Nov 18, 2008 - OMG I saw this when I was a kid. That video scared the hell out of me- still kinda does... lolFor awhile though I was bent on trying to figure it out, like does it mean something about conforming to people, ie being someone you're not, etc. Then again I overanalyse things... lol

Nov 18, 2008 - strange how everyone was scared of that eye part with the strange music - so was I! but this is definitely one of the best Aardman short films...especially the bar scene

Nov 18, 2008 - brilliant, so abstract, like a warhol film. when i watched this as a young kid, i never understood them, now i can view them differently

Nov 18, 2008 - This is just a classic example of the British lifestyle. Get up, pissed off, have a mouth full off the partner, late for work, try too hard with the boss, go to the pub, get drunk and end up looking like a idiot. When you miss a part of the cycle, things start to go astray.

Nov 18, 2008 - Excellent animation, and story. I remember seeing this about 13 years ago. Am I right in thinking this was about the British working man's life and inability to escape?

Nov 18, 2008 - haha, the dog in there's the same as rex the runt.. thought i'd point that out
DoctorPika Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - this clip is supposed to be someone so caught up in the world that he can't seem to find himself. as a result, he tries to be everyone else, which ruins him. in the end, he finds the only way toe scape is to be himself. which ends up not even working out apparently. one of my favorite aardman clips.
