Do you mean mine?

They all work fine for me.

Me neither. Just a blank screen after loading. What gives?

Oh, no! I'll be so sad if you can't see it.

Maybe try hitting the stop and reload button a few times? I was wide awake with insomnia last night, cracking myself up making this.

The Football and Classic TV ones don't work either for me... only the original Bombay TV. They load and then nothing.... a shame. I checked and apparently I have Flash 9 (or whatever it's called) installed - so I don't see what the problem is??

Help!!

Crap, I'll have to remake my movie again, its messed up!

I'm disappointed because I wanted to see your films.

The end of Grim and Sarah - the remake:

Nope. Still doesn't work for me.

Why does it work for you guys but not me and Yi-Long? Strange.

The first version of my film is probably funnier because I didnt edit it properly!

Kurgan · Post by **Kurgan** » 11 Jul 2006, 16:40

First, credit where it's due. That 68Monkey has managed to write and edit such a sprawling opus is an amazing thing. I was rocking back in my chair at times I was laughing so hard

The sheer level of intrigue, the uncanny casting, and surprise cameos abound... kudos m'lady, kudos

How long did it take you to do that?! I don't think it was insomnia, more a fevered dream-state

And on a slightly different note, you were surprisingly close with your subtitling to what was actually being said in some cases

Secondly, Grim, did the studio take control away from you and release an unwatchable version first time round, and you had to fight, Ridley Scott-style, to get your cut out later? Cos, frankly, I had no clue what was going on first time round

Your second attempt was a lot more cogent. Although you have the same level of desperation at the end of each

Thirdly, yes Mark, I meant yours. I couldn't get all of what was being said, as the text was cut off. Although, as I said, the second one is easy enough to guess. You really do think a lot of yourself, don't you?

Now that there is new footage available, and that the ante has been upped considerably, do I dare return to the director's chair? And if I do, will it be Brett 'Let's knock something out every so often' Ratner style, or Stanley 'I'm gonna take my Goddamn time with this, and if you don't like it, you can get the fuck out' Kubrick style? Only time will tell...

the68monkey · Post by **the68monkey** » 11 Jul 2006, 17:03

oooooooo, I can't wait!

Oh, and as for how long it took? I don't know. I was awake at midnight and started somewhere soon after. Maybe two hours?

Pathetic, isn't it.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 11 Jul 2006, 17:03

LOL, you're probably right about the 1st edit of my movie Kurgan

I couldn't get the hang of the editing

68M's epic is fantastic

Well, you're just gonna have to, aren't you?

I think I'm gonna have to scripting soon, and then polish it. Then maybe get back to the script after that

Not really, especially if you weren't going to get to sleep anytime soon. At least you did something constructive with your time

I might have problems of my own, as I've not used this new version of it, so before I say anything else, I'll see how I get on first

I just hope I haven't made any enemies here on BnB.

But seriously, I think I was in some sort of sleep-deprived delirium while making that. All I have to do is think about some of those scenes and I start cracking up all over again.

That scene where bradavon pulls you and Yi-Long over on his moped had me questioning my own sanity, I was laughing so hard! I also crack up every time I watch the one where Tom gets a phone call from Bisc.

It was probably more fun to make than to watch.

edit: Oh! And in Knetan's defense, I really didn't want to use that particular actor to play Knetan's part, but Rutger Hauer wasn't available.

Still, when that guy held up his three fingers, I KNEW it had to be Knetan, the KING of Cat III films.

68m thank you so much. That was a masterpiece and I love the cameo you put me in. I could not have asked for a better role lmao.

Although I must clarify that I've got nothing against Mark and think that he's a top bloke. 8)

Ach, I wanna see it!

It's not cut off. I checked again after your original post and the subs are fine. Maybe you blinked, but that's what I typed.

You really do think a lot of yourself, don't you?

Someone has to...

Now that there is new footage available, and that the ante has been upped considerably, do I dare return to the director's chair?

Well, as I can't see any of them - Grim, no point sending your links to me alas - I'm not gonna torture myself by reading this thread and getting teased about what I'm missing.

hey,

and all along I thought youse guys thought I had some heart....as well.

Nice one, bobbi.

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 11 Jul 2006, 19:50

Back again... just thinking am I missing some component that allows me to play or create these clips? Most of you seem able so it must be something wrong at my end. You guys using Flash Player 9? Any idea what the problem could be?

Kurgan · Post by **Kurgan** » 11 Jul 2006, 19:53

It's got to be Shockwave and/or Flash. I can't see it being anything else. It's not an ActiveX control or anything, cos, well, I can view it on a Mac.

However, I still have those subtitle problems with your movies Mark (and yours alone), so I gave up on those. I'm sure they were funny

Hmm... I wish I knew how to fix it. I hate missing out on something fun. I have Flash 9. What's Shockwave? What version of this do you have?

Ach, well. At least you saw the first one and got the idea of the other two.

Kurgan you tried the football movie maker?
