LoadingReadyRun: The Job

[MattAn24]

Ah, thanks for the clarification, Sir Bradley! I certainly recognized a lot of the music referenced during your segment on that LRRcast, I remember hearing it and going "Holy crap, I heard that yesterday while driving home... In Australia! :O"

And now that you mention Jonathan Singleton, I'm sure that's who I heard! Either way, awesome stuff ^^

 

[ucciolord1]

I love this. The ending was perfect.
You guys are becoming like, the Jack White of the Escapist. This is like, your third show, right?

Ahhh I know who you're talking about now. You're talking about Pete Murray. He's Australian. And I did a cover of his song 'Opportunity' which I played at the end of that podcast segment.

He and that song are virtually unknown here in the States, much like I am in Australia.

And here in the States, come to think of it.

Lets be honest, Bill and Morgan would just sit on the couch while it was being moved anyway.

 

[MattAn24]

...How did I not remember Pete Murray? :O I knew I recognized something from the segment.. Either way, you're definitely talented! Always good to hear your work accompanying LRR's videos!

Morgan and Bill sitting on the couch.. Wouldn't -that- be even more awesome comedy! \o/ Speaking of which, anyone else notice the "Morgan" written over that couch on the plans? Anyone get what the other couch has written on it..?

I'm not entirely sure what I just watched, but it was amusing so I'll go with it.

 

[daxterx2005]

Is it just me, or was that not funny.
I hope it gets better.

Care to elaborate at all, daxter? What didn't make it funny? What would you have preferred? I, personally (and hypothetically, if I were producing a weekly web series), would prefer that people who found it funny and people who didn't find it funny elaborate and discuss what could make it better. There's no point saying "That wasn't funny" when you're not saying at all why it wasn't funny. It's common courtesy if nothing more..

Nice buildup to a whoopie cushion...couch. I LoLed!

Always wanted to do a slo-mo walk scene like that. Absolutely epic, guys.

Now it's the Escapist's Editor slo-mo walk scene turn!

 

[ElephantGuts]

After watching the latest episode of Unskippable and then this, I am confident that LoadingReadyRun is a good thing for the Escapist.

 

[mklnjbh]

AHAHAHAH!! I just started watching around Desert Bus. (Actually, two days into Desert bus because I was home from school with Shingles, then I saw some of the other stuff). I'm glad you guys got this onto the escapist, and I hope you enjoy your new expanded fanbase.

I wasn't really going to type a full thing, I just wanted to know if I was alone or not on finding it not funny.
but I guess I can give you my insight.
The character introductions were all kinda lame/cheesy.
Some of them also heavily used pop culture in order to get some lolz...
Like the creator of the Tamagachi, or "the lolcats"
Which like Family Guy. So I guess if you like family guy you'll like this show.
Also how it ended....it felt perfect really gross frosting atop a gross cake D:

I guess if the show actually gets a plot, and changes its pop culture/stupid joke structure it could be better >.>

Also, This is not me starting a flame war. Its me answering a question.

 

[Hithlain]

I can't wait to see what you guys do!

 

[Captain Pancake]

Wait, so is this a permanent arrangement? is the series from this episode forward going to appear on the escapist only? I'm ashamed to say that this sudden appearance is a complete surprise to me...

 

[General_Qwetch]

the couch thing hit me unprepared really busted out laughing there

 

[Mr Inconsistent]

omg man, the setup was long, but the climax unexpectedly funny!!

 

[Asnone]

Great work, never doubted the move for a second, keep doing what your doing.

 

[jboking]

"You know I could have just done that with my mind right?" "god damn it Jer!"

haha, this should be great.

 

[Asnone]

So um.. does this mean no more "unskippable"? I logged on today to see the latest Unskippable and we got this instead?
Not sure I'm pleased with the trade-off.

The latest Unskippable is there, its the video next to LRR, "The Last Remnant, Part 2".

Awesome, that's all I asked and you delivered quite well! Thanks for the quick response, man. Major kudos to you for that. One thing though, I think someone from LRR will most likely explain fully later, but this is sketch comedy. There is -no- plot. Each and every episode is completely different and written as an entirely new video. Different characters, different situations. Sometimes, you'll get some extra throw-backs to past videos and such as a sort of fan-service, etc.. But yeah, there's not exactly a continuation.

commodoreHustle, the web series LRR started 2008-2009 was a continuing plot line and such, with a season finale and all, but that's changing in some way. In what way, I don't know, that's LRR's directive on how they end up doing it for The Escapist.
