LoadingReadyRun: Frank Miller's SimCity

[Andy Shandy]

It really wasn't going to end any other way than Godzilla was it?

 

[alpha0924]

Reminds me of the Pizza sketch.

But yeah. I'm sad. I am tempted by Sim City 5, but Sim City 4 keeps randomly crashing. And #5 has DRM.
So yeah, EA. You sure know how to alienate potential customers.

This should help. [http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/SimCity_4]

This looks like there was a lot of post-production work went into the making of this one // Which we all appreciate =] Great ep guys // I like how Paul's character wasn't corrupt per say, but like the corrupt people ideas and once again James is on top form as "The Cop"

Also, I do not want to live in their city, sure all those brothels would be nice but hot and cold running moonshine, I'd go blind!

-M

I liked how Graham, who might have been a bartender and therefore dealer of hooch, was the least crooked of that group. I don't know what Kathleen was supposed to be, but I couldn't see it ending without Godzilla.
And a city where booze doesn't just flow like water, but in PLACE of it? I want to go to there!

Sounds like a Dick Tracy villain, or a Sin City character

I heard "stoolie" and "Sewage Plant" and I thought something completely different for about 30 seconds...

You aren't the only one. On the other hand, now I know the potential menace in the words, "human waste."

 

[War Penguin]

Corrupt or not, the LRR rule of thumb is always "James is the cop." xD

 

[attackshark]

pretty good. i wish there had been some narration at the beginning, though, and taken more time on a couple of shot and ideas. that would have really rounded out that Sin City feeling.

 

[madhousezack]

I can't believe nobody has said it already! I guess i'll do it: "It's Miller Time!"

 

[hpriamson]

That's one damn fine coat Graham was wearing.

 

[yayforgiveaway]

Best LRR so far imho. I laughed so hard. ;D

If this was really a Frank Miller Production then Kathleen would have been a whore. Because in Frank Millers head all women are whores.

I'm having 'Secret of the Sauce' flashbacks. And they're delicious.

For those in need of a reference point, allow to supply it:

She sounded like the one that takes care of all the whores - the whore that rose above the whore corporate ladder and became the whore-in-charge.

(I know there's a word for that but I can't recall what it is).

In the split second before Graham released the lizard, i seriously believed he was going to say something along the lines of "take out their servers" or something. Disappointed. I mean, who needs that 4th wall anyway, it just gets in the way.

Your thinking of a Madam of a brothel, but that's more of a secretary.

Guys, I absolutely loved this sketch!

Seriously, I think this has got to be amongst my Top 10 LRR sketches (and, seriously, I hate even picking just 10).
The effects were perfect, the tone nailed it and it was pricelessly funny to boot

'Crime? What crime? We have the lowest crime rate in the states. Right, Corrupt Police Chief?'
'I didn't see nuthin'

Loved Graham's voice over, too. Really loved the red tie effect on Paul and the white out effect used on James' glasses.

Superb work guys!

 

[tehweave]

Wow. You guys went all-out on the visuals of this one. Very nice!

 

[flaviok79]

Great episode! Gorgeous style, great commedy, amazing show!

 

[Rogjah]

Now I wanna play sim city.... thanks guys...

You could always get one of the older ones. It'd be kind of funny if after the new game released, they saw a significant spike in sales for the previous games.

After the current server issues, GOG saw a sales spike in Sim City 2000. This was also due to some brilliant marketing on their part.

 

[Trisha Lynn]

Awesome video.

That was quite awesome. Loved it! The whole Sin City look was just perfect.
I'd imagine it would be a pretty interesting game.

And for some reason I didn't notice the Sim/Sin pun... I'm bad at geekery.

Actually, neither did I. I was thinking, for a Sin City parody, this is pretty good!
