Eh...Comedy was kinda up there but didn't get me to chuckle. Kinda lost me at the fight scene seemed to be almost all over the place. But I'm willing to see where this is headed. Looking back I was kinda weirded out and up in the air about Doomsday Arcade's Pilot but it turned out to be quite the series. I'll hold my breath for now.

Awsome, I think this may be the thing that fills that humongous Doomsday Arcade shaped hole during our week.

Awsome pretty much the whole way through and the fight scene was done well which is a thing that a lot of shows lack. Looking forward to more.

Anyone else think that there was going to be a bonus after the credits, because there were about 20 extra seconds? I did, and I was disappointed. Still, good first video, look forward to more.
I kind of did, but I'm glad that there wasn't. I don't really like those extra bits being at the end of the credits.... means I have to watch the credits.

This right here is another example of why this is my favorite website on the entire Internet.

Looking forward to more.

Srsly? Another video series on the Escapist? This feels like a waste of time. I'm not even that interested in the subject matter.

..............Huh?! O__o


(was well done, though a few things that didn't make too much sense, ie clapping a mans ears when he is wearing a balaclava doesn't work etc).

That was pretty awesome.

But his mom gave him the table.... from the future?

I must keep watching to find out about the table!
Oh no, a plot hole... No wait!
His mum did give him that table, or rather does, but because that stupid guy broke it, he not only no longer has the table, he never owns the table. That, is why it pissed him off. He'll never know the joys of ownership of that particular table.
Anyway, I rather enjoyed this. Good work, keep it up... Please?

Doesn't work, or is less effective? I'm genuinely curious if anyone knows, I am nowhere near an expert in hand to hand combat.
Oh, I do have to complain about... Uh... Future man checking attacker man's pulse with his thumb. You fool! If you'd done it properly you'd have known he was still alive!

So this has just turned into my favourite live series after Doomsday Arcade.

I do agree with some people that the flow of the action sequences needs tuning. Sometimes I was confused with if he was still fighting the same guy or not and the fades to black felt unnecessary since we'd return to seeing Mikey 3 feet away from his original location.

Still Mikey pretty much won me over with "My point is that I had 7 victory points" *Bang*.

seamlessly blending bad acting, trying hard to be cool, terrible fight choreography, and uncompressed audio. cant wait for the next one. btw, i love the escapist. Just think you could find better.

Firstly, I am glad you guys are on the Escapist. Secondly, and you probably don't care, but you never check a pulse with your thumb because you can feel your own heart beat and it gives you a false positive. crap... I'm that guy... I know, I'll go a away now.

Haha. I do care. I did a tv pulse check and people pointed it out after we'd finished the shoot. I'll do my best in the future to make sure our medical accuracy is on par with a bad episode of Grey's Anatomy (I have no idea what that means either!)

I liked it. I am also willing to forgive any lapses just for the look of dumbfounded bewilderment on Anthony's face during the fight scene.

Oh, I am also willing to forigve almost anything for a content creator who responds directly to feedback on the forums so bravo, keep it up!

Ha. Thanks. I mean, we're learning as we go. We know how to make quality video content, but quality content on practically zero budget, on a time schedule? Not simple :)

But, feedback is great! We have four episodes in the can, and are shooting one tomorrow (in the snow, yikes.)

It was pretty much universal feedback that the time that the fight took up was too much for not being of utmost quality. So, we are definitely working on the fight stuff with further episodes. The quality bar gets a major uptick with episode 3 and 4. So, through the rest of the season, we'll try to pick it up. There's a lot more gunplay than fist fighting in next few.

I'll watch some Jet Li movies and take some notes.

Cheers!
