Tell me what doesn't make sense, what works, what doesn't. I am attempting to make humorous videos. This is my second one based on the UNC NCAA investigation.

What ya think?

UNC-Chapel Hill football players are effeminate and it'd be great if they blew up (instead of blowing each other. get it, get it, Chapel Hill kids are queer, hehehehe).

the premise is inherently weak as it hinges on the mindset that b/c someone stays in a different house and wears a different color then there's something wrong with them.

this weakness is high-lighted, and exacerbated, when you make the point in such obvious, unsurprising terms.

and then for the end of video, a guy wakes up from an apparent nightmare and there's suddenly the image of some black dude (a UNC football player?). huh?

I love surreal, silly, absurd humor. but I can't stand nonsense. there's a big difference (Monty Python/Mr. Show vs. the worst of the Lonely Island stuff). at the core of absurd/surreal humor is an idea of some kind, at the core of nonsense is a void.

that being said, its cool that you put that together. being creative and trying to be funny is a good time.

and the most important thing is if you think its funny. although, as I wish for from everyone, hopefully you'll produce things that cater to my tastes in the future.

The beginning works. It's obviously a Carolina Football dance party. Surely nothing bad will happen to our football team!

Then someone shows up and things explode. There wasn't any obvious connection, because I have no idea who that guy with the bomb was. The explosion scene drags on too long and the laughing skull makes no sense. Was there actually a jet bomber or was it a suicide bombing? Something indicating the scandals would give this context.

The last scene has even less coherence. It took me about 3 (painful) watches to notice the weird UNC thing floating above the guy's head.
It is in no way apparent that this is a UNC fan and he was dreaming.

"Oh it was all just a dream. OMG it's Russell Wilson!"
I see what you were going for, but it's too quick and random to be enjoyable. Why is Wilson in bed with that UNC guy? I think a better scene to use would have been the one from Godfather where the guy wakes up and finds his favorite defensive line's horse's head bleeding in his bed.

What you really need is an adaptation of this video made in 3-D IMAX starring Nicholas Cage. I guarantee it will make more money than Scott Pilgrim.

Oh, and what program did you use to make this?
