If you could humor me for just a moment — please put a check mark next to the items on the following list to which you feel positively:
- Joseph Gordon-Levitt
- Channing Tatum
- flowery, arcane language (that’s mostly gibberish)
- sepia tone
- fake mustaches
If you checked off three or more, then I have a treat for you: the SXSW short film Morgan and Destiny’s Eleventeeth Date: The Zeppelin Zoo. Levitt directed and starred alongside G.I. Joe chum Channing Tatum and Lexy Hulme, one of the dancers in the (500) Days of Summer musical sequence. So glue on some facial hair, grab your oldest and thickest thesaurus, and check out the short after the break.
Levitt posted the short to his site hitRECord — where the goal is to foster artistic collaboration among the peoples of the internet — with the following note:
Personettes and Peoplethings – I present to you the SXSW 2010 version of ‘Morgan and Destiny’s Eleventeeth Date – The Zeppelin Zoo’.
Our man Morgan and his lovebuddy Destiny, along with Mssr. Foodpenguin and that dastardly dip-stick Lionel premiered to two jam-packed houses in Austin. The screenings were met with the lovely love of excited SXSW humanians.
Thanks to everyone who collaborated on Morgan and all of our other RECords in Austin. Its a time I won’t soon forget!

I check positively yes on all.. but the actual video is a disappointment.
Sadly I Agree , it was ambitious but lacked in entertainment value
Bravo! I actually enjoyed it. Exellent use (or mis-use) of language. Cutesy little performances. Original with a capital orig. What's not to like?
I liked it a lot. More than I thought I would, actually.
I thought it was really cool. Certainly better than your average short about a dude walking around just being depressed.
Awesomely written too.
Very Nice, Lovely to look at.
Suess-esque via chaplin. decent
That would have been so much fun to write.
I liked it. I thought the music was similar to that in The Brothers Bloom. I thought the video was very enjoyable.
