Unoriginal, Unfunny, Uninspired, and Uninteresting
It wasn't funny, the visuals were crappy, and the style is a complete ripoff (and an overused and old one at that). It saddens me that these kinds of submissions are given so much positive reinforcement.
Next time, rely less on physical humor and vulgarity, put more effort into the visuals, and please, please, please, use an original style (or at least not something not as dead as the Awesome movies).
Better luck next time.
Very Overrated
The animation is sporadic and sloppy, the characters unoriginal, the visuals completely typical, the lip syncing off or downright looped, and the jokes comprised of childish gags and internet memes. This movie truly epitomizes the worst aspects of NG culture. Probably the ONLY way I could see this being worse is that if it were a sprite movie. For at least drawing your own characters (well, most of them weren't really YOUR characters... I should say "at least drawing other peoples' characters"), I suppose I can give ya a point. Beyond that, though, this movie really doesn't deserve anything close to the props its getting. The jokes are the kinds of things I wrote when I was 11; the animation was sloppy (like Metal Gear Awesome 1, but after it stopped being an original gag); the originally is completely inexistent.
I'ma enjoy the onslaught of "uselessness" this review will get, though. I love seeing people too immature to respect a differing opinion. ;D
Please do something original next time. I hope your next project goes better than this one. Good luck to ya.
Fantastic.
I loved it, Pillow, as I do with nearly all your work.
The characters felt very alive and expressive. The use of video in the background really gave it an immersing feel. Animation was great. It was simply fun to watch.
Well done, my friend. I wish I had that kind of motivation. :0
I'd vote ten...
But I need to punish you for no cameo. >8(
Where are you these days?
It was funny up until the last parts.
The style has really developed, and the visual/audible humor is quite funny.
You could probably add shading and shadowing to your badly drawn creatures while still maintaining the style. It'd probably make them look more purposefully bad than accidentally.
The biggest flaw for me was the end. Portal's old news by now, and it felt cheesy.
Anyhoo, keep up the style. It's pretty funny.
Seemed like a pretty average movie to me.
The animation was very minimal (even for tweens, which don't have to be simple), and the concept gets boring pretty fast. It's established that he is excited about the game. And... that's the movie. Narratively and visually, it's just dull and gives off an "elementary" feel. I don't get why this movie is so highly-rated.
To clarify; there's nothing inherently wrong with making a movie with low detail or purpose. I just don't think such should be so positively reinforced. If you want a high score, you should earn it.
Suggestions: make more actually happen in your movie, use easing on your tweens, add detail, polish your lip syncing, start with a more interesting premise (and/or finish).
You're right, man. When I first submitted the movie it got a score of 3.70. At the time I thought it was a respectable score due to the fact that I only spent a week on it. Half the time I rushed through production just to make the deadline. (That's a terrible way to design, I know) However, once the movie was featured on the front page, the score went up. I honestly don't believe I deserved such a high score, but then again I can't control how the users vote.
Thank you for the review. Your advise has been very helpful.
The submission seemed fine...
... until MetalDart's part came. To be blunt, that ruined the movie for me. The animation, the plot, the art just... oof.
Funny stuff.
Most of your drawings and animation were quite nice, though there were spots that lacked shading, your lip syncing was a tad sloppy sometimes, and the lack of blinking or movement while talking made some characters seem a bit static.
Your style has a bit of a Kricfalusi streak in it, though that's definitely not a bad thing.
Part of what I didn't like what the video conversion. The compression left noticeable artifacts, and it seemed rather unnecessary.
I could also tell that the unicorn crapping was a bit out of place palette-wise because it was recycled. Heh.
Anyhoo, the humor was good. It gets a lot funnier in the later parts if you ask me. In particular, the "forest fire scene" was quite hilarious.
Some of your audio clips had noticeably noisy quality. I don't know if that's because of the mp3 to video to mp3 compression, but it could be worked on.
Also, using that part of Jungle Boogie was a great choice for an end card for a comedy.
But, yes, it was a good movie. Keep it up.
You should be on TV.
The Cheetos comment was one of the funniest things I've heard in a Flash movie. Well done.
The only thing that bothered me was how you said that Celsius was colder than Fahrenheit... are you sure you didn't mean Kelvin?
A Great Prequel
This one was great; probably at least as much as the first. You went back to character mannerisms and irony for your humor, and I'm glad you did. The toon was really funny.
Visuals were good, as usual. There were a couple spots lacking easing, but we've been over that.
Well done, you productive, talented bastard.
