Scott was fighting tooth and nail to get it the big room. He wanted this year to be the year of the fans, so he's been doing his damndest to make sure they/we are given the red carpet treatment. The problem last year was of course he brought in classics that had footage adjusted, but not audio adjusted, so the old-school muffled audio was absolutely terrible in conjunction with the room.moonbunnychan wrote:Woo...I just got back from spending several days at Busch Gardens.
Which, just as a reminder for the future I'm totally capable of hosting stuff should you ever run into megaupload or rapidshare's limits. It slows a bit if a bunch of people are downloading at the same time like with the reaction videos but I don't have any file size limits or bandwidth limits.
And nice that we're more or less leading off the parodies again. Crowd's always bigger at the beginning. Looking at that line up some of those may actually be well worth watching. Whatever came after Salad last year was kind of a room cleaner.
Does Scott know yet if it's going to be in that same room? It seriously had the worst acoustics ever.
He also is an older anime fan, so his perception on anime humor is more nostalgic than ours. Evangelion Redeath works because it doesn't matter if you've seen it, or even older anime. It is a self-contained story. As is his This is Otakudom one. You'd figure he'd know what would clear a room. Of you stuck around for the Gundam one last year, you'd be sad that so few people saw it. It was quite well done. But nothing can explain why he let that piece of shit where the dude just sat in front of a camera tiredly droning on, culminating in a shitty dead guy's horrible rap, made its way through the pre-screening process. That was terrible in just about every way.
This year, I'm going to be trying to make my own fan dub, or at least get started. Until I determine the plot, though, that's a moot point. When I go this year, I'm taking a large hard drive with me since he promised he would give me all of the parodies he has so I can study them. I want to see what works, doesn't, etc. I also love his advice: "Watch the bad ones... all the way through." And I mentioned it before, but if any of you would like to be a part of it, I'd more than welcome the help. I do have to warn you though, I will be as strict as I am here on quality ^^ On myself as well. If I suck, I won't be a voice actor for it. Simple as that.
My friend lost it in a fit of nostalgia and realizing how perfect The King is as the character to have those lines.
