With better direction and higher production values, this would be an amazing short film. The acting was spot on, the characters were hilarious, and the crowd when I saw a screening at the BHFF roared.
I would like to see this cast do a feature (with a different director and a bigger budget, of course).
The film's plot as presented in the short might not be re-workable into a feature, but I would not mind seeing a totally different film starring this troupe.
Sort of how Broken Lizard's first short "Tinfoil Monkey Agenda" had nothing to do with their features "Puddle Cruiser" or "Super Troopers," I would love this bunch of actors to tackle a full length story.
What I want is for them to stay with the Mockumentary style -- I want more Spinal Tap-style films but with a younger cast. Anf for those who say, just turn to Christopher Guest's films, I say that some people are a little tired of that same cast. We miss the energy and zest of Parker Posey.
Hooray For Everything has it. The group's inter-dynamic is great.
Also, I understand that the cast performs in New York City. Has anyone seen the Hooray For Everything Improv show?

I saw this in New York at The Tank and it was amazing. All these guys need a great script and they'll take off. The script of this film was funny. But it was simple, more like a basic introduction to the types they can pull off as a group. But clearly they are capable of much more. Even the style of joke delivery varies so much that you know that if handed a script that pushed the envelope they would eat it up. You can actually see an early version of this film at hooray4everything.com I understand that they are working on a script. But I think they need to try to work on someone else's story to be great. If they make their own stuff they'll just serve their own additions.
