Shorts

Watching shorts for the FUN. Initial thoughts: the movies should be shorter. I cringe when I see 19min. People should make comedies, because these serious ones make me almost want to puke - even when they're done well. But then again, the one I saw that attempted comedy was probably the worst one I've watched. Do people who aren't funny know they aren't funny?

Update: I can keep myself interested for about 4 minutes, but something exciting needs to happen within that time, something to pique my interest. Some intrigue, something. Why do filmmakers expect the audience to stay with them? High production value alone doesn't account for shit when watching a lot of shorts. And it's not that the p value is even that high, they're just "sort of" high, like when people purchase an old BMW just to have a BMW.
