Here's a short film I made a few weeks ago.

Kinda saw everything coming. And to be honest, if you're gonna make a short film about a mentally challenged person, you need to make it so funny people forget how offended they are.

That was friggin' hilarious! Will there be a sequel?

Well that's what I was shooting for, it's not like this is a dramatic piece! It's supposed to be so over-the-top that you shouldn't feel offended.

mrde50 - Glad you enjoyed it! Sequel? Hmm, maybe!

Hey Bryan. I saw this a while back. I like it. It's entertaining, but I must say that most of your other films are waaaay better. Especially The Jug Movie and Superheroes! Murder Most Fowl was pretty hilarious too...

This film does have a pretty catchy theme song, though.

Let me rephrase what I said. Jokes about menatlly challenged folks are nothing new. To me, if you are gonna rise above the countless others out there doing this same thing you need better jokes than "Isn't it funny the retarded guy wants ice cream so bad he eats it off the ground!" I know this isn't a completely serious attempt at creating art, and I'm not saying everyone should be striving for that every time they make a short. It's just that, for my tastes, this didn't offer much more than cruel humor that's been done before.

True enough. But what about the fact that he could see into the future, or that he befriends a lawn gnome? ;)

Hey Logan! Yeah, I agree, it certainly isn't my best piece. But I'll promote it regardless. :)

The lead in for the surprise ending made it all woth while. Good job! :)

I've seen the precog retarded person before, but I have to admit, the Gnome was the best part (especially the line, "Wake Up!").

Look, I'm not saying you are bad or anything like that. I am just offering up an opinion - if you're gonna do subject matter that some might find offensive, you really have to make it so damn funny people forget they are offended.

Oh no, I realize that. I'm just being a goof.
