Chuck's New Tux!

"Bad rating"

submission: Chuck's New Tux!
date: June 13, 2008

Please change the "mild violence" rating to something more appropriate.

I liked the animation but the ending was too realistic to be funny.

Grand Theft Awesome

"5 stars (out of 10)"

date: June 13, 2008

There's a difference between parody and plain old idea theft. I thought this leaned more toward theft. For one, your title doesn't suggest parody or tribute-- it sounds like it IS one of Egoraptor's flashes. And two, there's nothing "tribute" about the flash itself. You copy Egoraptor so closely that it just feels like you were trying to be him.

The animation itself was funny. I think the biggest problem was that everything really lagged in some parts..either make things faster and keep each scene constantly flowing from one to the next, or just chop some out and make it shorter. I didn't think the jokes had enough punch to support the length.

The huge amounts of spurting blood was really fun and probably my favorite part.

Watch Out Obama

"Kind of grating"

submission: Watch Out Obama
date: June 8, 2008

Hilary's voice was really bad for her character. It didn't match at all and it didn't add to the humor. It was just annoying.

The animation was really clean and nice...

2 - The Story of Khale

"Awesome!"

date: May 9, 2008

I've been waiting for number 2 to come out! I was DEFINITELY surprised in the direction you took this..I don't know, Khale seemed like a very different sort of character in the first one. More of a mystical hero type, and I thought he was an adult. However, I'm not disappointed. The whole tone of this was really nice; it made me HAPPY to watch!

My favorite thing about it was seeing all the unique characters..I don't know how many will show up again but just the variety of character fleshed out the world way more than even the beautiful landscape did.

So just great job. The art is so pleasing to look at and the story to come sounds very entertaining...hah, Khale's (or the narrator's?) little observations are so true.

FBF shortt

"Great art, sloppy movie"

submission: FBF shortt
date: May 7, 2008

It's really good fbf.

But it isn't a movie or even anything with any purpose. You can show these kinds of things just for the artistic sake, but music would have been nice, and it desperately NEEDED A PRELOADER! It was all horribly choppy and I had to restart it several times because it wasn't all loaded. Check out the tutorials section on how to make one. They are easy. You can also just download one and stick it in your movie.

The Eternal Comedy

"Coincidence...or not."

submission: The Eternal Comedy
date: May 5, 2008

Is this an intentional copy of "The Pen is Mightier..." or just a very unfortunate accident? =/ The animation was alright for your first flash but a little slow and over dramatic for what it delivered.

_{Conflict/Union}_

"Am I watching the same flash as the others?"

submission: _{Conflict/Union}_
date: May 5, 2008

Interesting approach to the idea but I'm not a fan of random line animations. There's a point where abstract just becomes childish. Yes, I saw the little characters fighting. It was also choppy.

May 6, 2008

Author's Response:

I fail to see how it is choppy. Oh well.

Abortion 01 - Proper

"Why"

date: May 5, 2008

Why is it called Abortion?

The voices were very good and the animation was really nice to carry the story...

..but maybe I just don't get the punchline. Why was the guy still counting when he came back..was he supposed to have 'gone around the world'? Ah well I liked all of it until the end.

May 5, 2008

Author's Response:

This cartoon was based on a series of audio sketches called "Abortion" by my brother and myself. We call it "Abortion" because, as a joke, we described the ideas we used for the sketches as being fetuses that were aborted from our minds and into the sketch.

And the guy counting had actually gone in a big circle around the town and ended up back where he started. Seeing that he had lost count, he stopped, opened his eyes and promptly did what you're suppose to do in a duel after you've stopped pacing. :p

Job Application

"job application?"

submission: Job Application
date: May 5, 2008

If this is for your job application, don't you want to put your best foot forward in introducing yourself? No offense, but it's not impressive. The drawing is alright but the animation is just some very minor lip syncing and awkward looking tweens. Personally I think it would look better to just put a still drawing on the screen while you do the audio intro... if this is the alternative..

Gun: Episode 1 - Part 1

"Trite, with no depth"

date: May 5, 2008

There isn't a single second of this movie that didn't ooze cliche. Solitary assassin hates killing but does it anyway, is misunderstood by the world, craves beauty, light and freedom but is stuck in some shitty place. Has inner struggle. Come on. =/

I liked the fact that the visuals carried a story. It was rough, but it was really done well... I can tell a lot of effort went into it. This episode definitely set the scene and the mood...

But again that's all it did. It never presented anything to the audience that would make them WANT to follow this character. You didn't give us any of his backstory and unfortunately, the only things you did give us are done so many times before that it just doesn't evoke any empathy. You can still USE everything that you've so far given the character. But he needs much more at this point. Give us a reason to care.

Good luck on episode too and great job for carrying through this flash because the strongest thing about it was the narrative quality... it was very easy to follow along in each shot and know exactly what was happening.

PS. like another reviewer, I also thought the piss shot was unnecessary.

Author's Response:

It's nice to read a "not-so-good" review that actually has some valuable insight and commentary, instead of saying "this sucked."

What you've said is true, and I honestly have never said that Gun is supposed to be some unique story or anything. In fact I stated that outright in the interview I did on the official Gun myspace page (The blog post called "More Information About the Upcoming Episode"). I basically said it's a totally unoriginal idea plotwise, but I'm just using it as a vehicle through which I can express other creative ideas or opinions on things. You should check it out, so you can get a bit more insight into this whole thing, beyond the facade, which I'll readily admit is completely steeped in traditional clichés. There's more behind it though, and I hope you'll take a look and enjoy what you read.

I really appreciate the honesty. It's not for everyone I guess. but thanks for watching anyway. Hopefully you'll enjoy episode 2 more.
