Is there any chance they will find this amusing?

I left my film analysis essay til the last night and ended up doing it at 4am in the morning. I wrote in some things I probably shouldn't have and I'm worried that they're going to fail me. Here is a segment of what I've written...
-
What I like about this scene is that the sound is never over used. We start off with what can only be described as a sound that gets right inside you and makes you want to stick your finger up your nose and swirl your brain around. It is a screeching sound probably best compared to your mother in law dragging her nails across a blackboard. Often in bursts of no more than a second long, this continually plays through out the scene until Sadako appears through the tv. If I didn't have the classical music knowledge of a two year old I would be able to point out the instruments used in this. Whatever they are, they start off very sinister and sudden as soon as we cut to the shot of Sadako climbing out the tv. It continues and gets more fierce as the scene continues. We also have added sound effects which include a heart beat and a hauling wind. This continues until we reach the shot of Sadakos eye where we reach a final burst of whatever those fine instruments are and the heart beat stops, which I can only assume is to signify Mai's death...or that they finally ran out of budget.

Is there any chance they would see the humour in this and not fail me? I've just suddenly realised what I've done and I don't why it seemed a good idea at the time.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!
I really am *the* smallest person in the world, lol.
report wise should be based something along the lines of "it is thought this is.....etc"
i found it funny
but like LD said: :yes: i agree with that, but lets hope the examiner has a sense of humour anyway...
i'm you'll enjoy your feedback on this one :thumb:
If its indicative of the rest of it im doubtful, although i hope it goes well.
I hope it turns ok for you...where you slighty intoxicated when you wrote it? or stone-cold sober?
The rest of it is more serious...it's just that I suck at essays, I suck at this sort of thing and so I thought I'd try and add a bit of humour. I thought if it's going to suck then why not try and go down in an honourable way, lol.
I am such a nob.
oh well, it passed. He's maybe a little uptight.
i think you spelt n00b wrong :P
