      “DO EET!” is my new favorite phrase of the day. It would make a great T-Shirt.

    The Scandinavians are really kicking ass in this thing.

      Finland isn’t part of Scandinavia.

      But the Nordic are doing pretty okay, yeah.

        Yes, Finland IS part of Scandinavia. I should know, I live here :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandinavia

        • Anonymous

          Or at least that’s what we’ve always been teached at school. According to that article Finland is only _sometimes_ considerd a scandinavian country in some instances. I dunno. I’ll get me coat ->

          • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_EAIHLUU3JSTIB3D2OWHGYN5PHA Ingen

            Your teachers have been misinforming you. Scandinavia consists of Denmark, Sweden and Norway, and always have. Finland IS a part of Finno-Scandinavia, but when you need to awkwardly insert your county’s name at the beginning of the collective term to make the cut, you should realize something’s up.

            You could just become Swedish property again. That’d make you Scandinavians. Though, as a Norwegian, I’d say; ask the Danish instead. They’re nicer.

    Good choice spoony, sort of. I thought it was funny.

    *But* the production values for this one are MUCH lower than the previous one. I can see why you expect to get flamed for this. So yeah… I kind of slightly disagree with your choice.

    I’m eager to see the victor in this battle of grass.

    I must say, I’m with you :) That was awesome, the music was great and the acting was so earnest.

    I liked the last one too, but so far this is my fav.

    Loved the facial expressions. Someone really ought to do a buddy fantasy film. The Simon Pegg/Edgar Wright/Nick Frost team would be perfect.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1186272136 Brendan Morland

    I really like this one. The fight scene was well done, and I especially like the fact they added closed captions for the dialogue. My girlfriend is deaf, so I was finally able to show her a video from this site that she could understand (take note, Spoony: Give us CC!).

    • http://celluloidandsilicon.blogspot.com/ Avenging_Mike

      I agree, it’d be nice to have CC that you could turn off and on as needed, but I don’t believe Blip has that functionality, so it’d have to be hard-coded CC, and that would just make Spoony’s job a hell of a lot tougher, since then he’d need to take in to account placement of the CC, and wouldn’t be able to place anything important in the video in that area. So unless Blip upgrades their player, I don’t see it happening.

  • Kurimus

    Great clip.

    A Rogue and a Cleric in an open field? Wow. Not the best strategy (or party choice for that matter). =)

    I really liked the blooper reel for this one. It’s nice not to take yourself too seriously. That, and the Cleric gets points for doing the whole thing bare foot (the biting insects and bladed weeds alone must have been painful).

    This should so be a line in a metal song if it isn’t already.

      That was probably my favourite line. I’m a bit surprised it got so little attention while DO EET seems to be the line most people liked.

    Great to see our vid won this thing. To be quite honest we always did have high hopes for it but we didn’t expect what was more or less a two weekend project to actually turn out to be winner material. Or, well, at least I didn’t.

      We just might make something like a full-length sequel, if we find the time for it. And if we figure out how to do more than a 4 minute skit without a cameraman.
