"Old/New" Narrated by Patton Oswalt (comedy short film by Seth Worley)

Old/New is the story of Drew McHugh, a man whose penchant for the new -- new devices, new fashion, new friends -- is challenged when he discovers the rustic appeal of old-fashioned things. He quickly becomes obsessed with the reclaimed and well-worn - plummeting face-first down the rabbit hole of novelty and nostalgia.

This is just great storytelling. Strict adherence to theme and device while being still being hilarious. Outstanding framing, pacing, sequencing, and execution. A rhyming storybook for the modern adult'ish human.

[@chiaradina]

pineappleboyfilms toads agree!

[@papermelon]

Legitimately better than ANY "award winning" short film i have EVER seen. This is the type of stuff that should be going viral. Absolutely awesome!

[@lilwank9602]

This is literally the best short film I have ever seen

[@carbonpictures]

Agreed

[@chedychedychedy]

who knew going to an art museum would make you a hipster

[@GrandGeneralKukov]

This is a very under appreciated film. Should have 10 times the hits. The skill on display in both production and writing is incredible. Bravo!

[@ljmastertroll]

This will never get old.

[@RomanMedvid]

Epic! Whoever wrote that poetry -- my heartiest complements to you, human being )

[@seacamtv]

Absolutely the funniest and best written short I have seen since "The Gun Fighter" not to mention the spectacular use of effects.

[@babaro1996]

Ryan Connolly?? Film Riot??

[@burgers8]

Likely. Ben Worley is professionally close with Ryan Connolly. He wrote the digital download music for the Triune Store.

[@seanwilcock9566]

Jeremy Bergen Naaa. Seth Worley and Ryan have written a couple of things together. They seem to be good friends. But yeah. Ben did write the music for the Triune Store too :)

[@kbourke]

***** Yeah, they're all friends - network of indie filmmaker friends

[@megaaliencraft]

Logic Gate I think this the new short film of "FRES", you know andrew's short film

[@asdfjkllkjfdsasdd]

I have never commented on a KZbin video. But, this was unbelievably awesome! True, subtle, and humorous. Fabulous pacing, expectations upended, cliches avoided. A jocular jaunt!

[@dereksextonhorani2966]

Are you serious Red Giant???!?? That was incredible!

[@23Balone]

Some part of Drew is living in every of us)

[@graemiller]

I find myself watching this over and over again. 😄

[@TimothyVechik]

It was amazingly awesome, it was fantastically great, and it has reminded me not to be late; but to instead focus on movies, because this film really did move me. So to all who will see it, and to all who will love, this film was inspirational, as if from above. So Seth keep on working, keep making things great, keep giving us presets to which all can relate.

[@cgvapors963]

This is so great. Can't believe it hadn't gone viral! It deserves to.

[@tomsorensen8221]

The easter eggs: delightful! This story is great! Thanks Seth and Aharon, this tale is first rate!

[@MrBracey100]

That was delightful, it comes across as sort of a more adult themed and modern Dr Seuss tale.

[@Antenox]

I feel like Brian/Drew/Matt/John's original name was Calvin and he used to own a stuffed tiger named Hobbes. I mean, a cloning machine? Time travel? Straight outta Calvin & Hobbes! The only discrepancy would be the lack of Suzy.

[@WoefulMinion]

She changed her name to Claire and became a museum curator. : )

[@TomTennisco]

This has all the charm and feel of "Pushing Daisies" wrapped up in a tightly scripted package. Well done!

[@Kodachrome40]

This poem has unique Dr. Seuss-like charm.

[@KevinJoys]

"I mean, what are boats made of? How do they float?" ROFL.. this is fantastic!

[@vnzkee]

Wow, totally missed this one. Still feels new:)

[@asherward1589]

I feel this could make a very good feature film. like. there is so much you hinted at in this film that could be expanded on in a feature. I hope someone picks it up and you allow them to make it a feature. Because this has some great potential. And it might even be my favorite short film ever.

[@Kolumaic]

Great work. I couldn't stop laughing at the elephants with lasers coming out of their eyes."Sometimes when you time travel you mess some s@#t up." lol

[@sandman589]

BRILLANT!! I love the Seuss style script.

[@ThomasO2]

The Worley brothers do it again! You guys are awesome!!! Love the Ryan Connolly Easter Egg, by the way!

[@marcelobaus]

this was awesome!

[@kristiankoooful]

Love it !

[@reelone134]

It is apparent that there was grain added to this short, because the KZbin compression struggles to handle it, it really degrades the otherwise beautiful image.

[@ssalunke90]

Awesome...

[@PeteSekan]

Very cool!

[@RomeoWhiskey692]

My mind is Doctor Seuss’ed to mush now .
