Reluctantly, I have reloaded this video as well. The music, once again, is by myself, but, instead of being based off of Gary Numan, many times I would "borrow" ideas from Terminator 2: Judgment Day (fortunately stuff never sold in the official soundtrack, though, so, copyright-wise, I should be fine). Here's the link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0PA9petG-sEnjoy! ;D

Not bad but I must critique:
Waternoose did say CRIMINALS. Not the singular 'criminal'.
The fact is Waternoose didn't know who had the kid at the time- he had no way of knowing. It's more or less a fact that he simply didn't CARE if he set up Randall, as long as he got off scot free. It could have been anyone who had the kid, it's just that in all honesty Waternoose didn't care if it was Randall or Sulley and Mike- as long as he got away with it himself. Waternoose is not someone you can rely on.
Plus... I'd leave out the sneeze thing- one sneeze doesn't really equate to overall stock proof of illness after all. Seems a bit reaching really. I think the edgy attitude/how it seems incredibly unlikely he'd have been hired in that state, is enough there.
Also- the minimum wage is from the handbook right? (might want to include that it is from there, or else people will get confused because it is never stated in the movie).
Also I'd leave out the thing about Randall 'not boasting', there was some boastfulness really. But that's not enough to make him EVIL after all. Plus the fact that Mike and Sulley are showing off isn't really valid to what your video is trying to convey however in my opinion. You should only use characters to draw parallels perhaps.
I also repeat- it's probably best to use words like "It seems most likely that..." and other such phrases throughout the WHOLE video.
This IS an interpreatation remember- just pretty damn more likely than him being PURE evil.
Example: EXPLAIN the lizard boy comment, how it seems to be like monkey boy, and that this among some other things strongly SUGGESTS that Mike has a bogoted attitude.
Plus instead of saying he is immediately 'an orphan' say that it seems very likely that Randall does not have a family support system, or at least no family really wqorth talking about because of the evidence you have given.
Plus with regards the scream extractor, yes it is good to state that Boo was a guinea pig... but it is also an idea to state it would make NO LOGICAL SENSE for the scream extractor to be built with the specific purpose of HURTING humans kids- they are their resource, so hurting/killing human children is NOT in Randall's best interests either- deaths would also mean something to him, at least from a purely practical perspective. Waternoose as well.
Also you could show how Boo gets scared of Sulley just like with Randall perhaps- she runs and cries, thus exploding the myth that he 'must' have done something horrible to her beyond the normal scarer-scaree relationship.
Also perhaps state that the monster world has trials, as stated by Mike, that banishment seems to be greatly feared as a punishment, and thus with such a legal system it wouldn't make much sense at all if the exile had been legal.
Plus you could touch a bit on character viewpoints- basically Randall has little way of knowing before the exile scene anyway, that Sulley even cares for Boo at all let alone on the extreme level he does. He probably doesn't have a clue about that, and might think they want her plus her door- the indications that he is HER scarer, as evidence against him to authorities.
Sorry, I know I'm being a pain. XD.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure I could do two of those things you suggested: if I emphasized throughout that it's just an interpretation, most people who watch it probably won't listen (Sorry ) As for the minimum wage thing, I only heard that from you guys; I personally only have the movie as a resource. I've been lurking here for a long time, and what I wrote in my video consists of the highlights of what I had presumed everyone had agreed on. Same goes for the "boasting" and sneezing. On top of that, in relation to changes I'm 100% willing to do if you REALLY want them, my computer's broken and is getting repaired, so, unfortunately, all I can do for now is delete the video, which I'm actually UNwilling to do what with what we're trying to do at all. Similarly, you're making your own videos, right? Keeping in mind everyone DOES have different viewpoints, maybe you could mention the details I DON'T include in your own videos. Nonetheless, I'll consider the other suggestions when I get my computer back. Course, that'll mean I may have to start the music from scratch all over again.

My video might FINALLY be gaining popularity! ;D I have gotten four comments from three individual people in 24 hours, and now, upon them adding the video to their favorites, my views are more frequent now!
Is this great or what!?

Oh, I agree, that this is definately good news! It seems as though that more attention, more I've noticed than past I think, is finally reaching to the hidden Randall fans, and to people who have thought that he was evil. People are listening, and no doubt because of the great effort of the campaign running and other related material from people on here! Heck, I'm feeling rather excited about this piece of news!!! I don't know whether I can say I'm over reacting too soon, but heck, like I mentioned before, it seems to be an increasingly popular subject ;D!
