    Bizarre
    NSOV (from West Midlands):
    How very odd… Seems ill conceived, or perhaps for 90 seconds we just had a very disjointed, albeit mildly entertaining, insight into someone’s bizarre thoughts. Mad as a balloon.

    Surreal drifting thoughts
    Chris (from Leamington Spa):
    I’ve seen some of Wrongboys art before. It’s surreal, abstract humour that appeals to the slightly disjointed mind. I think he’s a smart drifter, but I’ve got a slightly disjointed mind…

    hey!
    bob:
    Hey! I too have lost my job because of a large imaginary rodent.
    I am no longer a geophyisist because of a enormous gerbil called micheal.
    It’s true!

    mad genius
    paul (from uk):
    my favourite animation. mad and genius. hope it wins animation.

    Genius
    Mr K (from Bristol):
    Plain and simple genius

    quirky goes mainstream
    an anonymous reviewer (from london):
    this IS quirky.
    Quirky must go mainstream; let everyone have a chance to see this and think about it

    I’ve changed my mind
    Paddy:
    After compressing several versions of the film to put on the Depict site, I’ve been infected. My girlfriend and I now greet each other with “pooky” (with appropriate gestures)! I’ll probably be seeing Pooky himself soon!
