I think I’ve said this for the last couple Consecutions, but seriously folks. This is the best Consecution we’ve had here since Batman.


Gordon Year One by g1orkatsos – 9/10
A damn fine short, I loved how the narrative was condensed.

The Equation of Crime by That One Guy – 8/10
Well this was pretty trippy. Great editing work overall. The text cards worked with the narrative and had a nice stylistic flair to them, but for me I didn’t like having to read the story.

SuperCop by Leeroy – 8/10
I was pretty surprised how good this was. The last Leeroy edit I saw was The Killer Bride and he’s come quite a long way. This was an awesome ride! There were quite a few literal laugh out loud moments. And bravo for the editing in the shoot-out. The audio editing was a bit sloppy though. Step up your game on that and you’ll be on fire.

Fatal Weapon by The Man Behind the Mask – 8/10
Overall ‘twas good times. The ending felt tacked on but it made sense. I liked it but I don’t know, I guess I just wanted more.

Lahey by Adabisi – 9/10
Great fawking short here boys. I mean Jesus fawk if I t'weren’ta a guy who watches the… you know… the original show… Uh… what was I saying? Oh cripes, my shit pool overflowed.

The Naked Gun by matrixgrindhouse – 6/10
I’m sad to say it, this was the stinker for me. I was intrigued by the concept and wasn’t sure how well it would work out. So yeah… turning Naked Gun into a serious story don’t work. There’s so much that’s cut that every cut is noticeable. The editor tried to cover that up with a sort of grindhouse treatment that felt awkward. I hate slamming fan edits and I loved MGH’s first edit and think he’s brilliant. This felt like a Frankenstein. Maybe it’ll be good for you, kind of in a midnite movie way.

The Counterfeit Cop Caper by DominicCobb – 10/10
Holy carp. This was perfect. Beautifully done black & white. Awesome music. Perfect editing. I would say I’m jealous that I didn’t make this, but the truth is I’m glad I never made this. Dom did it so much better. This is the best of all the shorts in this project.
