Whew!! So here it is! The incredible sum of the last month working on this one shot. You should see the changes it’s made! I could have saved so much time if had only had all the great ideas in the planning stage.
It always comes back to planning!

yo bro! you are doing so GREAT!
I think all of the moves are great, the only thing I would say is that it feels rushed a couple of places. You have this great moment where he does the slow-mo superman thing in the air when he comes in and that sets this nice tone. I think if you had a little bit longer of a beat after he first tries to pick up the TV, and a little longer of a shaky leg beat (like, one extra little push up) right before he gets squished at the end it would really even everything out.
2 lauren pennies for you. KEEP IT UP! YOU ROCK!
Lol! Fabulous. I love the long hold as he soars into the room. Almost makes you want to see a “Matrix” move around him before the action continues. But overall this just rocks. His personality is really coming through. Well worth the pain, agony and personal time lost that I know you suffered. At least worth it for me because I got the pleasure of enjoying it with no effort whatsoever. 
This is html code, hopefully it works:
So great!!! I think the eye mask is a better choice. Great job on the dive roll and the buckling of his knees, right before SPLAT!
You’re awesome!
