Hey there my man,
Checked out your site and films. I think the thing that stuck out the most for me was how hard it was for your friends to take their acting seriously but that's ok it looked like it was all in fun. I usually would persuade someone to not go to film school and use the money instead to make their first film. Here I think you could use your film school experience to learn more about cinematic control, pacing and how better to block your shots and the #1 reason and usually the only reason someone should go is networking.
You ask if you should keep making movies. I ask you this. Do you enjoy it? Is it something that burns deep within you? It's not up to me or anyone else to tell you which road to take. If you you want to make movies then make movies no matter what anyone says. Practice though, and I mean practice not just by shooting some funny film but by trying out new techniques, lighting styles everything you can think of. You don't need people do this either.
Good luck buddy I have your site bookedmark so I will be expecting to see you get better and better.
MV
Oh yeah....you have a slow server maybe coding your movies as wmvs might help some. Movs are great when you have very good to excellent footage but since these were done with a consumer cam I suggest wmv. Someone else might be able to tell you better on that it's just my opinion.
