I'm sorry, did I miss the official declaration of war?
I find humour in the work of all of the three - granted, Lynch's is much more polished and professional - but why is there such animosity between Stormin' Norman and Lynch & Andee? I see no reason why one group would decide that their material is funnier than the other.
The following critiques are simple observations and no hatredis implied or need be inferred...
Stormin' Norman needs a little more planning in his films - they seem hastily put together, and sometimes, just silly (Ben Affleck?), while at other times they have a crazed glee to them.
The characters in ANP are usually immobile - a possible reference to Hanna-Barbera cartoons, or maybe it's just easier to draw, but easy to lose interest in. Apart from that, the script is usually quite funny, and the characters are classic.
Andee's shorts need... I dunno, they're good already. Better lighting?
What's next though? Glen getting bashed for his strange dance-with-a-cat video he always links to?
Thanks for reading...
