My friend and I live at opposite ends of the continent, yet we made this video together. Ah! What an age in which we live!
In a hopeful tribute to what's yet to come we present an optimistic picture-packed-presentation reminding Americans of the greatness awaiting us !

(2,284 posts)My compliments. Y'all did a good job putting that together. Doesn't the Academy Awards have a short film/video category? Now I'm trying to figure out what the point of it is. I'm sure there's one there somewhere, but I haven't figured out yet what it is...

I guess the point is to have a laugh in the face of our less than desirable circumstances. Thanks for watching and commenting!

(12,712 posts)That was entertaining and bordered a bit on Firesign Theater-style at times, (which is a compliment if you know about their work).
Good production and editing, as well.
Thanks!

(53,410 posts)Your friends narrating voice is perfect in every way. Pitch, tone, timing, and very pleasant.
A work of art is never fully appreciated in just one viewing. I do sincerely think this is art. You always get something more in each viewing.
For your kind words. I'm delighted that you enjoyed our little movie. We're gonna make another one soon!

But lots of other goodies in there too.
