  2. Mike Reed says:

    Pretty impressive but also if this is original content the production cost must have been pretty steep .

  8. Bart says:

    Very cool. How does one get to shoot on the bridge of an aircraft carrier? Or is that a sneaky composite? If so, even cooler!

     
  9. Stu says:

    Hey all, thanks for the votes and comments! There will be some “the making of” details about this entry at prolost.com in the next few days.

  23. luke says:

    haha.. love it. well done dude.

     
  24. Joe Stripa says:

    OK OK, I realize that a lot of effort went into production on this but it seems like THAT is what you are basing this whole thing on. That is only half the battle. The idea itself wasn’t very funny or clever. It feels like you thought, how can we impress people and then built an idea around that. Cool effects but remember, story always is the most important.

     
  25. Derrick van Niekerk says:

    Very good work Stu, got my vote!

    Very cool concept.

  30. Jay Russell says:

  31. Darryl Cragun says:

  32. kim says:

  33. Elizabeth Thompson Brazinski says:

  34. jc says:

    Mission accomplished…
    That’s friggin hysterical. Nice work Stu.

     
  35. Paul says:

    Great Job!
    Love it

     
  36. Gerald says:

    That turned out great!

     
  37. Derek Byrne-professional actor says:

    Obviously everybody’s friends are voting for their friends’ videos, as am I. But if I honestly compare this to the many others I watched, this one most closely goes with swa’s campaign, has the best production value, is original, and most of the others were just plain bad!

     
  38. Derek Byrne-professional actor says:

    I doubt Joe Stipa has seen any of the other videos, or the previous swa commercials. This is the best of the lot. Plus that guy in the brown coat is HOT!

     
  39. Kylie says:

    He was hot, huh? I should try to get his number…

     
  40. Shawnya says:

    Awesome! Great job! And yes, he IS hot!! ;)

     
  41. meep says:

    Meh, it’s OK I guess because the loud crash is at least attention-getting. As far as the special effects go…sometimes less is more.

     
  42. Ramon says:

    Love it! How’d you manage to bag a shot on the bridge of a big boat though?
    My wife was in the Royal Navy…she loves it when I call them boats ;)

     
  43. Neil says:

    Another very well done spec. Congrats! I think My favorites are “this” and “the funeral” spot.

     
  44. dav says:

    watch out for that carrier!

     
  45. Jon says:

    Awesome! This spot looks like it must have cost a million bucks!

     
  46. Kelly says:

    It was good, not sure I understand the humor…almost to literally. The guys running, and the captain just backing away..it would have been funnier if their had been other people in the deck or on the boat that the captain had to give a look to.

     
  47. Clancy says:

    Good…

     
  48. Johnny says:

    Know how you can tell that most ofthe comments are from friends? Most people don’t even know what a carrier is let alone that this ship is one…

     
  49. Ralph says:

    Funnnnnny!! Nice CGI work…it looked real!

     
  50. Damien Benoit says:

    Great job!

     
  51. Alexander Gao says:

    I love this, Stu! Almost as cool as Sin City!!!

    By the way, gotta tell ya. I love the DV Rebel’s Guide.
