-The shot of the guy lifting his friend and being face-to-crotch is hilarious.

-The ending with the "jorts" for baseball is great.

Maybe Next time.

-Be careful using licensed music.

An unmotivated student is asked where he sees himself in five years.  The video shoots forward to show him near eviction from a house he is sharing with his angry wife and child (who has some problems of his own).  The video ends by saying, "do it for the kids.  Get an education."

What we like about this Video

-Will Garrison plays every single person in his family, including his wife.  Impressive character work.

-Clever editing, especially with the power outage, caused for some great comedic moments.

-Always a good choice to end a movie on a loud burp.  No, seriously.

Maybe Next time.

-Hey, if you're gonna play every character in your family, why not play every character in the video?  Who needs the advisor in the beginning, throw on another disguise!

-I could have stood for the child character to be a little less annoying, but hey maybe that's just me.
