Maybe I'm late to party with "Jon Benjamin has a Van", but I just watched the 1st episode last night and this sketch made me laugh like an idiot for several minutes. You Can't Shoot Here Sketch starts after the 60 sec show opening
Comic 1: Great Comic 2: Good Comic 3: bleeegghhhhhhh (it has some cool ideas, like the pull away revealing the half puppet, but man, it went there in the end)
Holy fuck. Did anyone else watch that Youtube Haiku video? I was doing okay until the 20th-Century-Fox bit, at which point I completely lost my shit. Like, laughed so hard I'm crying. Anyone? .... No one?
... aaaaaaand then again at the Henry-vaccuum-cleaner part. Oh man I must be tired.
I wasn't blown away completely by ATB but I do reckon the action and general look and feel of it showed enormous potential. Remove Joe Cornish from having to convincingly write dialogue for cliched London 'yout' characters and I think he will rock it.
Seriously. As I said in the other thread where this is mentioned, /ATB/ has about the closest sense of dark sci-fi humor and tension to /Snow Crash/ that I can imagine. Specifically, the character of Y.T. would seem to be right at home in the group of kids from /ATB/, so yeah. There's hope.
