Haha, that was great. The “Remind Me” video style works surprisingly well on this story. The wolf hearing about LRRH’s grandma and thinking up with grandma’s Nutrition Facts is classic.

That was great!!! I loved it when the wolf thought of the Nutritional Facts for grandma, too. lol

That’s was a really cool style to tell the tale of Riding Hood.

The song is “Sponsored by Destiny” by Slagsmålsklubben.

So slickly done and strange. It’s a post-modern deconstruction of fairy tales – devoid of emotion or moral meaning. Lots of intertextual asides. Ceberbral, cool and a bit silly. The Brother’s Grimm would be like whuuuiiit?
