I kind of had an idea about this movie before watching this vid, but not much. THis made me reallly want to watch it; it looks weird, heart warming, and funny; just looks great. You're editing was great and the song choice, I felt like it fit hte theme of the video. Nicely done.

Yay! That was one of my main motives for making the vid, Brook. I think there are a lot of misconceptions about this movie and I wanted to show off how special it is. It's all those things you describe and more.

And as much as I love this Mercury Rev song, the actual movie soundtrack is another great reason for seeing the film (along with the directing, the script, the two lead performances, the visual aesthetic, etc)

First off, love your warning of "extreme weirdness" LOL. This was very unique. I really liked your vid and I think you did a great job of showing the funny and heartwarming sides of the movie. Great job!

Hehe, yes...'Swiss Army Man' is not an especially violent or sexually explicit film (well, I left the most explicit shots - of Manny's erection compass- out of this video) but I still feel the need to warn people about how weird it is. Because anyone who I've shown the trailer to has been weirded out.

I'm really glad the heart is what came through for you though. That was my intention.
