Wedding invitation research part 2 - bigger hit

And now for something completely different...
I have no ideas if it was one of them behind the concept and the editing process but this is just too good to be true.
The whole movie displays an amazing knowledge of contemporary blockbusters both music-wise and with the visuals (the indiana jones logotype for instance). It's a good fun and has this romantic edge to it as well (which is something to be very careful with - there's a very thin line between 'cute' and 'cheesy').
Put together very nicely, I liked how it featured the mixture of casual and dynamic footage, much like the popular form of a movie trailer which it was supposed to mock.
This production is a good example how someone educated in contemporary arts (or at least someone going to the theatre every now and then) has a great advantage over a casual video-maker. The ability to paraphrase some iconic and memorable scenes gives a nice angle to a production as well as makes the viewer laugh. This is accompanied with a selection of music from several big productions, it just all fits well. Thumbs up, very high.
After all I am just a part of random audience and I still enjoyed. I surely can imagine all the laugh their families had.
