So i've just found WATS on joox and the comments about it are hilariously negative.

"Its like one of those awful late night student films you'd see on Channel 4 in the late 80's, except its been spun out to over an hour instead of five tedious minutes. Terrible. Utter garbage made by a talentless moron. "

"Pure rubbish. First: ideological, simplistic nonsense. Probably inspired by gender feminist propaganda. Second: incoherent, disjointed, and non-directional, which would be fine if there were some kind of reasonably qualified aesthetic/artistic replacement, but there is none--just an absence of a good story line. The only thing redeemable is the animation. If only it were arranged and used more productively, instead of a melange of diverse styles thrown together for no reason. Putting all types of stuff together and expecting it to just work doesn't cut it. Try that with food and you end up with an upset stomach, as I did watching this "piece." This isn't creative or nourishing--it's thoughtless. Finally, it's just plain immature thinking. All girls want is ice cream (which of course is preferable to sex) but those evil men keep thwarting them... Am I supposed to be impressed by such a premise as, men are "pure-e-vile" (what a clever play on words!), and girls are "not so bad?" Am I supposed to feel sorry for women--grown adults--who choose to peddle their flesh for cash because they're lazy, or they think it's easy money, or any number of reasons pertaining to bad character, and just plain dumb life choices? Sorry, but that does not constitute "exploitation." That's just dumb ho syndrome. Overall, this video sucks. And to doctor.satan: (dude, or dudette--doctor.satan?--seriously??) it figures you would need drugs to appreciate this. Only a garbage head might be able to do so. "

"Too bad it is utter shit and the animation is puerile garbage then. "

Sigh... seems like they're are a lot of disempowered defeated people out there who are self immolating due to jealousy and feelings of worthlessness ^ ^ So they surf free movie sites and complain...so sad... If you encounter such opposition in your lifetime while doing award winning internationally renowned work...just remember this quote by Einstein...

"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly."

Your here because you see something the average person cannot... I am proud to say that We are The Strange fans are the most talented, unique and interesting people I have ever met...

Ha yeah, it's also funny how its mainly just 2 people.

hahah I cant even be mad at those comments. They are fucking hilarious xD

I just love the whole IT MUST MEAN SEX

WOW.  I can't believe people could be so narrow-minded.  Those comments, as hilarious as they are, are also poorly stated in the sense that these people have no idea what they're talking about.  When I watched WATS, my first thought about Blue and Sinister was not about sex, not entirely anyway.  And how the FUCK did sex get represented by ICE CREAM!?!?!?  I mean, I know really hella good ice cream is sometimes orgasmic, like those Dazzlers from Haagen Dasz, or that Cotton Candy ice cream from Cold Stone.... especially with those rainbow sprinkles... and hot fudge sundaes from DQ, wow *puddle*.  But to say that all girls want "ice cream", is just ridiculous, when we don't really get a full-on bio of Blue and how she came to work there.  Hilarious indeed.  Note to self: next time I publicly insult someone's masterful movie, learn to insult them without grammatical errors and such.

MDot, don't pay any attention to this negative shit.  The praises of the many, outweigh the censures of the few.  All us WATS weirdos LOVE your movie, and I know that I can't possibly wait for the new movie to hit stores.  ^_~

I seem recall a theory of mine:
The majority of critics fall under two categories.

A: The over intelligent nerd who took a "art of film" class or two and decides he knows something about films.  But, since he lacks any sort of talent, becomes a critic.

B: Morons who like the same old stuff.

The quote by M-dot says it all.  PEOPLE ARE DUMB AND LIKE, GET ANGRY WHEN THEY SEE SOMETHING NOT DUMB.

Funny part is he obviously had -NO GRASP- about the movie yet used pretended to be smart. Obviously a category A critic.

I can see that with peoples music tastes sometimes.

people have a right not to like every thing but if they have to be mean about it thats not nice.  it just shows how big of a loser they are and that make me laugh!
