Since Cyraxx has no money and actual drive see things through, it comes as no surprise that this wasn't rectified. | ||
* '''Poor acting'''; It goes without saying that a good film needs a solid cast to bring the script to life. Unfortunately, Cyraxx's acting feels more like a comedy skit. He constantly stares straight into the camera and can't do anything without immediately looking back at the lens. At best, this breaks the fourth wall. At worst, it shows Chance is so focused on getting the perfect shot that he ruins the audience's suspension of disbelief. | * '''Poor acting'''; It goes without saying that a good film needs a solid cast to bring the script to life.

* '''No Cinematography'''; Even if Chance's equipment was perfect, the poor cinematography ruins any sense of impact. Many are either static or shot in a lazy "vlog-style." and this amateurish camerawork seems mostly due to laziness and a lack of friends to help film. | * '''No Cinematography'''; Even if Chance's equipment was perfect, the poor cinematography ruins any sense of impact.

Chance looks inside his fridge. He closes it after seeing it's empty. He calls his "friend" to arrange a meetup with nothing connects these two scenes. After Chance talks to the camera again, we cut to him standing beside a road. He accepts that his friend won't show up and decides to take a walk near the forest (why not just go home?). Soon after, an invisible apparition starts pushing Chance around. He begins to run... deeper into the forest. He proclaims the apparition to be "The Force Of Darkness". | |||

It cuts back to Chance sitting on his couch. He calls his friends even though We can see he's on the contacts app. Although we can see that nobody answered, Chance asks, "Who is this?" (He has no reason to think his friends wouldn't answer). The same loud soundbite from earlier plays again before Chance tosses his phone and hyperventilates. He then goes to sleep. (Which is a very rational choice after realizing a dark malevolent spirit is out to get you). | |||

Chance uploaded a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rnv169H-dKw video] six days later of him "bending fire" as he poorly green-screens some purple fire into the screen with no sound, and the 2nd attempt had him fire bending with a fist. | Chance uploaded a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rnv169H-dKw video] six days later of him "bending fire" as he poorly green-screens some purple fire into the screen with no sound, and the 2nd attempt had him fire bending with a fist. | ||

Nn January 3rd, 2019, Chance uploaded a video of him "arguing" with himself, that's about as lazily written as it was edited. All he did was speak to a blank wall and horizontally flip the footage to make it look like he's talking to his clone, all in a glorious 360p, 15fps experience. | |||
There's no synopsis in the world that would do this short video justice, so instead, we're just gonna highlight a bunch of legendary quotes.<blockquote>''Chance (2): "Fuck you."'' | |||
''Chance (1): "Fuck you too."'' | |||
''Chance (2): "Sorry, not gay. So... yeah, I'm not gonna fuck you."'' | |||
''Chance (1): "... Eh, you never know- you might be... There's a first time for everything."'' | |||
''Chance (2): "Wait, are you gay?"'' | |||
''Chance (1): "No, just saying- there's a first time for everything."''</blockquote><blockquote>''Chance (2): "... Whatever, just shut up and go on somewhere.."'' | |||
''Chance (1): "Like... where am I supposed to go? We're both stuck in this... three-dimensional world."''</blockquote><blockquote>''Chance (1): "That's right, you are crazy."'' | |||
''Chance (2): "Heh... says the one with the fucked up haircut."'' | |||
''Chance (1): "Yeah well... I may have a fucked up haircut, but at least I'm not a midget."''</blockquote><blockquote>''Chance (2): "Yeah... when we get home, your ass is mine."''</blockquote> | |||
