A Review: 2012

Thursday, 29 April 2010 by Ciaran McNamee

This is an interesting movie. We here at Half A Giraffe have had our run-ins with Roland Emmerich in the past, but let’s not hold that against his newest project. Open minds all ’round

2012 is somewhat remarkable in its unbashed non-intellectual approach to bombarding the audience with sludge. It’s clear from the get-go that our adventure won’t make any sense and that stupidity is the norm, but fear not!

The March Goes On

Monday, 12 April 2010 by Half A Giraffe

The observant among you will have noticed that we now have ads running on our site and a donate button. We are still in the process of developing the project without financial backing, so please bear with us during this early stage.

The donate button is there in case you are suddenly seized by a desperate fit of generosity and decide to give us anything from a handful of coppers (in electronic form) to a hundred quid towards the production costs of our next sketch. We will not be able to reimburse you, but can guarantee a Co-Producer credit for your kind assistance, not to mention our best efforts at a sketch that will make you wet yourself laughing.
