Mopitus Reflects on Dictionary |

| This is a great skit because, among other reasons, it's short and sweet; sometimes when Walter and I sit down and write skits, they get a little drawn out, since we tend to take things overboard (great example: Witness
Protection). Dictionary is just so straight-to-the-point, so it keeps the attention of the average listener. Another thing this skit demonstrates is how great of a voice-over voice Vic Arious has! He must have gone to voice-over school, or something, you know? Sadly enough -- and this is a reflection on society, not this skit -- I can see Hollywood actually making a movie called Dictionary, and having it pretty much have the same plot, and having it marketed the exact same way. And it being a number one box office hit. Listen to the outtakes if you get a chance! Including the words and the word "set," as read so eloquently by Walter. I think I realized the scope of this skit when I was home for Thanksgiving this year, and someone at the dinner table started talking about the dictionary (the book, not the skit) and my brothers all started going "Words are not enough!" and stuff. Classic. |
