So as we were so kind to bring to your attention yesterday, Machinima has been absolutely killing it on the new show trailer front. And as luck would have it, the first new show dropped yesterday just in enough time for me to reserve the roughly two minutes it would take for me to watch. Not like I had a busy schedule or anything as I was mostly just working out and hammock shopping, but I’m just crazy about lists and schedules so I had to write it down! OCD is awesome.

Sadly, I wish I’d had forgotten to put this one on the calendar. When your debut episode is centered on Jar Jar Binks spoofing pretty much every Rob Schneider movie, well I guess there’s no where to go but up. It feels to me that this show was a bit rushed. Too many little things were messed up for this to be considered up to what is normally Machinima’s high standard. Like the very first trashcan gags sound effect was off, from my count almost a full beat. C’mon guys, I may not have a certificate or degree in this stuff, but I do have ears. The art is pretty basic and borderline clunky as well. It’s upsetting that a show I really anticipated being solid turned out to be a wet fart. It could have been a shart, but just like the video, I don’t want to check it again. Step it up guys, I wanna see this show succeed!

To boost the score a bit, here’s a pic of Rob Schneider…
