Heh, funny to see Cody there :D

But damn the video was lame and unfunny. Too bad, because somebody obviously spent a good deal of time making it...

i saw him. not sure what he was doing in there - or maybe it was a relative. i think the video must have some kind of philosophy behind it - generate random content and then narrate it perhaps.

If I remember correctly, the story was written by a young kid as fan fiction. People thought it was so stupid/funny that they used the game engine to turn it into a machinima. Here's the original and the sequel in plain text fanfic form.

I didn't see Cody.

But... but... it was so random and incoherent, and plain old silly - but without any monthy python appeal, or anything like it. Oh well, tastes differ :)

I thought it was funny, too. Probably because I'd already seen the first one and already got over the "What the heck was that stupid thing?" and learned more about the origins of how it came into existence. I think the narrator really does a good job of being dramatic and his inflection and tone are perfect for all the terrible spelling mistakes and crazy things the story says.

It's pretty funny if you think of it like those Mystery Science Theater 3000 movies. They are so stupid it's fun to watch just so you can laugh at how stupid it is.
