Sissy: Welcome back as we take another stroll down the theatre aisles to catch the next Wolfenstein video on our "to view" list... Heron in the Air by massz! This trick/stunt flick weighs in at 288MB but there is also a streaming version available if you prefer it.
Eggbert: [whisper] Ah man, why a trickumping movie? I can never tell if the tricks are new. [/whisper]
Sissy: [whisper] Shhh, neither can I, just fake it. [/whisper]
Eggbert: [whisper] Ah, gotcha. [/whisper]
Sissy: Let's take it from the top! I liked the brief opener, it wasn't anything spectacular but I liked the music. I found it very well video-suited. But then the movie sort of turned into a trailer for itself, which was odd and a bit off-putting. For example:
Are you bored of the old jumps?
Let's open the new year
With some new tricks!
Eggbert: Yup, a little bit trailery. But WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA check out those awesome tricks!!!
Sissy: He hasn't done any yet.
Eggbert: Oh, right. [whisper] cue me next time [/whisper]
Sissy: [whisper] cue [/whisper]
Eggbert: HAHA did you like that part where he pushes his bum in the wall to get up on the bookcase? I was all like "HAHA he's pushing his bum into the wall to get up on that bookcase!". Well actually I was bored at first because it looked like he was just standing there and I was like "move damnit, do something you lazy Hungarian trickjumper!".
Sissy: Yowsa, calm down there Eggy. Yeah I pretty much thought the same though. He did spend quite a bit of time squatting in that little room.
Eggbert: HAHA did you see when he was crawling on the top of the tree? I was all like "HAHA he's crawling on that tree, he's gonna get thorns in his weiner!".
Sissy: Sigh. [whisper] Think you can go back to whispering? [/whisper]
Sissy: For some reason this video clicked for me. I think in good part due to the music, at that moment while watching it I really got into the the soundtrack. I also enjoyed watching the tricks, of course. I can't really speak for graphics as I wussed out and watched the streaming version. The movie ended with a minute left on the clock, but the credits were well done and once again, I liked the music a lot and thought it was well suited to a game flick. Overall, if you are an Enemy Territory video fan or just a trickjumping video fan, I say go for it!
Eggbert: [whisper] Me too! [/whisper]
Sissy: Eggbert liked it too!
Eggbert: Yes! Me likey movie.
Sissy: So from this cat, we're going to go with one and a half boners all the way up!
Eggbert: Ditto, except my boners are "Bigger, Longer and Uncut". HAHA! Get it? South Park the movie? HAHA! I rock.
Sissy: Yeah okay. So until next time this is Sissy and Eggbert saying... go to the movies!
