Daily Drop: Pizza

[Daniel_Rosamilia]

I'd like to say congratulations to Paul and Graham on creating such an insane, yet strangely captivating Internet series (or, I HOPE it becomes a series).

But seriously, WHY DID YOU DESTROY PART OF MY HERITAGE?!
Pizza is my LIFE!

 

[rpg1203]

...Stimulating...

Well that was a waste. This is a perfect way to honor the starving children and homeless people. Throw food away for or amusement.[sarcasm] So I'm just gonna say fuck you. This show sucks.

You are aware of the charity work that the LRR crew (who made this video) actually do?

Desert Bus for Hope?

This helps collect money for the charity Child's Play that buys toys and games for children's hospitals.

I think your comment was extremely unfair and in extremely poor taste.

No I didn't know that. And why would I know such a random information? If that's really the case then I apologize. But I still don't think that I'll watch this. I don't find it entertaining.

You don't have to find it entertaining, you don't have to like it at all.

That said, you can't expect to say things like that about people you've never met and go unchallenged. "Fuck you" is not a valid contribution, or reasoned criticism, it's a repulsive thing to say over a harmless video. If you feel so strongly about world hunger, then I suggest you stop posting stuff like that and use that energy to do something about it.

I'm a fan of these guys, and I'm not the only here. That information isn't random to people on the site either as they've had a partnership with the Escapist for some time now.
Also, Graham and Matt regularly read the comments so perhaps you'll take that into consideration next time you feel the need to post.

My life is complete.

 

[DTWolfwood]

drop it from a higher altitude!

 

[RTR]

I'm hungry

 

[gameoni]

when r u going to do Babies..... u always hear them say "don't drop the baby" ^_^

 

[mjc0961]

But... I could have cooked and eaten it... Why? Why guys?

That was really cool though. At first I was wondering why it wasn't cooked, but once cheese launched everywhere, I understood.

Although I'm starting to wonder if Graham and Paul are robots that don't need sleep at this point. So many videos, so many videos...

 

[duchaked]

Still not getting it...

I guess it's because I'm one of those people who watchs Mythbusters for reasons other than the fact that shit blows up.

You've made it pretty clear you don't enjoy this. So don't watch it. That simple, really. We have plenty of other content for you to enjoy.

like the upcoming film festival!

great, now I'm hungry...traded all my food money for props ='(

 

[Havzad]

never have i been more entertained in a minute
i found myself going- "OOOH,its gonna drop any second!!"
its awesome that i can ask "o what are they gonna drop today?"
this is amazing plz never stop

 

[Markness]

I think you guys are really wasting your time. This isn't entertainment.

 

[Mashakosha]

Nice crumple and a decent bit of splash, but not a whole lot of damage. I'd probably grate some more cheese, replace the pepperoni and still cook it.
Crumple: 7
Splash: 5
Damage: 2
Total : 14

 

[Mcupobob]

I didn't even no you guys got another show... Does the LRR team ever sleep?

 

[mayney93]

That was cool. Now I'm hungry...

my sentiments prexactry

 

[Last Bullet]

First thoughts: "Oh, this is gonna be dumb. Pizza, really?"
Actual reaction: Rapt attention, stares wide-eyed the whole clip.

Seriously, it almost worries me how my brain interprets slow-mo sometimes. Almost. Somehow looking forward to Monday now.

 

[Funkysandwich]

Man, that pizza looked nasty. Did you guys get the cheapest pizza you could find? If I got a pizza like that, I'd probably drop it from a ladder as well.

Hope you don't mind me making a few suggestions, I just don't see this living up to it's potential at the moment. This is just friendly feedback!

Firstly I think having an ad play at the beginning that's potentially longer than the actual video is a bit much. And the intro seems a bit fluffed out.

I think instead you should go for more of a "flicking through" appeal. There's not much content in each video so it's better to make it easier to quickly watch one of the items drop, then flick to the next.
Fluffing it out more would just leave some people thinking "was it worth the wait", and with some items it'll end up a little anti-climatic.

Secondly the music is a little too energetic considering we're watching something in slow motion! I actually think it'd be a lot better if the music faded out after the smashing "daily drop" logo, and then we could have audio of the item being smashed.

If there's a problem with capturing audio in slow motion maybe just quiet it down a little bit or something, it'd be worth playing about with other possibilities a little! :3

Man Escapist, is there anything these guys pitch that you won't just green light?
