aL_ i can totaly relate.. my profile picture was taken by my last "bug" just as it wa about about to get "resolved"

-
spivonious lol that was awesome!
-
CRPietschmann Awesome!
Did he kill them with the VS'10 Beta 2 Install Disc, or the RTM??
-
Jarrod That was freakin' awesome. The first video I've seen with Laura and Tina together. And Dan killed them! I'll never forgive you, Dan.
-
AndyGa Dan is truly scary.
-
CKurt There heads on the wall at the end were really cool
-
CbrAInK the next time my boss want's me to work "longer" I'll just show him this ... nice job!
-
PaoloM High praise on the production values!
-
ChrisStepaniuk Poor Tina and Laura.. Dan, it's time for some stress leave. The sequel should be a Christmas Carol or something.
-
Dan Great work Laura, this was all her
As for Visual Studio 2010, Beta 2 install disc, it's sharper
-
ColSanders That was a good one. Especially since the last "bug" was trying to get away in a 'bug' {volkswagon}
-
Daniel Smith As with all great fiction, it's probably rooted in some elements of truth. Laura and Tina certainly portrayed the irritating chattering bugs with great skill!
-
dentaku Dan has that ominous Half-Life G-Man look in black and white.
-
Charles Great stuff! This really captured the essence of Dan
Great work, Laura (she produced this)!
C
-
jason818_253.33 scary!
I like bunny’s and rainbows.
-
rhm That was really good!
Although the scariest part was Laura and Tina chatting at full volume
-
Bas That was totally awesome. Dan is terrifying.
Look, you confused the Kotaku people with that trophy wall!
-
firth Wow, that's pretty scary! Way better than "Paranormal Activity"!
I was wondering, though, which building was that filmed in? It looks familiar.
-
figuerres SICK....
-
krpadman This is ULTIMATE CREATIVITY !!! Awesome ! Happy Halloween !
-
krpadman Superb !!!
-
thiebaude I don't know how many times i watched this already, but this is really good.
-
dm32813281 Retarded.
How many DVDs did you waste down that stairwell?
The checks were hot.
The black and white is what made this worth watching.
-
Charles The Grinch only shows up at Christmas, so what's your costume?
C
-
dahat While I can totally see Dan going crazy like this... I just don't see him wearing a tie to work without being forced to... which come to think of it could also bring on this kind of outcome.
-
dmshann0n Are those.. Horde trophy heads?
-
staceyw Only takes 3 CDs to down a softie? humbug. It would take one milllllliion CDs. How did the post production on that and what was used?
-
oscar.cabrero if those CD's were containing VS2010 Beta 2 imagine what u can do with a disc with a RTM release.
Great Video!
-
joaoalbuquerque AHuHAuha !!! Very Funny ! Happy Halloween !
-
aarthi Am I the only one who finds this video pretty weird? I get the whole it's-Halloween-so-lets-go-way-over-the-top idea, but what's with the two women chatting non-stop and the "developer" seeing them as bugs? I find it ridiculous and borderline offensive. Mind you, I'm all for good humor, but this wasn't even funny!
-
La Bomba It could have been men, just so happens the actors were women. Get over it.
nice production value on the vid.
Happy Halloween C9!
-
Sabot Dan - you've missed your calling mate! Should have been an actor!
-
Dzejms Awesome. Had a Pi (the movie) kind of feel.
-
PeterAce Fantastic.
Really well done.
Love the B&W look....
Also perfect balance of hammy and scary....
-
wisnia That's exactly what first came to my mind
-
Bass Awesome comedy flick. I loved the happy ending.
-
Zeo What's written on dan's white board....there must be some easter eggs in this video...no?
Great job. Loved the chatty bugs!
-
Rohit H Just awsome!!
-
Tanveer Badar Wonderful. Loved it. May serve well as launch party.
-
Bas I also wondered what that thing was he made with his food. At first I thought it was the Visual Studio logo.
-
ChrisStepaniuk Superb video. I downloaded the Windows theme and I find myself showing the desktop (Win + Space), to see what that wallpaper that seeps through the taskbar is.
-
Laura10 Thanks everybody! We all worked hard on this and had a great time. Now taking suggestions for future C9 films!
-
tink @ChrisStepaniuk:
-
tink @ChrisStepaniuk: I agree I would like to see a sequel as a Christmas killing. This was really great, the annoying "bug" chattering office girls I can realate to.
