Madisun's Arc - Reviews By Darth Marsden

[Darth Marsden]

Oh hey, I do reviews and stuff, don't I. Totally forgot there for a minute.

Well, I guess I'd better do another one, hadn't I?

EDIT: If anyone's at all curious, this one'll be around 17-18 minutes long. So it'll be on Blip.

[Darth Marsden]

See? Full video, on Blip. Told ya.

Oh, and remember how I said it wouldn't be on YouTube? Yeah, I lied.

EDIT: Worth pointing out that I had to edit one or two things out of the YouTube version to drag it under the 15-minute mark. The credits are the most obvious thing, but I've also cropped the tram crash from Coronation Street and the scene of Ben Miller recounting a childhood experience. There was also a (in my mind at least) pretty funny post-credits scene featuring the Martine-Bot v3.1.

To see the full version, follow the Blip link, which isn't that much longer at around 16½ minutes.

[Darth Marsden]

Hey, new preview.

...that is all.

Is that character related to the wacky wavy flailing arms tube man?

(Because his arms spaz out all over the place. "WHOOO!!WHAAAOOO!!!MY ARMS DON'T WORK!" *BANG!BANG!BANG!*)

[Darth Marsden]

I think he's got more in common with a poorly made action figure.

I dunno. I still think Super Bat and Spaderman are pretty cool dudes!

(If you don't agree with me, then I guess Robert Cop will have to take you down town to meet commisioner Star Knight!)

[Darth Marsden]

Hey, review's done. To view it, click on my enormous noggin.

[Alcoremortis]

Nice review. I feel that with each one you do they just keep getting better and better.

[Darth Marsden]

Thanks. I feel the same way. Practise really does make perfect, I guess.

What do you guys think about the slightly different camera angle? Is it better?

[Darth Marsden]

No thoughts about the camera angle? Really? Oh well, not that it matters. I've gone ahead and stuck with it anyway. I like showing off how messy my desk is.

OK, how about another question. I still have the video footage I took of me playing through Drake. Do you think it's worth cobbling together and uploading as a Let's Play? Perhaps with some commentary from me?

[der_ketzer]

Post commentary is always a bit tricky.
How long is it?
I would certainly watch it all. Also: there seem to be no LPs of this game. So doing a LP might actually make sense.

[Darth Marsden]

In total, I think it's between 2-3 hours. It's not that long of a game, all told.

[Darth Marsden]

I'm gonna go ahead with the Let's Play. Once I'm done with the next couple of reviews, anyway.

And by way of a seamless link, here's a preview of a review.

[der_ketzer]

You raise your voice again. And you sound like you are speaking into a metal tube when you do. Also the difference in audio between clips & room-scenes is really bad this time (or maybe I'm just tired)

[Darth Marsden]

No, there is a difference. I don't know why, I recorded the audio in exactly the same place as the live-action stuff. Maybe it's because I'm facing a clipboard rather than the camera.

And yes, I'm angry. But that really is what this film made me.

So this movie made you angry. I hope you never see My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic because that might turn you from good to evil.

Dude, I'm a Sith Lord. I'm already evil.

Sure. And I am a #*~/ing rainbow.

Wow, I found a rainbow. Can I have your pot of gold then? 'cause I could do with teh monies.

[Darth Marsden]

Video's currently uploading to my Blip account, it should be up in about an hour. Provided my internet connection doesn't die overnight, which it may well do. I guess I'll find out in the morning.

The video's over 16 minutes long, so I'll have to do some tweaking to make it YouTube ready. I'll do that either tomorrow morning or afternoon, depending on how long it takes.

Also, I need to give thanks to SHODANFreeman, who helped me out immensely with his knowledge of the Punisher comics. There's a small, easily noticeable section I added in later that's directly attributable to his comments about the liberties the film takes with the comics, so huge thanks to him for his help with that.
