ANY

im planning on returning with blue blob movies in a month or so

but ill also be in pre-production for the BIG claymation movie, wich again, shall be released in summer of 2006...im also buying a $500 mic for it..this movie will probably have a $7000 budget as well! o_o

To be honest, i AM tired of doing these movies, "klay world: off the table" was kinda the klimax to the blue klay peope..i mean i will always do it on the side (even if i somehow become famous)...these blue klaymen movies arnt ment to push envelopes, they are just movies that are made to be fun, and funny....no paradies, no cliches, no rip off's, just honest humor..wich is hard to find these days! :D

but that "super awesome" klaymation will have a site in late december i hope

It's pretty simple, Knox is like pop music.
He's tapped into what appeals to the target audience, and mass produces it with minimal effort for a lot of return.
The reason that this pisses off people such as DanAbnormal and I is because we know that there are many more talented, harder working and overall superior clay animators who get nowhere near the recognition he does.

Your models suck. And If I did it I would have put uber flash explosions and frickin' laser beams 'n stuff. I find knox's stuff pretty dull.

If you look at the trailer for his new movie, there are laser beams and explosions.

He'll throw any crappy unfunny script together in 5 minutes, and put it to animation, and exploit his uber-n00b fanbase to get awards.

He doesn't even write scripts. He says 90% of it is improvised. If he just took the time to write scripts for his movies then I think they would be funnier.

I call bullshit on this argument.

Knox isn't here to impress any of you. He started claymation as a simple passtime (or so I gather) using little blue claymen. Over time these figures became his trademark and so he sticks to them. They're easy, quick and effective. Anyone who actually sits down and watches a Knox claymation would know that his movies are focused much more on humor and the seemingly pointless conversations his characters engage in, rather than the claymation itself. Not your kind of humor? That's fine - just don't bitch about it.

You don't have to like them. You don't have to watch them. It's as simple as that.

How exactly is Knox whoring out his own fanbase here or bastardising Newgrounds claymation? He makes claymations because he enjoys doing so - you think he has control over what others will think of them or whether they'll make it to the frontpage? Of course not. People like his work, and hence he became a success.

There's no need for personal attacks toward Knox for doing what he feels to be constructive and/or creative. File your complaints elsewhere.

If you ask me, NG users just think it's cool to hate popular artists for the sole reason that they're popular. Get over it.

Yeah ok.
The point in this arguement is that Knox's work isn't worth half as much as it makes.
Sure he's made a name for himself because people just fall at his knees. Over silly claymation.

if u hadnt been on drugs at that tme, you wouldve known you were once 12 too. ur probobly baggin on 12 yr olds cause 12 yr olds still beat u up. and i dont see u doin any funny klaymations. i see you tryin to insult a master at klaymation. for 1: his movies are actually funnier than most full length movies. 2: i hope you decide to chew on your clay in kindergarden class and get a litre of blue clay lodged in your throat. im tired of you sissys that just piss and moan about how they hate an artist cause hes "not origional" or sum bitchshit like that. GROW UP! i bet if a bully at school made a shitty book report, ya wouldnt tell him off. most of you slimebags are nerds who do nothing but nag on quality artists and play counterstrike all day (note, counterstrike is a good game, but ya gotta do other stuff too! :P). why dont you do sumthing else too? like go outside? shower? or, like what i do, while a flash or a game is loading, lift weights! those viruses slowing down your computer can be helpful somtimes:D another thing: look at knoxs profile and you can see he makes like 1.8 BBS posts as day! now that is a fan devotion. he takes time out of his scedule to help fellow NG users with there problems! some of you guys need to learn respect! oh, and BTW, i happen to be a 12 yr old. and who gives a shit? not me!

I re-watched Not Your Friend Anymore and Glass of Water today. All of us know that Knox doesn't have the best characters, but the humor in his movies are what draws me in. I can actually say that I laughed out loud several times in his movies. Also, it's not like he makes us pay to see these movies. We watch them for free and he takes the time to do these so we're entertained, but all we do is bitch and complain.
