The Most Mismatched Roommates Ever

Well, I really liked it up the point where the first backwards dude got backwards shot, and I liked it the most where it turned out that he had been dead, and being shot brought him back to life and returned him to normal. However, the video totally lost me when the first guy suddenly started talking and acting backwards. I got bored and skipped to the end after that. Pretty good overall.

I'm tempted to reject this as "comedy", and call it borderline "art". It's slightly twisted, and *totally* unique. Loved it.

There is a legit site (syphtr.com) that tells directors/reps about "unknown" actors - decent move for us who are still struggling, just FYI.

You really should warn people not to watch this stoned. I spent about an hour of my life trying to work this out with my m8s last night... it broke my mind.

My original comment about how this seems a lot like a video called Dan & naD - a palindromic sketch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwWI1aHpzy0 seems to have been erased. Why did that happen?

07/09/2009 11:45:00 PM

That's actually really quite clever. I mean, the backwards thing has been done before, but with the sketch basically being the same thing twice, I'm actually quite impressed.

I think I may have, at some point, posted a comment below saying this wasn't funny. I am here now to say that I don't care about that now. I keep thinking about this sketch; it's so very ingenious and brilliant. I am sorry if I dissed it last time I watched it; I have come around now.

i compleltly agree with pappi. dont watch that high. man. that videos hilarious up until the half way point then its tragic. it says alot about fate. something i really hate to think about.

Awesome. It's like Braid meets The Odd Couple.

07/05/2009 10:46:00 PM

SuperStingray

Interesting idea but I don't see how its that funny. Also I kind of expected him to die at the bottom of the stairs while the other guy is revived (thus starting the whole thing over again.) It might have made the whole thing a little more interesting if nothing else. I liked it from an artistic standpoint but it really wasn't that funny.

This video has tattooed a permanent "the fuuuuuuuck?" on my brain. Everything is relative to the perspective of the individual. I've never seen Red Dwarf or Top Secret, so this was definitely an epic-mindfuck for me. I was expecting a lame parody of every Mismatched-Roommate Sitcom ever, but this was so much better. Not exactly laugh-out-loud funny (unless people talking backwards is hilarious to you) after the first 2 minutes. "Are you inserting shit into your butt right now?" was definitely the best line. All in all, light on the comedy, but still amazing and worth a watch...or two. I am all for more videos like this.

Right after he comes back alive, he says, "So... this is life." I can't make out what he says after that. I've listened to it forward and backward, but it sounds like gibberish both ways.

That's . . . so they're . . . Wait. OK, so are they, like, see-sawing back in time between the moment of the one guy leaving/arriving and the moment he drops over from getting shot? That's . . . bizarre and awesome. That's like something out of Twilight Zone. Or more like Amazing Stories, but you get the point. That reminds me sort of of the Amazing Stories episode with the creatures that lived in the guy's well and traded things for gold, but I'm not sure why. I used to watch that show after ALF. ALF rocked! Wait. What was I saying? Oh, right! The video! That was seriously funny. Sorta like The Odd Couple trapped in a wormhole or something.

I gotta a question though. Are these guys stuck in a constant loop 'til the end of time, or do they only switch when one of them gets frustrated enough to kill the other with a conveniently placed handgun.
