Juan, you deserved it, and don't even say you didn't. You can still use it, so just shut it.

As a friend/fan of Daff for some time I told him I would write a full review of his video so I find it once again on me to put my spin on this video.

Video Name: Post Mortem (After Death)
Stunter(s): Daffy ft. Tackleberry (guest)
Video Size: 131 MB (Unpacked)
Video Length: 5:34
Other Info: As this is Daffy's last solo he wished for this video to be a true test of his stunting skills. Implying in the thread title the video has no stunts that could be considered as "filler"
------

Editing: Daffy has always had a flare for editing, everything from his videos to our many community projects Daffy has never dissappointed nor gone back to old concepts with his editing. Fresh and new is the best way to describe the way Daffy took this video to its limits. Every stunt feels like its moving along side of the music even the intro had a cinematic feel to it that draws you in. The ending of the video leads off with the title of the video which made it feel more like a trailer, in the respect that... I wanted more when it was over and done with.

10/10

Stunts: Talk is cheap, this is a video that fully delievers everything it promises. Post Mortem is full of some of the most impressive stunts, even as easy as some of them may seem to the eye. Daffy nails each stunt with such force that even the backing track jolts with each impact of bike to earth. Watching the video I could feel this... strange force that I haven't felt since, a DA video oddly. The stunts had this flare and style to them that just said "Fuck you" that works hand in hand with the "no fillers" to truly make this video a spectacle to behold.

10/10

Music: As strange a selection as Daffy may or may not have had, this video stands out in how it was combined. Music and video working hand in hand to fully bring the viewer into the video. Something rare in videos these days. Daffy takes what he is given and runs with it, all the way to the bitter end.

10/10

OVERALL: Being Daffy's fairwell video (at least for the time being) I must say he does it with a rockstar flare, in that, he goes out with a bang and not a whimper. Post Mortem may be the video to beat in the next chapter of the GTAS Forum Awards, as this is one of the best things to hit the stunting world in a good while. With a raised fist held high, giving credit to another stunter. Post Mortem gets all of:

10/10


Cheers

Nice review MA.  How about we keep all of this stunt stealing business out so the thread doesn't have to get the axe.  Daffy made a great video, and regardless of controversy people should be able to d/l as well as comment on the video.

Bloodyhook, what you just said was a load of shit smile.gif doing a normal RAD under normal circumstances doesn't give you dumbass weird speed boosts at all... crazy RAD method = 190ft+, normal RAD=pretty much what you can acheive without a RAD.

It gives you a speed boost. And I don't need it. I don't see the part where I'm full of shit.

 I didn't say you were full of shit... and yea a speed boost of what? a couple of mph more... what's possible with RAD is possible without RAD...

RAD's method in VC gives you a boost. You cant deny it.

This was great Daffy, really good job. The stunts were all top notch, ones I would never have been able to do or even come up with, I liked all of them. Hard to say which ones were my favs cause they were all great, but the one thats in my head the most (after just finished watching it for the first time) is that VC construction site to bridge grind, but as I said, all were tops. And the editing... wow, great again from the Daffmiester, solid editing throughout, and I really loved that bit just before the main with all the clips with the blueness, that looked really cool. And once again, the video quality of your vid looked better than my uncompressed fraps clips, lol. Nice work man, you really went out with a bang. I hope to see more in the future sometime.

DLing....

You know I rarely do this kind or reviews...I would really have to like a video for me to do one. So here it goes.

Intro: Really well thought out but simple too (who's the assasin?   im gonnna kick his ass)  

Stunts:
1:01 - Really cool grind from boat to boat, Stopping on the grind would have been a bitch.
1:13 - an "ok" p2b, low, maybe a bit far.
1:21 - hehe cool stunt, I dont know if you were going for that back flip thing, but it worked out nice.
1:29 - Nice BB landing, I can't help but think you used the no bushes mod, IMO that mod is gay (sorry X)
1:35 - Nice job Tacky....old (I dont blame ya since you stunt SA)...but nice to see anyways.
1:50 - oooooo all the way through.....cool as hell  
2:09 - WTF  ...such a small ledge to bump, nice job
2:18 - Nice cork to grind *calls the coast guard* "There is a stunter drowning again"
2:24 - I tried that BB once, I couldn't help but stop trying it because of my gay LC...nice job on it.
2:31 - nice nice
2:40 - I tried that BB once, I couldn't help but stop trying it because of my gay LC...nice job on it.
2:47 - oooooo WW is gonna be pissed (If he isnt already)  
2:53 - Cool climb
3:13 -   awesome grindage...ZX knew that was possible....nice way to put on the breaks too
3:29 - Nice grind on the weird wall
3:39 - It would have been better to put a complete run up  ....really far bump dude, nice
3:47 - Nice p2b  
3:52 -   Poor Juan...really well done man, truly amazing.

Editing: You know I concider you the best editor, there is nothing else to say.

It's time to move this to the fav folder

Offtopic: About the Juan stunt deal thingy. Here is how I look at this situation.
When someone shows you a completed stunt and you already have been trying, you still have the right to complete the stunt because you found the stunt. It doesn't matter if the other stunter is gonna cry about it. If you honestly found the stunt you can use it if you get to nail it. Juan's stunt I had found ages ago, I just didnt know it was possible. Just like I did to WW and the pink roof landing in Mut8tion, I found it (he already had done it, I could care less). So stop being a baby and deal with it.

I know you don't want us to mention this but, i'm gonna wait for the MQ version to come out before I rate. LQ sucks and HQ is too good and my poor lil' compy can't handle it.
