I have to admit I didn't have high expectations going into this, but I really liked the sense of humor in this film. It was rather Pythonesque so to speak, and I got a few good chuckles out of it.
Now you sit right down cowpokes an' we'll be telling you the story of Jeremiah Jedidiah Joe, and why the cactus industry just ain't all it's cracked up to be!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Haha!
Is this a new film, or did I just miss it when you posted it before on BiM?
Either way, it's an enjoyable affair. The recurring joke is used just enough to squeeze every laugh possible out of it while avoiding overusing it and letting it grow annoying. The plot itself is fun, lighthearted, and creative, channeling the western cliches to its advantage.
The western atmosphere is established well and maintained well through the sets and plot developments and the opening premise concerning cactuses (cacti?) and the ending with the new job keep things fresh and creative. ''
The comedic timing is great, as is the voice acting.
I guess I'm far too unfamiliar with your films to quite understand the very ending. It felt like the group of people, at least some, were recurring characters from a series, but not familiar ones. As such, the "Noah" joke fell a bit flat for me. The "credibility" joke was good, but that whole ending segment just felt strange. The most confusing part was 3:21, as I thought previously the purple cape dude was JJJ in the far past, not a modern character telling the story in the modern setting. It was only after reviewing that portion several times that I noticed the red couch edge in that shot and put the pieces together.
Still, it's a delightful and fun film overall.
Thanks for the kind words, Pritchard!
To answer your last question, I made this film reusing characters from some shorts I did for a BIONICLE channel way back when; those characters are Bob and Randy and would get a more proper introduction in a later film. Noah Sprague Studios voiced JJJ, so I added him as a last-minute cameo to say thanks. Captain Existential showed up in an earlier film that I may post here when I get the time.
Thankfully now, I've gotten a bit more organized with my characters so if I ever made another JJJ-style story (maybe with one of Randy's ancestors!) then I can keep the storyline cleaner. Hope that helps!
A fine story you got there partner!
Yee (and I cannot stress this enough) haw
