Philosophies of Life (shorts)

this will be the hardest review for me to write. partly because my momma always told me if i don't have anything nice to say, i shouldn't say anything at all. and also cuz i really, really like the programmer and i'm terrified he'll see this review and i would hate to upset/hurt him in any way. but.. yea. Philosophies of Life was not the best way to spend 2 hours of my life. it had its moments, to be sure, but they were sadly sparse. i really liked the first one (The Legend of El Limbo), a ridiculous little comedy. (although the sound was a horror show, being pumped out way too loudly for its capacity, and crackling through the speakers. this unfortunately happened with more than one of the shorts.) and i really loved Mathias, Mathias, a funky animated short from Hungary. overall though, let's just say i'm pretty sure most of these were made by students. who will probably grow up to be really fantastic. some day.
