The "world which we see" cut to the Thief's eyes is genius. The "silent comedy" montage goes on a bit long for my taste, but that's your focus in this presentation, I get it ... few too many Calvert shots I think, and an abrupt end. Otherwise good stuff.
Great work!
On paper - It's spelled "Verschoor."
The Brigand crotch hit was never animated (I think this shot was done by the London team for Calvert) ... I'd forgotten about it til you mentioned it. The eye poke was most certainly animated, but cut out. Censorship, bah.
The Zigzag crotch hit is right there ... it's not actually clear what causes it, some kind of chain reaction from One Eye's fist hitting the women, and maybe them hitting Zigzag. This was a Calvert finish of a Williams scene.

Yeah, it was actually a mistake at first. I moved the shot to the wrong place and it went on the video track over the flyover. Then, I had the idea to turn down opacity and it looked cool. I tried to balance out the comedy, epic, and awe within 2 minutes. Personally, I'd rather just show a few minutes worth of clips in complete form (namely the "Dance of the One-Eyes", the Thief being tossed around by the Nurse, and the staircase chase). Or even better, your trailer. The Calvert stuff is regrettable... but I only used stuff that conformed to storyboards or went by quick enough to not stand out. I hate how all the Calvert work in the tower scene omits every other drawing from the pencil animation (it's all in ones in the workprint, right?). But the general story is there. As for sending you something... I'll probably make a different version that's more complete and balanced overall.
Oh, don't look at the IMDB's quotes section for "Arabian Knight" (they still won't change the name). Some idiot added a bunch of quotes... not just from the altered cut, but all from the Miramax-only voices for the Thief and Phido! Geez.
