Fun
Entertainment in Performance

The Japanese group Gamarjobat really knows how to take old ideas and make them entertaining. These are simple gags that we’ve seen a thousand times yet I find myself smiling and laughing as I watch utilize these simple tricks in their performance. I would say it’s a mix between the setups and misdirects, the sounds they use to imply the emotion and sell reactions, the interaction between the two, as well as knowing the simplicity of the gags themselves can be used to add humor to the show is what keeps me watching. Simple but well executed. Overall some fun mime work to watch!

Everything Will Be Ok
0March 12, 2011
I remember seeing Don Hertzfeldt’s Everything Will Be Ok in a film festival several years ago and from what I remember, I liked it. One part in particular made me laugh quite a bit, and I just happened to stumble upon that very clip so I thought I’d share it. This film, in comparison to most of his works, is a bit tame.
In this clip especially, the film latches on to mundane everyday things that almost anyone can relate with. It’s a strange concoction that makes you laugh and then immediately feel embarrassed, knowing your own idiosyncrasies would seem just as laughable to others.
This is just a short clip from the film. The whole thing is available for purchase on DVD from his website, www.bitterfilms.com

The game is over!!!
Check out yesterday’s answers.
The past three days have been tons of fun. You guys rocked the game and we were all impressed. In fact, a total of four people answered EVERY SINGLE triviriduzzle correctly. That means we had to defer to the clock to find our winners. Our first place winner sent in his answers only 23 minutes after the questions were posted yesterday, second place was hot on his heels at 37 minutes, and our third place winner at a mere 48 minutes.
First Place Winner, and recipient of the autographed Art of Megamind Book, is Jeffrey Simonetta!
Second Place, and recipient of the Megamind Bluray/DVD combo pack, is John Vielee!
Third Place, and recipient of the Megamind Poster, is Eleanor Dayton!
Honorable Mention goes to Jared Garcias who also never missed a single question.
A huge ‘thank you’ to everyone who participated. We hope you had as much fun figuring out these triviriduzzles as we had creating them.
